Apr 2 2008Dane Cook voted 'The Unfunniest Comic' in Boston
Dane Cook was crowned "The Unfunniest Comic" yesterday in his hometown of Boston. On a radio contest, he beat out stiff competition which included Jay Leno, Carlos Mencia, Paula Poundstone and Jeff Foxworthy. One could say he put "the kibosh" on them. Eh? I feel so dirty. Page Six reports:
"We were talking about how people laugh out loud at nonsense and Dane is a good example of that," Toucher told Page Six. "We'd listen to him and at the end of four minutes he'd change subjects, and that was it. We couldn't figure out when the joke was.
"And he's actually hated. People don't hate others they way they do him. At least Foxworthy panders to rednecks. Dane's stories are so weak you wouldn't want to hear them over lunch."
That bastard. Talking about nonsense during a comedy routine. I'll kill him! Right in the face with my laser blasting cock of doom after I drive a tank through his house. And the tank will be manned by every single chick from Smallville in a bikini (Except Chloe.) This'll teach Dane Cook to be more serious with his comedy. Serious as a heart attack - with AIDS.
EDIT: I've just been informed that Chloe is hot now. I, seriously, haven't watched the show in years. Let it not be said I'm not a reasonable man. She can come. But I hope she understands I run a tight ship/tank. Pillow fights mandatory and we break for strip clubs. Semper Fi!

Wow. A large group of people exercising common sense - together. Christ - Gallagher had more comedic talent in his smash-o-matic sledge.

who is he?
10. Matthew - April 2, 2008 10:38 AM
If you listen to his material it basically amounts to a singles ad. His entire act is a ploy to get millions of women to want to screw him.
11. deacon jones - April 2, 2008 10:39 AM
He does truly suck at comedy
12. Janet - April 2, 2008 10:40 AM
#10, that's hilarious.
Bahh, I thought I was the only one in the world who thought he wasn't funny. So glad to see others agree with me.
13. smadgie - April 2, 2008 10:41 AM
Not funny!!?? Anyone that can make me chuckle about 'punching infants' is funny. Maybe you losers need a higher IQ to actually understand his humor.
14. Jimbo - April 2, 2008 10:42 AM
Why only Boston? He should be the unfunniest comic in the entire US..
15. luna - April 2, 2008 10:44 AM

Laughing at a "joke" about punching infants requires a high IQ? Any retard can understand stupid frat boy humor and still not think it's funny.

who is this? looks like a complete dooooooooooche.
18. Guy - April 2, 2008 10:50 AM
No, but hes probably the hottest male comedian (of this time anyway)

I love how the laser wang thing is evolving.
20. Ela - April 2, 2008 10:51 AM
I don't think they got it right.. His BJ joke is actually quite funny.
You don't know the BJ joke?
Now that's sad.
21. brian - April 2, 2008 10:51 AM
DOUG STANHOPE IS THE BEST COMIC SINCE GEORGE CARLIN!!! DANE COOK IS ABOUT AS FUNNY AS A RASH YOU CANT GET RID OF.
22. Auntie Kryst - April 2, 2008 10:54 AM
@13 I wish I had a higher IQ so I could laugh at your stupid comment on even more levels than the three or so I discovered.
Anyway on that Boston radio station's comedy bracket, I would have picked George Wallace.. He's an admired old school, edgy, "relevant" comic, and not in the least bit funny.
23. Randal - April 2, 2008 10:55 AM
Well, far be it from me to compliment a man, but he looks about as fine as a new button! plus he looks well hung like a certain italian stallion!
24. cod - April 2, 2008 10:57 AM
smadgie, you're a moron! It's comedians like Dane Cook who contribute to the dumbing down of this country. He only appeals to idiots like yourself by making you feel like you're finally able to understand a joke that doesn't require the slightest bit of intelligence or general knowledge to figure out. I think you should just get back to jerking off to those Janice Dickinson pictures.
25. havoc - April 2, 2008 10:58 AM
He's actually a pretty good example of what passes for talent these days.....

