Something's just a...Brian Regan is very funny. <br />Something's just aren't funny. Sometimes people need time to heal before you make fun of a disaster or situation. I mean the Lincoln assassination just barely became funny.

Most of the material was offensive and crude. I like Brian Regan because he takes real life situations and tells them in such a funny way. I can't really relate to comedians who just swear or talk about crude things. UGH!! The kid rock joke was pretty funny though.bethyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05574651959544841391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449255540951766363.post-54914640904466306182011-03-28T09:10:47.806-04:002011-03-28T09:10:47.806-04:00I LOVE LOVE Brian Regan!

Some of his jokes were funny, but some of them were the wrong kind of jokes for a crowd of mostly families in Utah. Sounds like the comedians you guys saw are not going to get very far... the best comedians know what the limits are for jokes. These ones clearly did not!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13167291873163552070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449255540951766363.post-67121372394092261282011-03-28T08:42:43.676-04:002011-03-28T08:42:43.676-04:00I don't mind if comedians make fun of their ow...I don't mind if comedians make fun of their own race...that seems acceptable, but most ridiculing of other races never quite strikes me as funny. And I can take the snarky woman jokes to a point because if a comedian is halfway intelligent some of the stuff is true. <br />DUI - never funny. <br />But I do love comedians. Of course my husband and I never agree on which ones!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10517747321455561159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449255540951766363.post-5471281414299152132011-03-27T23:40:11.959-04:002011-03-27T23:40:11.959-04:00I agree That stuff I do not laugh at b/c it is not...I agree That stuff I do not laugh at b/c it is not funny I do love me some Brian and Gabriel though!!!!

I just wish some of them wouldn't do it in such a mean spirited way. The ones you listed are perfect examples of that.Elizabeth Downiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14985143085882983821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449255540951766363.post-90075420986224355292011-03-27T23:23:01.301-04:002011-03-27T23:23:01.301-04:00Ugh.

There are enough actually funny comedians out there (Brian Regan, Gabriel Iglesias) to show that you don't have to harp on things like the ones you listed to be funny. (I'm not saying those two are perfect, just that their material tends to be funny and usually is appropriate.) I find very few comedians funny, really, because I feel like too many people think that crude/rude=funny and I heartily disagree!! But I like those you listed, too, and a few others. You know what's really not funny? This comment. It's quite dull. But there it is!Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00421409632244031191noreply@blogger.com
