14 More Jokes That Belong in the Comedy Hall of Fame

The strange fact is that what we call history is made of many tales, told by many people–not just a single author. We are absolutely absorbed with history, burdened by its weight but endlessly fascinated by its ramifications. We erect monuments to remember the past as well as mausoleums to honor our ancestors. Like the artists of painting and sculpture, the chronology of comedy is characterized by its artists. 

For today and subsequent generations, the history of comedy is a long and interesting one. If there was a comedy hall of fame (metaphorically speaking, though we're sure the one in Florida is lovely) we wanted to explore the jokes that absolutely belong in there. Of course Bill Hicks made the list with an epic burn on his own pops. Of course we couldn't call ourselves a self respecting comedy website without something from Mitch Hedberg.
