Jim Jefferies' childhood friend brothel story will always crack me up.

I'm going with the niche german option: Jan Philip Zymny. He is a former Poetry Slammer and writes hilarious dadaistic texts. An he can also do that spontaneous together with the audience.
And of course the german comedian Thorsten StrΓ€ter.
Milton Jones. His style is basically one-liners, but he's amazing at them. If you've ever watched his appearances on Mock the Week you'll know.
Jeff Arcuri - his funniest stuff is his crowd work so he constantly has new stuff to watch.
Rodney Dangerfield.
Still the king of one liners.
Bruan Reagan and Norm McDonald are two of my favorites.
That guy that's always drinking whiskey
"I'm Doug Stanhope, and that's why I drink"?
My personal favourite is Jon Richardson.
Ross Nobel has a surrealist ability beyond all others, delivered in a geordie accent makes it perfect.
The end of the supermarket episode of Joe Pera Talks With You made me laugh harder than I have ever laughed in my life.
Jimmy O. Yang.
Jo Koy.
There are others, but these are the most recent I've watched.
Taylor Tomlinson, Matteo Lane
Joke answer: Peter Molyneux
Serious answer: The sadly now retired Eckart von Hirschhausen, who does comedy mostly about health and medical topics.
Lee Mack
Patton Oswalt and Michelle Buteau. Kind of an odd pairing considering their comedy is very different, but they both make me regularly wheeze laugh.
Chris Estrada. His TV show This Fool is one of the best things to watch, it's SO good.
Also Maria Bamford is a riot.
Frankie Boyle
Stavros Halkias
Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias
Shane gilis and Matt mcusker mostly when they're not doing stand up. The conversations are just so perfectly stupid that it cracks me up every time.