I'd muder him with my trusty autie's handbag
27. Conor S - April 2, 2008 11:01 AM
Yeah I don't know why Comedy Central even gives this guy the time of day for specials, I've tried to watch his specials and they're really hard to sit through and I'm only talking about the first 10 minutes!
28. Conor S - April 2, 2008 11:04 AM

WTF
30. some guy - April 2, 2008 11:07 AM
I understand where everyone's coming from and I agree that he's pretty bad, but there's no way he's worse than carlos mencia. It's become so popular to loathe dane cook that people are forgetting that there's more than one terrible comedian out there.
31. Adam Sandler - April 2, 2008 11:10 AM
Trees are made of wood. Is this fucker trying to replace me by stating, then explaining what's painfully obvious? 2+2=4. Dane Cook, you're going down like a Hollywood whore.
32. nipolian - April 2, 2008 11:13 AM
The people in Boston finally got something right........Dane Cook is a complete Douchebag. If you want real humor, go rent yourself some Mr. Magoo episodes.

#23. Randal - You need to get laid buddy
You people who think his comedy is "stupid" ... well DUHH !! ... What do you think comedy is ? I fail to see how comedy sould be "intellegent" for christs sake. Get off the fucking research papers and away from your computer once in awhile. ... Intellegent comedy - Chh ... what an oxymoron. Comedy is stupidity at it's finest. It all depends on what a person deems as funny - personally - I've never heard of the dude...how freaking famous or obnoxious can he be? I've never lived in a cave, nor spent an abnormal amount of time at sea on a raft ... so I know I'm no recluse nor hermit
Gawd .... my ballzitch now ..... I gotta go
36. Nikk - April 2, 2008 11:31 AM
Dane Cook is truly the unfunniest comic in the history of humanity. At least Carlos Mencia USED to be funny and Jay Leno tries....but Dane Cook....no....lame ass frat boy shit.
And I swear, if I hear one more slanderous word against Allison Mack (Chloe), I will burn down Superfish HQ. Clearly Fish here doesn't know how stacked and awesome Allison is.

I can't believe I used to be friends with this douche on MySpace.
40. Vince Lombardi - April 2, 2008 11:59 AM
Auntie,
I agree with you on George Wallace. He used to be hilarious, but then when Arthur Bremer shot him and he got paralyzed and left in a wheelchair, his bitter "I used to be a redneck governor but now I just pee in a bag" shtick wasn't very funny. After all, it's called *stand up* comedy.
He hasn't played many gigs since he died, altho I read somewhere that he was going to open for the Winger reunion tour this summer.
41. jesse - April 2, 2008 12:00 PM
Alright.. I guess I'll mark Dane Cook down in the list of people that people hate because all the cool kids do it.
Dane Cook is full of funny shit. I'm not too fond of his acting, or the movies he's been in other than Waiting. But jesus, has anyone that "hates" him even given his first two CDs a listen? My fucking face hurts by the time I'm done.
A really ironic thing is.. he's just like every other comedian or otherwise funny person out there. He has the same formats, just with a different delivery and subject matter. Some of it/Most of it is childish, but shit.. that's what makes him great. Everyone wants to be reminded of the hilariously cliche shit that happened in our childhoods.
Since when is shitting on the coats at a party and blending back in not funny?
42. combustion8 - April 2, 2008 12:07 PM
"Since when is shitting on the coats at a party and blending back in not funny?"

44. Jumpin_J - April 2, 2008 12:09 PM
OMG. So not funny. How he sells out arenas is a complete mystery unless they wheel in people from the old folks home. "Look Henry, he said poop. Those kids are so witty". Will Rodgers would be impressed. Not.

