he's like a cross between chris tucker and mitch hedberg.

I thought he made EXCELLENT use of silence in his act. It takes real balls to pause as long as he often did to build comic tension, especially on your first TV appearance. It's very effective and something you really don't see much of. Mitch Hedberg was great at it too.

He's right.

Mitch fucking Hedberg.
Patton Oswalt, Rodney Carrington, Ron White.
Americans have the best animated comedy shows too, simpsons, futurama, south park, family guy, american dad, king of the hill.

British comedy is very different from American comedy. It usually much more satirical and/or quirky than just sit-com or slapstick - and that's not always better.

The only comedy to rival the brits over the years has been black american comedians and bill hicks

And Mr.Show, and Office Space, and Big Lebowski, Idiocracy, Strangers With Candy, The State, George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Lenny Bruce, Daily Show/Colbert, Zack Galafinakis, The Simpsons, Ren&Stimpy.... we can go on and on and on.

You can list stuff back and forth all day and disagree with what each other person says for fun whether you think it's true or not. So what's the point? Watch:
Mr. Show - definitely not
Idiocracy - see above
Strangers with Candy - see above
George Carlin - HUGE no
Richard Pryor - black comedian, which i listed
Daily show - close but no
Colbert - HUGE no
Now you'll just disagree with me and say those things are fucking great, but some of those make me despair, especially colbert, i can't believe you listed him

I got an ant farm but them 'fellas didn't grow ****. I said "C’mon, what about some celery? You ****ers don’t farm; plus, if I tore your legs off you would look like snowmen."

Sorry, but this is a dupe.
