+manamiemyr You know it's good if he cracks up haha

gold

agreed

agreed

Yeah mee 2

+Angel S I think he makes that shit up as he goes so some of the jokes are new to him also :D :D

+Angel S I agree. Same thing with Eddie Murphy.

+iare19 He is a good adliber

+Angel S He also does some physical add on's to the joke, such as when he stuck his chin up and said "I know"... that shit was funny.

After what he went through wit his show it seems like he really enjoyed himself here.

LOL!

lol!!!!

lol!!

naw but it makes sense

oprah baby

well, being white and being woman, she probably read the secret and got the joke ;)

o shit waddup

Harambe is that you?

lmao I watched her too. She was waiting to invest in a good joke

Lmao good catch.

xcessive lmfao, one of funniest part...

+belthazormn1 Nice.

Lazarus Pitts Thanks! :D

+belthazormn1 Well I don't know if it's the greatest argument because I'm sure the book is intended for first world audiences... still funny as fuck though.

+belthazormn1 What did she say

Red seeds She was speechless ;)

+Goku Oh shit waddup boi

Holy Drug Lord🔼 I don't know if you know this but Dave had his own hit TV show that he walked away from...and that's what the guy was referring to......

rachybaby72 yes, but Dave's STILL not dead...so you can still see him if/when he does any stand-up shows. Or just write him a letter or email. Then you won't miss him so much!

JohnnyWunderboy2 Totally

JohnnyWunderboy2 Expect no less than an old pro like Chapelle.

JohnnyWunderboy2 Honestly, i wouldnt of even spotted tht without ur comment

+JohnnyWunderboy2 that's just natural timing. all good story tellers have that

I noticed that before i read ur comment. He is great

Dee Zee he's still funny but not even close to his old self.

Congratulations on getting the most ignorant dumbfuck comment of 2014.

Thanks I tried.

solomon visigoth If anything, that award goes to you. You may claim your prize by positively visualizing it.

Congrats for the both of you as well for being oblivious dumbass sheep, now go back to your 9-5 office jobs you pathetic losers. Lol!

solomon visigoth LOL ignorance is truly bliss. You must want a comment war?

8 years later. Still one of the most popular

***** Thank you. Now I'm cured.

+TheTomtah Me, too. In fact, it makes me feel worse when I snap out of it and realize how shitty reality really is.

What's so bad. I'm curious not trolling

I'm the same way

+TheTomtah You have to take action. Visualizing isn't going to create change. Visualizing helps focus on your goals and what you want to develop. Action is the key.

how do you know?

@@Bak3dB3an he said it in the standup.

@@Bak3dB3an At the beginning of the set (separate video) he said he didn't have any material. Then he proceeded to do 10 minutes off the cuff better than most comedians spend years cultivating. Dude is Mozart-level comedian.

@@fiarandompenaltygeneratorm5044 well we dont know if it was true or not

But a homeless man wont solve his problems by pretending to be happy. That was my whole point!

But homelessness is a serious problem, and he wouldn't be able to pretend it away.

+muna clear Dude, he's on our side lol

There is a thing called optimism

+CaptainAtomSmasher No, not by pretending but by doing the work within to get happy. Identify why, grieve the reasons why, learn from why, and go after your inner joy and harmony. If one can not do it on their own or are prone to be unhappy, maybe upping the tier of intervention would be the answer.

If more people lived like Dave and tried to do what was right. Instead of just trying to get more money. The world would be a better place. I have nothing but respect for him. He's also the funniest human being that has ever lived. Stay Gold Davie

Fully agreed!

Have you never seen his shows before this? eh he is funny though

yes i have :P

jod kins Another legend!! Totally, slipped my mind. Key & Peele are two other guys I admire today.

bill burr..

Robert Roth I've heard of him..need to check him out. Thanks for that man

They're all funny dudes

Travis Thompson I know you said this a couple months ago, but go check out like frankie boyle and other british comedians. You'll be killing yourself laughing after a while

The age of spin was amazing

Loved it

I can't pick a favorite, they're all so good!

@Junglistic Soulja "Well luckily there's no way the T's can possibly get anymore angry at Dave" *SpongeBob narrarator voice* 2 years later...

Oh boy, I wonder what you think of them now given their, uh... divisive nature for lack of a better word.

I concur.

marmary try watching some british comedians, chapelle is working on a small number of subjects

+boksaboki British comedians??😂😂😂😂😂

pirolas03 yes why?, .. check Ricky Gervais

+boksaboki Ricky Gervais is so unfunny it's boring, I am in england and most of the humour sucks, but i am black so I do think white people and black.people laugh at diffrent things even if they are listening to the same comedian, there's only one comedian I like in the UK and his name is Chris Evans! sorry I just don't get the English humour I find it very dry....

Krazy_Kid-007 THE greatest.

@@ugk4life411 word brother

Doug Glovier same

Doug Glovier word

Wurd

Have you tried The Secret?

The white women in the front row were stone faced.... Hmmmmmmmmm....

+Phillip Walker I agree why waste a seat if you dont want to be there.

+J Cadeau I know right I guess they could afford to not be entertained.

+Phillip Walker Did you not hear all the laughter throughout the video and applauding at the end? You can you see people enjoying themselves with big smiles on their faces

incorrect use of the word disinterested; unintersted is the word you are looking for.

Maybe because .. you need wise pure guidence

@@peace5715 I'm not really sure what you mean by this, can you elaborate?