47. Todd Jaspers - April 2, 2008 12:15 PM
combustion8 stole my joke!!! Is that really Dane Cook??
48. jesse - April 2, 2008 12:20 PM
I remember when comedy wasn't something to be picked apart and made into a huge fucking deal.
I really sucks that there are more people out there that have to bash a comedian because he makes too many people laugh. People don't think he deserves the attention he's gotten and people only laugh at him because other people laugh at him. Either that or they think they're too intelligent and mature to get his jokes. Right?
If you're going to be a fucking snob and sit there with your arms crossed and pout while other people around you enjoy a genuinely funny comedian, then so be it. Dane Cook will still be selling out shows across the country. Just like he did at MADISON SQUARE GARDEN WHICH ONLY 3 OTHER PEOPLE HAVE EVER DONE.
Also, he's one of very few comedians that don't include race in his routine. When was the last time you saw that shit?
I'm just sayin...
49. that guy - April 2, 2008 12:23 PM
Hey Jesse (#41) - yes, Dane's got a litlle funny shit - most of it is brian regan's - who does it a whole lot better.
But i have to disagree with you on the acting thing - he was actually very good in 'Dan in Real Life' - a not too funny but still enjoyable movie - it's where his career is going anyway. In the same way that we can thankfully forget the crap Greg Kinnear did before he started getting acting roles, maybe we'll soon be able to forget the unfunny, self-indulgent, pointless, humorless 'stand-up' performances of dane cook, and live with him as a decent actor. That may have been the problem all along - he had an actor's dilemna - he was 'playing' a comedian - he just didn't have good material.
50. that guy - April 2, 2008 12:26 PM
and the fact that he sold out an arena is not an indication of talent - thre's no accounting for people's taste, a good marketing plan (which Dane Cook was BRILLIANT at), and people wanting to jump on a bandwagon.
The Wiggles sell out too.
51. Nick - April 2, 2008 12:27 PM
I can understand why people don't think Dane Cook is funny. It's just not their type of humor. I listen to Dave Attell, Doug Stanhope, Demetri Martin, Nick Swardson, Lewis Black, and a whole bunch of other comedians. I absolutely love stand up comedy. If I want to listen to silly childish humor I pop in one of Dane Cooks first two albums.
People seem to forget that comedy DOESN'T have to be intelligent to be funny. Also that not everyone is going to find the same shit hilarious.
All this is, is a bunch of people jumping on the "I hate Dane Cook" bandwagon cause it's trendy.
You don't have to hate on him just because you don't think he's funny. That's just being an idiot.
52. Groucho - April 2, 2008 12:29 PM
#33, LOL. :D
#50, yeah Cook is a decent actor, just a horribly unfunny "comedian".
53. combustion8 - April 2, 2008 12:31 PM
"genuinely funny comedian"
now that was funny!
btw, only black and hispanic comedians use race jokes, whites arent allowed.
54. Erica. - April 2, 2008 12:32 PM
He is extremely funny in my opinion. I think it depends on your personality as to if you think he's funny or not. People who are serious and who feel the need to out smart people every second of their lives are the people who don't find him funny. Not to mention, he sellls out basically all his shows, as someone else pointed out. So it's obvious many people like him, including me.
Oh and Todd Jaspers- that's stupid as fuck. He's way funny, that shits just stupid.
55. combustion8 - April 2, 2008 12:34 PM
@52
I saw nick swardson last year, sat in the front row, he's one of my favorites.
56. I'd ride him - April 2, 2008 12:38 PM
I don't know... I liked his bit about being nice to the creepy guy at work (Though I'm pretty sure that's the only Dane Cook sketch I've heard). Either way, he's hot and he's in horrible comedy films. That's probably why people hate him. If you're a comedian in a comedy that is in no way funny, people will associate your brand of humor with the crap movie you just starred in. I don't think that's unfair either. He's either desperate to become an actor, or he has no sense of humor.
57. Auntie Kryst - April 2, 2008 12:42 PM
@40 Coach you're right. I forgot about that Wallace. Did you catch his act in front of the University of Alabama? He drew huge crowds, you should have seen the security team.
58. no hes not hot - April 2, 2008 12:43 PM
he has a bad case of douchefaceitis.
59. mamadough - April 2, 2008 12:43 PM
(random thoughts when pondering dane cook)
a douchebag is a douchebag is a buttplug.
look, a dead baby! oh my god, i'm so fucking funny. i'm on dane cook's level now. i'll make millions being a complete and utter twat.
what to hear a story? no not really, shut your fucking mouth!
maybe it's been awhile for a few of you, but frat boy humor isn't funny, it's fucking obnoxious. i'm the loudest, dumbest asshole in the room. good for you dane cook!
60. Vince Lombardi - April 2, 2008 12:45 PM
@58 - Yep. Not a dark face among 'em. Think that meant anything?
61. tp - April 2, 2008 12:48 PM
If you don't think DC is funny, you're just jealous that he's selling out his shows, not to mention is HOT as hell. Obviously he's doing something right! Stop hatin'!
62. JM - April 2, 2008 12:49 PM
I hate to break it to you, but there is no "I hate Dane Cook" bandwagon. Everyone on here is just shocked that there are other people out there that can't fucking stand him. That's not hating, that's hatred. The fact that we are surprised to find other people that don't like him either speaks volumes about his work, or about the masses' lack of taste. I'm not here to judge which one applies, but I have serious doubts as to it being his "talent" as a comedian. The guy tells "this one time at band camp" stories with a "I'm so funny I laugh uncontrollably at my own jokes" twist. That's not talent, it's retarded.
And for the record, I've thought his comedy was lame from day 1.
63. no hes not hot - April 2, 2008 12:52 PM
I dont know whats hotter, the gay lazy spikey haircut, that fat double chin, or those down syndromish eyes... you ladies sure have good taste.
64. Nikk - April 2, 2008 12:58 PM
63 hit the nail on the head.
And for the record, for anyone who says that there aren't white comedians doing race material...I have two words for you: SARAH SILVERMAN.
65. BarelyStearn - April 2, 2008 1:07 PM
DANE COOK BLOWS ON A GLOBAL BASIS - IN FACT, DANE COOK BLOWS INTERGALACTICALLY.
Comedically speaking, I wouldn't p*ss on this guy if he were on fire. He is simply the single most unfunniest douchebag to ever take a stage.
66. BarelyStearn - April 2, 2008 1:13 PM
He's had his HBO crapathon, his handful of crap movies, now it's time for him to take his rightful place next to all the other "crapedians" that are standing around in oblivion waiting to host the next crap NBC Game Show...
67. Setto - April 2, 2008 1:16 PM
Dane Cook did race material at the Comics Come Home V special with Denis Leary and a few others (a show he stole, btw). It was brief, but it was there. Actually it was also the weakest part of his routine.
68. PottyMouth - April 2, 2008 1:21 PM
Tough crowd!!! Pretty sure he's not fat, and pretty sure Sarah Silverman is a waste of space.
69. Grunion - April 2, 2008 1:28 PM
I once downloaded some of his shit to see what the buzz was about and came away thinking ..meh. His delivery gets old fast and his stuff is pretty tame and unoriginal. But what do I know, I grew up listening to Richard Pryor, so it's gonna be a tough sell.
70. Grunion - April 2, 2008 1:32 PM
#62 "If you don't think DC is funny, you're just jealous that he's selling out his shows"
umm I don't have 'shows" so why would I be jealous you fucking moron.
It's official, Dane Cook fans are slow.
71. Iago - April 2, 2008 1:39 PM
Sarah Silverman is not funny. The funniest thing she's ever come up with is the "I'm fucking Matt Damon" song, and - like ALL her material- it was only funny because of the shock value. If Matt Damon hadn't participated, it would've been like all her other sketches: lame. Also, from a racial/ethnic stand point, Sarah Silverman is not white (read: WASP). Since Judaism is an ETHNIC religion, it means that she's ethnically Jewish. Also, female comedians get away with more.
72. g - April 2, 2008 1:40 PM
Everyone has their own opinion of what they think is funny. Settle down, people.
73. toolboy - April 2, 2008 1:51 PM
Jesse, go on a vacation far away....
You want comedy? Go watch Dave Attell when he is on his 8th Jager and he is improvising and trying new material....
Read a little David Sedaris; in particular "Me Talk Pretty One Day". Maybe you could also visit planet "fuck you up the ass with a sharp stick" if you get the chance.
Dane is not funny, he is animated, there is a difference.

