Dane Cook’s vanilla antidote

Dane Cook doesn’t care if you believe the haters. When asked about complaints last year at his West Hollywood apartment complex that he never picked up after his dog, Beast, the comic told The Post’s Mandy Stadtmiller: “Sometimes I like letting people think these things. We settled that out of court . . . I was not evicted . . . I went out willingly.” Cook, who’s playing this year’s New York Comedy Festival, compared himself to other targets on the Internet: “You look at like a Kanye or an Eminem, when people are discussing you . . . even when it’s a slam or some thing . . . I think it keeps you from being vanilla. You’re doing something right.”
