Comedians who are 22 years old can certainly be funny and clever, and be capable of telling jokes - but are they talking about their favorite TV shows, or a particular brand of shampoo?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You can tell a lot about a person by what comedians they like.
I think comedians start off as pranksters or something.
I really don't know what makes a comedian. I think it's a family background and environment. Yet if you put the same ingredients in another person, he may never utter a funny line.
I am trying to work out what my taste is, comedy-wise. I look up to stand up comedians who appear to be telling the truth, but I don't mind if they are lying.
I think a comedian has to be low status on some level; that gives you the right to do all sorts of jokes about all sorts of different kinds of people.
Professional comedians, surprisingly, have a lack of humor. They're insensitive to the insanity of our times.
All of my comedian friends are some of the best joke writers in the world.
Ever since I was a kid, I just loved those comedians on TV who would just have fun with the language.
I think comedians have a function in society, which is to make fun of our icons.
I read in the 'Daily Mail' that I'm one of these 'foul-mouthed comedians.' But I'm much cleaner than the people they like. Nothing gives me greater pleasure than to think that a 70-year-old - particularly someone like Alan Bennett - would like it, because they've seen a lot of stuff.
