    Ali Wong is funny about half the time she’s on Stage and shes a small dirty Asian chick that’s mildly attractive, save for the baby pump because that’s not my shit.

    Jim Jeffries tells some very funny stories sometimes. Not all the time but sometimes. I made the mistake of listening to his podcast one day, he’s a horrible human.

    I was wrong. you don't know shit about boxing.

    After the last few posts on this thread I think I’ll ignore your opinions of comedians

    how bout boxers though ?

    Jim Jeffries had an amazing record. woulda stayed unbeaten if not for that pesky dark skinned man.

    I wasn’t sure if this should go here or in the Peak Guardian thread. I’m not sure that their definition of comedy is the same as mine.

    'Bill Hicks was a bit misogynist' – young comics reassess the standup legend

    'Bill Hicks was a bit misogynist' – young comics reassess the standup legend

    He was the Kurt Cobain of comedy, railing against advertising, politicians, the war on drugs, even waffle waitresses. What do the new generation make of the chain-smoking motormouth?

    People I've never heard of passing judgement on a legend.

    I doubt their comedy is worth shit and based on the fact the Guardian asked them their opinions I’m not going to waste my time watching any to confirm that.

    My favourite comedy sketch of all time. Griff Rhys Jones, Mel Smith, Geoffery McGivern. Written by Arthur Matthews and Graham Lineham long before their Father Ted days.

    @Tim He was at the Enmore Theatre last week. Still funny. Still offensive.

    Saw this on another forum

    When Guy Williams was a child, people laughed at him when he said he wanted to be a comedian. No one is laughing now.

    Count Dankula who literally cannot get a job anywhere else has had his first stand-up gig.

    Good turnout and not a bad first showing at all. The guy is genuinely funny, just needs a bit more confidence. He's certainly got the fanbase to make a go of it.

    I watched a new Jimmy Carr special on Netflix the other night. Some of his stuff is piss funny. I do like the contrast between his appearance, his delivery and demeanor, and what he actually says.

    @mariner4life I find him either hilarious or fucking annoying AF and wanting to punch him (probably about 30/70 respectively)

    I'm like that with lots of comedians - some days I really like Bill Burr and other days his ranting style does my head in.

    I think Russell Peters is one of my favourite of the Netflix comedians (the ones with specials) at the moment.

    The thing that annoys me is that his ability to setup a joke is absolutely fantastic. But when I've seen him live, he doesn't tend to do it as much. Just likes to drop offensive one liners.

    It's filtered here at work, but the bit about Racks Mum is sensational.

    @MajorRage can't find anything about Racks Mum on YT - would it be called something else?
