How come bad comedians (George Carlin, Bill Hicks, Louis CK) always want to soap box and tell you their opinions while good comedians (Dave Chappelle, Mitch Hedberg, Norm Macdonald) don't?
Carlin and CK are good
Obviously because they have an when's to push because they're either posted to our they're self-righteous fags.

>bad
I dont like his standup but pound for pound he's one of the best living comedians. Unless you're a stanhope fag like myself but for the sake of argument lets not take taste into account.
And humor is subjective, stop nitpicking.
Hedberg was amazing though. First time I heard the "I went to the store to buy a candleholder, they didn't have one so I bought a CAKE" my head almost came off

what did he mean by this?
I haven't seen a ton of CK material but in what I saw he never really soapboxed.

Not really. Especially CK who's comedy comes off as Sesame Street for adults

When you run out of material, you just commentate. Some comedians stick with the latter.
They are trying to copy Lenny Bruce, who for some reason is loved by comics.

I fucked up my post with Swype abd now I'm laughing.
If you don't think carlin and CK are good you need to watch more comedy. They may not be your style but they know/knew what they're doing, the timing, the creation of a joke/story. The very large majority of comedians are awful and make me cringe, you just like a detain style.
