Dane Jeffrey Cook (born March 18, 1972 in Cambridge, Massachusetts) is an American stand-up comedian and screen actor. Cook grew up in Arlington, Massachusetts and attended Arlington High School. He was raised Roman Catholic.

His comic material, is mostly observational humor. His recent routines include such diverse topics as car accident mayhem, Cook’s time spent working at Burger King and assorted geek humor. Cook often refers to specific places or things using his own slang terms. For instance: Burger King is the “BK Lounge” (a phrase first used by De La Soul), Walgreens is “The Wall” , and a sandwich is a “sangwich”. He also popularized the acronym BAMF, short for Bad Ass Mother Fucker, a slight variation on the more-common and widely-used “BMF”, or “Bad Mother Fucker”. Among Cook’s numerous television credits are performances on Comedy Central Presents and Comedy Central Bar Mitzvah Bash.

He is often referred to as ‘the most popular guy on MySpace’ (next to Tom Anderson, the creator of the service), because at one time he approved every friend request he received — recently hitting one million.

Career

When he was a teenager, Dane discovered his comedic talent when his father, former radio personality George Cook, gave him a tape recorder and microphone. He was inspired by watching and listening to a variety of comedians, including Bill Cosby, Johnny Carson, George Carlin and even Red Skelton. In seventh grade he watched Saturday Night Live one night and saw Martin Short performing his character Ed Grimley. He suddenly realized a goal in life: to be on the show.

Smartypants101, you just don't get it. His shit is so subversive. I mean, "fuck shoes"? This guy doesn't even need punchlines or original material to be funny.

lol, people joining on the "Hate Dane Cook" trail, in order to be cool, and a rebel at the same time. C'mon guys, get an opinion of your own for once - I know majority of you hate this guy because you're joining a hate bandwagon for a mainstream comedian. I'm neutral towards him, b/c it's hit or miss for me.

If I exaggerated every-day things and used the word 'fuck' 3 times in every sentence would I also be considered one of the best comedians?
