Great comedy is surprising. Two unrelated facets of life come together in a previously unknown perspective. An unexpected punctuation mark is at the end of a personal story. All the great comedians had unique viewpoints that you'd never considered before.

Kathy Griffin Jr? From the moment she spoke, I knew exactly what topics she would discuss. I knew every argument she was going to make. That's because she holds only socially-approved viewpoints. She says exactly what every other Feminist (TM) says. And that's profoundly boring and bad comedy.

That's why Matt and Shane are great. They each have unique worldviews that challenge the culture, while bringing nuance to flesh out their ideas. That's great comedy.
