razazteca Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 SO WHO IS THE GREATEST STAND-UP COMEDIAN WHOSE ACT IS BASED ON YELLING RANDOM RANTS?!?!?!?! DENNIS LEARY - HIS GIMMICK IF YOU WILL, IS HIM SMOKING ON STAGE AND SAYING THAT HE IS IRISH ABOUT 39053 TIMES AND SINGING ABOUT HOW MUCH OF AN ASSHOLE HE IS. SAM KENISON - THE FORMER PREACHER WAS FAMOUS FOR SAYING OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! AND HAD THE GREAT HULK HOGAN HAIRCUT/BANDANA LOOK. LOUIS BLACK - DOES COMMENTARY ON THE NEWS TOPICS OF THE DAY. JIM BREUER - STONER WHO THINKS HE IS A METAL ROCKSTAR.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Dennis Leary. No quesiton about it.
Nighthawk Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Jesus, you spelled Sam Kinison wrong. Anyway, he's the answer. He's iconic and funny. Can't beat it.
razazteca Posted March 12, 2005 Author Report Posted March 12, 2005 Did I miss anybody that should fall under "other"? I can't really think of anybody else.
Guest Undertow Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Mitch Hedberg, that's who you are forgetting. Greatest stoner comedian ever. If you haven't heard anything by Mitch, go listen/watch some now.
{''({o..o})''} Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Yeah, because when I think of angry comedians, Mitch Hedberg is the first name on the list... Bill Hicks had some fun angry stuff.
Slayer Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Yeah, because when I think of angry comedians, Mitch Hedberg is the first name on the list... You know who was a really angry comedian? Steven Wright
Guest Vitamin X Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 ^^^ I wouldn't count Jim Breuer as much of a screamer either, but I still find his act hilarious all the same.
Special K Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Funniest angry? Cross. FUCK that FUCKING PAINTING! Angriest funny? Bill Hicks. Sometimes too into himself to make with the comedy. The abyssmal, interminable goat boy shit sort of ruined it for me. Never liked Kinnisen In modicum? Carlin and Rock are both very funny and quite angry. I'll take Cross or Rock. Carlin has had some BAD shows where he lives off his legacy.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 I liked when Bill Hicks dressed in black and performed in bars in the south, where he'd scream in people's faces about how fucking stupid they are and how much he hates them.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 Out of the ones you posted -- gotta go with Sam K. I never thought Leary was that great. Funny, sure, but not great...
Youth N Asia Posted March 12, 2005 Report Posted March 12, 2005 I like Leary as an actor, but I don't care for his stand up. Lewis Black is better than the rest IMO. Sure, Sam was the angriest, but Lewis is the funniest.
razazteca Posted March 12, 2005 Author Report Posted March 12, 2005 Forgot the Diceman. Andrew Dice Clay pretty much used Sam Kinison's material and added a few nursery rhymes.
