If the most vindicating evidence they could come up with is basically textbook responses to abuse, I have a feeling there probably isn’t a better explanation coming.

Yeah, the "I shouldn't have grabbed your phone" part screamed victim of abuse to me. Unless the next part of that read, "because I lost my balance and smashed my face on the ground" it certainly sounds like a victim apologizing to their abuser.

It’s always extra said when standups joke about stuff that seems to be part of an act, like Ali wanting to cheat on her husband all the time, and then they break up. Like Mitch Hedberg joking about “I’m not gonna stop doing something because of how it makes me feel LATER...” Kinda rough listening to these bits now.

I don’t normally get emotionally involved in celebrity relationships, but I was sad when I saw Ali Wong’s divorce. I met her husband at one of her shows (hell, he was in the lobby selling her t-shirts).

Sir, this is an Applebees.

Well if it makes you feel any better, there’s no karate in Shang-Chi.
