1. i know its unpopular, but i have to speak out
I LIKE ADAM AND I THINK HE'S FUNNY.

even if his latenight show stinks.

he's a role model for us mediocre carpenters. he gives us hope that we can have a giant house, and a garage full of fancy sports cars.

2. Carpenters rock
It's great watching things being built.

But Adam Carolla should have stuck with carpentry, because quite frankly, he's giving you guys a bad name.

3. Complete and total suckage.
Unbridled suckitude.

Heretofore unheard of amounts of suckage that should really be considered illegal.

6. So much suckage that he's a ( here we go-I'm about to one-up your analogy)
Adam Carolla is like a porcelain blackhole. He sucks the talent out of everyone around him, and none of it sticks.

7. So comedically challenged
He couldn't find anything funny to do with a bus load of nuns and a crate of bananas.

4. I've been waiting for his deal with the devil to expire for years now.
His career seems to be based on being around his friends, making snarky comments. Hell, I do that all the time, and it's nothing to base a career in show business on.

His show on Comedy Central is PAINFUL.

That said, he's probably a pretty cool guy to hang with. I don't think he's a bad guy necessarily, and at times he's worth a snicker. But, overall, I don't get why he's on TV.

5. Gilbert Godfrey without the timing or sophistication
How do people like that get shows? I just don't understand.

12. Holy jesus!
That's one well-built freak. Obviously he's tired of being picked on for being carrot-top.

Yet, the fringes around his skin suggest it's a photoshop. Sure, it could be all him, but I doubt that picture was taken at the gym. THe background is also in focus, which would require a long exposure, which is equally unlikely.

13. carrot top is a gym rat.
compulsive weight lifter. from what i've heard. you can see he's pretty well built when he's onstage.

disclaimer: although i support adam carolla, i will not defend carrot top further than repeating celeb gossip i've heard.

11. He's about as compelling as a mole on your lower back that you'll never
see.
