Fact: Dane Cook sucks.
That wouldn't be even worthy of a post if he weren't sucking in new ways that are really getting on my nerves lately.
Let me back up. If you are lucky enough to have avoided this person so far, he is an "actor" and "comedian" of inexplicable popularity in 21st century America. Yet he has accomplished less than Paris Hilton.
His movies are all horrible and yet he still manages to be worse than the material. Good Luck Chuck, Employee Of The Month, Mr. Brooks, and Waiting are some of his most recent offenses. It's not just that he is untalented. He's not even interesting.
Dane Cook: Vicious Circle, his TV stand up "comedy" special was all standing up and no comedy. His reality "comedy" show Tourgasm was so bad it made the viewer less funny just by watching it.
When he confines himself to his own shows at least he is easy to avoid but this month I've had to endure his face on TV and voice on radio because some genius at Major League Baseball thought Dane Cook is the guy to do promo spots for this year's playoffs. So one minute you are rooting for the Indians to beat Boston and the next, before you have time to hit the remote, Dane Cook's is on your TV urging you to watch the playoffs THAT YOU ARE ALREADY WATCHING. Yep, he is that stupid. At least the ads aren't funny. Or interesting. Or entertaining. Can I say anything nice about Dane Cook? Uh...he's consistent?
Explain to me again how many Octobers there are in a year, Dane? I keep forgetting. Just put the bullet in my head.
