    With a bit of luck, his life was ruined forever. Always thinking that just behind some narrow door in all of his favorite bars, men in red woolen shirts are getting incredible kicks from things he'll never know.

    missing deadlines, pissing people off, frustrating myself
    Greg giraldo and dmitri martin are probably the two that haven't been mentioned yet that I thought I'd mention. Just saw the latter and he did all original material that's all up to snuff.

    Not sure if David mitchell's soapbox counts as standup, but I'm obviously gonna plug my man-crush every chance I get. I'd start with his rape and pillage one (don't feel like youtubing, sorry).

    The two that are worth repeating for me are Dave chapelle and Louis ck. Good god they are two hilarious human beings.
    Once upon a time, in some out of the way corner of that universe which is dispersed into numberless twinkling solar systems, there was a star upon which clever beasts invented knowing.

    yeah dave chapelle & louis ck are godstatus comedians...

    john oliver's standup show & jon dore's "funny as hell" have good taste in comics imo. Discovered a few solid acts from there:

    Amy Schumer doing some gold comedy on Funny As Hell (episode 4) - YouTube

    Funny As Hell - Anthony Jeselnik - YouTube

    Hannival Buress - Abs - YouTube

    He's the only dude at the top of the standup world who doesn't get shit on by other comics. Nothing but respect for Louis all around.

    He's got a bunch of specials out now, they're all good. I envy you getting to see them all for the first time.

    jim has a new special. he seems to have become less dark/depressed and have a better thought-out routine. i'm surprised to say, i think he's got better for it.

    Confirmed all of these were great.

    The Aziz one is clearly a step below cos these three are awesome, but it's also easygame worth the $5.

    Funny Comedian Peter Kay One-Liners

    1) I saw a woman wearing a sweatshirt with ‘Guess’ on it. I said Thyroid problem?’

    2) When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bike. Then I realised that The Lord doesn’t work that way, so I stole one and asked him to forgive me.

    3) I’ve often wanted to drown my troubles, but I can’t get my wife to go swimming.

    4) I was doing some decorating, so I got out my step-ladder. I don’t get on with my real ladder.

    5) I went to a restaurant that serves ‘breakfast at any time’. So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance.

    Assuming his stand-up is after the movie "Swingers", he stole this line, too.

    I can't believe I missed that one, Swingers is one of my favourite movies. I was so enraged over the Married with Children steal that I guess I stopped reading the list right there.

    That'd be a good way to make a standup career though. Just pull stuff from old tv shows most have forgotten or pull from small movies that many haven't seen.

    Not standup comedy, but some of Doug Stanhope's internet-pedo-baits on baiting.org are pretty funny and worth a read through.


    Doug Stanhope: Well at least you learned whats important. Now what do you say you fuck my 13 yr old ass!
    wertPoo9: i would love to
    wertPoo9: i just was wondering, how big are tyour tits for being 13?

    Dude that stuff is old. Most of those made up kids would have kids of their own by now. But old forgotten websites is another subject that probably deserves it's own thread (the crap I used to visit back in 2000 thread...)

    Joe Rogan and Ari Shaffir are both rocking (separate) AMAs on reddit at the moment, although Mister Rogan is just leaving it to accumulate questions and then going to try to smash through as many as possible come the california evening.

    al madrigal's "why is the rabbit crying" is pretty funny. Had never seen him off the daily show before, but his standup game is strong.

    Jack Dee's standup has never been anything special, but I'd watch it. Tbf when he started doing it, it probably was fantastic but as I'd seen lots of similar styles before I saw him even though they came after I had already seen it done.

    Lead Balloon is one of the better things I've watched on tv though.

    Sean Lock is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> though. Probably my third favourite.

    Also, I just discovered last night that I have a channel called "Logo", which airs old "Comedy Central Presents" episodes. I watched an old Todd Barry set last night, which was awesome.

    Not to sound like someone out of 2006, but I just bought this on iTunes. Thanks for the recommendation.