@@lklobs your pain .. you need objective truth to guide you on how to deal with that pain so you will deal with it once and for all ..

You live in ohio?

I saw him in Amsterdam. It was worth the 78 or however the fuck much bucks it was

You... you just did? This is him doing stand up.

Yes

ever

Nah. Norm Macdonald is the best.

@@erlendhansen5635 No, Phil Hendrie is, but Norm is a close second.

@@toucansam3 No. You are wrong. Norm Macdonald is number one.

hothamandfauri you're in luck

hothamandfauri Well he's dropped four in a year span now. Lol

You have a bad attitude about starving to death!

armin38822 lmao the secret has to do with quantum physics and psychology

I did too almost got jumped

Tokuryu Lopez It does NOT have to do with quatum physics or physics and the only reason you could think it does is because you have no actual knowledge about both.

I agree that the way that the secret is presented is bullshit, and I think dave's take on it is hilarious. But I think there's something deeper to it than desires. Keeping a positive attitude isn't magical, but it's an undeniably important thing to do in life.

Gillian G They're stupid if they think anyone "chose before birth" but that doesn't mean the law of attraction doesn't exist. This is just an example of extremists. The law of attraction is real. I see it in life all the time. It isn't that you just magically get things by using a law of attraction. But if u want to get things you desire or get out of a situation than you have to get in a state where you can attract those things in your life. For instance if u continue to say you're "broke" or you'll "always be broke" do you think you will make money? Probably not. Works on the same level with anything else. If u don't have the belief something will happen or don't attract the right energy that's attracted to it than it won't happen. Some people take this whole concept to the extreme which is problematic. But there's also a lot people can learn through law of attraction and similar concepts if they didn't easily dismiss it.

You can't, the Laugh Factory in LA which filmed and uploaded this only upload bits and not specials. I doubt he even did a special, he probably just did 15 minutes.

Garrett1240 Yeah, I saw in one of the other videos he remarked having only 10 minutes.

i feel quite the contrary, i didnt laugh at all the whole vid, and im amazed at how so many ppl find humor in him mocking those who are trying help others through positive encouragement. just not my type of humor

Raymond Chen And I'm sure you're a blast at party's too, but why go to a comedy club if you're not in the mood for a laugh.....seems like taking up a seat I might like to have.

bermudaguy1 If you notice, some of the people sitting in the crowd are Asians. Asians don't laugh.

Axiaon This has nothing to do with liberals you right wing shithead.

I think it might be because they know that the camera is going to show them. People feel more inhibited when they are exposed. If you watch Louis CK's stand ups, the lights are always off on the audience, it's completely dark, so you get more out of them because they're comfortably anonymous. Think of any stand up that you thought went really good where you could clearly see the audience, it makes sense to think that if the lights were off during those shows, there would be even more laughter.

No, it works because the author grew up as a pretty white girl in a first world country and they can basically get whatever they want by the "ask, believe, receive" method because they're pretty white girls, if that's how they choose to play it.

So what you're saying is live life, and good things might happen to you. Wow, what a revelation! Better write that down and sell it for $15.99 a pop.

***** Correction - Live life, stay focused on your goals, ignore distractions, stay focused on your goals, take the time to train and learn new skills, stay focused on your goals.. I repeated that twice because that's how much focus you need to have to get anywhere these days. The workforce doesn't want entrepreneurs, they want people who keep their heads down and work. It takes goal setting, determination, commitment and FOCUS to get where you want to be regardless of the industry. If you don't like the sound of that? Stay a worker!

Omg, small world. Did NOT expect to stumble across you here dude, holy crap xD

PivotAnimator50 Hey brother! :D

Because he’s a comedian....

who abowbek faoubuob alsuwodhu

AGREED. But most people are too butthurt to take a joke most of the time.

.

Blair Burns It was a joke but he actually had that opinion. And i did find it funny, i was just saying

His point was that merely not-moaning, merely thinking this-or-that, isn't enough. If you're in a million dollar lawsuit, you have to have more than childish tips about keeping your 'chin up,' you must master things like incentive-systems and litigative wisdom. That's what he was really saying: the secret is foolish because it's crude and compensatory, as you said, 'not going to happen if all you do is moan and complain' means it's only relevant to people prone to irrational patterned thought, not someone like Dave who was relatively rational but being manipulated by professional compliance experts at Comedy Central. Someone like him being told weak insights by people who have no idea, was the joke: 'turn that frown upside down' and 'visualize it and it'll happen' doesn't suffice at all for a rational celebrity who's really dealing with things like stalkers, blackmail, copyright disputes, power struggles, and so much more where pat answers are useless.

its a joke.

MrMvpron22 sometimes it's a cop-out to just say "it's a joke." Dave was making a point. Humor doesn't mean we ignore points. If someone says 'I farted in Oprah's mouth this morning,' that's one thing. Dave wasn't saying that.

diypictures True! Something the secret doesn't really talk about that it should is the value of being down, but that doesn't sell books. How can you tell someone they want to be depressed? It doesn't ever go well. Therefore they won't be able to transition. Nor should they as they need to process the 'negative', which is often how law of attraction or 'the secret' is seen as, some kind of delivery system out of their current situation, which it won't ever be.

Haha I thought the opposite, look at that big smile during some parts

George was laughing all through the show.

Ibrahim Abdul that one women in the front row just fucked up look on her face the whole show

Bahahahahaha! Love this post
