Ultimate Battle. Who Is Funnier: CANADIANS OR JEWS?

[Cheebs]

Canadians:
Dan Aykroyd


John Candy


Jim Carrey


Phil Hartman


Catherine O'Hara






Jews:
Woody Allen


Mel Brooks


Sacha Baron Cohen


Jerry Seinfeld


Sarah Silverman

[Mupepe]

They're both equally good and equally bad.  For every Seinfeld, there's a Sarah Silverman. 

[Madrun Badrun]

Canadians.   Just for laughs makes us great.

[Cheebs]

They're both equally good and equally bad.  For every Seinfeld, there's a Sarah Silverman. 

But you must PICK. John Candy or Mel Brooks. Only one wins.

[The Fake Shemp]

I don't think you listed the FUNNIEST the Jews have to offer!

[Disposable White Guy]

I only see one Canadian who was actually hysterical 100% of his life, while there's only one Jew who's pretty overrated and not overly funny at all.

[Cheebs]

I don't think you listed the FUNNIEST the Jews have to offer!

I just did ones off my head. Everyone knows the biggies for both I suspect.

I counter you with Canada's ultimate weapon:

[Bloodwake]

Face it. Canada wins.

[The Fake Shemp]

3/4 of the Canadians listed kind of suck.  Martin Short is awful.

[Cheebs]

3/4 of the Canadians listed kind of suck.  Martin Short is awful.

Dan Akyrod says no

[bluemax]

"If she don't find you handsome, she'll at least find you handy."

[Madrun Badrun]

[Mupepe]

 

Jews win.

[Itch]

Ugh, God why'd you have to lump Sarah Silverman with the Jews you motherfucker?

[Madrun Badrun]

This brings up a philosophical question.  Would a Jewish Canadian be the perfect comedian?   

[omg_lemurs]

3/4 of the Canadians listed kind of suck.  Martin Short is awful.

Gotta go with willco in this one.

Jews win this race.

[APF]

JEWS

[bagofeyes]

Australians

[omg_lemurs]

And another thing.

Comedic Actors =/= Comedians

Canadians are mostly comedic actors.

[drohne]

the jews have philip roth and joseph heller. i didn't know canadians were supposed to be funny. :/

[Disposable White Guy]

This brings up a philosophical question.  Would a Jewish Canadian be the perfect comedian?   

You have to toss a Black British woman into the mix there too.

[Madrun Badrun]

But women aren't funny. 

[Disposable White Guy]

They are when you slap them in the face with your cock.

[Madrun Badrun]

true, espacilly when they cry, hilarious. 

spoiler (click to show/hide)

actually jane curtain is one of my favorite SNL personalities. 

[close]

[Cheebs]

No need to wonder. Judge for yourself:

[Flannel Boy]

Jews, duh.

[Madrun Badrun]

Jews, duh.

OK you really are french aren't you?  aren't you!  Going against your country like this, I'm outraged.   

[Flannel Boy]

Jews, duh.

OK you really are french aren't you?  aren't you!  Going against your country like this, I'm outraged.   

Hey we're better at hockey and poutine at least. Physics, philosophy, literature, comedy, etc. Jews have us beat.

[PhoenixWright]

I'm pretty sure he's Jewish AND Canadian, so why choose? 

[Flannel Boy]

(Image removed from quote.)

I'm pretty sure he's Jewish AND Canadian, so why choose? 

No he isn't. If he is Jewish, then he's a fake Jew like a certain poster here.

[Madrun Badrun]

(Image removed from quote.)

I'm pretty sure he's Jewish AND Canadian, so why choose? 

I don't think he is. 

[Fresh Prince]

Australians

Merrick and Russo are the most overrated pieces of shit on the face of the earth.

Also Jews win. Jews seem to be more original than Candians.

[Itch]

They are when you slap them in the face with your cock.

AHAHAHAHAHAHA! Excellent post. Just great.

[Ichirou]

I don't understand why this is even a poll.  Jewish comedians are the funniest people on the planet, Canadians don't even come close.

[omg_lemurs]

I DON'T GET WHY PEOPLE KEEP POSTING COMEDIC ACTORS AND NOT COMEDIANS. :[

[Flannel Boy]

I DON'T GET WHY PEOPLE KEEP POSTING COMEDIC ACTORS AND NOT COMEDIANS. :[

many started as stand ups

[omg_lemurs]

If that's not what you know them from then that's not what they are. If that's not an area they were considered successful I wouldn't put comedian first on their resume.

Mike Myers sure as fuck isn't a comedian.

Edit: Although I suppose the topic title says isn't that specific. Its wording can cover actors AND writers/comedians.

As far as writers/comedians are concerned this topic goes to the jews.

Canada's main exports are comedic actors, flannel shirts, and bears.

[Flannel Boy]

If that's not what you know them from then that's not what they are. If that's not an area they were considered successful I wouldn't put comedian first on their resume.

Mike Myers sure as fuck isn't a comedian.

First off the funniest filipino that has ever existed is Rob Schneider, and it's his Jewish side that's pulling that off. So shut up.
Secondly, this topic in no way limits this discussion to stand up comedians.

[omg_lemurs]

if you think Rob Schider is funny you are a real douche bag.

[Flannel Boy]

if you think Rob Schider is funny you are a real douche bag.

If you didn't understand that was a dig at your ethnicity, then we know the real reason why you're still in the ninth grade.

[tiesto]

Definitely Jews... can't believe nobody mentioned Stern.

[Human Snorenado]

Ok, wtf at not listing The Kids in the Hall for Canadians.  That alone takes the competition.  This poll should be disqualified.

Of course, the real winner in any competition would be the British.  Flying Circus ftw.

[MrAngryFace]

Kids in the Hall was kinda hit or miss for me.

I think this is kinda a weird poll anyway.

[Human Snorenado]

Yes, but we've already established that you can't see the humor in a dismembered woman stuffed into a suitcase, now haven't we?

[MrAngryFace]

Whats that even mean?

[Human Snorenado]

Whats that even mean?

EXACTLY.

[MrAngryFace]

Only beer can fix this.

[Human Snorenado]

Only beer can fix this.

DON'T THINK I WILL BE BRIBED SO EASILY, SIR

[MrAngryFace]

I only have one bottle left, I wouldnt wanna share ANYWAY!
