The same way i havent argued that any comedian mentioned is the best because they are popular. I've stated their success is in a specific field.

And it's not "Basically the same thing", except when you nitpick to whatever point suits your argument.
Me saying mumford and sons suck means i think they play shitty music. It's not the same as saying they are incapable of playing music.
Saying someone who attempts to be funny is not funny is not the same; you can be a tremendously talented musician who makes the worst song ever.

Popularity was never my argument, success in specific field, comparing people "Sucking at fighting" and people who "Aren't funny" while making bad music doesnt mean you're a shitty guitarist.
Dave Navarro[/QUOTE]


Never heard anybody say Dave Navarro made shitty music...Ritual de lo Habitual and Nothing's Shocking are great Albums....along with his line Chili Peppers release One Hot Minute.
I've been playing guitar for 1 years and been around others doing the same for that long and I've never heard him Mentioned as making shitty music....

Yngwie Malmstein, Steve Vai? Now while I'm a big Vai fan, I've heard this two being described as guitar jerkoff artists...I tend I agree. All the talent in the world, and SRV put more feeling into 2 notes than they could in 200.

Edit: have been playin for 15 years...I am 31, lol

I'll add Bill Maher.

I'm a middle of the road moderate but even I can't stand him. The only people who enjoy him are people who share his views cause he preaches the whole....fugging....time

dane cook is fine. if you think he is a bad comedian, you haven't seen a bad comedian. I'm sure most of you only like 6 comedians at a time. And I'm sure you're top 5 is Bill Hicks, Richard Pryor, George Carlin, and two other guys that clear you from having to have an identity.

Lol When I hear somebody down band like Jane's it kinda makes me wonder about their knowledge of music.....:icon_neut
 
Dane Cook (I think he would make an awesome mime since he is very physical and he wouldn't have to talk)
Tracy Morgan (can't make me laugh if I am too busy being annoyed by you)

But their success is based on their sales. (like big macs) On their ability to have people pay for their act. You ranted about:

" professional comedian who makes millions making millions laugh "isnt funny"

There are actually people without musical talent who make it big. What talent did Britney Spears have for example? She couldn't sing. She can't write, can't play an instrument. She was a studio creation. She is in fact incapable of creating good music. Others do it for her. She looks good, that's about it. Yet she is one of the biggest acts of the past 20 years.
 
Oh, and i forgot Carlos Mencia. I can't stand him either.

Daniel Tosh may be popular, and while he's not my favorite comedian, i still think he's hilarious. Eddie Izzard is probably my favorite living comedian though.

She could dance. Pretty talented.
 
I'll get flamed for this but I was never really a fan of Richard Pryor or George Carlin.

I mean they had some funny stuff but I never understood the praise those 2 got.

I think Steven Wright is criminally underrated. Doug Stanhope is my favorite guy now.
 
britney has a very distinct voice for a female pop star. she ain't a virtuoso, but she isn't untalented. she's also been singing since she was a child, and has been on tv for her talents since childhood. she's not some random hot chick created in a studio.

Soulja boy is an example of a terrible rapper who made millions off of embarassing dances, while someone with much more rapping ability like Rakim is poorer.

Soulja Boi can rap and dance though. He's an entertainer.
Is he a good rapper? Hell no. Can he? Yes.

This thread isnt "Who is the least funny out of every comedian in proportion to their success" it's "Who isnt funny", and that's where you fucked up, boo boo.

they paved the way for modern comedy, so go ahead and praise them. but that doesn't mean everyone owes it to them to pretend they're their favorite comedians.

Everything Chappelle has done is clearly more hilarious than Raw.
