Dane Cook is Hack-tastic
The Dane Cook billboard outside of the Laugh Factory on Sunset was tagged with the word "hack."
Sucks for Cook ... but did the tagger have a point?

17. by the way, it is a noun too and the adjective form is short for hackneyed

20. Anyone who says Dane Cook is not funny is lying!!! I watched his stand-up and was laughing so hard my stomach muscles were killing me. There are too many haters out there. These are people who are so insecure they have to hate on other people to feel better about themselves.

21. Maybe someone wasn't really writing "hack", maybe they were writing "hack-ey sack is good exercise" and they got interrupted. It could be the graffitti had nothing to do with Dane.

Many of the jokes he tells are funny but they're a lot funnier when the people he stole the jokes from from tell the jokes themselves.

24. I knew Dane back when he was a struggling comic from Arlington MA! Congrats for all his success even though he is still telling the some of the same jokes from his days at the 99 in Billerica!

25. Dane Cook is probably the most famous homosexual in Hollywood today, but he does have a drinking problem, so thats something to think about.
Love,

26. I heard Dane has never had a drop of alcohol. Which is hard to believe.

27. Dane has some bad jokes but so do all comedians. And that about him stealing jokes is rubbish, many of the stand up comedians do jokes about similar things, doesn't mean he's stealing.

28. This idiot hack is sooooo not funny. He may be OK in movies, where somebody hands him a script, but his stand up is the worst I have seen. He is the most unfunny funnyman since that schmuck Tom Green.

29. Dane cook rocks! I am sure it takes a little more to achieve his level of success than just telling other peoples jokes

30. My son showed me his work on you tube and the guy is funny.One person said he stole some material from another comedian,after listening to the two peices they were similar but the difference with Dane Cook is you can visulize the situation he is joking about.he puts in the extra effort to give you a laugh.Some comedians jokes do not work well and are understood in other countries.Jerry Seinfeld is another comedian that does well in other countries.We Aussies give 10/10 to Dane.
