Is there a better living stand-up comedian? Literally everyone involved in comedy says he's number 1 if not in their top 5. While many comedians rely on long drawn out stories, this man is the quintessential joke writer. He goes straight for the punchline and feels jokes are the best form of comedy. People from Bill Burr to Artie Lange to Mark Normand have cited him as the best joke teller on the planet so what are your thoughts?
Dave Attell
Post clips or somehting plz I dunno who this Attell boy is
I dunno, there can't really be a "best" comedian, because all of their success is dependent on their audience at any given performance. Some of them can make a lot of people laugh a lot of the time, but it's so subjective depending on who they're in front of. that being said he's incredible from a writing standpoint, he just write good, concise, funny jokes. I think other comedians praise him for that reason, he's a master of that half of doing standup. The other half is stage presence / performance, he's not really a good "show" like katt williams for instance, who's a much more active performer, as well as a good joke writer.
ONE EYED PIMPS
You must be young. His show use to be on all the time.
yeah okay
youtu.be
I always think of Steven Wright when I think of comedians who use quick punchlines instead of lengthy jokes
His Road Work special is his best work since Skanks for the Memories. Absolutely brilliant.
>Let me get this K-Mart fan on everybody
>Let me get this K-Mart or as we call up north, "black Macy's"
Literally no one else could have wrote this
i love that one and also dave's old porn and dave's underground comedy. found a list of his
my boy alex rogan
Insomniac was peak television
>Eskimos, or as I call them, Snow Mexicans
Dave Attell is definitely the GOAT or one of the tops.
I have no idea who or what this is.
oh look its another neurotic jew comedia! what a breath of fresh air!
>neurotic
Nigga wut
6/10 not impressed honestly
>Is there a better living stand-up comedian?
Andy Dick
and what is impressive?
he doesn't know what he's talking about
youtu.be
bump
Never saw any of his standup but his football movie was hilarious. Also he had a show on mtv that was pretty insane for its time
Lmao
Katt Williams.
Andy Dick is definitely underrated.
>Is there a better living stand-up comedian?
sure. any one that isn't a penniless, terminally-depressed "comedian's comedian"
The funniest people who ever lived are Jewish. That's just the way it is.
He has a net worth of $6 million, is a headliner, and sells out theaters. Cope.
Goddamn that’s good
No he's not. Name a single funny bit he's ever done on stage.
he killed Phil Hartman! I mean he gave his wife pills and she killed him! I mean that was months later but it was Andy's fault!
Louis is barely Jewish
Never really liked him preferred giraldo and even then he wasn’t even that great I guess stand up comedy is kind of boring now that I look at these old videos and shit
>that was months later
It wasn't.
Talk to any black person dude
I miss Insomniac and Wanderlust so much bros. Nothing since has come close.
>Talk to any black person dude
I would never lower myself.
I saw Attell at the Comedy Cellar the only time I've ever been there. My friend and I sat in the front row and he did crowd work with us and then shook our hands after the show. Really cool dude
Fucking love Date Attell, imagine getting a night out with him and Patrice O'Neal. Would be legendary. Dave seems genuinly relaxed and nice. Didn't Amy steal a lot of his jokes as well?
>AHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>DRUNKS AND LOSERS DWARVES WITH LIMPS
>FLOS AND HOES AND ONE EYED PIMPS
>DOWN THE ALLEYWAY THEY CREEP
>THEY'RE ALL YOUR FRIENDS WHEN YOU CAN'T SLEEP
>COME WITH AND YOU WILL SEE
>A LATE NIGHT FREAK SHOW JUBILEE!!
>KICK THE SANDMAN IN HIS SACK
>STAY UP LATE INSOMNIAC!
He gave her cocaine and she was a recovering addict, also cocaine causes psychosis. But yeah he didn't kill Hartman coz that bitch was already plenty crazy herself
>Didn't Amy steal a lot of his jokes as well?
Literally every comedian has stole from him. Not always intentionally but it has happened at one point or another.
It pisses me off that Yas Forums constantly whines about women always getting off the hook but then dogpille on Andy Dick for a crime a woman committed.
>Yas Forums is one person
Absolute comedic genius.
Funnier than anything "Pat's" ever written.
Josh Sneed is better
There's this show airing here which is eerily similar to Attell's Insomniac but misses his charm. Maybe it's because its hosted by a woman.
Literally who?
>doesn't even have a wikipedia page
>only recognizable credit is his appearance on Comedy Central Presents almost 15 years ago
You're kidding right? If he's so good how come I've never heard of him?
Really? his name is always brought up on this board, you must be a newfag.

don't give them yous pls
Why does this fat white guy have a nigger haircut. He's also telling jokes that have been done before. Stomach being used as an armrest, or being so fat you can balance a plane or make it tilt. these are premises that have been done a billion times. Not only that but he delivers his jokes the same way Big Jay Oakerson does. You can see it in his facial expressions and the casualness of how he delivers a line. Seriously, who is this hack?
I saw Dave over the summer and I barely laughed. idk what the fuck happened to him but everything seemed so shitty. maybe he was PC'ing himself because we were all in a college town. not sure if id see him again. first time I saw him 10 years ago it was a riot
Have some more Sneed in your feed

Jokes on you, I'm viewing these incognito. Also this guy sucks ass.
>Dave over the summer and I barely laughed. idk what the fuck happened to him but everything seemed so shitty
He was probably working on new material. This is why I don't see anyone unless I know they are polished. Also gotta take into consideration where you live. Some places just have shitty crowds.
I've always wondered what this guy did exactly to get so many comedians sucking his dick. He's like the only comedian's comedian that actual nobody else likes but comedians. He's just as funny as any kebab salesman trying to be witty but just complaining about played out shit
this was a great thread
and who are you exactly? Are you the all-knowing gatekeeper who separates the greats from the subpar? Who's your favorite comic? How long have you been doing comedy? What's the funniest joke you ever wrote? How much money do you make?
