Nah, topics that make people think they can objectively judge art are the worst.

...is anybody in this topic doing this?

Everyone is. Unless you don't consider stand-up an art form, which would just be weird.

Art is entirely subjective, so, I don't see what your problem is. Just imagine the topic title were something like "Which people who are famous for being funny do you not find funny" and it's fine.

I'm just seeing people who point out which popular comedians they don't like. Nobody has said "Dance Cook is objectively awful."

It's pretty obvious that the implication is "in your opinion." At least, I assumed it would be. If it helps, that was what I intended it to be understood as.

Evacuate? In our moment of triumph? I think you overestimate their chances.

I give Radiohead an objective 5.2 on the art scale

in my objective they are less art than Wrestlemania 20

Art is entirely subjective

Which is why these topics are always terrible. And if the topic title was simply that, I definitely wouldn't be posting. But it isn't.

Haven't we all grown up enough that we don't need "in your opinion" glaring at us for us to not think of things as fact?

Back on topic, kind of surprised nobody has said Seth McFarline yet. I don't have a problem with him, but considering how many people claim Family Guy is the bane of everything comedic, someone must have this opinion.

I haven't seen much Family Guy, but what I did see I didn't find funny in the least.

Might as well add Matt Stone & Trey Parker.

this seems like a bit of an overreaction.

I don't know who said Jerry Seinfeld, but holy crap I do not get why everyone loves that show. In fact I'd say that guy is objectively not funny, is not art and is bad at his job.
