Digg User sachmul 1% - zeroreality, on 10/12/2007, -12/+44Honestly, I think Dane Cook is pretty damn funny. But this video is awesome, cause it really does depict his style. He has a very physical way to tell long (mostly) funny stories/tales, which is understandably why he is a very black or white comedian. Either you like his style or you don't, there really is no middle ground.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -12/+39someone ***** on the coats... WHAT?
- PictureMeRollin, on 10/12/2007, -6/+30I love Dane. I listen to him all the time when I'm driving around in my CT 2004 with rims made of tin foil and ornaments :)
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -12/+35Criticism of my criticism noted. By the way, "proofread" is one word. Thanks for your input, though.
- chicken101, on 10/12/2007, -10/+32Here's what I think of Dane Cook.
Whenever you ask someone (usually 16-25 years old) what their favorite comedian is, they'll either say they like many of them (like Lewis Black, Jerry Seinfeld, Jim gaffigan, Brian Regan etc etc), or they'll immediately say Dane Cook.
I have the suspicion that those people don't really like stand-up comedy, but they just say Dane Cook because it is "cool" to like him. BTW, most of Dane Cook's material is actually stolen from other comedians. I consider him a hack. - NewPunk, on 10/12/2007, -4/+25Those are so his mannerisms... - Cleveland (Family Guy)

http://youtube.com/watch?v=6M9C6a1K0nI - lordsandwich, on 10/12/2007, -14/+33If so, whoever Dane Cook steals his jokes from should be shot.
"Retarded" doesn't even begin to describe lines like, "I call bad relationships *****". - Bokista, on 10/12/2007, -9/+26Dane Cook is a silly bitch.
- KyleRayner, on 10/12/2007, -32/+48Wrong, Dane Cook is a joke-stealing asstackler. And his physical "comedy" is worse.
- jiminoc, on 10/12/2007, -18/+34dane cook sucks, that impersonation nailed it. That's exactly the dumb ***** he does.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+19Not as good as this -> Dane Cook is a genius http://danecookgenius.ytmnd.com/
- CBTF, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16Oh damn. It's uncool to like Dane Cook on digg.
Ah well, I use windows and hate ipods.. may as well toss something else I like into the *****. - pooslinger, on 10/12/2007, -4/+19I fit your description and Dane Cook is not funny. I hope he fades soon.
Mitch Hedberg -- Better comedy, R.I.P.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOnsH29qKzY - ExSlashdotter, on 10/12/2007, -4/+17Man, that sounds like a BAMF!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -33/+46Here's my Dane Cook impression:
"Hi, I'm an completely unfanny hack and it's really baffling as to why I'm so popular."
Do you like it? I'm pretty proud of it. Thanks. - P3ST4, on 10/12/2007, -10/+23Hilarious....definately an overstatement
- Roger, on 10/12/2007, -26/+38I never found Dan Cook that funny.
Isn't he in that new movie "Employee of the Month"? - archzinno, on 10/12/2007, -5/+17Mitch Hedberg will always be the best comedian.

It sounds like you've never seen Chapelle's stand-up. While his show had a lot of race based content, his stand-up had only a small amount. Chapelle's HBO stand-up specials (I believe there are two - a 1/2 hour and full hour) are some of the funniest stand-up I've ever seen.
Chapelle is also *incredible* live. I saw him once, about a year ago, he went on for roughly 3 hours! Every other stand-up I've seen, they do their set, and leave. Chapelle had some jokes that he'd probably done before but most of it was off the cuff. For the last hour or so, it became a kind of dialog between him and audience. He only stopped when he literally couldn't think of anything else to talk about and the audience stopped feeding him topics. I was completely blown away. - P3ST4, on 10/12/2007, -4/+15Video: for those who have no idea...
http://www.veoh.com/videoDetails.html?v=e124099KNSFs8yy - DaysInTheDark, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12The only thing less funny than Dane Cook is MadTV. What a horrible show. It is 99% unfunny.
- afex, on 10/12/2007, -5/+15no, i think he's right....my girlfriend and her group of friends love him.
he's got that bit about 'the person in the group of friends that everyone hates, and if you dont know who it is then you're that person' and crap....chicks love that stuff. - tokyomonster, on 10/12/2007, -5/+15The only thing that made Dane Cook funny was outrageous material shouted in an outrageous tone of voice. And that got old quick.
- SwankRock3000, on 10/12/2007, -6/+15There are so many worse comedians than Dane. It's become more popular to dislike Dane than it is to like him now. Like all the people who were all over "the SuFi", "Get the jelly, *****" and "Someone ***** on the coats" last year and now ***** on the people who are championing "A:F6" and his newer material.
