Most of the comedians I love have a Libertarian vibe. Not Moral Majority Conservative by any means (they're never funny). Definitely anti-government though.

Just a regular guy chillin on the street drinking and smoking. A day later I sat in studio for an Opie and Anthony show. Pretty epic NYC trip. |

Maybe evolution played a key role.
Women screen for a sense of humor because it's closely tied to intelligence. Whilst men look for a woman that laughs at their jokes. Perchance. |

I stopped watching and/or listening to comedians years ago....that's when they turned "comedy" into being "woke" and/or turning into lesbians and/or sour bitches.
So, years ago, I was a fan of Lisa Lampanelli, Margaret Cho, Wanda Sykes, the Queens of Comedy (Sommore, Mo'Nique)...and some others. |

I saw a clip of a lesbian comic playing guitar and singing about being too liberal for Texas but too conservative for Oregon, she also did a great bit about subaru outbacks (which I drive). I do not remember her name, of course.

There are no funny female comedians. They all only ever tell "jokes" about their period, being whores, lesbians, or absolutely shitting all over men.

One of my oldest and best friend from childhood is a stand up comedian. He came to Boise about 10 years ago and his schtick didn't work there. He was pretty unfunny, dude is funny as hell when we are just sitting around the table or campfire.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By denverdan: I also drank beers and smoked cigarettes on the street with Dave Attell that night. That was pretty fun. Attell is a funny, funny dude. Insomniac was one of the best travel shows ever. On female comedians, Madigan, Bamford and such are funny. There are a decent number of funny women comedians, but they also tend not to make a lifestyle of neurotic and some are just around for a while and then quit. Elaine Boosler was funny in the 80s and early 90s, no idea if she's still around. |

Generally not a big stand-up fan, but I was on a road trip one night and was flipping XM channels. Hit the comedy channel where they were playing a bit from this Canadian chick. Not sure if it was because it was just a nice respite from sheer boredom of driving at night, but she had me in tears.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By TxRabbitBane: Stand up comedy is dead as fried chicken. None of them (male or female) is nearly as funny as stand ups were 25-30+ years ago. That industry is dead. Everything is angsty and race-based, and it’s just not funny. Hardest I ever laughed at a female comedian live was probably Marsha Warfield. She was drunk as hell, but definitely on a roll that night. Believe it or not, Ellen Degeneres wasn’t bad on stage either, early in her career (she got pretty lame after a while though). I used to watch a lot of standup back in the day, and was lucky enough to see a lot of good (and bad) comedy. You know nothing about comedy apparently. |

I'm a pretty funny dude IRL and I enjoy making myself and people around me laugh but there's no way I could construct pre-written bits and make a crowd of people who expect me to make them laugh laugh. The funny shit I say in a BS conversation would make me look like a fucking psycho in front of a crowd of random people waiting to laugh. |

Kind of a Southern church lady persona. I agree with Rita Rudner. She was a bit dry, but funnier than a lot of male comedians. Comedy isn't what it used to be. I watched the Joan Rivers roast from 2009, the only funny lines came from Joan and her daughter. The whole cancel culture crap killed it. Comedians have to be careful what they say or they'll get attacked. Maybe not right away, but at some point. What happened to Kevin Hart hosting the Academy Awards was a symptom of the decline. Over a decade ago I heard comedians were hesitant to perform on college campuses because of backlash from jokes. |
