Sorry, Will Ferrell does not appear on this list of generally unfunny comedians because, while I am not a fan of his usual style, at least he redeems himself on with the occasional hilarious movie cameo (Wedding Crashers). Nor does Russell Brand make his presence known here either because I made (a hopelessly ridiculous) exemption for intelligent (albeit usually tasteless) comedians. With all of these other comedians who did make the list, I guess I “just don’t get it.” Plus, several of them are stealing from Louis C.K., so there’s that justification as well. Needless to say, several of the below videos are NSFW. Enjoy!

Dane Cook: Here, Dane talks about his most memorable one-night stand ever. Why do women fall for this crap?

Gilbert Gottfried: That voice just kills me. Somehow, this guy spends several minutes “kicking out” his audience, and they persist in laughing.

Jay Leno: This is his first appearance on “The Tonight Show” when he was doing actual stand-up comedy. Sadly, he never got any better than this — even when other people started writing his jokes.

Carrot Top: All of those damn props. If he was so amusing in the first place, he wouldn’t need props!

Whoopi Goldberg: This video was pre-“View,” but she still wasn’t funny at all. Although I do admit that the profanity in this video is much appreciated.

Larry the Cable Guy: God only knows that I’ve reviewed enough of this guy’s movies, but his standup routine is somehow even worse.

Carlos Mencia: Racism never gets old, right? Wrong.

Kevin James: At first, I was amazed that this guy went mainstream, but in retrospect … not so surprising.

Chelsea Handler: Sure, it’s cool to diss Angelina Jolie. But what about Brad? He’s blameless, of course.

Andrew Dice Clay: This entry to the list seems obligatory because, quite simply, he is the sexist pig to end all sexist pigs.

Daniel Tosh: Making fun of the mentally handicapped is fun! And this doesn’t even cover his recent rape jokes.
