Dane Cook and Carlos Mencia are both well known to steal other comedians material, then re-write it and pass it off as their own. Except Dane doesn't re-write it, he just says whatever Louis CK says and then flails around a little bit. Now that's comedy! But no one has screamed louder about all this than Joe Rogan and Brian Redban. And so Mencia called Joe on stage Saturday night at the Comedy Store in Hollywood for a battle to settle things once and for all. Umm, it didn't work out, as comedian after comedian came out to say that Mencia absolutely steals material. What’s amazing is that Mencia jacks material and still sucks. He's not even clever enough to steal good material. Its like breaking into a bank and stealing their pens. Or maybe the jokes are funny and he just fucks them up. It's hard to tell. The guy in this video wouldn't even make my list of The 100 Funniest Carlos Mencias. I've seen this dude live and its just awful, like a Shakespearean tragedy, he might as well just bring an angel on stage and stab it.

so tempted to say…u know what. But I’ll refrain. Thank you.
bout time
Can’t say I care for Mr. Fear Factor, but anybody that calls out that pile of shit Mencia is alright in my book.
Ummm…yeah….NONE of these guys are particularly funny. Who cares about them stealing lame jokes from each other. The whole thing is just a farce. If they were funny, I might care.
Ned (Carlos) got fucked up! My only wish is that Ned would have thrown a punch and Joe would have choked him out in ten seconds. Then we could have watched Ned flop around unconscious for ten mins. That would make for good video.
these guys aren’t worthy to kiss the tuchis of greats like the Three Stooges, Carrot Top or the Unknown Comic. Now THOSE were comedians!
I guess without Dave Chappelle that needed to fill some space on Comedy Central, and Carlos (Ned) got lucky!! But there is nothing wrong with a good ass whipping!!!
Is stealing jokes anything like stealing blogs posts practically verbatim? Just curious…
I agree
Isn’t Joe Rogan some sort of 10th Degree Jedi or something? I can’t watch this at work, but Mencia needs a good beating, so if Master Rogan actually thrashes him, I might need to take the rest of the day off…
I never realized so many people hated him. Never watched him myself. I just remember people doing that retarded “Der De Der”.
I’m pretty sure regardless of who is stealing what, Mencia is doing more than Fear Factor Joe ever did, career wise. I didn’t even know Rogan was a comedian. Either way, none of them are funny.
Why do Mexicans have those little steering wheels on their low riders? So they can steer with handcuffs on.
Joe is one bad ass comedian.
Lizz, Mencia caters to the lowest common denominator. He steals half his jokes, and his other half are just blatant steroetypical piece of shit jokes that people have been telling for 50 years. Yeah, Jews are cheap, and Mexicans are “beaners” and retards go “Dee dee dee”. Yeah, thats hilarious.
The fact is that this idiot’s real name is Ned Holness. He’s not Mexican, he’s half-Honduran. He started his career under that name, realized he wasnt talented enough to make it, so he decided to change his name to Carlos Mencia and pass himself off as a “Mexican who crosses the line.” Except he cant even do that correctly. He’s a fucking no talent hack.
And finally, whats with the girl in the crowd at the beginning of the tape? After Rogan explains that Carlos steals material, she yells “No, he makes it better!” Bitch, how retarded are you?
That girl clearly wanted to sleep with Mencia, because there’s no other explanation. There are always the two or three “I want to bang a comic” drunk girls at any show, no matter how hideous, fat or awful the comedian is.
I have Rogan’s first c.d. and it’s great. Came out way before Fear Factor. A certain morning radio talk show host plays one of the bits all the time. Mencia’s been around the clubs for years, but sort of popped up on the radar after Chappelle dropped out.
All of my Mexican American friends love Carlos Mencia, which I find really strange. I hated the guy the first time I heard him just because I can’t stand people who constantly refer to themselves as “crazy” or “pushing boundaries.” Mencia’s entire schtick is that he says the things that everyone else is thinking but are too scared to say. It’s a bunch of bullshit — comedians have been telling race-related jokes for years. It’s a mainstay of comedians to try to get people to laugh at taboo subjects.
Carlos Mencia is a hack. I applaud Jpe Rogan for calling him out, but I’m sorry to say that I also think that Rogan’s a douche.
These lame ass comedians are such bitches. These guys think they are so great that no one in the world could possibly make the connection that “black guys like fat white girls” or “Mexicans build things” or “you ever notice how black guys talk like this and white guys talk like that” except them. Chances are if your a bunch of lame ass comedians then yes you will come up with the same lame jokes.
Is it just me, or do they all suck? Especially Dane Cook.
