Comedians

[QuickDuck]

Everybody has a favourite comedian and a "most memorable" line they have said.

While picking just one might be like saying "what's your favourite song?", in that you will always think of something else just after, what is your favourite line/joke from your favourite comedian?

For me, it would be Robin Williams from an interview he did on Australian TV a few years ago.

Maybe it was a rehashed line, i don't know, but he was referring to Rugby when he said ....

"How did they invent the scrum? did they stand around and go 'umm bruce, tom, john, I know you have just pummeled this guy to a pulp, but come put your arms round each other and hug. Robert and Pete, come and stick your heads up their bums so they can beat their heads against the other team's'"

... hmm ok in text it does not work as well, but you get the idea

My favorite comedian is me. Laugh bitches.

 

[QuickDuck]

*chuckle* yes Sillyman, i must admitt that you regularly make me laugh... but come on people.. some one must have something they would love to share?

From George Carlin..

"About this time, someone is telling you to get on the plane. "Get on the plane, get on the plane." I say, "Fuck you, I'm getting in the plane! In the plane! Let Evil Knievel get on the plane! I'll be in here with you folks in uniform. There seems to be less wind in here."

I like carlin too,

I have to love the lline about stuff

"when it's yours, it your stuff, but it's someone elses shit"

One of my favorites is a visual comedian from quebec

Michelle Courtmanche or his english billing Micheal Short sleeves.

He does an awesome routine of silent action to a sound track

one of my favorites is an awesome office scene

he sits on stage in a chair and the sound begins of a type wrtiter and he pnatomimes it and eventually little by little more office sounds get added that in the end almost have a musical sound effect to them combined very rythmic and by the end his whole body is flaying to it all, and your mind's eye can seei him doing it all the typewriter, desk wortk, filing everything, its better seen than described.

Cosby still reigns supreme.

I love the chocolate cake sketch.

 

[cybergirly]

What about Howie Mandells Bobby?

Did anybody else see him on the old Arsenio Hall show with Dr. Ruth? I think that was the funniest thing I've ever seen on tv.

 

[QuickDuck]

I love the chocolate cake sketch.

is that the "can we have chocolate cake for breakfast?" one?

 

[ChefChip]

bobby was really funny, but I only saw it once and it was so fast that I could not remember enough but I liked the cartoon show that came from it.

Let's see...

Chris Rock

[Todd-'o'-Vision]

Another Faborite the Yanks will never hear tell of is Rod Beattie and his Wingfield monologues

 

[ChefChip]

is that the "can we have chocolate cake for breakfast?" one?

you got it.

"the child wanted chocolate cake for breakfast. How rediculus. and I looked, and somewhere in my brain I looked and I saw Egss, eggs are in chocolate cake, and wheat, oh goody, and milk, that's nutrition, what do you want? 'chocolate cake' Chocolate cake coming right up...SHOOMPH, sliced it for her."

I'd say anything of Robin Williams. If you ever saw his interview on Bravo's Inside the Acrors Studio you will know what I mean.

Carlin is a close second.

Cosby's line that until he was 10 he thought his name was "godammit" because that's how his father started every conversation with him struck home with me. And the fact that mothers are experts are on pig stys. ("This is the worst pig sty I've ever seen.")

"one day my mum said 'Jesus Christ, look at this mess!', to which i repiled 'but muuuuum, I'm Dammit'. I don;t remember anything else from that day"

 

[Jonnyray]

Carlin rules. My fav is how he hates to be told to have a nice day. What if you;ve had 100 nice days in a row and in the mood for a crappy one?

 

[tenderhearted]

ANYTHING Robin Williams does is comedy at its best!!!

But, there is also Gallagher!!! You gotta love that guy!!!!

 

[IrishWolfhound]

"one day my mum said 'Jesus Christ, look at this mess!', to which i repiled 'but muuuuum, I'm Dammit'. I don;t remember anything else from that day"

That and the: Mothers are always sick AND tired, not just sick. One day mom said "I'm sick" and I said "and tired". I woke up in the middle of the next week.

 

[ChefChip]

close

"one day my mum said 'Jesus Christ, look at this mess!', to which i repiled 'but muuuuum, I'm Dammit'. I don;t remember anything else from that day"

according to the record:

My mother was sick a hundred times a day, just sick and tired, tired always followed sick, the worst beating I got was when my mother just said "I am just sick" and I said "and tired.. I don't remember anything that hppened that day.


The dammit this involved his brother russle, who was named dammit and bill was jesus. HI fatehr yelled at him....

"dammit will you get in here, I said but daaaaaaad, I'm jesus christ.

Say Duck, what do you say we beat the snot out of the kid with the accurate memory?

Dennis Leary is one of my favorites ... he did this one segment about how he wanted just plain coffee .. not maple flavored, not mocha flavored just plain freekin coffee.

I've never laughed so hard.

Funny thing about dennis is that in the Thomas Crown Affair remake, he was trying to be a straight actor (i think), but never quite suceeded.

Probably what added to the appeal of the film actually.

"A-s-s-h-o-l-e" I'm an ass hole, ass hole oheyoeo. I love to park in handicapt spaces, while handycapt people make handicapt faces

Mine is Williams, too, only the bit about John Wayne Bobbitt's penis. He envisioned some crazy scenario where Lorena tossed it out the window into a puddle of toxic waste, and it grew to 50 feet and attained sentience.

"'Where's it headed??!?' 'The Lincoln Tunnel!!' And now it's fucking New York!"

I nearly pissed myself laughing. And since I was in the throes of puberty, anything penis-related was instantly hilarious, anyway.

After bringing up Leary I did a little surfing tonight to find my favorite comedy take ... I thought I might share it for a while.
