Some stoned people are funny.  Some are curiously annoying.

Then it was just wrong-headed from the beginning, and perhaps getting laughs from the phrasing alone, which was enough to keep it.  Fine.  I wasn't thrilled with it, however.

I concur.  While the smaller, individual detailed observations are delivered with the same kind of poetic (?) skill, the overall concepts tended to fall flat and not connect.  For instance, ultimately linking an encounter with a fat man ordering ham at a Pavilion's deli with a 12 Monkeys reference is interesting, but

I don't find Tig Notaro to be particularly funny.  Therefore, I assume she gets a lot of extra points from some people for her minority sexuality.

Of course.  Humor is often much more appreciated by those individuals who are relevant.

There are others who would argue that the notion that the silly U.S. Constitution will always be limited in its scope by the theoretical intentions its original creators is faulty at its core, since the document was inherently designed to allow for unforeseen future changes in legal, social, and commercial

Everybody gets paid according to what they contribute to the process.  I don't have any problem with that.

And I'm sure he was paid to work on the title, per his contract and the going rate of the day.  He cashed his paycheck, and perhaps bought food or booze with it.  Then came a longer list of people working hard to buy and sell the completed paid-for work/concept, until eventually due to a shift in cultural interests,

I believe the U.S. Federal Government would differ with you as to what is "totally legal," since it is still very actively involved in a multi-billion dollar War on Drugs which includes marijuana.  And according to that silly U.S. Constitution, Article IV:

According to some sources, this gentleman is a 502 Bad Gateway.

Are you accusing the contributors of this article with having tunnel vision and a limited appreciation for creative expressions within a certain limited entertainment category, as if they were all of a kind of inbred hive mind reinforced by their common socioeconomic status?

Don't make me laugh.

It's probably in Burbank.  Those kind of things are always in Burbank.

A lot of people vying to take credit for a little comic book nonsense.  That's what this world has become.

I hardly think that because somebody with enthusiasm and salesmanship comes along and takes a basic idea and turns it into something profitable while the original creator could have left it languish in worthlessness that qualifies as somebody getting "screwed."  Just because a person creates something doesn't

What about anything?

The Internet is cultural cheese stuck to the top of the Zeitgeist Pizza delivery box.

Try to get a job like that these days and you have 1,000 Harvard graduates applying ahead of you.  There are far, far too many people in the world these days, with not enough work for them to do.
