Jim Jeffries.  End of story.  I've never laughed so hard at material I knew I shouldn't find funny in my life.  He's not a shock comedian, he's just offensive. 

His most recent commonwealth DVD is FINALLY being broadcast in the US on Showtime.  Search for "Alcoholocaust"....

For those with HBO, his older one is still sometimes broadcast.  It's called "I Swear to God."

Alcoholocaust is the name of a bar in one of William Gibson's old books...

He's not even funny. He's just some lowbrow piece of shit with a mic in his face who likes to talk like an asshole. He's like a short season Class A farm team compared to a major league legend of blue humor like the late Robert Schimmel. At least Schimmel was intelligent. You can't tell if Jeffries has anymore than a few synapses firing at the same time.

It must seriously be a Beltway thing to like Jim Jeffries because if we really wanted to, we could all still live in our hometowns and hit up the shitty fucking bars that are packed with degenerates like Jeffries and then we'd hate him because tards like him are a dime a dozen.

Well there you have it.  A TMUL rant - I don't think anything qualifies as a more ringing endorsement on this board.

I like the hypocrite comment.  I use it a lot.  But I thought this take on religion was better:

As far as I'm concerned, the devil's being a bigger person...

EDIT: Nevermind, that clip stops at Panda's and cuts off the rest of the segment, and this one picks up about 90 seconds later.
