Technically, his name is Ned Mencia. He used the Holness name out of respect for his biological father; but his birth name is Ned Mencia.

As far as popular comedians I don't like; it starts with Dane Cook. He has his moments, but I would not pay to hear him. I don't think Sara Silverman is funny either. I get the jokes; I am just not amused by them.

Larry The Cable Guy, also not funny.

I think Chappelle is quite funny.

On the other hand

Dane Cook, Jerry Seinfeld, Carlos joke thief Mencia, Andy Dick are not funny.

Rossanne Bar, or any other fat sassy woman who thinks highly of herself.

Raymond, and Seinfield - Nothing funny about them at all.

Adam Sandler - I liked some of his early movies, but he's become too repetitious, and therefore annoying. Same goes for Will Ferrel.

Jim Carrey - I thought "Dumb and Dumber" was funny although the title was fitting, since then the "Cable Guy", and everything else it seems that he thinks he's funnier than everyone else does.

Dane Cook - Another one that I originally liked untill he started thinking he was god's gift to laughter, and women as well. He looks like a mule drop kicked him in the face.

Robin Williams - He has his moments, but the rambling chitter chatter is just stupid.

John Hedder - "Napolean Dynamite" was ok, but he has nothing else left in the tank.

John Lovitz - Just plain ole' not funny in any way shape or form.

Dennis Miller - I agree with this guy, just horrible. How on earth does he even have a day job.

Jay & Silent Bob - Not humorous.

Matthew Lillard - Tries too hard, and is only amusing to himself.

Jeff Foxworthy - Seems like a nice guy, but the "You might be a redneck" jokes got old, and lame before I even first heard them.

Eddie Murphy - Remember the days of his stand up acts, "Beverly Hills Cop", "Comming to America", "Life"???? What on earth happened. I could care less if he is trying to be more kid oriented, or family friendly, he's just lame now.

Oh, man, I cannot stand LEWIS BLACK.

I can't even sit through a whole bit without feeling annoyed, bored, or even embarrassed for him. I guess I thought I would like him because he is supposed to be so irreverent, cutting edge, etc. To me his humor seems a few decades old...

Interesting -- in Israel, The Eternal Jew is considered a comedy but in Germany it's a drama...or do I have that backwards...
