Have you ever heard his scottish impression and the golf bit? :lol: :lol: :lol:


"So you going to have one hole?" "Fuck no! EIGHTEEN FUCKING TIMES!"

"Then we put shit in the way to fuck it all up!" "Put a flag on the hole to give you hope!"

:lol: :lol: :lol:


I don't think that would be quite as funny without Robin Williams scottish accent voice. That just makes the bit gold.

Gold Jerry, GOLD! Sorry

Oh this guy. I heard of him. I didn't recognize the name but the face i do. He does really funny chinese accents. My cousin sent me one of his tapes. He was doing a stand up on Just for Laughs or something like that.

So funny. I was in a record store with my friend and they were listening to it over the speakers, and soon we were standing there listening and cracking up with the workers. I bought the CD right there and then.

I hate Dane Cook, he's a fucking hack. Listen to enough Seinfeld, Carlin, Cosby, etc and you'll recognize most jokes pretty quickly. Emo Phillips I gave a shot, but I can't stand how he talks like a retard.

My favourite is Lewis Black. You probably know him from the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, but his stand up is so great.

We have fossils... We win!
-Lewis Black, on creationism


Lewis Black: These guys believe that a 350 billion dollar tax cut will stimulate the economy, and they are full of shit. Because they don't know what stimulates the economy. The economy goes up, it goes down, it goes up, it goes down, it goes up, it goes down, nobody knows why the fuck it happens. And I know this because I took economics, and I'd explain it to yea'... but I flunked that course. Not my fault. They taught it at 8 o'clock in the morning. And there is absolute nothing that you can learn out of one bloodshot eye.


We (Americans) are the only nation that tells the rest of the world on a nearly constant basis, that we are the greatest country on earth. And that...is a little fuckin' obnoxious. And I know it's obnoxious, because if you were in an office, and there was someone who came in every day and said, "I'm the greatest fucker here, and you snivelling shits would die without me...hahahah!!" I guarentee by the end of the week you would of killed him...and eaten him...just to try to posess his power."

I disagree, I still think Dane Cook is awesome. But I've also heard some Lewis Black, and I thought he was pretty good. Nothing amazing though.

Delirious and Raw were the best spectacles of stand up ever. Funniest shit, they blow any other comics outta the water.. although he got lots of his material from Richard Pryor..

I went and saw a comedy show last year that starred Russel Peters and a guy named Jermey Hotz. Both of them were hilarious. When Peters first got on stage he looked out into the crowd, "There's a lot of brown people here tonight...Is Surrey closed?" Surrey is a place in Vancouver with a lot of brown people so that was really funny if you live in Vancouver.

I really like his bit about the Chinese shopkeeper. "You save 50 cent here, and you save 50 cent here, and dat is whole dollar. Then you go to dollar store and you buy yourself something. Buy the [whatever he was buying]. C'mon. Be a man!" I might be able to get that stand-up act to you if you pm me. Maybe...

And I have this comedy album by Dane Cook called Retaliation which is absolutley hilarious. Especially this one thing about a run in with a cashier at Burger King. I also might be able to get that to you.
