@thisshouldbeentertaining3386 I think one of the jokes that he was accused of stealing from Louis (the strange name for a kid) was unfair, because they both stole it from Cosby, but the shoe size joke? Blatant Demetri Martin rip off.

@alexmini123 There is a Demetri Martin joke where he talks about wanting a size 10 shoe but all that was available was a 9, so he suggested cutting off his toes. Dane Cook told the same joke almost verbatim, changing size 10 to size 12 and doing the thing where he walks around and repeats himself a lot. I did think that the atheist becoming a tree joke was pretty funny, though.

I thought his joke about hoping the smug atheist who wanted to come back as a tree would be turned into a Bible was pretty funny, but mostly it seemed like he sold attitude rather than actually saying funny things.

@nvm7438 Bill Cosby had that same joke years before either. Not that he didn't steal jokes, but he didn't steal that particular one from Louis.
