Take Dave Chappelle. Now make him a fat Hispanic halfbreed. Now make him devoid of anything that's even remotely funny or original. Now you've got Carlos Mencia, the current scourge of Comedy Central. His witty catchphrase? "DEE DEE DEE." Don't get it? Didn't think you would. It's actually supposed to be a sound that retarded people make. Mencia basically goes on Digg before the show, finds funny news stories about people doing stupid things, repeats them on air to a mindless audience, and says "DEE DEE DEE" over and over again for hours in an attempt to mock the stupidity of the people in said news story.
There are about a billion reasons why this isn't funny. First of all, a child of about 3 years old can pull this act off. I know because I have successfully gotten my three-year-old niece to say "DEE DEE DEE" over and over again. Another reason it isn't funny is because that's not even the noise that a stereotypical retard makes. The correct noise is more along the lines of "DURRRRRRRR." You'd think Mencia would know this, since he appears to be a total retard. Well, there's an explanation as to why he doesn't. He is beyond retarded. This man is so incredibly feeble-minded that he actually fails at being a retard. Incredible, ain't it?
Think the "DEE DEE DEE" thing is hilarious? Well get ready to hold on to your sides because that's only half of his act! The other half consists of nothing but old racist jokes that have been passed around since the Jim Crow Laws came about. Now, the only reason ol' Ned can get away with these jokes is because he tries to pass himself off as a Mexican, even though there is nothing Mexican about him except his stage name, which the Comedy Central executives slapped on him at the last minute. I can only imagine what would happen if, say, a white comedian tried his hand at shouting racist garbage at the audience in his comedy routine. Oh wait, nevermind, Michael Richards already tried it.
Anyway, I hope that one day the audience will come to its senses and realize how stupid they are for watching a fat racist Mexican halfbreed spew verbal diarrhea out of his mouth for 22 solid minutes. Until that day comes, it's safe to say that America is, comedy-wise, doomed.
