He's also kind of dumb too, though. His "right-wing" shtick relies so heavily on referencing obscure conservative conspiracies that when his lines don't immediately hit because people don't know what the fuck he's talking about, he gets uncomfortable and categorizes them as an other and proceeds to clam up.
Nah. If you're talking a purely mathematical who seems the most miserable vis a vis their comedic talent, the first answer may be CQ. But that would be wrong. The real answer is Stanhope. He's hilarious, insightful, honest and he's slowly killing himself with booze and cigarettes because he knows that's better than the alternative.
It's because misery is a pre-requisite of great stand-up. That's why people say that comedians get less funny if they get married/have kids. They're just happy, and happiness doesn't breed brilliance.

Robin Williams isn't working though, I haven't seen him in anything new for over a year now.

You know, I just started watching The Crazy Ones on Netflix, and he was fucking hilarious in it. I can't see why they cancelled it.

I worry about Attell too. There aren't many naturally funny standups.
I bitch about this PC culture we have right now, but FOCK man, it hits Attell harder than pretty much any other standup I can think of.

Stanhope, Artie Lange, Attell. And these guys are my favorites. Miserable fucks make the best comics. Especially if you're a miserable fuck too.

Agreed 👍

Louis' not that miserable anymore. That's partly why his comedy is going downhill.

Louis masturbates infront of female comics that piece of hipster shit is living the dream.
