    I had a boss repeatedly accuse me of slying off for cigarettes, I started work ten minutes earlier than everyone else so I cold have a quick dart in the afternoon this was approved by the boss previous to him.The allegation was completely false, he just wanted a excuse to have a go at me.
    One time we had a team meeting and in front of everyone he decides to go again and said maybe you should give them up. That was it, I turned to him and said "Let's get this sorted it's legal to smoke and until it's outlawed I will continue to but cigarettes are doing two good things.... they are killing me and stopping me from killing you" the stunned silence that followed was deafening.

    Denis Leary toured with Bill Hicks, stole his material, and launched his career. Later, Bill Hicks died of cancer. Denis Leary’s debut album was called “No Cure for Cancer”.
    If you believe in “Karma”, then the story of Denis Leary and Bill Hicks might prove to be a rude shock for you. Bill Hicks and Denis Leary were friends and fellow comedian for many years. However, in 1993, Denis Leary released his album “No Cure for Cancer”. This album angered Hicks as Leary has feature lines and subjects similar to Hick’s routine in his own album. According to American Scream: The Bill Hicks Story by Cynthia True, Leary had practically taken line for line huge chunks of Bill’s act and recorded it. Due to this, their friendship ended abruptly.
    Later Hicks was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on June 16, 1993, and died on February 26, 1994. Denis Leary is now a famous actor, writer, producer, singer and comedian.

    Denis Leary lifted segments of Bill Hicks act, re-worded it and perfomed it at a faster tempo. Which led to people referring to him as Bill Hicks on speed.
    Material such as "jim fix, cigerette warnings, and heavy metal records backwards are just a few examples of entire segments he lifted from Bill Hicks act - he simply
    re-worded it. But he did write some genuinly good material of his own.
    I remember a few years ago a few friends came round to my house for a meal. Afterwards we sat down and played xbox.
    We got into a discussion and they happened to mention by pure chance that they had just seen leary's "no cure for cancer" stand up show.
    When i told them that Leary had stole alot of stuff off Bill Hicks they wouldn't believe me. So i showed them all of Bill Hicks stand up dvds skipping to the parts that i knew Leary had stole.
    Being die hard Leary fans they knew his material off by heart.
    When they saw Bill Hicks performing Learys act they thought the shows must have been done afterwards. I then showed them the exact dates the shows were performed as its written on the inside sleeve of the dvds.
    I proved to them that Hicks shows were done years before Learys.
    They were forced to admit i was right. (Grudgingly).

I mean if you look at his first album or two and compare it to Bill Hicks there is no debate, he was definitely ripping him off. Then look at his album, Lock N Load. That came out a few years after Bill Hicks died. It is terrible. That doesn't necessarily prove anything, but it is definitely a point against Leary.

    Bill Hicks and Dennis Leary I think are both very good. Hicks delivery is more relaxed but Leary's is very in your face. I think they both had a lot of similar material. I thought I heard something that said even though Leary stole stuff from Hicks on No Cure For Cancer Hicks stole a lot of stuff from Leary in their early stand up days. BTW joke theft is not a new thing.

    Denis Leary, Bob Saget, George Carlin and Robin Williams.
    All four of them were very vulgar comedians, but all four of them were well known to children in the 90's for cleaner roles. Joe Pesci, although not a comedian, was also a vulgar character who was well known to children in the 90's.

    Anyone notice that all the people who suck up to Leary write their comments just like Leary would speak...? Including words like "pal" or adding unnecessary question marks. Bottom line Leary started out as a hack - stealing from any comic he could. And yes that included Bill Hicks, Louis CK and dozens more. You know what I'm sick of? People saying that Bill Hicks being dead suddenly means that he doesn't matter. Can't wait for Leary to be dead, then I can at least say "he's dead get over it!".

    Stand up comedy is a nasty industry away from the limelight. Like the alter ego of humanity on a bad day. Dennis Leary, back then, is like a bar cover band playing other people's songs without crediting and putting a personal spin on, except nobody in the audience has heard the original material, assuming it's his. Leary's act is a complete theft of Bill Hicks, and later ripped off the ripoff in "No Cure for Cancer."
    Richard Pryor got big by ripping off Bill Cosby's early stuff. Robin Williams ripped off George Carlin. Many times in stand up clubs individual performers have descended into brawls over material theft. The performers, handing at the laughs, punching each other in the parking lot.
    The jokes and laughs are the silver lining of a dark, venomous profession.
    No question Leary is funny. His drive-through voice box schtick is priceless. But it wouldn't happen without Hicks. Hicks blazed the trail that Leary and others walked down after.
    The best original stand up comics go straight for perceived social taboos to tear to pieces. Social custom draws a line in the sand and says don't cross this, the great comics obliterate the line, those that drew it and what's being concealed. Takes fearless courage and confidence. Leary is a follower to Hicks' leader.

      I'm in Scotland and most of the young folk here do, many only when they smoke hash (tobacco and hash joints). Those that don't, vape. Adults? 50/50. Every shop or pub has a cloud of cigarette smoke outside it.
      Sad but true.
