Re: Erick Lindgren v. Dane Cook

I understand the hate at Dane Cook because of the stealing lines stories. That said I find a lot of his stuff hilarious. And the reason is probably mostly because of his style and delivery. You can tell some lame ass joke that's been told millions of times before and if you are funny you can pull it off. He's an energetic crazy son of a bitch a la jim carey etc.

What is the upside of that? It isn't like taking some heckler and ripping him/her a new one (which would be necessary to go on with your routine).

Dane Cook is a huge, unfunny db though, so I hope it is true.
You must be kidding, comedians have bits they work on for these situations, where people either get up and leave or come in early. Hell, I was at Harvey's comedy clubs last night in Portland and the main feature both made fun of a group coming in late and a couple that tried to sneak out with a few minutes left to beat traffic. Those bits, along with the rest of the show, was hilarious.

Fair enough, except when it comes to Dane Cook, who would get the biggest cheer if he decided to kill himself on stage.

Someone at ftp might have taken this quote from early 2009 a bit too seriously. I understand now why we have been FTPed.
