I'm thinking George Carlin moves down the list since he just passed away, Dennis Miller, Adam Corolla and Rob Schneider are non-issues, while Dane Cook has gotta be on that list somewhere.

.... he mentioned that Jim Norton and others' style of insult comedy isn't funny, just mean.
he's wrong about this.

I think Jim Norton is pretty good. I don't care to hear him and some of the Opie & Anthony type comics talk about how Don Imus was a hero and how they're so anti-PC, but Norton has a well-polished act for the raunch crowd.

I read Omar's recap and I guess this was the topic on 11/29/05. I think it's a topic worth revisiting, or at least a mini-topic to make a new top 10 list. Dane Cook still needs to be on there, even if his fanbase has died. I live in the Boston area and he was honored in mid-September with "Dane Cook Day" in Boston. Yikes!

She's certainly not funny enough for the ticket prices she charges. I was just looking on Ticketmaster at the lineup at the Wilbur Theatre in Boston. Tickets for Lisa Lampanelli go for $37 to $57. Artie Lange is $58-$75!

how does being dead make him less unfunny?

Although he professes to like him, I always sensed a tension (read: hatred) between Tom and Patton Oswalt.

It doesn't, I just thought the man deserved a little bit of respect is all... maybe to be taken off the list for a month or two.

Let's make this easy: if Tom doesn't single out a specific comedian for praise, it's safe to assume he dislikes them.

One of Tom's top ten least funny is in the news today. Denis Leary apparently slams autism in his new book. Which begs the question: WHY DOES DENIS LEARY HAVE A BOOK OUT!?

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/10/15/denis-leary-slams-autism_n_134749.html

Leary's such a tool. I live in the Boston area and I can't stand the guy showing up at dumb charity events in the area, acting like he's a hero.
