I have been trying to find a clip of Rodney on Howard Stern years ago. He rattled off about 15 little dick jokes before he even sat down.

1. Richard Prior
2. Jerry Seinfeld
3. Bill Cosby (in his prime, yes, the rapist)
4. Louis C.K. (It's a little early for him but he's great now)

I heard he likes to force female comedians to watch him masturbate.

Bill Regan is outstanding and the cleanest comic ever. Steven Wright is great. His dry humor is great. But Dave Chapelle is the best. Richard Prior was my favorite as a kid, but Dave Chapelle has suprassed him IMHO.

A lot of these guys just aren't that funny to me.
I think I'm fucked up.

So, all 7 of those guys are among the "best of all time"?

P.S. I like Norm McDonald, but would never consider him among the best ever.

Eh I suppose some of them are and some are just my favorites. Saget is undoubtedly number 1 though, I don't think there is any argument there.

Mitch Hedberg is unwatchable for me. I had someone tell me i didnt get his jokes, like they were so smart. I cant stand his delivery, and never thought his jokes were that good. Its just personal taste i guess.
