Has anyone heard this guy's comedy? Man, it's freaking hilarious. The thing I really like about is the cussing is to an ultra minimum, but it's still hilarious. Not that I'm on some moral high horse, I love Chris Rock and Chappelle and Eddie and all those guys, but this guy is really funny. I suggest checking him out if you like stand-up. I think his newest CD is called "These are Jokes"
 
I saw him a couple of months ago. He had a special on Comedy Central. Really funny stuff. I think he's done two specials for Comedy Central. His website's pretty cool, too.

 
He also does guest appearances on The Daily Show.
He's pretty funny. Really, really dry.
Now how long until a hater comes on here and starts claiming he isn't funny?
 
Very very dry. That's my sense of humor. I guess that's why I find him so hilarious.
 
I saw his special on Comedy Central and I laughed my ass off for the whole hour. The one thing that caught my attention was he seemed to have stolen a lot of his schtick from Mitch Hedberg. But obviously since Mitch is gone, I guess it's OK because the comedy that Mitch and Demetri do is absolutely hilarious.
 
The thing that impressed me was the way he went about his comedy. It wasn't just him standing up there telling jokes. He played instruments, used art, just seemed like a talented guy.

Funny dude, although I never thought of comparing him to Hedberg, whom I don't find funny. But that's just me.

Honestly, after reading this, I'll probably never take anything you say seriously again.

Oh no, whatever will I do?

Not sure, but I should probably go fetch you a beer, right? ;D

Seriously though — how can you not find Mitch Hedberg funny? Some burned-out hippie steal your girlfriend once?
 
He just doesn't make me laugh. Maybe I'm not doing enough drugs. :)

As for that beer, I'm not as high maintenance as some of these beer snobs around here, so I'll take a Miller Lite, in a 16-ounce can.
 
He's also in the new Fountains of Wayne video "Someone to Love".

Always loved his bits on TDS.
