Dave Chappelle is who he pretends to be in his default standup image.
I believe that. I loved his interview on Inside the Actor's Studio. I think he's smart and funny. His parents are both professors, aren't they? I know his dad taught at Antioch.
I don't watch Mencia and really only know what I see on the endless ads on Comedy Central.
Of course, my shtick may be overstating the extent to which I don't fit with the local hooples.
Heh. That or wicked smart commentary on life, death and crime.
Dave's Inside The Actor's studio was hilarious. I think he was just as confused as I was that he was asked to do it. It is one of my favorite episodes by far.
I told you, a tailor and dark glasses, and I'm Munch on Estrogen.
God, Olbermann killed me with that police report thing..."wide stance "is going to be Minneapolis P.D's joke of the year.
I don't recall Chappelle's act being about growing up poor, but I may be misremembering. Whether or not Mencia is really Mexican is just a sidenote to his joke stealing.
Actually, Munch on Estrogen is kind of a horrifying thought, so don't take that literally.
Bon Bon I wasn't going to go there but since you did...

He's much more "I was looking at men/women/black folk/white folk and noticed..." Less about him, and not even presented from a POV more tightly refined than Black American Male.
Okay. Gotta go see if I can fall asleep. First attempt at doing this drug free in over a week.
There's a repeat Craig Ferguson on! Mike Rowe's on! My god, he's got a sexy voice.
