nice setup.

oh, and although he has some bad material, most of dane cook's stuff is absolutely hillarious. have you heard the burger king skit? the speak and spell? priceless.

Dane Cook :thumbsdown:

Sorry fanbois, he's got one or two semi-clever bits, but he simply does not have the ability to maintain a constant barrage of humor. Most jokes I've heard start off promising, then kinda move on to easily predictable and not-that-funny trailing-offs.


But, back to the topic at hand, nice setup! Now clean it up and get some sound!

I think he's hilarious personally. Just watched his special last night on HBO or whatever movie channel he was on.

I really like Dane Cook but damn vicious circle was painful to watch. There was about 3 mins total of semi-funny stuff. If his comedy keeps going that way I won't ever listen to him again.

Speaking of Dane Cook, I've tried to get into his work because my gf thinks he is hilarious but I just don't see it. Makes me wonder about the gf too. :p
He's cocky, he yells, and it's white boy comedy.
this guy is 10x better

Some friends and i thought about this once, and decided that you either relate to and somewhat agree with what he's saying, or your lame and borring.(kidding of course, different strokes..) I guess anandtech isn't really a dane cook crowd. I dont think he's cocky either, though he has gotten a little more out there since he first came on the scene, but it's a buisiness, and thats what he sells.

I also agree with this, i think both guys are equally as funny

Dane Cook is meh. I am entertained by him most of the time, but rarely does he make me laugh. But always entertaining at least. This is different from most stand-up comics where I am either laughing or hating them. I think his talents lie in comedic writing moreso than stand-up.
