I will say this - people shouldn't be giving poor Mencia such graft. After all, he didn't steal the foul language from the Cos... he came up with that shit all by himself! :P

Oh, here's more:

1. No arguments here about the thievery. But....I think most artists 'borrow'
or outright steal from someone.:toast:

2. Well, nobody's perfect...
:D

Borrowing or homage is inevitable. Stealing outright is a tad different. Some of the uploaded bits are arguable that it's borrowing, but not the one from the Cos...

3. Carlos Menstealia is a talentless shitbag who would be flipping burgers...
if he didn't discover the magic of ripping off everyone else's work.

4. Joe Rogan has been all over this for years now
Big war going on between him and Mencia.

6. Joe Rogan? talk about a not talent shitbag...

I don't admire anyone who rips other people's work off, but I have watched Mencia, and yes, the dude makes me laugh.

But Cosby is in a rare league, up among the alltime greats. Mencia will most likely be forgotten ten years from now. He may just end up flipping burgers.

5. I hate that guy
I especially hate the way he claims that anybody who doesn't like him "doesn't know how to have FUN"
