So, do all attendees submit photos of what they're going to wear for Anna Wintour's approval? And did she approve Kim Kardashian's disaster sofa look last year? I think not.

Well timed, but Jones completely missed what made it well timed: massa Donald Sterling, and "things were better for blacks in the slave days" Cliven Bundy. She was too lazy to make the connection that would have made it funnier AND potent.

Sorry, disagree: and if you're a comedian and you're going to broach the subject of basketball and slavery this week without touching on Donald Sterling and Cliven Bundy, then you're just lazy.

Well stated. Plus, she brought up basketball players to boot. All she had to do was start singing "Mammy", and the act would have been complete.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I cannot star you enough.

Had Jones made the joke once and been brief about it, then moved on, it might have worked.

If you don't realize that words like funny, delicious, entertaining and beautiful are all subjective, then I don't know what to say. Perhaps I should have prefaced what I wrote with "I feel" or "I think" - but I thought it was clear that, as I was the one writing, that I was stating my opinion.

And I can only speak for myself. I thought the fact that posts have names on them to denote who wrote them made that clear.

But the joke went on too damned long and stopped being funny (like many SNL sketches).

But the absurdity works for about five seconds. She didn't develop the idea, so she ended up sounding like Cliven Bundy.

The main problem is that Jones' bit just was not funny: if she's going to tackle something heavy like this, she needed to illuminate the subject. As it was, she just seemed to be cooning.

My apologies. I should have written "edibles" as a noun, not "edible" as a verb. Sorry (and "mailable" rather than "mailable")...

Oh, and I believe psychological injury would probably be more of a civil matter: if the underlying prank was not a crime (in that the cupcake ingredients are all things edible), then infliction of emotional distress would not be a mailable offense.

Again, if the ingredients were indeed poisonous, then she would be guilty of assault: and I would agree with that verdict. That has not been established.

How would someone be arrested for serving you mayonnaise, soy sauce, etc.?

The fact that this wasn't shooting someone is why I'm clapping.

Different levels of revenge: had it really been what she'd initially told them it was, it would have been bad.

But the redneck demo tag is unfair: all the Hallyday fans I know have never exhibited any racism toward me...and I lived amongst francophones (Belgian and French) for the majority of my adult life.

Again, I run with a different crowd...and I have actually been to a Hallyday concert, which was an experience, I tell you: he had definitely seen better days, but the audience was packed and they showed him love. Also, the other people in the audience were welcoming to me and showed me nothing but warmth, which is
