I don't like her, don't find her funny. But people retell jokes all the time. I'm writing this on my LG phone which is a spoof of someone else's creation.

How many truly original jokes are there in this day and age? IF you're not telling stories about your life, any joke you come up with has likely been done is some form or fashion before. I fail to see why this is news, and I'd say that for any comedian....
Wow, I mean, yeah there are things that are similar from one to another. This chick outright steals.

That one is just fricking retarded. Some of these are reason for concern, that's not one.

I can't stand to watch anything she is in. Even the news coverage of her stealing jokes annoys me.

One of my good friends is a comic in NYC and has been opening up for her since she won last comic standing. I've had the opportunity to hang out with her on a few occasions and she is most genuine funny chick out there. If anything was stolen it was due to her writers and not her.

You are limited to finding new ideas when writing jokes and a lot of comics use ideas from other comics. It's a common practice among writers. It's shitty if you steal another comedians bit word for word-Amy is not doing this. She is the biggest thing in comedy right now so of course there are gonna be a lot of haters out there for her.

Aren't these three on top of some jokes she supposedly stole from a stand-up comedian that passed away a couple of years back?

She opened for all the people she stole jokes from in this link IIRC. That's not just some coincidence

The jokes are bad, no matter who is telling them. Except for Mulaney.

I doubt she designed the poster. That's just reaching.

Do you have any idea how many producers copy movie posters. This is nothing new.

Music now-a-days sucks too...it is all stolen from earlier "geniuses" and re-(pasteurized, homogonized and harmonized). There is nothing new in the universe.


You should check out a movie called the "Aristocrats" if you want to consider shite eating humor. (Penn Gillette produced)

All of this may be true, and that is fine. However, it really rubs me the wrong way when she goes after that guy on Twitter who made the same joke she makes about herself in every damn skit she has.

Amy Schumer has made a career out of being a "thick" woman who discusses her vagina and her sex life. A guy posts a picture of him and her and says he certainly isn't the first guy to spend the night with her, and she proceeds to call him out on Twitter. That's absurd.

Damn. There's a difference between having the same concept and plagiarism.

And the fact that she plagiarizes and still isn't funny is all the more sad.
