Whoa. I remember he was just on the David Hasselhoff roast not long ago.

I also remember him from 'Z Rock' on IFC.

Can't say I was familiar with much of his work but I enjoyed what I did see. RIP.

 

Simply awful. I loved his comedy. What a sad day :(

 

Sucks. Very funny guy. RIP.

 

wow

 

well that sucks. rip.

 

he never could cope with the loss of Michael Jackson ...sad it went this far.

 

I've known he's battled addiction even when he was supposedly clean in recent years. And the recent overdose.

But it's still a shock that he's gone.

Dude was one of my favorites.

 

The world is less funny today...albeit a better place.

Zing.

:(

 

Roasts wont be the same without him. RIP.

 

Damn. This is a blow to crappy comedy (as evidenced by the farewells from some of today's worst comedians)

But seriously though, at least he died partying.

 

sucks. he was pretty damn funny and edgy. its a shame he was dumb enough to OD.

 

Dude graduated from Harvard and was a lawyer at a very powerful law firm before becoming a comedian. Very smart guy. Sad that he let it get this far. One of my favorite comedians. Roasts certainly won't be the same without him.

 

Bad comedy is unforgivable. I refuse to live in a world where hacks like Dane Cook, Sarah Silverman and Kyle Cease can succeed.

If you had a chance to travel back in time and make it so these people got a degree and never pursued a career in comedy, wouldn't you?

 

He was one of my favorites, he was on the Paul and Young Ron show not too long ago.

 

I dont like him because he sucks.

 

I'll need to backtrack then. See where I went wrong. Getting these types of reactions can't be good can it?

 

Yeah, you didn't mean to seduce sick. pffffffffffffffft

 

:shifty:

 

We love our train wreck comedians. I first saw him on Colin Quinn's "Tough Crowd", he was funny in a cerebral kinda way. Then the more I saw of him the raunchier and edgier he became (not to mention disheveled). I don't think anyone can say they were surprised but it doesn't sting any less. He was hilarious no matter what brand of comedy he did. RIP, You will be missed.

 

Sad news, one of my favorite comedians for sure. Him and Stanhope.

 

^^ That.

 

that girl is funny, i dont care what you say

 

jesus, i saw giraldo earlier this year on tour. and george carlin in 2008 on his tour. aparently it's a deathwish if i see a comedian live!

on second thought, i'll go check out the dane cook tour when he comes through :shifty:

too soon?

 

Giraldo is, and always will be, one of my all-time favorite comics. He was the thinking man's crude and dirty comic.

 

Apparently Dane Cook isn't popular around here lol

 

Correction: George Carlin was the thinking man's crude and dirty comic.


Why, you mother****er, you!

 

let me know when he actually tells a joke instead of over-acting an otherwise non-funny story. :lol:

 

Dane Cook. Dave Matthews. "The Blair Witch Project".

Three things that are worthless yet achieved success due to mindless sheep afraid not to like them for fear of being labeled "uncool".

 

The Blair Witch Project made me sh*t my pants, no lie.

 

Except it seems the polar opposite with Dane Cook atm. As soon as he became popular people starting hating on him hardcore and people who do like him are labled "uncool." Odd dynamic. He's no comic genius, but I laugh when I listen to him.

 

Not your fault that he doesn't agree with you but you could also be more considerate of other posters. It is a crappy thing to say... So crappy its being deleted.

 

2 out of 3 chief. Don't care what anyone says, dave matthews is great.
