There's a Blue Collar Comedy special on Comedy Central right now. I'm just listening to it as I'm doing what I do on the computer to basically waste time. I've come to a realization though.
Jeff Foxworthy may be funny, but the pitch of his voice is the equivalent of fingernails scratching down a chalkboard to me.
I guess the laughs balance out the ringing in my ears.
Anybody with me on this?
Maybe I have just gone completely Looney Tunes.

He does have an irritating pitch to his voice. If he wasn't so funny he'd never make it as a public speaker.I watched that too. Always get a kick out of it. -

UI,
I feel the same about him. I think Ron White is my favorite of those guys.

I like each of them for their very unique sense of humor, but it's a toss up between Ron White and Larry the Cable guy for me. -

UI,
They all make me laugh, but Ron White makes me laugh the hardest. Larry The Cable Guy is from an area near some of my old stomping grounds. I know people who knew him before he was famous. :-)

really? That's cool. Was he a nice funny guy or just blindly ambitious?
I think the thing that gets me about Larry's sense of humor is that I grew up in a family that has some resemblance to his. Ron White, on the other hand, I see as more of a smart wit and I like that he draws you along with the story.

I do know what you mean about the voice but I think I just folded it into his character and that man (and friends) is FUNNY. I do love to laugh, don't you? -

UI,
Yes. He's just a nice funny guy they tell me.
I agree about Ron White's story telling. I can find a little common ground in the material of all four of he Blue Collar guys.
woman,
I do love to laugh. I need to do it more often.

When this first came out, I was in stitches in the middle of the afternoon....I got kind of bored with the same kind of jokes after awhile--and yes, Jeff's voice is annoying--I caught that same show I think--and switched channels after one or two jokes. I liked Ron White and that other guy--not the cable guy--can't think of his name off the top of my head, when it first appeared. He has that comedy show....what the heck is his name....Bill Engvall!(The tater salad/thrown out of the bar bit was my favorite, though) -

pickers,
It is hilarious. :-)
wombat,
Ron White has his own special called, "You can't fix stupid". It's really good if you like him. Bill Engvall is pretty good too. I like his "Here's your sign!".
