  • I love how im trying to watch a video of Henry Rollins and im constantly distracted by you guys and your English class. what a Bunch of losers.

  • retard clap at 4 24

  • This video is cool

  • That's not the fucking meaning of surreal. It'd be surreal if the burglar was a giraffe who came to make some ribs for the computer parade passing by.

  • @rickydeeman naw that would be unreal.

  • @ShookOnesTO Wrong. Look it up, you'll learn something. This guy is helping to ruin the english language. Please realize the word he should have used is BIZARRE, not surreal...

  • @rickydeeman shut up! who cares?

  • @ShookOnesTO Intelligent people that care about language, and the people that aren't sucked into the shitty underworld where top 40 music, this guy, and the decimation of the english language are acceptable parts of life.

  • Comment removed

  • @rickydeeman ever heard of a hyperbole? 1. obvious and intentional exaggeration. 2. an extravagant statement or figure of speech not intended to be taken literally. That's sort of like this. If i say "oh man this hamburger is unreal". I don't mean the burger i'm eating is a fake one. I mean this burger is really good. OR im so hungry i could eat a cow. Its pretty obvious I can't eat an entire cow. Its just an exaggeration to show that I am really hungry!

  • @rickydeeman Your intelligence is pretty surreal. That should make sense to you AND i'm not "ruining the english language". your welcome.

  • @ShookOnesTO Dude, anyone can look up literary devices on the internet. And it seems you did too. Your grammar gives that away on the spot. But changing a single word in a statement doesn't make it a hyperbole. The word you use needs to be a synonym with greater or lesser magnitude. You're welcome buddy. I'm done here.

  • @rickydeeman Dude, your moms a synonym with greater or less magnitude. man shut the fuck up. trying to pretend your intelligent on youtube is fuckin dumb. Its like fighting a midget. If you win you look like a fool. If you lose you also look like a fool. well this has been a pretty surreal conversation don't you think ricky?

  • @rickydeeman Just one last thing. Surreal means unreal. It does. I'm sure you can find that information aymwhere. But there is no such thing as "unreal" in this world. Everythings real or it wouldn't be here. So when is it appropriate to use the word surreal ricky? never?

  • @ShookOnesTO Last response you'll get from me because I don't have time for this because I have to write a paper for my ENGLISH minor. What's dumb is starting a fight on YouTube, and resorting to "your mom" insults because you're hooped. I caught you, this is done. Look up surrealist art, it's used for something that changes your perception of the world after seeing it. Things look new and changed. You'll understand after that. Good day.

  • He is not a comedian! you people are dumb. he is just standing talking.

  • he is funnier than most proper stand ups

  • LEGEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • One of the coolest things I know now is that Henry Rollins jerks off. lol

  • Best i can sum it up as i fucking love him ;P

  • 'surreal conversation'..everybody has 'em..some more than others. I respect his brutal honesty puttin it all out there. all these things we're programmed to be "embarassed" to speak of. in these days of "political correctness" spread like a cancer, its refreshing. just talking about in front of a large audience must be freeing in itself

  • He says what he does is spoken word, just because there a few jokes thrown in doesn't make it a comedy show. And you know what? Too many jokes would water down the heartfelt messages he brings to his audience.

  • YT took down the cynical video. Fuck them up their stupid asses.

  • I think it's funny that everyone comments on Henry either being funny, or not being funny when he isn't even a comedian. He calls them talking shows for a reason. lol

  • Dane Cook + Robin Williams

  • @Dunl3y I definitely see the Robin Williams. Not so much Cook. He isnt Hyper enough.

  • 1:56 for a woman giving head to an invisible cock. Go.

  • not funny. : (

  • were gonna have a tv party tonight!

  • @happyhazelnut try henry rollins on being cynical. i agree this isn't his best work at all. but he has done some excellent stuff that seems to get slept on

  • @happyhazelnut

    I love Hicks, so trust me on this. Look up Henry Rollins speaking about McDonald's food, the guy at Subway, Horse Fuckers, Rave & Modern Rock, Dating, and the Iraq War. Just for a start. This is definitely one of Henry's weaker spots.

  • I guess I've been out of touch. I knew he was a writer and actor as well as the front man for Black Flag, but when did he become a punk George Carlin?

  • @dnggitg hahaha i guess thats kinda what he, a punk slightly more pissed off george carlin.

