I think its deffffenitli me coz evritime I stand up people laugh. Once I stood up after falling down lying in coma for 3 years or so . when I stood up after a great big yawn evriboddy started laughing like howler monkeys becoz I wasn't supposed to move like becoz it woz my funeral and I woz supposed to be dead. Now no one laughs at me anymore coz now Im actually dead. Not so funny now is it?
So it must be Lee Evans then.

I like Carlos Mencia, Ron White, Bill Engvall, George Lopez and Jeff Foxworthy myself. Think they are very very original and talented and really hilarious.