One of the things I like about Dane is that he's always throwing out new material. It might not always be gold, but it's entertaining.Think about it: He put out a double CD last year, and then had a full HBO special this year, and repeated extremely little of his act. It seemed like Jerry Seinfeld had the same hour of material his entire stand-up career. Countless stand-ups do the same.
If you want to ***** on someone, ***** on Carlos "Tired old racial stereotype followed by self-important rant about how if you don't find him funny, you're stuck up" Mencia. - Morca007, on 10/12/2007, -9/+17That was a perfect illustration of almost everything I hate about Dane Cooks routine, he just forgot the whole "Screaming the punchline twenty times until someone pity laughs" part.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Dave Chappelle is funny as hell!
- 500freestyle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7That makes me laugh. And I still think Dane Cook is funny.
- Stonedonkey, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Except it misses his peculiar enunciation tics and the scratchiness of his voice. The tempo of the delivery is there, but not the voice. This impersonator has spent too much time watching and not enough time listening, I think. He should check out a Dane CD and stop apparently relying on footage for inspiration.
- osbjmg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8I think he's funny and I only listen to the audio...
- osbjmg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7not funny
Dane Cook is cool with me, his delivery is key. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -8/+13Why would women find Dane Cook funny?
- Roger, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9ATHF shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as Dane Cook or Family Guy.
Once you "get" ATHF you'll see its brilliant in all its stupidity. - hppyfngy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8I've seen one Dane Cook video on HBO. Sort of like a train wreck, I couldn't look away.
He's not so much a comedian. He seems like an actor playing the part of a comedian in a one man show. Some of his observations were spot on funny, but personally I don't give a crap about his disgusting sex life, (real or imagined,) which was about the last 1/4 of the show. That's where he completely lost me.
Don't worry though, he'll soon be a distant memory. - portis, on 10/12/2007, -4/+9Just in case you guys are wondering where this clip is from, it's from the last MadTV episode. You can torrent it if you want.
- voyage34, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Agreed.
"I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just gonna ask where they're going and hook up with them later."
-Mitch Hedberg - chubbymidget, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Hedberg was great:
I like rice when I'm hungry and want 2000 of something.
Alcoholism is a disease, but it's the only one you can get yelled at for having. Goddamn it Otto, you are an alcoholic. Goddamn it Otto, you have Lupis... one of those two doesn't sound right.
http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Mitch_Hedberg - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -7/+11I completely agree with you. Family Guy = unfunny Simpsons rip-off for brain dead kids.
- arkitect, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8Do you ever take it to "The Wall" or the BK lounge?
- orlyfactor, on 10/12/2007, -11/+15Dane Cook is the most unfunny person I have ever seen. I even watched his special on HBO HIGH AS A KITE and I still didn't crack even a smile. If this is the new face of comedy, bring back Dave Chappelle or something, he's like 2000x more funny than this POS.
- rstarr, on 10/12/2007, -11/+15Totally agree. Dane is funny. He's not the funniest, he's not unlaughable, but he is funny. This guy, not funny. Yes, he acted like Dane and used his mannerisms....but why is that funny? He's no Hedberg, Black, Fraciso, or Ferrara, but he is funny. People get all anti-Dane because he's so popular, just like everything that gets as such, but he's funny. This video...not funny.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Carlos Mencia? You mean Ned Holness, right? The fake ass stand up comic with a show on Comedy Central who steals jokes left and right.
- TomDammit, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7I like Dane Cook and all but I'd take Mitch Hedberg any day of the week.
Edit: Looks like archzinno beat me to it. - caselogic, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5oh digg nation. you are usually so predictable(this includes myself):
Daily Show / Colbert Report (or anything else on comedy central) = digg
Wii =digg
Democrats =digg
Republicans =bury
I could go on....
But I didn't expect this from you guys. I applaud you guys for realizing how lame he has become. I was a fan of Dane and I have even seen him at the Comedy Store here in Los Angeles but his over exposure, everyone of my friends quoting his lines over and over, his very unfunny HBO show and special have made me get over his humor really quick. He is really just an attention whore and I he pulled a "Don't you know who I am!!" To a friend of mine. So, all and all....good job digg.
By the way...Spell check on Firefox 2.0 is the best thing ever. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3My girlfriend is in love with Steve Carell so there may be something to your theory...
People tell me I have a sick and twisted sense of humor. It takes a special type of girl to think of me as perfectly sane. - KingMoses, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7 No, that'd be Bill Maher.
- Crashwithuhk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3He got Danes movement down pat but the difference is Dane's funny and this guy is not.
- jkoski, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I always thought he was constantly trying to do a Ryan Renolds (Van Wilder) impersonation.
Write that down.... - omnithought, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Whew! Thank god I'm not the only one who thinks that Dane Cook is an unfunny asshat.
If he is what comedy has become, then standup truly is dead. -
