It's funny how all your picks are American and a list of the top comics was done in your homeland of England and Richard was way down at number ten!! 8-o
I went to Zimbabwe. I know how white people feel in America now; relaxed! Cause when I heard the police car I knew they weren't coming after me!

bingolong,

Are you talking about The Comedians Comedian? I have a feeling it was exclusively English comedians that voted, and stand up in England is not that large, sketch comedy is where it is at right now over here with shows like Little Britain and in the recent past The Fast Show. Most stan up is hidden away on cable. Richard was the highest ranking Stand Up, Woody Allen was no.3 but that was because of his movies. I remember watching the show of the comedians comedian and Jackie Mason spoke for everyone, he said, "if you ask 50 comedians who their favorite stand up is, 9 out of 10 would say Richard Pryor". Pretty accurate.

Also the humour is different (as well as the spelling ;)!). In that survey Peter Cook was voted the No 1 Comedian's comedian because he took satire to a different level, now Peter Cook probably wouldn't make any US list of top comedians....but he still was a fucking funny guy!

Peace gee

robfharris, MurphD

You dudes ROCK, for real!!!!! I was laughing so hard at your posts!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hey Rob, allow me to introduce myself, I am tis2flyyy - meaning just that - FLY 'till the day I die! My friends here on the site call me Big T. I used to be Murph's pimp, but Tamra stole him from my stable. Damn, damn, DAMN! Murph was the BEST by far!!!!

Now, I am trying to see what is up with Bingolong! With a name like that, he gots to make it to be TOP DOGG #1 on my crew.
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Just joking Bingo - you know its all love, baby, Bay, bay!.

But Rob man, you are funny as heck. Are U a comedian?

My next in line favorite comedian is a BLACK WOMAN - who is a QUEEN OF COMEDY and her name is Som'more. Now, she is FUNNY & she is REAL. But she will NEVER get the props as some of the names I have seen in this post. BUT, she will get props from me, I am her #1 fan! One of her coined lines is " You don't know money, like I know Money!"

In one of her sets, she came out - DRESSED TO KILL - to Trina's "Who is the baddest bitch?" and talked about how she wanted her audience to show her more love because she had just got out of jail. She said that when she first got up in there, she was like Tupac, strutting around all bad, saying "Keep your head up". But when the reality that she was actually IN JAIL, set in, she started balling and felt like Ms. Sopia on the Color Purple!!!!

I thought that shiznit was funny as hell!!!!!!

So my props goes to her as one of my all time favorites.

& is goes unsaid TMIC is at the very TOP of my list and will NEVER be replaced. I love you Richard!

tis2flyyy,
Nice to meet you, excuse me for not making direct eye contact but I don't want to be accused of "wreckless eyeballing" by my pimp Jane_Haze... also we're on the internet so I can't see you anyway.
I'm Jane_Haze's bottom man-bitch so I got to come up with her money.
I don't know if you can get Bingo on your team, you'll never catch that kid on the "stroll". He may pull up with Wayne Brady in the passenger seat to collect his money, but he won't be doing no walking, and he may have to choke a bitch... he doesn't like to be violent, he's not a violent person... but yeah he will have to choke.

Comic??????? Nahhh I just make a lot of mistakes and go on stage and talk about them. Not sure if that makes me a comic.

A friend of mine worked with Som'more one week. He knocked on her dressing room door, she told him to come in. When he walked she had her hand down her top adjusting her breasts. He said "I'm sorry, I'll come back later."
Som'more told him... "Baby relax, I'm just down in here breaking up the fight." She does bring it on the stage.
Don't tell Jane_Haze, but I would give Som'more a discount if she ever wanted my man-bitch services. Please don't tell Jane_Haze that... she just got her nails done and mami scratches.
Now that Johnnie's gone, I guess I should start being nice to the cops.

bcddjjsc690,


No baby, Y-O-U, is why this site ROCKS!

With the cool azz Avatar's and sheeeiiiiittt....I be waiting for what you are going to come up with next!

Margaret Cho, huh? To be honest, I have never sat down and watched her....But if you like her, I am going to give it a shot and holla back at your for my rating.

To be honest with you, I am a sexist...yes I SAID THAT, when it comes to certain things. So, just because Margaret is a WOMAN - I am certain she ROCKS!

But I want to say one thing to you - You be TRIPPIN!
