I like lists like this.
It makes me want to zip off to Youtube to see some clips from the people that I’m unfamiliar with. [/quote]

Dave Chappelle is king. amy schumer is just hard to watch…talking about your vagina after the 10th joke gets old, especially when the first one wasnt even funny.
Amy Schumer doesn’t have a funny bone in her body. She seems to think a dirty mouth equals humor. I like the classics like George Carlin and Richard Prior (it’s a shame he fried his brain…if he hadn’t he’d probably have an even more awesome body of work). For more recent stuff I like Jim Gaffigan. I like the fact that he stays away from politics, and even his offensive stuff is pretty good-natured.
She can’t deliver a joke. You can’t force a joke down my throat and tell me it’s a joke.
Yeah, no comic timing, no feel for the crowd. I don’t mind vulgar either, but it can’t be completely gratuitous. There’s gotta be a point to it. She has no points.
Friends… Maria Bamford. Her new special is out on Netflix. I’d love to hear from people new to her work.
