Shouldn't you have to actually be funny to break a comedy endurance record.

    I can only endure about 10 seconds of Dane Cook's comedy.

    Technically I don't think 'Dane Cook' and 'comedy' are supposed to be in the same sentence.

    He is one of those comedians that get less and less funny the more you see them... The first time I saw him on one of those comedy central shows, I laughed and thought he was pretty good... I can't stand him now.

    did people have to pay to see this crap, or did they just bus in loads of sorority girls who think he is a god?

    Anyone die or pass out from exhaustion in the audience?

    Shouldn't any Endurance Award go to the audience in this case?

    What the hell is wrong with you people? Dane Cook is hilarious! I never heard of him until like last year when a friend made me listen. I guess all of you "unpopularity freaks" just hate anything popular, and probably don't give it a chance! Anyway I find his humor pretty damn funny, just because he's a sort of X-gen/MTVish comic does not mean he sucks... he's not Nickelback!

    haters :P

    i couldn't care less if something is popular or not, it doesn't change my feeling about something one way or the other. this guy, for *my* tastes, is just not funny at all. i've heard other comedians hate him too, not in a jealous sort of way, but cuz he's a douchebag.

    I bet he was a total nightmare on his first 5 minute open spot.

    i know most people hate em. but i had never heard of him a year ago and someone let me watch the vicious circle dvd. i almost pissed my pants.
    hes funny to me.
    but i walked out on larry the cable guy at the fox theatre. so im not one to be judging.
    Just, not enough.
    I need more.
    Nothing seems to satisfy.
    I said, I dont want it.
    I just need it.
    To breathe, to feel, to know Im alive.

    I don't care about a comedians popularity. I love Chapelle, Chris Rock, Louis CK all of which are popular comedians. Dane Cook just plain sucks. Watching his act is like watching some retarded frat boy with tourettes.

    yeah i was thinking... by law of averages he must have a ratio of 10% funny even though everyone seems to hate him.. i've never heard of him, but then i've never heard of Chip McGillacuddy.. but i'm pretty sure he's a necrophiliac
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
