Which comedian do you most identify with?

[Grublet]

I want to know if there is a correlation between personal type and the type of comedians you enjoy.

My personal favorite comedian is Louis CK.

This could also be a discussion about the type of comedians I guess.

My English aren't that good since I'm not a native speaker, so I can't understand some jokes.

I like Eddie Izzard's humour. What would his type be?

ENTP

I don't really identify with comedians. Except maybe Stewart Lee, when he's just winding his audience up mercilessly. I think he might be INTP.

Or Charlie Brooker. I think he might be INTP too.

Stewart Lee seems very smart and funny. I didn't know him but I made a quick google search. He seems to appreciate Eddie Izzard's humour: "Performers like Eddie Izzard are very good at making it feel spontaneous by giving the impression that things have just occurred to him." [1] I also find his (generally negative) opinion about Jimmy Carr interesting. [2] What Jimmy Carr's personality type would be?

 

[WALMART]

George Carlin, of course.

& bill burr

 

[Rasofy]

Bill Hicks.

 

[cafe]

I like several comedians, but if I had to choose one I identify with, I think it'd be Gracie Allen.

 

[citizen cane]

George Carlin, of course.

Ditto.

He's crass/shocking because he doesn't know how to be funny: Probably INTJ.
This is gross, you have been warned, but check out ~5:00. He actually has the cheek to criticise his audience for being amused at "the most offensive joke ever". What a cock.
People say "oh he's being ironic".
Joke's on you.

 

[You]

you got offended, didnt ya?

 

[Salomé]

If rolling your eyes counts as taking offense, then sure.

Some of my favourite ones have already been mentioned...ie: Steward Lee, Charlie Brooker, (newswipe and screenwipe are brilliant) and Eddie Izzard.

I dont really share an affinity with any of them though, because, apart from online through vent....and even then rarely, I dont really have a particularly good sense of humour.

Im either on or off. If it was consistant then maybe...

Also deep down I take things far too seriously.

yeah. sure.
