Come on people what about the Dice man?

 

[thewanderer690]

Ron White is hilarious and Foxworthy is ok but Larry the cable guy is just too hick for my liking and that Bill Envall just isnt that funny

Also,
Dave Chappelle
Carlos Mencia
Bob Saget

are hilarious

 

[from zero]

i wonder what chris rocks going to end up doing at the oscars

Probably a bunch of jokes about the difference between black people and white people.
Nothing but freshness and originality from that guy.


You people cannot be serious with those Blue Collar idiots. Jesus.

It's all in your personal taste.... I like Dennis Miller and George Carlin for their intellectual brand of comedy, but I can laugh my ass off at Larry the Cable Guy too. I don't think you can really pick one comedian.

A few I have really liked:
Mitch Hedberg
Jake Johanson
Dave Chapelle
Jerry Seinfeld
Steven Wright

I like comedians that don't go for the obvious joke all the time and really search for original material.
