automatic bzooty 05.19.2010 12:26 AM

i don't really get demetri martin? what i've seen of his whole... schtick... is like 5% humor, 95% "clever build up" to the funny 5%

Genteel Death 05.19.2010 12:27 AM

BTW, it's funny to watch a big live show of his and him constantly criticize whites as if everyone lives in Orange Country, CA and finish every sentence w/ "Dude"... and watch an arena full of middle class white brainlessly, blank faced clap at every insult he spews. I don't get it.... are they actually listening to what he says. What are they thinking dude?

I still think The Office is a masterpiece but his stand-up is awful.

I love The Office as well

Derek 05.19.2010 04:45 AM

That was amazing!

Toilet & Bowels 05.19.2010 06:02 AM

i think the office is not bad, but not especially good either. the only thing of his that's ever made me laugh is his podcast and that's only because of karl pilkington

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 10:15 AM

Have any of you seen Red-Nexican, by some mexican american comedian? terrible.

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 10:16 AM

funniest comedian in th world is Paul Mooney.

atsonicpark 05.19.2010 10:25 AM

The Office, british version, is about a billion times better than The Office, American version.

Only comedians I like are Tom Green, The Mighty Boosh people, and Dennis Leary. Maybe one or two more insane people. The rest aren't funny.

Actually, the best comedian ever is Neil Hamburger.

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 10:28 AM

the light of illumination will shine through you the day you realize Tom Green is an unfunny hack. Your life will radiate joy and serenity once you accept that truth.

atsonicpark 05.19.2010 10:29 AM

No way, the Tom Green Show DVD set and the Freddy Got Fingered DVD are two things I've watched 500 times and still find funny.

Dr. Eugene Felikson 05.19.2010 10:32 AM

Tom Green is brilliant. Seriously. He's just too avant garde for you, Rob.

atsonicpark 05.19.2010 10:34 AM

Seriously, Tom Green and Neil Hamburger are probably the only two comedians worth giving a fuck about. They don't talk about things that are easily relateable, and they probably go over most people's heads.

Rob is probably a Dane Cook nut, I'm too lazy to go through this thread.

atsonicpark 05.19.2010 10:36 AM

I also think Jandek is probably the funniest man alive. That dude is so hilarious it hurts sometimes.

atsonicpark 05.19.2010 10:38 AM

Oh no Joe! That clip doesn't feature a man talking about getting drunk and fucking a fat chick, or making fun of the government! It clearly has no relevance, no place in the "comedy" world!

As for Tom Green being a "hack", Rob, what brilliant comedic innovations have you brought to the table lately? Tom Green's entire act is nothing but brilliance and innovation. I mean, jesus, that man is just something else. Jackass and all that garbage owe him a huge debt, first of all. Second of all, for making Freddy Got Fingered, the most absurd, ridiculous, surreal, and FUNNY movie of the 2000's... I think he definitely should be recognized as the GENIUS that he is.

atsonicpark 05.19.2010 10:41 AM

Tom Green and Neil Hamburger are our generation's Andy Kaufman, the best kind of alternative to the mundane recycled jokes that everyone else steals from each other.

LONGMONT POTION CASTLE is also an absolute comedy genius, too bad no one knows who he is.

Dr. Eugene Felikson 05.19.2010 10:42 AM

Homeboys at home been sayin, "HOW'S HOMEBOY GONNA MAKE SOME BOAT OUTTA SOME BRAINS??"

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 10:52 AM

andy kaufman was not funny either.

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 10:53 AM

Tom Green is carrot top without props.

Well, that's the funniest thing you've ever said!

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 11:03 AM

Paul Mooney would have Tom Green crying in his canadian beer after less than 10 minutes.
Then hopefully he would go kill himself somewhere whre no one would notice, which is anywhere really.

atsonicpark 05.19.2010 12:33 PM

Except he's got a huge, ecstatic fanbase, and has made millions of dollars making brilliantly surreal comedy, but sure Rob.

chicka 05.19.2010 02:45 PM

Chevy Chase, Adam Sandler, David Spade, Chris Tucker.

Green can be very funny but more often than not he simply annoying

what

demonrail666 05.19.2010 02:59 PM

So is Tom Green funny or not?

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 03:12 PM

shock value "jokes" lose their funny nearly instantly.


as far as andy kaufman, I never thought he was funny.
did not like his characters, did not enjoy any of his TV shows, or any of his live stand up footage I have seen. Just not funny to me.

This is the most retarded argument out there. Are you really using it?

Whoops, you never sold 11 billion albums, I guess you can't criticize Nirvana, or Britney, or Whitney Houston, or Black Sabbath.... blah blah blah. I don't even agree with him, but you're still being stupid.

And I fucking hate Jeff Dunham, that one fat boring Mexican, Liza Lampinelli, and Sarah Palin used to be funny but she's really worn her shtick thin.
