Ditto. It was a proper roast and the lame press core deserved it (especially CNN and CNBC). Roasts are suppose to be cringe-worthy. And those who were targeted, but couldn’t even laugh at themselves, only confirmed that there was more truth than exaggeration (for humor’s sake) in Wilmore’s jabs.

I just watched the whole thing and I loved every minute of it. I’m a middle age (42) white liberal white lady, and I’m wondering what the fuck is going on with the audience. Good for Larry pushing harder.

I thought he was fucking hilarious too. That crowd needs to pull the sticks out of their asses.

I can’t name one effective surrogate who’s been campaigning for Bernie.

Yup! Not a single glorious fuck was given by Larry. And the best part was that Obama seemed to really enjoy it. Maybe minus the drone bit - but alas, that was fully deserved.

I also loved how Larry Wilmore did not give a single fuck about the audience. He straight up did not care about their opinion or their reactions except to laugh at them for being a tough (white) crowd.

People are fucking weird. This was HILARIOUS. And all the more so by how many complete cringe worthy moments there were, of all these media people being entirely unable to laugh at them selves. Did you guys see Blitzer’s face?? If eyes could kill, Larry would be dead. Dead, I tell ya.

No. It used to be pretty common. The idea of telling women to smile more is actually a lot more recent.

I voted for Hillary for a whole host of reasons. 1. I think she’s the most qualified candidate by a longshot. 2. I think she’s got a good balance of idealism and pragmatism. 3. Bernie’s populism is appealing to me, but I can’t see any way for his rhetoric to translate into action with Congress as we have it. 4. I…

I’ve gathered you’re quite popular around here, so I’m probably going to get my ass handed to me for even asking you this, BUT:

I’m a southerner. That was a perfectly executed “bless your heart,” 10/10 would bless.

As an Alabama native, I gasped when I read that skillfully deployed “bless your heart.” I can only imagine that it was launched with a twisted, condescending smirk, and that possibility warms the bitchy cockles of my heart. Well DONE, Miss Lady.

First photo looks like she just realized she agreed to sleep with Donald Trump to save America.

I would guess from the “neutral” argument, saying “pro-life” and “pro-choice” gets confusing because then they are both “pro”s. And “pro-life” and “anti-choice” are the same side of the coin. “Anti-abortion” and “pro-abortion rights” are opposites.

I guess in five years a comedian is going to make a joke about it and suddenly it will go viral

what if... that were the obvious point of this essay