  • @cripplefriday because most are highly intelligent humans, that say it how it is, hence the similarity :)

  • @cripplefriday wow punk george carlin that is the most original thing i have ever read!!! fuc k you!!! your too cool for school 1. this isnt slapstick comedy 2. listening to someone make fun of their own life is funny to most :) the reason people like his stanup is most of us feel like its like our best friend is doing stanup just telling stories and thats why people laugh...go watch 2 and a half men or any funny or die skit to get what is considered "cool humor" now and tell that to your friend

  • @1protsky and i didnt mean friends it wasnt meant to plural !!!!!! :) :):)

  • ABSOLUTELY HILLARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!

  • he looks like Wilson from House

  • He's no Mitch Hedberg, but he's more like an on-stage entertainer. I wonder if he would get pissed if someone yelled out a Black Flag song.

  • Lol he sounds like Kasey Kasem when hes pretending hes the neighbor.

  • 50 people have their dick the seize of the dislike bar

  • 4:24 woman claps like a seal.

  • He looks so skinny! lol

  • wow hes actually hilariouse

  • When i grow up i wanna be Henry Rollins

  • I am pleasantly surprised to find out that Henry Rollins is so funny xD. 

  • Makes me feel better about myself to hear the lead singer of my favorite band say he's lonely; even if it isn't true.

  • what the fuck happened to henry feckin  sell out

  • @markmc72 ur fuckin idiot

  • @griffin456456456

    Alas your grammar and lack of spelling ability suggests you my friend are the idiot, i should have made my opinion a lot clearer in the post i made . I Admired Henry Rollins for his full on rock escapdes..... his tawdry comedy sketches are less than polished and in fact demean him

  • @markmc72 Isn't that what makes it genuine? He isn't a comedian, he is a spoken word guy, there is a different, he is sharing conversations with people who are interested. often times its aimed at being funny sometimes its aimed at being heavy. They aren't "comedy" sketches.

  • @Coldmystery

    Genuine??? am not sure about , but i do take your comments on board, he isnt a natural comic...it may be funny in an ironic way......... and i do apologise for calling the clip 'comic sketches' you are correct they arent sketches

  • @markmc72 hahha ha my lack of grammar what exactly did you say before? oh yeah "what the fuck happened to Henry feckin sell out", And you decide well I'm gonna put on the big fuckin smart guy act to make this guy feel like an idiot because its the internet and you can be whoever you want, come back when you have a valid argument on why Henry is a sell out you fuckin cunt!

  • @markmc72 thanks for shutting the fuck up

  • yes, he do influenced people... he also shape a music scene... especially punk rock scene...

  • got to love being around nuts! 

  • well i didnt once once help shape a musi scene but i did once eat a whole wheel of cheese and poop in a pepsi machine

  • don't shoot him shoot the other guy!!

  • Oh, man, Henry, I don't wanna know how you jerk off man!! %-D

  • We have alot in common hahaha i dig this motherfucker man hes funny as fuck

  • @baddmanaz

    dudes made a living going round the world trying to be funny. what have you done in your lifetime? infulenced anyone? helped shape a music scene? writen any books?

  • @cripplefriday Written anything worthwhile? Stayed for HOURS aft doing a show like this one to meet & talk to EVERY fan waiting for you? Allowed pictures to be taken of you w/them? Made 1000s of people LAUGH w/out even really trying to be funny? THAT is what real character is.

  • @cripplefriday Since when is being accomplished a prerequisite for criticizing an entertainer? I am a huge fan of Rollins but seriously that's a played argument.

  • @cripplefriday he uses what he has, pretty amazing individual.... not that it matters, but he is.

  • @cripplefriday he influnced nirvana, and the melvins( who influenced tool and mastadon)

  • @baddmanaz maybe, it's YOU who doesn't have a very good sense of humour. Somehow, I find this vid funny and so does 400.000 people. So yeah, if you dont find this funny, go look for Jesus man.

  • @baddmanaz How about fuck off then if you dont like it

  • @baddmanaz to you hes not but for alot of us he is..

  • @baddmanaz

    He isn't a comedian. Lots of people make this mistake.

  • @baddmanaz That's your opinion jackass

  • Sounds like the synopsis of a David Lynch film. Nice.

  • @xjames118 strange, i thought the same exact thing while watching it.

