I wanna shit on this guy's doorstep.

[Gonzo]

i never watched the bastard and i never will.

[MrChug]

God I wanna cut this German/Lebanese fuck.

[TheSanityAnnex]

I hate Mencia, but at least I got to hear "what the f" again.

[Buddy Holly]

"I swear to god David Blaine you better not put anything else on my body!"

[MrChug]

As a Mexican-American...I hate that a fake Mexican-American is adding to our crime rate.

[E20]

The David Blaine skit was pretty funny. LMAO What does it say on your Drivers License?

[Mister Sinister]

I rather despise Mencia. He's not nearly as funny as he seems to like to think he is.

[Fillmoe]

What The Chopsticks!

[jaespur21]

Carlos Mencia.....FTP. he pretends to be Mexican to make jokes of us n shit. i dont watch his show but when i saw the episode of him stealing cosby shit that was rediculous....Carlos Mencia FTP

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

You want a mexican comedian? Pablo Francisco and George Lopez are the way to go. :tu

[2Blonde]

He's not taking money out of your pocket and he makes people laugh. Comedians steal each others material all the time. What might not be funny coming from the guy who originated it might be freaking hilarious coming from someone else. Geeze, it's s'posed to make you laugh, not get you angry and pissed off. Relax and just enjoy it for what it is, comedy.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Stealing is not funny. :nope

[mrsmaalox]

Stealing or not, he's just not that funny :rolleyes

true.
I do think he's funny. The skit was meant to be funny, and it is funny in and of itself.
But if I were to go on national television and do a hilarious Rick James skit, people would not take kindly to it.
I'm pissed because I work in the comedy field here in Chicago and it's a constant battle with yourself and Thousands of other people. And for someone to take a shortcut and borrow (aka steal) someone else's creative work just sucks.

[maxpower]

Well, the mindfreak/david blaine spoof was not necessarily a ripoff. I've never seen mindfreak so i don't know if he does the same "street magic", blaine does. If so than that could be just as much a ripoff as the spoof is of the other.

But the real ripoff is the cosby link. I know it is a simple observational joke and these two are probably not the first to do it but it is pretty incriminating. You would think, a comedian who actually studies the art would do their best not to repeat the same material as one of the industry icons. I guess he figures, people would think he is not stupid enough to steal from such a well known comedian that they would chalk it up to mere coincidence.

I've heard the same thing too, that comedians steal jokes all the time from each other I just don't know of any examples, so I don't get as pissed off as I used to

[Borosai]

Ned Not Funny.

[Soul_Patch]

Mencia is a fuckin hack. None of his shit is funny, and even funny shit he rips off to try and be funny, is not funny when he does it.


i cant stand this dipshit.

[peewee's lovechild]

It's funny how everyone's so pissed about him stealing shit . . . and yet, he's still making "chingos" of money.

Fuck all that.

His show is still kinda funny. I don't give a shit if he steals jokes or what not. Everyone does it. I don't give a fuck what other comedians say. They all do it.

[Avitus1]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGrTvNzGCZE Thats part two to the David Blaine skit.

Carlos Mencia isn't funny he's just retarded. Good thing for him he has a few writers on that show or it would of been canceled a long time ago.

[Joe Rogan]

Mencia sucks and I guess if you worked in the comedy field you'd understand.

[samikeyp]

Something you don't know about me Joe Rogan...I smoke rock.

Sincerly,
Tyrone Biggums.

[Soul_Patch]

I could careless if he ripped off the pope...he is simply not funny. He tries way to hard, and has no chemistry...its like strained delivery, and it just fails every single time.


nothing funny at all about his jokes, they are fucking stupid...all of them. I thought id like his show, i usually find stupid shit funny, but i cant even stand to watch him.

[=RTM=]

I've heard the same thing too, that comedians steal jokes all the time from each other I just don't know of any examples,

That happens in the local clubs. But once you hit the TV? you can't do it it's like using someones song and not telling them.

The ones who do it at the local clubs can get away with it since the person they stole the joke from hardly finds out since the show is not on TV. Most club owners will not let you make any money if they know you do it. So it maily happens on Open mike night. You can steal jokes you just won't get paid to say them.



so I don't get as pissed off as I used to

How would you like someone at work stealing your idea and taking it to the Boss and getting paid and a promotion as you get fired for sucking at your job? Stealing is stealing whether it's a joke, recipe or Idea. The ones who don't care are the ones who do it.

[MoSpur]

I have never liked Carlos Mencia. He is not funny. Period. His show will end soon.

[Ginofan]

The funny thing is watching how much less funny his skits are then the real thing. The Cosby ripoff was pathetic, and that Mindfreak thing was dumb as hell. The original Blaine spoof was hilarious. WHAT THE F?!?!?

[=RTM=]

It doesn't matter the damage has been done. And there are enough young white kids out there laughing their ass's off to keep him working for years to come.

I kinda don't mind him stealing jokes, thats his business as long as he lays off mine. it's his attitude and denial that gets on my nerves.

I did the Mexican Chopper bit almost 3 years ago he did it last season.

[spurfects #1 fan]

george lopez is whack, always has the same damn show over and over again

[MoSpur]

Well if I were comedian and I someone get rich off of other comedian's material I'd be pissed too.

[MoSpur]

Well if I were comedian and I knew some other comedian was getting rich off of other comedian's material I'd be pissed too.

Word...

[Phenomanul]

Though the two spoofs are alike, they are completely different. Stealing a concept... maybe... but in this case Mencia didn't steal the material and thus the website makes a lame assertion. It's like saying that Pablo Picasso stole his material from Leonardo DaVinci since both painted in oil.

Just revel in the fact that Mencia shames himself with this act considering that the first spoof is a YouTube classic, while his own was rather lame.

BTW I don't like Mencia at all.

[2Blonde]

Being too blonde does not render anyone smart.gtownspur, I think you're in the wrong forum. This is not the "Launch a personal attack because I have nothing useful to say forum"

[Leetonidas]

I'd pay money to watch Joe Rogan kick his fat German ass.

[AlamoSpursFan]

gtownspur, I think you're in the wrong forum. This is not the "Launch a personal attack because I have nothing useful to say forum"

No...that would be the 550Und...nah, never mind...too easy.

:lol

I was thinking the same thing the only thing they had in common was they both made fun of Angel, and they both used cards.....OMG and I too am not a fan of his

[resistanze]

It's sad how the funniest thing associated with Mencia is George Lopez kicking his ass ...

It was so funny how quickly he dropped the Mexican accent when Rogan called him out on stage.

[maxpower]

Actually the youtube version makes fun of david blaine while ned makes "fun" of angel.

[Xolotl]

Actually the youtube version makes fun of david blaine while ned makes "fun" of angel.

I stand corrected on that, which proves the point even more.

[E20]

Speaking of David Blaine and Criss Angel........who is the better magician? I was reading an interview about Angel and the person asked:

Would you ever consider going head-to-head against David Blaine?
And Angel replied: Who? I'm sorry, but I don't know who that is.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

David Blaine would kick Criss Angel's ass. :ihit
