    I'm going through a Ralphie May phase myself. But all time favorite would have to be Carlin and then Pryor and then Chapelle. Maria Bamford is one of the funniest female comediannes out today and Felicia Michaels stuff has nearly got me in trouble for laughing in my cube. Also mike Birbiglia is awesomeness...
