Patrice, like almost every stand up, was uneducated and uninformed. Most comics have a higher than average ability to read people or situations, which makes it seem as though they have a deeper insight into the way the world works.
Think about every comic that was on OandA ask yourself if you believe that any of them besides Colin, Carlin or maybe Di Paolo have finished reading more than 5 non fiction books. They are/were the kind of people who form an opinion from a few tweets and part of a youtube video. That's why the blithering Bob bit was so funny.
I'm pretty sure there's more Ozzy/KISS/UFC books than 5, so unless everything Gene Simmons says counts as fiction, then Norton has read more than that.
If he were still alive, I think Patrice would be on info wars. They love to pretend they don't see race but jump at the chance to put up videos of any black person with crackpot beliefs.
I can imagine all of the "Woke black comedian, Patrice O'neal supports muslim ban" videos we would've gotten.
Patrice would probably be doing Ant's hour on Infowars leaving the melanin-deficient desert eagle-wielding Tunisian dickgirl aficionado with 1 hour more material for his twitter.
Carlin was known for treating comedy like a 9-5 job. He would read and write pretty extensively. And I remember OandA talking about Colin's place being like a hoarder house with books and his own manuscripts piled up everywhere.
I never found him funny or interesting. If he did read he just read shit that reinforced his various biases. Reading doesn't make you intelligent if all you read are books that reinforce your presupposed suppositions.
How is that proof of him only reading shit that reinforced his biases? Because you didn't like it? Do you think everybody had to be a centrist or indecisive?
Naw, just playing around. The only thing I've heard from Carlin was that little memorized thing they played on O&A and his "Why I don't vote" video which made sense to me, as a fellow non-voter/faggot.
Being funny on a podcast earns Nick Mullen $15000 per month. Comedians are always trying to get above comedy. Stand up comedy is dead. It's only been around for 30 years. It's gay. LEAVE IT ALONE.
Notice how, when they "make it" doing something else they still do comedy? Its because they enjoy it, and so does the audience. Live entertainment is still popular. Do you hate bands who play live, too?
Seinfeld, then. Does he need the money so badly that he has to embarass himself by doing such a lame, tired, old, shit method of entertainment? I mean, standing on a stage, telling jokes is SO LAME. Sitting in a studio, telling joke, now THAT is true art. Blow me

Patrice believed that the Illuminati put the burning World Trade Center in the one dollar bill.

He had already done an appearance or two with Alex Jones, if I'm not mistaken.
I love Patrice, I miss him dearly, but he was a bit of a fool.
n/a GayNegroJew69 2017-06-18
He would say some dumb shit but his angle was usually hilarious
n/a TinKnockinMoroccan 2017-06-18
I meant consistently, like the fried chicken hawk.
Can't you picture the guy with the beard or the coal burner passing the feed off to Patrice for a few hours every other tuesday?
n/a MushroomFacedAsshole 2017-06-18
Enjoy 48 minutes of him yammering about 9/11

No way would Patrice be "woke" or "based" he would be pissing off everyone

"If he did read he just read shit that reinforced his various biases."
I'm sure you have sources to back that up.
n/a ManiacalChrisBenoit 2017-06-18
Yeah, the shit that came out of his mouth.

You're making no argument and giving no evidence.
n/a Kindahar 2017-06-18
You didn't think it was funny when he called Vos and Ant "two dumb Yemeni cousins"?
n/a shimshammcgraw 2017-06-18
So instead of reading something to support your opinions, you skipped straight ahead to misinformed dribble?
n/a ManiacalChrisBenoit 2017-06-18
Oh...shit... Just having fun trolling the cult of Carlin.
n/a shimshammcgraw 2017-06-18
I dunno, it seems more like you said that sincerely and now have no explanation.

True. It's also realizing that Jack Nicholson's character in A Few Good Men is the hero not the villain.

Anyone who thinks either of those men were more than two funny guys should be shot, and they'd both agree.
n/a GayNegroJew69 2017-06-18
Patrice when it came to women though was a Philosopher though. The older I've grown the more the things he's said about women made sense
n/a TinKnockinMoroccan 2017-06-18
That you should stop associating with them and have sex with men instead?
n/a Psych555 2017-06-18
No he wasn't. He was a bitter fat man who treated women with contempt as a defense mechanism.
n/a HookerMouth82 2017-06-18
Childhood is thinking that comedians are modern day philosophers. Adulthood is realizing that they're just funny people.
n/a Zenaesthetic 2017-06-18
No way man, don't compare them to us civilians.
n/a schwoogiejoe24 2017-06-18
Way to take a new and interesting stand, dumb fuck.
n/a Zenaesthetic 2017-06-18
Shut the fuck up, regular Joe.
n/a ProudOfYourBoy2 2017-06-18
They're not even funny people, they just decided to try to do some antiquated theatre performances. 99% of stand up just is flat out gay.
n/a HookerMouth82 2017-06-18
Shut up, fag. Nobody asked you.
n/a forcedhammer 2017-06-18
he is quite right though
n/a HookerMouth82 2017-06-18
See above.

I concede defeat
n/a TittyMtnhighway 2017-06-18
Antiquated theater performances? What would be the hip, modern method of getting your comedy out there?
Live music is also bullshit, so is any kind of sports, antiquated bullshit.

Bug acts still do stand up because it's an easy money grab for an hour or two of work.
n/a TittyMtnhighway 2017-06-18
No other reason? Chappelle doesn't have enough money? He's only collecting a paycheck? There's literally zero motive beyond money?
n/a SWIMsfriend 2017-06-18
He didn't have a job for a decade, so maybe
n/a TittyMtnhighway 2017-06-18

Seinfeld hasn't changed his act in almost 15 years. He peaked at 35 and doesn't give a fuck.
n/a TittyMtnhighway 2017-06-18
So....comedians do comedy because?
It's because they enjoy it
n/a TittyMtnhighway 2017-06-18
That loser. Making the most popular sitcom of all time, based off his comedy, pfft. Make a podcast, like a real entertainer

Do you prefer beat poetry? Conceptual dance, homo?
n/a ProudOfYourBoy2 2017-06-18
I prefer to not watch faggots perform an act they've done 1000 times before. Stand up comedy is fucking gayyyyyy.
n/a TheJerkOfAllJerks 2017-06-18
I'll always be a kid, I guess. I don't dislike Colin, but his level of "genius" seems really overrated for me.

Adulthood is not visiting this sub anymore
n/a David_Tosk 2017-06-18
Yes, and still the average age is probably high 30s

I don't ever want to grow up then.
n/a SirWallaceII 2017-06-18
Poor Patrice. I loced gim but the nigga thought steak, egggs and cheese were bad for you and potatoes, water melon and soda were all good. :(
n/a Ramoooone 2017-06-18
Adulthood is realising both are funny but will never be as good as Rich Vos.
n/a forcedhammer 2017-06-18
Real adulthood is confronting those suppressed molestation memories and acknwledging how they shaped your career, life partners, and personality
