Dave Atell is a nice fucking guy

Just saw Attell at the Punchline in Atlanta. Dude fucking killed it. Hilarious the entire show. Afterwards he stayed and shook hands with everyone and exchanged pleasantries. Just thought I'd shed some positive vibes around this septic tank of negativity

I ran into him at a bar once, which was insane, and I drunkenly talked to him for way too long and he was totally cool and humble. The next day my friends gave me so much shit about it, "Remember last night when you basically fellated Dave Attell?" That probably happens to him way too much. He wants to meet girls and instead some shithead comedy fan boy talks his ear off.

Also every comedian is surprisingly tiny in person.

And pretty much every comedian sticks around after the show to talk to fans. Having a brief personal interaction with a person can turn them into a lifelong fan. For instance, George Carlin told pretty much every asshole who asked him for advice to "Keep kicking them in the nuts" and I heard one faggot actually got it tattooed on his arm like it meant something.

It's amazing how I went from thinking he was completely milquetoast to HATING him.

That is so hateable I actually burst out laughing, what a piece of shit.

The way his mushy disloyal cunt face sticks out at the jaw is very attackable.

Is Joe Derosa as much of a faggot as I think he is?

He's more of a faggot than you could possibly comprehend.

That and so much more. He's also not funny at all and would never even BEGIN to kick anyone in the nuts, let alone KEEP kicking them in the nuts. Carlin's material actually challenged convention and pushed boundaries. Joe's material is safe and PC and comfortably fits in with the status quo.

He always gets it approved by his black friends of course.

Joe is delusional to even think he has any friends.

Well how could he face them if it wasn't?

Joe has material?

He's obsessed with a transvestite.

He is the one that would blow Bailey Jay, and let him cum in his mouth.

To each his own, but those are two fucked up dudes.

If that is what he is into, that's cool. I do not judge.

I hate him because he is a wannabe Hollywood unfunny, unloyal hack, not because he dreams and yearns for hot loads in his throat.

Hollywood Bill Burr doesn't even mention him on his podcast anymore. They used to besties.

Bill is full steam ahead on his new life.

I would bash him, but I am not in the mood for the Bill Burr is still funny as a hyper lib auto downvote machine to kick in.

His black friends think he's really cool.

He's funnier than you that's for sure.

If there was any justice in this world, the score of your post would be your T cell count.

See T-Cell level jokes were funnier said by Norton & Cumia, not you parrots.

troll level: adopted

That and, unless the comic is at his home club, their reality is leaving the club and going to an empty hotel room.

And pretty much every comedian sticks around after the show to talk to fans.

Attell goes above and beyond though. He's a comedy legend, yet he'll stick around until almost every fan is gone. He's a sweet little jew

"Nice guy? I don't give a shit. Good father? Fuck you, go home and play with your kids!"

Upvote from me. Have a coffee.

But, coffee's for closers only.

(That was the bit; he closed)

I don't even know what I was going for there. Flew a little too close to the sun.

Pretty much every comedian who isn't playing MSG does this.

Attell is the man though.

Love the Dave Attell.

positive post -> instantly turns into derosa hate

I'm proud of you guys :D

Can verify. I hung with him at the improv on melrose after a show he did, was super nice and invited me and my friends in to eat pizza he had ordered for the comics.

Did you indeed eat the pizza? What comics?

Take your positivity and go fuck yourself

I've met him twice - Jeff Ross and him roasted me in the cellar it was fucking awesome! We have a mutual friend so next time I saw him we bullshitted for a while talked comedy talkrd a little about Ron and fez. The man was nice enough to buy me a beer at the bar upstairs from the cellar and we chilled until the bouncer ended up kicking us out which sucked I was having a good time. Long story short he's a great dude and still as funny as ever. He carriers around one of those newer poloraid cameras and took a picture of me and friends and gave it to me kinda like insomniac days. pic

Apparently lost a good amount of money on Daves Old Porn, which was hilarious but still goes out and does charity events where he makes not much.

Back in the 90s I knew a bunch of people that worked in the porn business. The whole industry is really shady; if Dave Attell signed a contract to buy old porn, he probably got reamed.

Don't go into business with people who fuck other people for a living.

He rules. He buys audience members drinks from the stage, with his own money. Ive never seen anyone do that.

"We haven't had him on in a while Roland is he too big for the show now?", Opie

God dammit I forgot he was here this weekend, now I have to find tickets.

Atell is one of my favorite comics of all time.

The man is hilarious and really cool

when it's time for the next cull, I'll try to put him on a special list or something.

Big fan and I'm sad I always get the vibe from him his destiny is a Patrice giraldo like death

I just bought tickets for Dave Attell at the L.A. Comedy Store in April. I would much rather just see him do stand up - like I did in Portland, Oregon last year. But I will take what I can get.

Mark your calendars Los Angeles people!

Apparently I'm not the only person who bailed on Portland for SoCal

How could you bail on Portland for SoCal? I would do the opposite if I wasn't obligated to be here.

I couldn't agree more.

Portland is great and I'd move back there if it wasn't for family down here in SoCal.

That's a bingo!

Attell was a shithead to me.

I've been to New York twice in my life. The last time I was in town, it was for my job. Due to work, I barely had any time to see the city.

Of all the places to go in New York City, I went to the Comedy Cellar, because I'd heard about it so much on Opie and Anthony. As I was walking up to The Cellar, I have my camera out. Cuz, y'know, I'm a tourist and I've only been to New York twice.

There's a dude smoking a cigarette out front, and just being generally shitty to me. I got the impression that he wasn't fond of tourists.

I buy tickets to the show, turns out the dude that talked to me was Dave Atell. (He was the headliner that night.)

I tried lurking in the back, because I was by myself, and he still made me the butt of a couple of jokes.

The whole thing just left a bad taste in my mouth. (insert gay joke here.) I can understand that superfans are a pain in the ass. But I wasn't being a dick or anything; I was just really excited to see this place that I'd heard so much about all my life. (Have been listening to O&A for sixteen years now.)

He does seem like a very subtly depressed, introverted dude

Don't we all?

"Raised by my parents but later grew up in the streets"

"It doesn't work like that, you're either one or the other!"

That's why I like him though.

my mother always asked lamar to fuck her nice before they went to her bedroom to fix the floorboards.

For some reason I thought he was dead

Whatever.
