[Whisky Dog]

Funny how many people here have slammed comedians for "not telling jokes, just stories." Almost all comedians don't tell jokes. Most of what humans laugh at has nothing to do with funny, laughter is more of a social mechanism that signals approval or interest, or is used when someone feels slightly uncomfortable. Comedians hit those buttons with stories, not jokes.

Youngster.

I about 20 years someone's going to say to you . . . *searches for appropriate pop reference* . . . "Gee, Senator Spears was a singer? Really??"

Would that be the cracked out crazy, please take my kids Spears?

Or the Disney channel teenage knocked up Spears?

I saw Greg Fitzsimons a month or 2 ago and he was very very funny. I don't think he is underrated or overrated though- I think he is properly rated.

You give me a hard time about Tim Allen and then you bring up Bob Saget and Colin Quin?

[possessed]

Dane Cook. I've watched a couple of his specials, didn't find anything funny at all.

I think Tim Allen's male groaning shtick wore out faster than Foxworthy's "you might be a redneck" routine. Both are boring.

I actually like Larry the Cable Guy's lowbrow humor.

Redd Foxx is the GOAT.

[nomanches]

bob saget in full house definitely sucks...but his standup and whole act is far from the squeaky clean full house days

pretty vulgar and funny

definitely underrated.



this is pure gold right here.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Bob Saget is frickin awesome.

[Don Quixote]

Well ... you don't have to be vulgar to be funny. Bob Saget is funny without it.

My personal favorite is Bill Cosby. And Richard Pryor, who WAS vulgar.

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

anything with Monty Python's flying circus

GTFO




"Beckenbauer obviously a bit of a surprise there"

Nietzsche receives a yellow card after claiming that "Confucius has no free will"; Confucius says "Name go in book"

"Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely an a priori adjunct of non-naturalistic ethics, Kant via the categorical imperative is holding that ontologically it exists only in the imagination, and Marx is claiming it was offside."

[Kori Ellis]

Robin Williams

[ShoogarBear]

Would that be the cracked out crazy, please take my kids Spears?

Or the Disney channel teenage knocked up Spears?

Both are Louisiana congressional material.

[ShoogarBear]

Redd Foxx is the GOAT.

Man and a woman were making out at night in the park. After a while, the guy says, "damn, baby, I wish I had a flashlight!". And she says, "me, too, the last five minutes you've been eating grass!"

[Heath Ledger]

Seinfeld without a doubt has the dryest lamest brand of humor i've ever seen. Dane Cook is also lame, hes more silly and stupid than funny.

[debo]

dane cook

[Argiebabe]

I absolutely loooooove Monty pythons!!!!

as for overrated...Sarah Silverman! she is not funny at all

[Thunder Dan]

dane cook

you have to be kidding me. Dane Cook is brilliant

[pickle girl]

Overrated: Jay Mohr

Underrated: surgarbear

[Don Quixote]

Say what you want about Seinfeld's stand-up, but his show was unquestionably one of the greatest of all time.

[Heath Ledger]

Ive played poker with Dane Cook and i still think he sucks..
