A comedian you love: Margaret Cho
Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? Yes, we saw Tracy Morgan, Artie Lange, and I know I've seen more, I'm just blanking. I am actually seeing Margaret on November 5th!
A comedian you cannot stand: Dax Sheppard and Dane Cook. I will watch them, I just don't get why people find them funny.
Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? I actually do. Aaron and me are going to try to see it tonight because the opening night crowds are always the best in NYC.

A comedian you love: Jim Gaffigan.

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? Bill Engvall, Bill Crosby, Wayne Brady

A comedian you cannot stand: Larry the Cable Guy

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? Yes, some parts of them.  I think some of it is really stupid and/or really gross, but there are parts in the movies that I find pretty hysterical.

A comedian you love: I plead the fifth.

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? Nope.  But I'd like to.  I'd rather see a comedian than go to a concert ANY DAY.

A comedian you cannot stand: I plead the fifth.

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? ugh.

A comedian you love: Stina, don't hate me, but I used to love Dane Cook in college. Also the little bit of Mitch Hedberg I've heard.

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? Dane Cook at Laugh Factory in LA which was cool because it was a surprise show that a friend found out about. I've also been to a bunch of TV tapings and seen DL Hughley, Norm MacDonald (who was high out of his mind), Greg Giraldo and probably a couple more.

A comedian you cannot stand: Can't think of anyone although I'm sure there are plenty.

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? I find parts of them funny and parts just too stupid/painful to enjoy.

Joy, why all this pleading the fifth?

I'd like to see some other responses before I go shooting my mouth off :)

Like music tastes, comedy is very subjective.  I tend to be guarded when sharing what I like in those two subjects.

 Oh, I don't hate you. Actually I think Dane Cook is perfect for college students.

A comedian you love: Christopher Titus

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? No.

A comedian you cannot stand: PJ Walsh.  He came to my school and he was NOT funny.

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? Not the disgusting stunts, but the ones where they're pranking people are really funny.

gottahavashorti

A comedian you love: I like the Blue Collar guys

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? Dane Cook.  He came to my school shortly after he became really popular with college kids.

A comedian you cannot stand: Don't know the names of any.  If I dislike them, I've probably changed the channel too quickly to learn their name.

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? Never seen them

A comedian you love: Chelsea Handler, Dennis Leary, Mitch Hedberg, Sam Kinison, George Carlin (it doesn't help that the last 3 are now gone)

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? Went to see Jeff Dunham, it was hilarious and he ended up on stage an hr over the time slot since we were his last show of the night and we was getting drunk lol

A comedian you cannot stand: Carlos Mencia/ George Lopez / Any of the Rednecks

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? For the most part I do, just not the disgusting parts.

ETA: I forgot to mention my love of Andrew Dice Clay, my family hates when I get drunk because I will always tell at least 3 or 4 of his jokes and they don't think he's funny. (although they laugh so I will continue to do this)

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? refuse to watch.  looks too dumb.

A comedian you love: I love a lot of them ... I'm going to go with Eddie Izzard right now, just because DH actually put on the CD we have of "Dressed To Kill" yesterday in the car, which made getting through the day a lot easier (Part of the actual funeral procession entailed driving 60 miles up the Parkway, and I really needed a pick-me-up during that time)

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? I'm going to see Daniel Tosh in AC in a couple of weeks. I'm so excited!

A comedian you cannot stand: Larry The Cable Guy ... he's just not funny (That being said, I do like the other guys from Blue Collar Comedy)

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? No

A comedian you love: Jeff Dunham...I'm a sucker for the puppets...lol
Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? I wish I could...several famous comics have done shows at the Improv in my city, but I have yet to make it to a show...someday maybe...
A comedian you cannot stand: I'm could never get into Chris Farley or David Spade...my FI loves their movies but I just don't...
Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? No...think it's stupid...I'm not into the slapstick stuff.

A comedian you love:  Steven Wright

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up?  We saw Kathleen Madigan a few weeks ago, she was great!  Jason Dudey opened for her; he was really funny too, but I don't think he's famous.

A comedian you cannot stand:  Dane Cook

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny?  I'll admit, I laughed at the trailer.  Not sure if we'll see it, though.

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? Yup! I've seen Lisa Lampanelli, Maria Bamford and Kathy Griffin live :-)

A comedian you love: Eddie Izzard and Jim Gaffigan

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? No

A comedian you cannot stand: I'm not the biggest fan of Dane Cook...and no one else is coming to mind.

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? Bits and pieces.  Not as a whole, but here and there some things are funny.

KaylaSue19

A comedian you love: Ron White, Brian Regan

Have you ever seen a famous comic do stand up? Not really, Theo from MTV Road Rules a million years ago became a comic and I saw him live a few months ago. Not exactly high on the celeb status.

A comedian you cannot stand: I can't think of any at the moment.

Do you find the Jackass movies/show funny? Generally yes. Not everything they do though.
