47892, i've never heard her, but if folks gotta debate IF you're funny...? Posted by Torez, Tue Apr-25-06 10:35 PM
you're not.
nobody debated whether murphy, pryor, or george carlin were funny, even though they all did really fucked up, sometimes even nasty humor.
you'd be laughing your ass off, thinking 'damn, that's fucked up.'
if you're thinking 'damn that's fucked up, and maybe racist too' and are like..not laughing?
shit ain't funny.
even lesser comedians like c.rock or chappelle - nobody had to debate if those cats were funny.
funny is instantly recongnizable, and generally not up for debate.
and a 'genius' comedian cannot be concocted for long. they tried to do that with stephen wright and dennis miller. both cats are funny, but the true geniuses? hip la writers who sip wheatgrass and do yoga cannot concoct them for the masses.
go to biloxi mississippi and they'll tell you pryor is a genius, just like folks in tokyo and bamas in chile.
this chick? i'm doubting, hard.
