That was great! And way past OVERDUE! Mencia is a hacky jerk-off theif and i'm happy as hell that someone had the balls to do that to him publicly! Like I said, it was a longtime-coming. I don't think Rogan's all that funny but, at least he comes by it honestly. And this video did alot for my opinion of him. I wish I could give him some Karma for that sh*t. Oh well, the universe will.

Jerman I think you got your facts wrong. The Comdey Store loves Rogan. Thats why he was allowed to sit up there and do that. He is gonna be there this weekend.
soo great. there was a video of bobby lee trying to backpedal up there, supporting mencia saying he never stole his joke, but apparently its been taken down.
Joe Rogan's good people. Mencia's show pretty much proved every reason Chappelle walked away from his show for right. Comedy Central wanted a minority minstrel to be offensive and off color. At least Chappelle was smart about it. Mencia's like some sort of horrific melding of Larry the Cable Guy, Chris Kattan & Pablo Francisco (underrated).

yep, he's a total hack who changed his name to sound mexican so he could basically get a pass to tell (steal) racist jokes. he's not original. he's not funny. he's not genuine. he's not talented. he's basically the lowest of the low in the comedy world if you ask me.
I don't think I know anyone that likes Mencia. I almost put my fist through the TV when his commercial came on during the superbowl. He needs to really just shut his mouth and walk away, but I guess that is hard to do when you think everyone thinks that you are funny.
One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain. So hit me with music. Hit me with music, now, yeah. Hit me with music. Brutalize me with music.
damn joe rogan is pissed. hes got a whole big rant on his website. carlos mencia does suck. i didnt watch him so i was unaware. i assumed as much from the commericals i saw. its funny his name is ned. almost as good as ernest and the dudes not even mexican hes half german and half honduran! thats great. also i didnt know that dennis leary stole large parts of his act from some dude who died of cancer, and called it no cure for cancer. he sux too i guess. i loved that show. heres a link to joes rant. www.joerogan.net/main.php?archives=1&article=44170

Yea I just got an email from Joe. At first he could still play The Store but apparently Mitzis sons "Pauley Shore" went behind her back and sided with Mencia who is the one that grabbed a mic and got on stage starting this when he wasnt even there to perform.

yeah dude, thats what i was talking about when i said he couldnt perform there anymore. he put it up on his website not very long after he put up the info about what happened in the vid with the link of it on youtube.

Not that I'm defending Mencia or anything, but the joke about illegal Mexicans building the wall across the border isn't that hard to come up with. It's a pretty elementary observation, really.

Especially when you observe the guy opening for you say it.
ya but george lopez roughing him up over stealing 15 minutes of his stuff seems bad. and the fact that it seems like alot of comedianss have that opinion of him. and hes european and claims to be mexican. changed his name to further the deception. id say his career is pretty much over. but who knows. i dont think many bright people are watching his show so im sure it will keep on making comedy central money so they will keep him on.

Who gave two craps about mencia or Joe rogan (except ufc fans). Now Rogan and mencia are being talked about. I think this is a stunt put on by comedy central to boost these guys names. also just to get people interested in some comedians they are pushing. Lets see a few months back Kramer is seen on youtube talking some shit that landed him in big trouble. The marketing folks take note of how powerful and (cheap) it can be to create a buzz on youtube. So joe rogan goes up and calls out mencia for stealing jokes!! This is brilliant. These guys are a close community they travel together play the same shows night after night. They all steal each others shit. They are comedians I think if u look at rogans face a few times on stage he seems as though he is going to bust out laughing. This is great and just shows how powerful the internet can be to market.......Classic stunt
mencia's rating for his next show will go up. Plus these whole thing has given these guys weeks worth of new material. God bless america
