I thought he was funny in the 90's. I saw a newer stand up special he did a couple years ago and was totally turned off by his views and the fact that not one of his jokes were actually funny.

Same with Dennis Miller.

I've been told when I went to bitch about that special on Reddit that he was only funny before because he wasn't writing his own jokes, and I'm not sure if that is actually true but it would make sense.
