3. Can't we list both as favorites? They are such an uplift.
I'm in the Refuse-to-Choose faction.

4. You know, that's a damn good question...
I'm going to have to go with Ellen though. I just love her humor. She can have me rolling on the floor for an hour w/ stand-up and never cuss. That takes talent. Now, before you jump to conclusions about me, I'm one of the most foul-mouthed motherfuckers around, but I REALLY respect her ability to be a TRUE comedian.

24. There is a clear distinction between their styles (to say the least).
I love how Ellen can make salted peanuts funnier than hell!

6. Ellen in a walk
I love Ellen's brand of humor and am so glad she has her own show. I admit to not liking Cho as much.

25. It's a real tough call for me.
I admire them both for similar reasons. Besides being brilliant, I respect how Ellen and Margaret have handled harassment from the conservative right over the years.

I was surprised that Margaret got such disrespect from HRC in July '04; I'll never forgive them for dis-inviting her from their Unity Party. :hi:

32. yeah, has Ellen done much controversy in her act?
I just love Margaret Cho. I love Ellen's stand-up, but her talk show schtick is kind of boring.

17. Don't see much of Margaret Cho down under...
...so I have to go with Ellen.

And of course since the relationship with the thing ended, she has shown she has wonderful taste in women, so gotta support her. ;)

18. Damn straight 94114!!! Ooooops, sorry to say "straight!"
=)

This is tough cuzz I like them both pretty much equally.

However, the poll doesn't allow me to choose both, does it?

I guess I'll pick Margaret because she's showing a little more cleavage. LOL :evilgrin:

And she's a little more naughty which I kinda like since I have a dirty mind AND a foul fuckin mouth ;)

But don't get me wrong. I LOVE Ellen. Love her!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :loveya:

19. I'm there with you on that.
The first time I ever saw a Margaret Cho video, it was loaned from a friend who said, be careful, the language is pretty extreme, and she's pretty explicit about sex. After I was done, I thought, what? This is me on a good day!

31. I have a confession
over holidays last year my mom got hold of my ipod Nano after supper and was listening to margaret cho going on about her mother's out of body experience and the booby trapped bedspread. She didn't laugh much during that - trying to figure out the controls and stuff.

I found her a while later in the breakfast nook cackling and giggling insanely about the suction cup dildo on the refrigerator - WHO KNEW!

Now she's a convert - my mother is a Margaret Cho groupie.

37. I'm going to have to ask you a favor...
Would you be so kind as to give your Mother a great big hug for me? You may let her know it was my wish.

35. Margaret Cho, hands down!


"Hi! My name's Gwen and I'm here to waaaaaaaaaaaarrrssshhh your vagina!"

I love Margaret! She never fails to make me laugh. I saw her a couple of years ago, before the last Presidential election, and her routine was very political and very anti-*. I think she's a little more prone to address current events and take on touchy subjects than Ellen is, which I really enjoy. Don't get me wrong, I love Ellen, I just love Margaret a little more.

Although, Ellen's rendition of "Shoop" is pretty hard to beat. That's laugh out loud funny! :rofl:

41. Although I love them both....
Cho cracks me up more. She rates higher on the spit-take, "Oh No She Di-unt!!" meter with me.
