"Everyone knows the best time to have a baby is when you're a black teenager" is pretty darn funny.

No it's not and it's not even accurate, it's when yo uare a HISPANIC teenager with no money....jeez

I'm sure people who like sarah silverman find dane cook funny too

What do Silverman and Cook have in common?

Awfully hyped but not very funny people....

dane cook is terrible. and he steals jokes.

I don't find Silverman particularly funny but then again I can't really think of a single female comedian that I find amusing.

I've been told margaret cho was funny - i'm not sure i see why - but i'm told she's funny

Whatever. Still, your opinion of her as nonfunny makes more sense than 'people only like her because she's cute.'

Also, you like Grey's Anatomy, so any guilt-by-association arguments on your part are pretty fragile.

I've seen Margaret Cho's act and I can assure you its not funny. Basically, the same one trick pony as the terrible Dat Phan except Cho's jokes alternate between her being Korean and her being fat. Hilarity does not ensue.

I get credit for liking it before it was a 'sensation' and still airing on usndays as a midseason replacement

It's like all those U2 and REM fans who hate the 'new fans' once they became huge

Sarah Silverman's and Dane Cook's acts are essentially polar opposites.

Ok, except that they are both (to me) spectacularly unfunny

last comic standing. wow... I never realized there were so many hacky awful people out there. in the little bit I've been watching they seem to be really skewing towards the gay contestants.

I guess the first 2 seasons were the ones that I'd heard about, this is the first season that I'm actually watching. One of the people who got throuhg to Hollywood wears a gorilla mask and hands and does his bits as a silverback gorilla. yeah.....
