Imagine writing a description of a Mitch Hedberg show. “He concluded with some brief non sequiturs about absurd and frankly unlikely situations. I guess you had to be there?”

You can argue whether he was a creep or not, but it was absolutely not sexual abuse in the 3rd degree. Either you didn’t read the original article (don’t, it’s so fucking terrible) or the New York statute you’re quoting.

I don’t even understand this article. Was Jezebel mad that Vulture changed their story to not ruin his comedy set, so they decided to rehash it to actively try to ruin it instead?

“vulture didn’t want to ruin his set, but we thought we’d jump in an ruin it anyway!” because reasons.

Aziz Ansari doesn’t deserve the level of vitriol directed at Louis CK et al. CK masturbated to his subordinates then blackballed them with his influence. Aziz Ansari thought he was getting a groupie one night stand, she thought it was a date. Neither of them clarified their expectations for the night. He was an

This seems like an unneccessary article

This is the dumbest fucking post I’ve yet seen in the year of our lord 2018. You could take Richard Pryor’s most killer material and distill it down in a snarky and offputting blob of text and make it sound like he was a shitty comedian. The purpose of this post is clearly to try to put Ansari back up on that cross of

I say this in a way that is divorced from Aziz or the woman victimized:

You’re making fun of a comedian because.... his jokes are less funny in print than they are delivered?  The fuck is this bs?

this post probably never would have been considered newsworthy enough to print”

The problem here wasn’t harassment, it’s that aziz couldnt satisfy this random groupie, who then felt vindictive about the wasted evening and lashed out. Let’s call a spade a spade and let the man move on with his life, and hopefully he learns how to use his dick for the better.

Was Ansari ever really shunned though? As far as I know, his show wasn’t cancelled and there seemed to be a general consensus that the Babe article was shitty journalism and that what was described in it hardly rose to the level of #metoo worthy outrage, and that we needed to have a conversation about how he acted

He was really good at standing on the Capitol steps expressing concern with a bunch of cameras in his face before he went back in and voted like a good Republican.

Oh yeah, that’s right.

Let’s not forget “Swift Boat” either.

Don’t worry, Rand Paul has taken on the part of “displaying principled outrage, and then capitulate and fall in line after getting publicity” for Republicans.

This is definitely the piece I expected to read here today. An honest, often brutal, look at the life of the man behind the “Maverick” myth. It sucks that he died, but he fucked this country A LOT in his time in congress. Thank you for your service to this country Senator McCain, but that does not make you a saint.

My only hope is that the president ignores the wishes of him and his family and delivers the eulogy at the funeral... hopefully pushing Meghan away from the mic before going off on a 90 min. speech about how great his presidency is and unhinged rants about the investigation. All while ignoring the person in the box. 

He gave us Sarah Palin, which helped birth the Tea Party, which helped get us into the current travesty that is our national politics. I hope he had the fortune to die peacefully, but I’m not shedding any tears.
