I'm latino and have to admit one thing

We're not funny. Yeah we're ok but nowhere near the George Carlin Dave Chappelle level of funny. Sad but true.

Only Latino comedians I'm familiar with are Carlos Mencia (what happened to that guy anyway?) and Gabriel Iglesias and I find them both very funny.

Neither one of them are funny. Mencia is a poser and a thief. Iglesias is nice but unfunny and annoying.

Mencia is a hack, a known joke stealer.

I don't know how people find Iglesias funny, his fluffy jokes are tiring.

Yes. In fact I'm annoyed this isn't a well known fact, since his name constantly popping in in regards to comedians.

I don't know how people find Iglesias funny, his fluffy jokes are tiring.

True, but apparently his comedic timing is perfect, as witnessed in this very show. I'd be interested in watching a comedy show where he's the main character, if only they'd keep the fluffy jokes to a minimum (or not used them at all).

Latinos aren't funny? Somebody tell that to Louis CK.

So a whole 13% of the pop. isn't funny just because you don't fins two guys funny? That makes absolutely no sense at all. Being funny has nothing to do with your culture---you're either funny, or you aren't---period.

Cristela was about as funny as a toothache.
