Whos your favorite comedians?

I have to go with Bill Burr at the moment, Steve huges then Patrice Oneil, Louis ck, Hicks is down the list a touch now probably cause its dated but he was still a funny thinking outside the box type.

Louis CK is my #1, I was lucky enough to see him live in the summer of 2010 just before Louie came out and he blew up, he killed.

Jim Jeffries from Australia is high up there, his most recent special I watched on Netflix last month and had me fucking rolling.

Bill Burr, Jim Norton, Joe Rogan, Bonnie McFarlane, Dan Soder, John Mulaney off the top of my head.

I watched American: The Bill Hicks story a few years back and I definitely have respect for the guy and what he accomplished, I just never found him particularly funny. He was interesting to listen to but I never laughed a whole lot at his stuff.

Yeah Hicks was like shock comedy. Not everyone likes hearing the truth,I thought it was clever how he brought the opposite side of the story to light and made people smile or laugh while educating them on the horrors of politics and the banality of acceptance by thinking about things in only one way.

Yeah, but he also went deep into a lot of conspiracy stuff that I think is just nonsense (JFK assassination, moon landing, Waco, ect) and a lot of psychedelic nonsense. He got a little preachy at times.

Used to love his acid riff about the Copper being a little tiny man in the mirror and the throw away all your albums stuff when talking about drugs. Goat boy was a bit dark. Funny man.
