ah okay, yeah that's a common complaint with him.

His new stand up looks promising.

Also, his autobiography is quite possibly the greatest book I've ever read and I'm only on chapter six.

For me nobody even comes close to Jerry Sadowitz.

By far the funniest most & abusive comedian I have ever seen. Makes Frankie Boyle look like Michael McIntyre's wimpy brother.

Win. Win. Win.



Ripping the piss out of others is easy. Making it funny is another matter. Being a presumptuous **** on stage does not make a good comedian. Eddie wins.

The Death Star Canteen joke is funny. Also ive never actually seen the Frankie Boyle video before but that made me laugh too.

George Carlin comes in at #28? That's definitely an injustice. Bill Cosby at #74. It's a fairly comprehensive list, but it's definitely in need of some prioritizing.
