The great Louis CK<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Louis isn\u2019t exactly new on the comedy scene; he\u2019s been around for a while. I just always seem to be late to the ballgame when it comes to appreciating really good comedians. (Hell, I\u2019m still working through George Carlin\u2019s archives right now\u2026probably a future top 10 post.)<\/p>\n

\"louis-ck-videos-stand-up\"I first caught Louis\u2019 raw, unpretentious comedic genius when someone sent me a link to the first video below, which is Louis\u2019 riff from an appearance on Conan regarding technology and how little people appreciate what we have. Then when I saw that Louis had a new show on FX (Tuesday nights, 10:00 PM CT), which just premiered about a month ago, I decided I had to tune in.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve really enjoyed the show. It doesn\u2019t feel like it has hit it\u2019s stride yet \u2013 and it is only four episodes in \u2013 but the stand-up interludes would make the show worth watching even if the scripted parts sucked (which they don\u2019t).<\/p>\n

And that brilliant stand-up is what I\u2019ve highlighted below, with my 10 favorite Louis CK stand-up bits, plus links to a few others that didn\u2019t make the cut.<\/p>\n

You may have your own personal favorites that didn\u2019t make the list \u2013 and if so, please provide links in the comment section \u2013 but these are the ones that make me literally laugh out loud every time I see them.<\/p>\n

Enjoy.<\/p>\n

Everything\u2019s Amazing and Nobody\u2019s Happy<\/h3>\n

I\u2019ve embedded this on MSF before, and you\u2019ve probably seen it. But it\u2019s worth watching again.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m fairly certain that both the white boys and the brothers among us will enjoy this one. Louis\u2019 brilliance at its best.<\/p>\n

Louis CK on Single People [NSFW]<\/h3>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re single, your life has no consequence on the Earth, even if you\u2019re helping people aggressively\u2026which you\u2019re not. You can die and it actually doesn\u2019t matter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Louis CK on Married Men [NSFW]<\/h3>\n

Now that we\u2019ve heard Louis\u2019 views on single people, how about what it\u2019s like to be a married man. I\u2019m not married, but can I anticipate agreeing wholeheartedly.<\/p>\n

Louis CK on Being Broke [NSFW]<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re a blogger, or a drunk and\/or high college student (and really, who else reads MSF?), you\u2019ll be able to appreciate this one. The audio is not good on this one, but it\u2019s worth it.<\/p>\n

Louis CK on Kids Names and Their Questions [NSFW]<\/h3>\n

Louis opens with a riff at the beginning about names, ending with his ultimate name for a kid: \u201cLadiesandGentlemen.\u201d He also talks about the parenting, including the idiocy of playing Hide and Seek with his kids, who run the house and compel Louis and his wife to do all kinds of ridiculous things. This video ends with a discussion of the impossibility of answering kids\u2019 questions. Why? Why? Why?<\/em><\/p>\n

And we\u2019ll end it with this one\u2026<\/p>\n

Louis CK on The Difference Between Girls and Women [NSFW]<\/h3>\n

The way this one opens sums it up: \u201cWhen girls go wild, they show their tits. When women go wild, they kill men.\u201d<\/p>\n
