The last couple days I have been swamped at work, so I have been doing what most people do in that situation, playing Bejeweled Blitz and watching YouTube. I like listening to standup in the background and thought I would share a couple that I enjoyed and hadn't seen before. Maybe you can suggest some others.
Anthony Jeselnik has some pretty black humour. He starts alright but finishes really strong I thought. I liked it the first time, though once is probably enough.
Kevin Shea was pretty good as well. Finishes his jokes with some nice twists.
Ed Byrne. I like comics who don't swear and still make me laugh. They are always more clever.
Hope it made you smile. Mani.

Fuck that. Terran is the race of big dicked Vikings who rampage across the galaxies in huge battleships, rip up the ground with artillery spawned from the forges of hell, and send waves of valiant warriors to fight the freaks of science.

I love stand up comedy, these guys are genius. Will watch all of them :D
First one was pretty bad IMO (okay just the beginning, opener was pretty bleh.)

Lewis Black has some politically tinted humor, though his language's definitely course and has quite a bit of yelling in it. I would look him up though for some clips to see if you like his style.
Jeff Dunhman is fairly well known, his ventriloquist act is pretty entertaining.
Steve Byrne and Dat Phan are two asian comedians that I can think of off of the top of my mind. Both had different styles.
I don't think any of them are necessarily on the same level of "intellectual" jokes, but nevertheless they're good comedians.

George Carlin is my favorite.
Bill Hicks was great too.
