Louis C.K. Was before I figured out how much of a cuck he is. He has some hilarious bits.
>I wouldn't molest a kid, but who knows, if I was walking through the woods and saw a dead kid. I don't know I might give it a shot. WHAT IS IT HURTING?
>let me get a fat faggot treat. Oh yeah you're fucking right I want the hot cum on that.
Now it's probably Eddie Murphy.

Bill Burr and Doug Stanhope are the funniest guys in the game right now, so them.

>>70281922
They're two of my favorites ever, Carlin being my #1 all time. Hicks is easily right up there but I'd say Doug Stanhope, Bill Burr, and Jim Jefferies are my favorites today.

Also, Richard Jeni is one of the best ever. He gets relatively little recognition though.
>>
>>70281448
>>70282523

Gaffigan is a favorite of mine too. I like raunchy humor as much as the next guy but there's something cool about a guy who can be funny in a way that anyone from kids to grandparents can enjoy. He's great live too saw his Mr. Universe tour in Orlando.

For one he had a wonderful grasp of the English language and understood the way it's manipulated, how to manipulate it, how to phrase his words for dramatic and comedic effect, how to play with it, and how to have fun with it. If you go back far enough you'll notice how much wordplay he used and how it shaped his comedy.

He had several different "periods," the suit and tie wearing student of Lenny Bruce style in the 60s, the oddball half hippy/half provocative observational style in the 70s, his crazy but sort of gritty 80s, his sort of angry more politically charged (but still extremeyl funny) 90s. Then he went to full blown angry old man territory with YAAD, CAG, and LILW, but reeled it in a bit and became a little more relaxed and light hearted again on his last special. Most people aren't going to like all his comedy, but most will usually find something they enjoy.

He managed to be massively successful and popular in five decades, adapting to the landscape of comedy and forging his own trail the whole way. That's something that very few comedians ever accomplish. He could take very absurd topics for comedy and make something funny out of them. He's just a legend someone I'm very fond of. Even when I didn't agree with him he could still usually make me laugh.

I guess that's why I like him.

Doug Stanhope is based but will probably only get his due recognition posthumously
Hannibal Buress is going from strength to strength, and the Eric Andre show is GOAT
Bill Bailey breaks the mould of 'musical comedians' by finding comedy in the actual musicality rather than spouting milquetoast lyrics over listlessly strummed 4 chords (his Kraftwerk Hokey Cokey nearly made me piss myself)
Dylan Moran is essentially /r9k/ incarnate only with less self-pity and a sense of sophistication

Also, while we're on the subject of the last 2, Black Books was the best sitcom to come out of Britbongistan in the last 20 years