  • If you watch the old interview when he was in Black flag... you will ask yourself.... HOW THE FUCK DID HE BECOME A COMEDIAN?

  • @arzama1 he's a really intense comedian though

  • @superf0b I know just saying how funny it is.

  • lets have a get to know eachother party! ha!

  • 45 people don't want to fuck on the floor and break shit

  • oh wait theres a part two....nevermind

  • what?! you never saw him again then what?!!!!!!!!!!!!!! damnit youtube!

  • I have met Henry 3 times...I have all of his books signed, and played video games w/Sim Cain in Phoenix in...ummm...LMAO....1997?? LOL...The last time the Rollins Band played Phoenix, I was there. I LOVE Henry. He is freaking BRILLIANT...gives great hugs...and has tried SOOO hard to get me to quit smoking and drinking. Alas, I still evade his advice...but OMG..he is just AMAZING. Insightful, intelligent, hilarious, etcetcetc infinity. I LOVE HENRY! GO HANK!!!! <3

  • if you watch a video and make dislike people jokes DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

  • @johnroiberts

    1 person thinks you need ta get a life..

    .......we can all fucking do it mate.

  • @cripplefriday

    More than one person, actually.

  • @cripplefriday  45 people wear crash helmets while jerking off

  • @mynameisdanrock your originality knows no bounds.

  • I would date him so fast

  • @Squishy876 i know you ;)

  • @PieceofMindmusic ha, yeah you do

  • Henry Rollins works in an office?

  • @Alienpelvis86 his personal office, he owns his own Publishing company

  • I'm starting to show a lot of his traits in myself, and I'm just a 13 year old girl.

  • @KittyNinjaPiper That's just a beautiful thing. Keep it up.

  • @KittyNinjaPiper

    that's likely one of those traits that he wants, but did not think he could say it on record.

  • It's true that Americans and Brits have a different sense of humour which probably explains why I don't find American comedians funny, but this guy is hilarious LOL.

  • @SebbeSucksBawlz This guy is a posturing twat. That's why you find him hillarious.

  • @BennOliverr Certainly more interesting than you

  • @okpg123 that's fucking stupid...these cliches aren't funny

  • FUCKIN ROLLINS=D

  • You should make this one clip now.

  • Henry Rollins is just some guy.....

  • Chinstrap.

  • There is no God but Music, and Henry Rollins is His prophet.

  • @Sche13e That's funny man

  • @lukevertiis God damn it.

    7 months after my retarded bro posted this comment, I'm still getting comments from people.

  • clapping 4:23 :-) :-) :-)

  • How could he be let in by the neighbour if he they apparently died, you can clearly tell that the guy operating on the window has the wrong house.

  • Crash Helmet for safety purposes is awesome

  • He would NOT say "runnin' like a mother fucker", to the cops.

  • @999ReaperIII I AGREE HAVE BEEN A PERSON THAT KNOWS HENRY SINCE 1980 HE KNOWS BETTER BUT HE DOSE JUSTICE TO POETIC LICENSE

  • Comment removed

  • @999ReaperIII Then you do not know nor have never seen Henry Rollins. Douche.

  • @999ReaperIII Then you do not know nor have never seen Henry Rollins...

  • @999ReaperIII ive said worse, ALOT worse, they just asked me to please keep the language calm........i didnt....then they fixed my problem

  • "And all these obtuse terms, means we just get to put our hands up your ass any time we we want. So just go on and be very afraid of us. We're the government. Fuck you."

    :D

  • 2nd rate Black Flag singer.

    3rd rate Charles Bukowski.

    4th rate Bill Hicks.

  • @JaEuerMeister

    1st rate Henry Rollins.

    Who are the 2nd and 3rd rate Bill Hicks?

  • @JaEuerMeister Cooler than you

  • I Love you, kisses hand I love you too

  • im about to have a nervous break down

  • I'm not much of a reader... WELL I'M NOT MUCH OF A DINNER BUYER GET OUT, GET OUT, GET OUT, GET OUT!! :)

  • i am HASSAN!!!!

  • God..I love this man!!

  • I really don't get why so many people on YouTube hate Henry Rollins? The bigger issue, of course, being why so many people who apparently hate him are bothering to watch his videos anyway.

    Were you mislead by the title?

    It seems very egomaniacal and self important to look up videos of people you hate just so you can shove your opinion down other people's throats.

