Not a fan of Jefferies.

Hedberg was amazing though. Steven Wright is in my top 3 favorite comedians of all time and he was a big influence on Hedberg.

I am aussie so i pretty much am jeffries, just about anyone from queensland where i grew up has the same sense of humor you get from jim.
But he is not even fit to lace hedbergs boots.

My top 3 are:
Mitch hedberg
Jimmy carr
Bill burr

Lol yeah I get it if you're Aussie. Jefferies certainly isn't bad and he's definitely made me laugh out loud more than a few times but his political stuff can be grating to me even when I agree.

Political comedy in general is just a pet peeve of mine because it always comes across as preachy. Very rarely does it not, and when it doesn't it's because the comedian is clearly not picking a side and it's usually excellent material.

Mine are:

1. Norm MacDonald
2. Steven Wright
3. George Carlin

Bill Burr is definitely one of my favorites. Louis C.K. is up there but I think he's a better filmmaker than comedian (Louie, Horace and Pete, two of my top 3 favorite TV shows of all time along with The Wire).

Jimmy Carr is awesome too. I'm a really big fan of British panel shows, he hosts 8 Out of 10 Cats, but more importantly 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown which is one of my favorites, it's fucking hilarious.

Sadly, there is no replacement for George Carlin.

/e It'll probably be a while before another comic genius like GC comes around. :/

He was really good.

Or Richard Pryor..

Eddie Murphy did two great stand ups.

Richard Pryor in the 1970s complaining about the same shit facing blacks today. Some fucking society we have.

wtf i hate white people now
