I like most British/Irish stand up Milton Jones, Russell Howard, John Bishop, Mickey Flannigan, Billy Connelly, Greg Davies and many more.
Frankie Boyle absolutely slays me XD Life shouldn't be taken so seriously and he points it out pretty well.

Can't stand American stand up tho I find it's too dry and bland although Louis C.K is funny Very Happy

George Carlin, no other. There, I said it. The man had pacing and a way of saying things that NO OTHER comedian will ever match. Plus he was the first to do so many things. He was hilarious, and no one comes close.

Indeed he was. What about the younger guys obviously influenced by him - Hicks and Doug Stanhope?

George Carlin. Jim Gaffigan. Ron White. Louis CK. Lewis Black, even though I disagree with him on his politics.

Hannibal Buress, John Mulaney and Chelsea Peretti. Also Marc Maron, but he makes me sad too.

You know what's weird? I think we just revealed everything about ourselves.

And I said Marc Maron. I'm going to hell, aren't I?

I really like Robin Williams and Bill Cosby. In fact, I saw Bill Cosby at my university during my senior year and I fell out of my seat during the show.