  • @NothingSacred27

    "The bigger issue, of course, being why so many people who apparently hate him are bothering to watch his videos anyway."

    Excellent question.

    I think it's mostly that people with miserable lives like to make other people miserable, whenever possible

  • If this wasn't Henry Rollins, no one would think this was any good.

    Well, no, Dane Cook. But still. Henry Rollins isn't funny. His delivery is too forceful, like he knows this is a REALLY HILARIOUS STORY DUDE, you're gonna LAUGH SO HARD. Just calm down. Learn something about delivery and comedic timing.

    I still like your music though.

  • @Nkerklaan Until 3 days ago, he was just "that guy that shows up on VH1, talking about metal bands sometimes" to me. I think he's funny as hell. Sooo yeah, you're comment isn't entirely correct.

  • I had no idea he did stand up. Not only that, he's really go at it!

  • He sounds like George Carlin.

  • So cool !

    Thanks for this post.

  • Whatever Henry Garfield. Keep sellin' it baby. Plenty of 13 year old wannabe's eager to buy into your mythology you fucking boring twat.

  • God, He's such a talented guy. He went from working in a fucking Ice-Cream shop in the ghettos and look at him now, Poet, Author(a damn good one), Comedian, Vocalist for the greatest punk rock band ever. He's amazing.

  • This reminds me one time, I saw a man on the door trying to rob my house and for a moment I thought he was trying to fix/repair my door and cause I didn't know what to say I asked him: What are you doing? and he said: nothing, I'm leaving. ...True story.

  • I suppose to sum up his entire comedy career would be to say that it's a middle-aged man complaining about things he knows nothing about... I could also just go to a bar and listen to ex-husbands complain to their co-workers instead of watching this... haha i'm just kidding; i like to listen to funny things.

  • I didn't no Rollins was a stand-up comic.

  • @yada147258 Yeah too bad this washed up old man has more talent in his pinky than you will ever have in your whole being. This man was in one of the greatest punk bands ever, very talented singer, has enough intellect and humor to be a great stand up comedian, actor and many more. Can you do that shit cheese dick?

  • @yada147258

    I bet you wouldn't say that to him, in fear he'd punch you in the head and crack your skull

  • @yada147258 how is he washed up, i dont thijnk hes ever had the chance to be washed by anything.

  • @yada147258 You need a tampon? :(

  • @yada147258 You sound utterly retarded. Infantile much ?

  • I don't know if I love to hate him, or hate to love him, but goddamn...

  • hahahaha LA the video game

  • Henry here somehow reminds me of Dr Cox :D

  • Rollins called the pigs? is it me or is that the first sign of armagedon?

  • @redsuxh8r I KNOW RIGHT?

  • And that's how the helicopter went over my house. It's like LA... the video game...

  • wow... what a storyteller man

  • i said it before, I don't think he is that funny...but he is saying everything I think and say, but that I don't say quite as loud

  • Edited to add - I am a fan. You're great, intelligent and a wonderful entertainer.

    I have enjoyed you from Black Flag from Barwon Club of Geelong and your spoken word tours. You're great. Really.

    Just not of your WM3 ignorance.

    Supporters of child killers should take a bit more commitment, i.e. knowledge of the case.

    Think about it.

  • Dear Mr Rollins,

    You're pretty much entertaining, but that scream out laugh for anything you say?

    Especially mentioning the WM3, and the clapping afterward.

    I mean, really?

    The whole AUDIENCE shares your ignorance?

    I think not.

  • I wouldn't call this stand-up. its more like conversation you save for parties.

  • @AudioInklined its called spoken word, not all funny but he throws in jokes.

  • i love henry im only 20 years old and i know that im going to turn out just like that haha i already do sit at home and watch documentaries lol...and despite being told by several ppl i should model (and this isn't internet bullshit) i suck with relationships (i can bag a one nighter occasionally but actual gf's nope) coz as soon as i open my mouth and start telling them about the last doco i watched or the latest book i read by dostoyevsky they just stare at me like a weido hahahaha

  • @ytrewqasfd oh snap, you kinda sound like a male version of me.

  • one time at a party I was up all night, my friends passing out all around,

    About 6 am I go outline my body in chalk in the driveway, dripping little ketchup drops all over.

    I leave.

    Didnt talk to them for a week hahaha they freaked the hell out

  • I fucking love you Rollins.

  • if Henry is tired of bimbos he should move back to the east coast!
