Daniel Tosh is one of those comedians you will or love or hate, depending on what your sense of humor is, if you think you can laugh with everything or not. Frankie Boyle is also one of those comedians, or Ricky Gervais even though his jokes are a bit more polished and passable for a bigger audience. Daniel Tosh tells it like it is, he says exactly what passes his mind and what he thinks is funny. Luckily for me I laugh at everything he says, guess I have the same sick sense of humor. If you're easily offended, or if you don't get that sometimes laughter is the best medicine for everything, even the harsh jokes, then maybe you shouldn't watch his show because it's full of sarcasm, in fact it's only sarcasm, but I love it!

Definitely Not P.C.

Warning: Spoilers
I located this DVD at my local library, and chose the uncensored version which runs just a little over 1 hour. It's a Stand-up Special that Tosh did for Comedy Central, which he performed in July 2015 at The Wilshire Ebell Theater, in Los Angeles.
I guess I've been "living under a rock" because I had never heard of Tosh before, but I do like, as a rule, dark humor so I figured I would give it a try. I realize that regarding humor it's to each their own, so I'll just give my impressions.
To me, Tosh's humor is certainly fearless and intentionally offensive, with very explicit language and numerous sexual references. His timing was excellent, but the bottom line for me is no matter how daring and non-P.C. it is, how funny is it? There were some laughs along the way, but much of the humor was more cringe worthy and mean-spirited than funny, in my opinion.
So the end result, prepare to be shocked and offended, and you'll have to determine for yourself how funny it all is.
