I found him funny. But when he died like most who die young, he was pushed to a point in which is he overrated. I love one liners and laugh at his stand ups still, but it seems once he died every single college age kid put him up in top 5 list that he just didn't belong in. If he didn't die I think he eventually would have been turned on "all he does is one liners"...its hard to keep a career going with one shtick. Its why outside of the greats comedians have a short window before the public turns on them. His albums were funny but not a listen to it non stop. If you would take little breaks during it then you wouldn't burn out on one liners. But hour 15 is tough to listen to joke after joke even if they are all funny.

I still use the "don't act like you didn't buy that doughnut mitch" though. I just don't think a one liner could even break top 20 as far as acts go.

I don't know. I was pretty obsessed with his stand up before he died. I listened to his albums non stop for months at a time. he was one of the few celebs I was sad about when he died.

This entire joke is money.

221. They say the recipe for Sprite is lemon and lime, but I tried to make it at home. There’s more to it than that.


They left out the punch line on this one and a few others




ETA: 14. I order the club sandwich all the time. And I’m not even a member, man. I don’t know how I get away with it.

This one too

239. I went to a heavy metal concert. The singer yelled out, “How many of you people feel like human beings tonight?” And then he said, “How many of you people feel like animals?” The thing is, everyone cheered after the animals part, but I cheered after the human beings part because I did not know there was a second part to the question.

This was the first joke I ever heard of his.

19. I wrote a script and I gave it to a guy who reads scripts. And he read it and he said he really likes it, but he thinks I need to re-write it. I said “frick that, I’ll just make a copy.”
