    are you being serious?


    most have been mentioned already. I don't watch as much off the beaten path standup as i use to, but i keep up with the bigger names.

    Louie CK - sometimes the funniest part of the joke is how he will make fun of his own joke. Still one of my favorite bits was when he was arrested and strip searched.

    Gaffigan - best food comic ever. The guy can do an hour on food and it's hilarious.

    Regan - best clean comic out there. Just has great stuff for anyone.

    Stephen Lynch - great songs. I think he was wasted during his Houston show...but it was still funny.

    I never understood the love for Aziz. The guy is just annoying.

    Does Stephen Lynch count?

    <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/LOtT91fXa68&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/LOtT91fXa68&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

    Dana Gould. He's not really recent (though he still tours occasionally), but he's still pretty funny.

    <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/R-mUh4MOuvk&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/R-mUh4MOuvk&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

    And if you're a Star Trek TOS fan, this one should be amusing.

    <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/tk-wqUXa_jw&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/tk-wqUXa_jw&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

    And I second Louis CK (already have tickets for his show in Austin) and Eddie Izzard.

    (language NSFW in all clips)
