    I found this on the internet from a blog. It's kind of old, so I apologize if it's been posted before.

    The first guy is Louis CK from his 2001 CD and the next guy is Dane Cook...

    Here is another thing from that site of an interview George Lopez did with Howard Stern where he talks about Carlos Mencia stealing 13 minutes of his material (and then knocking him out at a comedy club).

    Dane Cook is simply not funny, and Carlos Mencia is annoying. These guys make me crave the prop comedy of Carrot Top.

    The sad part about Dane Cook is that he used to be funny. But now it's boring. Carlos Mencia was never funny.

    I think both of them are funny. It's a shame though if they're stealing material.
    I guess it would be hard to not steal material as a comedian too. If you watch comedians a lot and then are sitting around a few years later trying to come up with material you're bound to incorporate stuff you've heard before. I use their jokes all the time in my conversations. Hehe.

    Dane Cook is pathetic, and that Tourgasm show on HBO is asinine.

    A comedian that hasn't stolen material from somebody?? BWAHAHAHAHA!! That's funny. Even if it's not word for word, you can bet that comedians change it around just enough to pass it off as their own.

    Dane Cook was awesome pre-HBO. It's almost like they're forcing him to suck. I saw him in Vegas a few months ago and it was awesome. I don't know how they made him suck so bad for the tv special.

    EDIT: I for got to mention how lame Mencia is. As a rule I must do this at every opportunity.

    Mencia has always been crappy and hes so damn loud. His stand up routine is like 80% F words and 100% annoying. Dane on the other hand is likeable, and hes energetic and he was funnier like last year, i dont know how u go from funny to not, in like less than a year.

    I've heard Dane Cook's stuff on XM and don't see why people think he's funny... he sounds like Jim Rome trying to be a comedian... oh wait, that would still be Jim Rome.

    Carlos Mencia? Needs to go away.

    I love Dane Cook and enjoyed his special recently. Carlos Mencia I couldn't care less about.

    I have heard Larry the Cable Guy try and pass some jokes he stole from Rodney Carrington as his own. Go figure. :rolleyes:

    The worst part is that Louis CK is one of the funniest people in the whole damn world.

    Thanks for this. I'd read the charges of plagiarism before, but hadn't heard the audio.

    Louis CK hasn't released an album lately?
    (Or, single, fun-lovin' Dane Cook has a hard time passing off jokes about diaper changing and a rocky marriage as his own?)
