I forgot to mention Dara O'Briain before. Reckon him one of the best comedians around almost present time. Very funny chap, in my opinion. Love 'his Mock the Week' show on the BBC also..

Well, like Dara explained, that's not the truth (the stereotyping) of course.. or my opinion for that matter.. about the Americans, the French or the Dutch/Angolian/whatever there..

Oinky doinky..

Um, wrote ¼ of an essay about how I feel some of you here (but that goes for e.g. WP too) focus way too much on the negative shite in life.. and, blah, how some seem to forget to point their noses towards the more positive/nicer/funnier things around 'at times' too..

.. but..

Another clip of Lee Mack maybe? Well, he makes me laugh.

Bill Connolly is great.

I am a massive lefty so my comedy tastes lean that direction.  If you are a lefty like me you will love Lewis Black and David Cross.  Bill Maher's older stuff is also excellent, last 2 or 3 have been of a lesser quality.

Sorry.. if 'I' insulted anyone with my previous posted youtube vids here. Do not really compute but.. ja, it gave me some insight about I² as well..

Well, maybe this chap might hurt some feelings too.. dunno.. but he's able to mock himself here. Not taking himself too seriously.. which I consider very healthy.

Jon Richardson..

I'm surprised Frankie Boyle isn't more popular round these parts if he's not already been mentioned.

Got the chance to once see him live in the Saenger Theater in New Orleans.
