Tim Minchin (musician but still a comedian )
Oh, man - Tim Minchin’s “Inflatable You” is amazing
His “Thank You God” routine is a weekly play at my house. Someone is always going back and watching it again.

Awesome song. I also love “Prejudice” which is no doubt more controversial here in the States than his native Australia. His dark and transgressive humor takes a special kind of of person to appreciate it. He’s also, IMO, a musical genius, which sometimes gets lost in the distraction of humor.
side note:
I met y’all after a show at my college in the 90’s. Thanks for being good humans and bringing good music to our world.

The first time I saw Beyond the Pale I thought I was gonna die laughing.
Rodney Dangerfield.
Still the king of one liners.
The end of the supermarket episode of Joe Pera Talks With You made me laugh harder than I have ever laughed in my life.
Jim Jefferies’ childhood friend brothel story will always crack me up.
Also Australian and a master is Luke Heggie. Very dry, and worth a listen.
Lee Mack
Conan O’Brien. He’s just effortlessly funny, especially when he’s just riffing with Sona and Matt on “Conan O’Brien needs a friend”.
That guy that’s always drinking whiskey
did you mean Ron White?
that guy is hysterical
Yup that’s the guy! Yeah he is funny af
“I’m Doug Stanhope, and that’s why I drink”?
I’m going with the niche german option: Jan Philip Zymny. He is a former Poetry Slammer and writes hilarious dadaistic texts. An he can also do that spontaneous together with the audience.
And of course the german comedian Thorsten Sträter.
Ross Nobel has a surrealist ability beyond all others, delivered in a geordie accent makes it perfect.

Scrolled too far without seeing Weird Al listed. He may not do stand-up but he’s absolutely a comedian, and he’s been making me laugh consistently for 30 years now.
Mae Martin.
Maria Bamford.
hysterical and a great human despite difficult circumstances
Absolutely. I saw her perform once and would see her again in a heartbeat.