Want another indication there's no accounting for taste... or that public acclaim doesn't necessarily equal artistic achievement?
Mariah Carey now has more #1 singles than Elvis.
Doesn't it only seem like a matter of time before Dane Cook is dating her?

78. PrettyPinkPonies - April 2, 2008 2:53 PM
I agree with #78 thatgirl. I mean, he's original and unfunny. Carlos Mencia is unoriginal AND unfunny. This is a great injustice.
79. carlosisanimmature12yearoldstuckina30yearoldbody - April 2, 2008 3:00 PM

Dane Cook and Jimmy Fallon should team up in a bro-mantical comedy. It would be one of the most apocalyptically bad things ever.
83. Dane Cook - April 2, 2008 4:01 PM
Have you guys ever been in a really bad relationship, or as I like to call them, a relation-SHIT!?
God I'm funny.
Hey, anyone have a crappy romantic comedy they need me to star in? Something wtih Jessica Simpson if at all possible. I need a wooden co-star to bounce my terrible delivery of dialogue off of.
84. Dame Cooked - April 2, 2008 4:48 PM
Dane Cook is soooo UNFUNNY! He is like the frat president who has to be the center of attention. I have tried watching his "comedy" drunk and sober. He just sucks. He is evidence that our species is devolving. He reminds me of the scene from the movie "Idiocracy", where the only movie that is shown is called "Ass" and it is just a camera aimed at an ass and moviegoers are laughing hysterically.
If you like Dane Cook, you are just retarded.
85. kadolpho - April 2, 2008 5:19 PM

For those of you who don't think dane cook is funny, you really have issuses!!

