You're only running your fucking mouth like that because the internet. You don't know enough about me to equate me to any kind of people.


Sometimes things are not really a joke. Sometimes they are. I'm referring to a standup where Cross' button-pushing seemed like he was intending to be racist versus using slurs for an effect.

The idea that a joke (or any statement) can't also be a very real statement on what someone believes about a group of people is silly. People do it all the time. I didn't say I hated that style of humor. I didn't even say that David Cross shouldn't be able to make those kind of jokes. I was making the point that there are occasions where the intent of a joke seem more malicious than humorous or observational.

I still watch Louis CK and Russell Peters. I don't fuck with David Cross because I find some of the intent of his comedy to be suspect.

If you fuck with it fine. To each his own.
