Carlos Mencia: Not For The Easily Offended

by Rory L. Aronsky

Carlos Mencia's comedy reaches out to those who are hindered by "societal standards," but want so badly to say what he says.

On stage, Carlos Mencia is self-conscious about his comedy, but not self-conscious as in, "Do you like this so far? Am I doing well? Can you relate to this?" He is self-conscious in testing his audience, finding out who is offended by what and then making a joke out of it.
