Used to be a Mencia fan, turns out I like other comics

    Joe Rogan shreds Carlos Menstealia

    Hard to defend Mencia after watching this.

    Carlos Mencia is actually a half-German, half-Honduran dude named Ned Holness.

    That's not what his Green Card says ... that's his defense in the video.

    Give Rogan his props - confronted Carlos ... Ned ... face-to-face on stage.

    Yup. Rogan's got some stones.

  6. First of all, Mencia isn't even funny.
    Secondly, if he has stolen jokes (and Rogan certainly makes a better case than Mencia does) he should be canned by Comedy Central (is his awful show still on anyway?).
    Finally, how come no other comedian has come forward with this before? Why hasn't someone like George Lopez, who claims he stole so much of his stuff, made a bigger deal about it?
    I mean, non-confrontational or not, would we let a big-time columnist get away with stealing our stuff? I'm certain we'd be all over them (see the Albom deal, which was less serious a transgression than stealing someone else's work).

    Rogan's a hack, too.
     
  8. Google still has it

    That was awesome! I wish comedians would do that more often - call each other out like that.

    Carlos Mencia sucks.

    Comedy Central, please bring back the greatest comedian of all time. Dave Chappelle.

    I haven't seen those movies, but I find it hard to believe that anybody can top what Chappelle does on stage. If you rent "Killin them Softly" and "For what it's Worth", you'll come to my side. :D

    Wow... That's a crazy video...

    Joe Rogan has some major stones to confront a guy on stage like that.
