Yeah, there’s a bunch of pearl clutching going on.

I’ve made this argument on Jez to much (obvious) contention but really, I just don’t think comedy is for progressives. Modern progressives are too sensitive and go into viewing entertainment with a list of boxes to check for groups and subgroups and sub-subgroups that shouldn’t be “offended.”

Comedy is wrought from tension and subverted expectations. You can’t achieve that by simply saying things that people want to hear. His comments about Cosby show some genuine self-reflection and acknowledgement of how torn he is on seeing one of his heroes fall so far. Artists - comics especially - have no requirement…

How mature and brave of you. Does your arm get tired from patting yourself on the back for such heroism? I deplore the president but his saying “give him a chance” is not an admission of support. By no means deplorable enough to never listen to a historically great comic again.

I watched Spin last night, and Rich is leaving out a key part of the Cosby commentary - that being it was a callback to a joke done earlier in the show concerning a superhero who resorts to rape to maximize his “powers,” setting up a moral conundrum of “he rapes, but he saves lives.”

This wasn’t Andrew Dice Clay…

Let’s just remember that he has a valuable legacy that I can’t just throw away. I remember that he’s the first black man to ever win an Emmy in television. I also remember that he’s the first guy to make a cartoon with black characters where their lips and noses were drawn proportionately. I remember that he had a…

Did she just refer to me as a bitch?

I remember watching the Newlywed Game as a very little girl. I was so embarrassed for those contestants and simply couldn’t imagine married life while watching it.

He looks like the dipshit Home Alone burglar who isn’t Joe Pesci

“Hey look a lady! I’m gonna rape her- oh, no, wait... she went into the girls room. Dammit. Foiled again!”

Oh for fuck’s sake.

I never understood the premise or the appeal of that show. I don’t care how freakin’ romantic Vincent was - he was a weird lion-lookin’ guy who lived in the sewers during New York’s skeeviest era. But some people were incredibly into it, including the dude who drove around my town in a Ford Fiesta entirely covered…

I’ve always liked Sandra Bullock but I kinda side-eyed her for marrying this guy. Not because he’s a cheating cheater, obviously that is 100% his fault, but because he’s a white supremacist.

Apparently I’m of the unpopular opinion that “yessss” and “yaaaayyyy”

That’s the face of a lactose intolerant person who just drank a full fat milk latte.

Sorry to drop my own tweet but I still stand by it.

I loved this disaster of an episode. But refusing to eat seafood at Galatoire’s is a crime in itself. Clearly Katie just wants to get married and Tom is too weak willed to break up with her.

Schwartz and Sandoval should be married and raising kids together. No one loves and supports each of them as much as the other one does. Obviously they would sleep with other people. 

Of all the hairs to split....
