- Comedians who do sound effects while telling long stories with no real punchline. We know what a bus sounds like, thanks.

- that "make up stupid insults" thing that comprises 50% of Jonah Hill's career

i think theyre talking about how every judd apatow movie has a ten-minute scene where the characters just say "your shirt looks like bigfoot's taint hair" back and forth

Huh, I saw one Judd Apatow movie Knocked Up and that was more than enough for me, so I don't really know about his trademarks.

I watched Super Troopers for the first time the other night, it loving sucked

I would say the humor was pretty hacky, if the movie contained any whatsoever.

Yes we know Super Troopers sucks pretty bad, but the Shenanigans joke is ok.

I think Deadpool had a touch of the "making up stupid insults" thing -- I vaguely remember one of the characters saying that another looked like an avocado had sex with an old avocado or something? I don't remember, and that was the only one I kind of liked.

Deadpool is very obnoxious and hacky in general

I have no appreciation for the idea that being deliberately unfunny at a comedy show is somehow revelatory.

Nanette was hacky as gently caress, and its thesis that comedy is inherently bad is especially undercut by the comedian doing a big ol’ fuckin U-turn after receiving praise and cash.
