Stand-Up comedy

[Fapuccino]

Right, let's revive this. Everyone's gonna have different opinions and mine will mainly be non-American, that's just because I'm not exposed to them much.


Like:
Dylan Moran
Bill Bailey
Louis C.K
Reginald D. Hunter
Ricky Gervais (He's grown on me)

HATE:
Lee Evans
Russel Howard

If you like Louis C.K. you would prob love George Carlin. The father of "go fuck yourself" humour. Also, Ricky Gervais has got to tone it down on the God shit. I hate religion as much as the next guy, but he just keeps going on and on about it. I guess he's getting to that "get off my lawn you damn kids" age.

 

[Dylan]

I watched Carlin for the first time a few weeks ago. I'll definitely look into more of him.

 

[Fapuccino]

Gotta warn you though his profanity is pretty intense. He's an either you love him or hate him kinda guy.

 

[Dylan]

That really won't be an issue.

Doesn't matter what Ricky Gervais does or say because he'll never be as funny as Karl Pilkington

Gervais is so annoying.

George Carlin

You never watched George Carlin before :O?

He's my favourite, maybe he isn't the funniest, but I still consider him the best to ever do it. Especially cuz US stand up motherfuckers usually suck in my opinion (apart from about 10 other comedians like Chappelle), he stands out pretty much of the Comedy Central type humour everybody has going on.

:closeenough: THE KING

george carlin, treated like a god by insecure atheist kids, who can't say shit to you and just show you his videos.

What are you talking about dude...just because you dislike the politics of religion it doesnt mean youre an atheist. This guy calls out the bullshit and politics of religion, but he doesnt say you shouldnt believe in god etc... that's your personal choice. He just talks about how people use religion/politics for evil.

He criticizes,everyone from liberals to rednecks, environmentalists, non-environmentalist. Hes harshly critical yet possibly the most objective person in the entertainment business.

Many consider him the best stand up comedian of all time.

well I don't consider him the best stand up comedian.

I also said that he is used as an argument by insecure atheists who can't think for themselves. Didn't really blame him.

I fucking love it when my gf can't say shit about mmy beliefs and she just sends his videos like what the fuck

 

[Fapuccino]

I don't understand the "atheist" criticism of him, as he criticizes everyone and everything, but each to his own I guess. You should see his video on the American dream, that's his best bit, and what got me into him.

Well, if she feels that someone else already said it best than why would she say anything?

And excuse me if you feel I'm being rude, but your gf is taking digs at your beliefs? Maybe it's just me, but shouldn't that be a deal breaker?

Expecting a comedian to not poke fun at religion is like expecting an Inter fan like Juve.

deal breaker? what the fucks that even supposed to mean, the fuck do i look like to you?

the second part was supposed to be a dig at wera right?


also its not that he said it best, he just says god *random bullshit* and makes an awkward face with a random voice. All atheists worship him and use him wherever they feel insecure about their beliefs, makes them think they are smarter more complicated


also for me dave chappelle is the GOAT , he doesn't take digs at god or anything, because dude is smart enough to make jokes about other things.

Why would an atheist be insecure about their believes? If they thought there was any chance of there being a god they're surely be agnostic

and why do I even need to explain that. Clearly it's something important to you as you wouldn't be making comments about it "not being smart" for a comedian to make jokes about god. If some girl disagrees with something you fundamentally disagree with, so much so that she is sending you Carlin videos, why do you put up with it?

Like, I wouldn't put up with some chick I was dating playing Nickelback or Usher in my car. I'm not trying to compare religious beliefs with music, but it's something I care about.

Atheists like to say all sort of bullshit to make them feel smarter, at least the atheists I know. Didn't mean insecure in their beliefs.. but I guess you could say that too..

 

[Shaun]

Well clearly she doesn't love everything about you otherwise she wouldn't taking jibes at you for what you believe in

and could you have written that post in a way that makes you seem any more douche like?

/cue you replying about me being a virgin or being unable to get laid or something

 

[Pimpin]

reading it again dunno what the fuck was I thinking, trying to be funny I guess

Look man it makes things more interesting, she is agnostic I am muslim and it gets interesting, I laugh at her and she can't say shit except for showing me funny things or posts about muslims blowing themselves up , its all fun though

 

[Shaun]

Okay, that's fair enough. I was just curious. Having someone around to keep you on your toes can often be a good thing anyway.