They say, "Because I like to make people laugh."
Then, I yell, "Let's Rock!" and kick them in the nuts. Sweeet!

all these comments are from dudes who are jealous because their girlfriends want to bang dane cook more than them. period. he is a rock star!
92. Solution - April 2, 2008 11:29 PM
We should get the averages of the IQ's of those thinking Dane Cook is funny and those thinking he's not.
That should settle the kind of jokes he tells.
93. Janeane The Acerbic Goblin - April 2, 2008 11:51 PM
It's been a secret that Dane Cook is definitely overrated, way overrated. He's funny once in a while, but to me he's just obnoxious and shouts a lot. I think people laugh at him because they're afraid he might flip out if they don't.
His comedy seems "edgy" because of his energy, but ultimately, he really isn't saying much. It's just observational humour, and not particularly funny.
Employee of the Month was wretched.
94. bk broiler - April 3, 2008 12:29 AM
OK OK OK.... we get it everybody, you guys dont like dane cooks comedy...so dont listen. I do enjoy it, because comedy is supposed to be silly, stupid and sometimes downright retarded. I agree there are some of his jokes that are forced and lame...but for the most part he is pretty hilarious. You guys need to get off from your high horses of comedy because your losing oxygen to your brain. You all should go buy the full collection of Frasier since your SOOOOOOOO intelligent!

99. IKE - April 3, 2008 11:01 AM
#99, Dane Cook really ISN'T funny. Sure, the tank thing is kinda weak, but there's better material on here than Cook spews forth.
Just an opinion (I pitch my 2 cents in whenever possible).

The only thing funny about Dane Cook is when that guy from MadTV does his imitation of him, which is far funnier than anything I've ever heard come out of DC's stupid mouth.

Yeah. Dane Cook isn't funny just like Stephen King is a bad writer. Everyone knows that truly skilled artists languish in obscurity, it's proof of their genius.
He made it, you didn't, you're jealous, get over it. Being from Boston, I could have told you years ago that he would be branded as a bad comic upon attaining fame, because Bostonians live to complain.
....Okay, so he does pander to groupies, and I kinda want to punch him too, but only because I'm jealous.

#104, I didn't know who he was when I tagged him "unfunny." I was told (by a girl....a groupie apparently) that he was soooooo funny, so I saw a couple of clips. Then I saw him on MTV's movie awards show. Weak.
Maybe he just didn't live up to the hype that I was given.
I hope he returns to obscurity and works on the genius of his craft.....he hasn't grasped it yet.
GO RED SOX!!

I really get a kick out of his comedy but all of the albums and specials are repetitious with very little new material. If you truly want to see how unfunny he is watch the "Dennis Leary Roast". Cook is the host and truly sucked the show up. In general though I concur with #95.

Dane Cook can be hilarious! Especially when he's doing Louie CK's material. When I listen to a Dane Cook joke, if it is funny, I wonder who he got it from.

Oh my gosh, whatever dude. I know a lot of guys don't like him cuz hes hot as hell and funny so they're bitter and jealous. Whatever ,he is so effin funny because all of his stories, you can relate to and be like omg that just happened to me yesterday. Like relationsh!ts, and like cutting down peoples directions... take a right at the red house... "thats fu%$in maroon!" If you cross the railroad tracks you've gone to far.. "bump bump"...... and really loud or really quiet people at the drive thru, "Ma'am , are you trying to molest via drive thru?"..."Okay, pull around"............"where do I go?" Dane Cook is funny, if he was fat and ugly nobody would mess with him. How bout Carlos Mencia steals other people's material and he still isn't even amusing. But another funny guy, Nick Swardson...HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Using Dane's rediculousness as an excuse to hate him is stupid because Adam Sandler was rediculous but everyones loves him. I think Adam is attractive but "a regular joe" Dane Cook is really attractive and I promise that has to do with him not being liked.

ashley #108 guys do not think like that, if he's not funny he's not funny

It's kind of ironic that someone here said "At least he doesn't steal his material. I'm looking at you Carlos Mencia", given that among comedians, Cook is widely regarded as one of the worst thieves of other people's material working today. Now, "borrowing" from your fellow comedians is a time-honored tradition, so he probably wouldn't be held in such disregard by comedy pros, except that he delivers that stolen material like a spastic goatherd. Not funny + thief = douche.
And Ashley, how could you accuse men of disliking Cook just because he's pretty? I like Brian Posehn and Patton Oswald a lot, and they are both better looking than Dane Cook.
