Comedy

Best I saw was Russell Peters in September. Going to see Dane Cook in December, not a big fan, but the wife wants to go and we got free box seats....

One of my current favourites is David Cross. All time? Probably George Carlin or Bill COsby
 
The lady that works in the office next to mine said she went to a comedy club back in the early 70s and Steve Martin was going to do stand up there...this is before he was anywhere near famous.

She said there were only like 6 people in the audience so apparently he walked out on stage and said, screw this let's go bowling...so they did. She said he was really cool to hang out with. People just don't do that kind of stuff anymore.
 
David Cross is definitely awesome. One of my favorite sketches ever is still his "In Search of Goodpussy" narrative.
 
I met bill cosby when I was a little kid. someone at my country club in NY knew him and invited him to play tennis. he signed autographs for all the kids and griped about the lack of black people in the joint :fly:
 
i grew up on steve martin LP's and the headphones..

Same here.

Best comedian I ever saw live would definitely have to be Sam Kinison- sat in the front row at the Roseland Theater in Portland, or whatever the place was called back then, at what had to be his last or one of his last shows before he died. One word story: EPIC
 
My favourite comedian right now is probably Ricky Gervais

Of all time possibly one of the Monty Python guys, or Stephen Fry.

Best and only comedian I've seen live in Mark Thomas, but he's a socialist political comedian so I doubt you'd like him in the slightest.
 
More Mitch Hedberg

I looked in the Guinness book of records; they have a listing in there for Worlds Fastest Man. That fûcker's cocky. I don't recall ever racing him.

A kittin bats around a ball of yarn but what he's really saying is "You know I can't knit motherfûcker." That is one foul mouthed kitten.

I was in my hotel's shower, and I starting washing my hair, then I looked at the bottle, and it turned out I was using body wash. It was like a scene from one of those action movies where they get real close to the object. I was like, "Body wash... BODY WASH?!?" And then I realized my hair was part of my body and I didn't even care.

# This shît is funny, why are you guys not laughing? Well, actually, this is not funny shît. Funny shît would be if you took a shît, and it came out looking like a... sword.

# A waiter came up to me backstage and said, "I got a joke for you." So I said, "What am I supposed to give you in return, a drink?"
 
I think out of all of those, Dave Chappelle's humor appeals to me the most. My face hurts right now from watching those Rick James skits. Nothing funnier. I love the stupid, stupid humor.

George Carlin was a genius with his humor because he mocked every day life, and picked apart the things that we liked and made us think.

Adam Sandler is up there with Dave Chappelle with the stupid humor. It's my weakness. :D
