To be the Dane Cook of something means to appear as though you have a certain level of mastery in your field usually due to status or popularity but upon closer examination there is very little coherence or substance.

Opinions of Dane Cook's comedic talent vary greatly. The rational however is that during his performances Mr. Cook gives out a lot of energy and expresses himself with wild movements giving the illusion that he is funny. Upon closer examination however, his material seems shallow and contains very little substance.

This was popularized by the TV Show Archer where the main character Archer describes Karate as the Dane Cook of martial arts.

Also, during a Family Guy episode where two generic characters are attending Mr. Cooks performance one character asks the other if Dane Cook had actually said something funny, to which he other character responds, that he since he is moving around a lot, he must have.

Dane Cook's Disease 

Dane Cook's Disease, or DCD, is neurological disorder where a person takes on the attributes of actor/comedian Dane Cook. Symptoms include: overexateration of one's movements and speech, beginning every sentence with the words "And everyone does this, right?" and telling long, pointless stories with no punchlines.
Bob: Did you see that guy over there? He was exagerating that really long, unfunny story.

Dave: It looks like he probably suffers from Dane Cook's Disease.

Dane Cook 

The Gallagher of our generation. Dane Cook is a "comedian" that everyone seems to love despite his extreme mediocrity. His amazing lack of jokes combined with his ability to run around the stage like a five-year-old without his meds appeals to anyone without a soul or any knowledge of comedy. His trite and obvious observations contain no punchlines and often appeal to people with short attention spans.
You ever go into the bathroom and everything is WET? The floor is wet! The counters are wet! Everything's wet!

-Dane Cook

Uh... could it be because people piss on the floor and wash their hands aggressively?

Dane Cook 

I accidentally saw this person on TV. He was telling how he used to be ugly but now is handsome with women falling all over him. He also told other "jokes."

Since I have not seen him on TV in many months, I suddenly missed his brand of absolutely no talent. Today I decided to write a short poem about the "comedian" known as Dane Cook.
I once saw Dane Cook on TV
Irritating the heck out of me
I watched in a trance
As he made faces and pranced
And asked myself, "What morons are paying good money to watch this crap?"

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
