Chappelle is my favorite storyteller in comedy.
Carlin is my favorite observational commentator (or philosopher, if you prefer).
Burr is my favorite angry Bostoner.
I'll throw a curveball and say that Carrot Top has been growing on me lately... I didn't care for him at all in the 90's, but seeing him guest host on Kill Tony changed my opinion of him.

I loved the Chappelle show, I think it opened a lot of people’s eyes on issues about race through comedy. Unfortunately, he doesn’t seem to be the same guy anymore.
Carrot Top pulling things out of a box is just funny to me.
I love stand up comedy almost as much as I love muscular women! I love Josh Johnson, Mitch Hedberg, Bill Hicks, Bill Burr, Norm Macdonald, Anthony Jeselnik, Martin Short, Eddie Murphy, Sarah Silverman, Dave Chappelle, George Carlin, Andy Kaufman, Sam Kinison, Richard Pryor, Joan Rivers, Brian Regan, Rodney Dangerfield, Steve Martin, Kevin Nealon, Nikki Glaser, Roseanne Barr (her stuff in the 1980s and early 1990s only), Chris Rock, Phyllis Diller, John Mulaney, Lewis Black, Steven Wright, Robin Williams, Dana Carvey, Jim Gaffigan, Don Rickles, Louis CK, Redd Foxx, Gilbert Gottfried, Emo Phillips, Tom Segura, just to name a few
Steve Martin is not only a great comedian, he is also a world class banjo player. :)
Check out Jeff Dunham - comedian/ventriloquist. He's hysterical. Kristi put me on to him a few years ago.

I 2nd a lot of these already mentioned. But I'm going to go with one you might not have thought of...
Frank Oz (Voice, Personality, and Muppeteer) of:
Here's Miss Piggy (Oz) making a large theatre audience of celebrities laugh at the 52nd Annual Academy Awards (1980) with co-presenter Johnny Carson. (First 3 minutes 8 seconds of the video.):
@Phenom, when I was young I loved watching The Muppets, and saw myself as Kermit. Now I'm older, I relate much moreso to the two old gasbags in the balcony. Much more! 🤔🤣

Statler and Waldorf. Statler was voiced by Richard Hunt, and Waldorf was voiced by Jim Henson.
All they did was heckle, but they kept coming back each night and were still there for every show. 🤔
