More "people that make me laugh" than "comedians" as such, but after a lot of thought here's my definitive list; i think.
In no particular order:
Paul Merton Jonathan Katz Omid Djalili Greg Giraldo Milton Jones Chris Rock Stephen Fry Rich Hall Mike Wilmot Ross Noble Dom Irerra Marcus Brigstocke Bill Hicks Sean Lock Richard Pryor
I voted Ricky Gervais, because he is the only one on that list whose name I know! I'm stuck here in america, where genuine humor is practically outlawed, what with false morality and political correctness everywhere. I do love Bill Maher and Dave Chappelle, they ignore the PC climate, or poke fun at it.
Peter Kay, every time. Real life stories seen in a different light - making it absurd and very funny. Don't know if you've noticed, but he hardly swears - no need to. Genius.
