Really?

...Really?

...I guess I shouldn't worry. You'll grow out of it.


My favorite comedians include Lewis Black, George Carlin, Mitch Hedberg, Denis Leary, and Richard Pryor.

Surely I jest. :P

I like most stand up, not just particular people. Mostly I just watch, and I always laugh at at least one joke per episode (not because of some strange respect affination I have, just because I always find something funny).

I just don't have a favorite. Carlos Mencia made me laugh once, and that was good enough for me.

I like Dane Cook, Ron White, Dave Chappelle, Chris Tucker, Pablo Francisco (the bit about the Spanish music cracks me up every time, and his impressions are so spot-on!) and probably one other that I can't remember right now. Robin Williams is okay, but it's not really my thing.

btw, the State Theatre in New Brunswick, NJ is getting Chris Tucker on July 1st, and Ron White on September 21st, so if anyone wants to go, just drop me a note. I work in the box office and could possibly get you some really good seats (can't do anything for free, but I can maybe get you in the front)

edit: damnit Chris Tucker is cancelled =( happened 5 minutes ago.

Carlos Mencia is one of the funniest in my book. My mom and stepdad saw Lewis Black when he came to Cleveland, and they said the show was pretty funny. I watched the show on HBO (same routine, just performed in Washington) and I liked it. Dane Cook is obviously on my list, because he's got a lot of funny stuff out.

Chris Rock is also funny, as well as Robin Williams. I remember watching his "live on broadway" performance on HBO with my parents a while back, and my stepdad going red in the face because of how hard he was laughing.
