163282, NEWS FLASH: Carlos Mencia is not the least bit funny
Posted by Tiger Woods, Thu Mar-16-06 12:58 AM
and this is not a hate post.
I've seen more of this guy on Comedy Central in the last week or two than I ever saw any other comedian or show on the channel. If he were slightly funny at all I wouldn't mind, but I cannot laugh at anything he does. I'm lost here.
Maybe he works for free.

163375, America loves him...
Posted by PolarbearToenails, Thu Mar-16-06 12:09 PM
because he tells them how edgy he is a bunch of times, then says something slightly racist, then tells them how edgy they are for laughing at it.
|
163378, what bothers me most about him
Posted by buckshot defunct, Thu Mar-16-06 12:14 PM
Is the pretense that what he's doing is somehow 'dangerous'
Not funny I can handle. No big deal.
But that whole 'WE'RE GONNA GET HATE MAIL FOR THAT ONE!!!' attitude really, really grates on me.

Hahahahahahahaha he said BEANER!
OH SHIT HE SAID IT AGAIN!!!
He's saying what we're all thinking! Assuming that the word "beaner" floats through all of our heads every 20 seconds.
Ned is so EDGY!

163392, I liked his Show, and his first stand up performance on C.C....
Posted by Snow_Flow, Thu Mar-16-06 12:42 PM
but his latest one... no strings attatched, I didn't laugh very much(if at all) until the last ten minutes. I agree we shouldn't be too scared to offend people, but his shit just gets old and repetitive. I also don't like when he brings in the "USA!" "Soldiers Died for us!" aspect where he's like "A soldier is fighting and Dying in Iraq so we can have free speech, I might as well use it!" Fuck otta here with that shit. His first one "Carlos' Rules" was good, I'll make my final judgement when I see the new season of Mind of Mencia.
And another thing, I hate sorta agreeing with everyone Cuz before I saw his latest stand up I was sticking up for him when all my friends said he was weak. Now I feel ashamed.

Posted by Olu, Thu Mar-16-06 01:14 PM
being mildly racist is hilarious these days

163411, It's not racist, it's 'edgy.' He's 'pushing the envelope.'

Its like Comedy Central is working to pass him off as a hispanic Dave but its not working. Plus I think dude is gay.

163455, man I would have thought he'd be off the air by now but I guess
Posted by Ason, Thu Mar-16-06 03:23 PM
it's going well for him
|
163473, he IS kinda funny
Posted by The Money Man, Thu Mar-16-06 04:25 PM
I watched one episode and I was laughing pretty much the whole time.
I love all styles of stand up and sketch comedy.
everybody isn't supposed to be Dave.
carlos has his niche. I don't understand the hate. but whatever I think his show has potential and will be better this new season.
|
163522, he hasnt made me laugh... not even once.
Posted by HighVoltage, Thu Mar-16-06 07:02 PM

163529, He shouldn't be allowed on TV after Joe Rogan ethered him

163945, It was posted on here in December
Posted by Marauder21, Sat Mar-18-06 01:44 AM
He aired him out for stealing jokes and got video of him in the crowd for one of Rogan's performances with Ned trying to imitate him later. George Lopez also brought up the whole joke stealing/he's not really Mexican thing last year too.
|
164243, Joe Rogan's accused every comic in stand up of stealing his jokes
Posted by LiquidDope, Sun Mar-19-06 09:50 AM
He accused Denis Leary of making it big off of one of his old routines, even though Denis is like twice his age or something.
|
164304, doesn't mean it's not true
Posted by Ason, Sun Mar-19-06 03:33 PM
|
164342, no, he accused Leary of stealing a bunch of Bill Hicks's shit
Posted by magilla vanilla, Sun Mar-19-06 06:59 PM

Posted by three_four, Fri Mar-17-06 02:09 PM
except maybe pbt.
and the rest of y'all who hate on mencia, I know y'all secretly watch his show and laugh at least at a few of the jokes.
oh, and who the fuck is Joe Rogan? when has he ever been funny (newsradio aside).

Posted by chinsu, Fri Mar-17-06 11:25 PM
the only thing that makes me laugh about him is when he does the retard voice.
other than that he's pretty lame.
|
164056, I agree he is terrible in that george lopez show
Posted by Ceej, Sat Mar-18-06 02:49 PM
..oh wait
|
164245, OK, so he's the latin Paul Mooney. What's your beef?
Posted by LiquidDope, Sun Mar-19-06 09:53 AM
|
164249, Paul Mooney is a bazillion times funnier.
Posted by Frank Longo, Sun Mar-19-06 10:36 AM
|
164465, That's not necessarily knocking Mencia, though
Posted by LiquidDope, Sun Mar-19-06 11:01 PM
Paul's one of the funniest men alive, period.
|
164298, paul mooney and mencia have nothing in common
Posted by AZ, Sun Mar-19-06 03:24 PM
|
164305, except not being funny
Posted by Ason, Sun Mar-19-06 03:34 PM
|
164466, Actually, you're right.
Posted by LiquidDope, Sun Mar-19-06 11:03 PM
Paul gets people to laugh at him by making fun of anyone and everyone who isn't black. Carlos gets people to laugh at him by making fun of anyone and everyone including his own people.
Paul's like a black version of Don Rickles, except he's actually funny.

Posted by Frank Longo, Mon Mar-20-06 12:47 AM
Don Rickles is DEFINITELY funny and is NOT like Paul Mooney at all.
|
164442, Please don't disrespect Paul Mooney like that. n/m
Posted by DeePhunk, Sun Mar-19-06 10:25 PM
|
164479, Does Mooney remind people how offensive he is after every third joke?

164498, And there we have it.

164347, and i thought i was the only one that didn't like him
Posted by constant, Sun Mar-19-06 07:10 PM
i tried to give him a chance but no dice. even his stand up isn't that funny. Maybe cuz i'm not mexican, but the white people were laughing. But then again they always are.

164405, He's okay every once in a while.

Sometimes I can get a good laugh off his comedy but it's kinda hit or miss usually.
