My brother thinks he can do stand-up...

ChadTower:

The lines about the lawnmower and the nickel slots are vicious.   :laugh2:

You can definitely only do that if you're pretty damn sure any given 3 guys in the audience won't wait for you in the parking lot.

I can't find it right now but there is a youtube vid floating around of him walking on stage in the middle of a Carlos Mencia act and eviscerating the guy as a liar, cheat, and content thief.  Awesome.

Ginsu Victim:
Joe was the one onstage and he made a joke about Carlos "Menstealia" and Carlos jumped up there to confront him.

NSFW.

ChadTower:

Yep, that's the one.   ;D 

shmokes:
That's funny . . . we talked about Mencia in my intellectual property course this semester.  Stand-up comedy is a strange world legally speaking.  When Carlos Mencia steals jokes it is copyright infringement.  And he's making A LOT of money using other peoples' material.  But there is just a culture of self-policing in the world of stand-up comedy.  They use shame and peer pressure to enforce intellectual property.  But they have the legal right to sue and collect damages.  He cannot legally go onstage and use that material.
