the light of illumination will shine through you the day you realize Tom Green is an unfunny hack. Your life will radiate joy and serenity once you accept that truth.

No way, the Tom Green Show DVD set and the Freddy Got Fingered DVD are two things I've watched 500 times and still find funny.

Tom Green is brilliant. Seriously. He's just too avant garde for you, Rob.

atsonicpark 05.19.2010 10:34 AM

Seriously, Tom Green and Neil Hamburger are probably the only two comedians worth giving a fuck about. They don't talk about things that are easily relateable, and they probably go over most people's heads.

Rob is probably a Dane Cook nut, I'm too lazy to go through this thread.

I also think Jandek is probably the funniest man alive. That dude is so hilarious it hurts sometimes.

Oh no Joe! That clip doesn't feature a man talking about getting drunk and fucking a fat chick, or making fun of the government! It clearly has no relevance, no place in the "comedy" world!

As for Tom Green being a "hack", Rob, what brilliant comedic innovations have you brought to the table lately? Tom Green's entire act is nothing but brilliance and innovation. I mean, jesus, that man is just something else. Jackass and all that garbage owe him a huge debt, first of all. Second of all, for making Freddy Got Fingered, the most absurd, ridiculous, surreal, and FUNNY movie of the 2000's... I think he definitely should be recognized as the GENIUS that he is.

Tom Green and Neil Hamburger are our generation's Andy Kaufman, the best kind of alternative to the mundane recycled jokes that everyone else steals from each other.

LONGMONT POTION CASTLE is also an absolute comedy genius, too bad no one knows who he is.

Homeboys at home been sayin, "HOW'S HOMEBOY GONNA MAKE SOME BOAT OUTTA SOME BRAINS??"

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 10:52 AM

andy kaufman was not funny either.

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 10:53 AM

Tom Green is carrot top without props.

Well, that's the funniest thing you've ever said!

Paul Mooney would have Tom Green crying in his canadian beer after less than 10 minutes.
Then hopefully he would go kill himself somewhere whre no one would notice, which is anywhere really.

atsonicpark 05.19.2010 12:33 PM

Except he's got a huge, ecstatic fanbase, and has made millions of dollars making brilliantly surreal comedy, but sure Rob.

Chevy Chase, Adam Sandler, David Spade, Chris Tucker.

Green can be very funny but more often than not he simply annoying

So is Tom Green funny or not?

Rob Instigator 05.19.2010 03:12 PM

shock value "jokes" lose their funny nearly instantly.


as far as andy kaufman, I never thought he was funny.
did not like his characters, did not enjoy any of his TV shows, or any of his live stand up footage I have seen. Just not funny to me.

This is the most retarded argument out there. Are you really using it?

Whoops, you never sold 11 billion albums, I guess you can't criticize Nirvana, or Britney, or Whitney Houston, or Black Sabbath.... blah blah blah. I don't even agree with him, but you're still being stupid.

And I fucking hate Jeff Dunham, that one fat boring Mexican, Liza Lampinelli, and Sarah Palin used to be funny but she's really worn her shtick thin.
