Comedians understand

This is one of my favorites.


There's a lot of truth in these others too.

I've heard more than once and from more than one source, that comedians are or should avoid college campuses which seems insane to me. College kids should be the ones that will laugh at anything and everything. It's us grumpy old "get off my lawn" guys that shouldn't be able to laugh at everything.

That's the answer. In "Mars Attacks" yodelling was the solution to solve the martian invasion.

In the invasion of folks that are offended by everything and want anything that offends them to be banned, I'll bet Andrew Dice Clay is the solution that would have the same end result as the yodelling in Mars Attacks.

I'm watching the third video first, because of Cleese and George. Brilliant.

"Maybe, If you think Jerry Seinfeld is politically incorrect, then you should look in the mirror."

Dayumnnnn!!!! LOL

Excellent and so damn true. People need to get over themselves. There’s no “right to not be offended”. Maybe I’m offended by your offense?

The last of his stuff that I tried to watch wasn't very funny at all. He'd gotten too political and/or preachy.

I believe taking offense is a choice. You aren’t offended by something unless you choose to be offended.

Listen to Eric Idle at around the 4:20 mark. It sounds like a psychological profile of why trolls are the way they are! Brilliant. I've often wondered why they are such blatant schmucks. It makes sense that they are wanting gratification as opposed to being passionate about their belief since they love the fight more than the expression of opinion.

The difference between those guys and most people is that they're funny.

A lot of people think they themselves are funny but are just arseholes who laugh at their own "jokes."

You sound like you are offended.

Yep, he's funny, but watching this clip, there's still plenty of stuff for the snowflakes to get their panties in a bunch about.

Chappelle.

Not seeing it. He's a smarter man than that.

Nah, Chapelle is decidedly anti-PC and funny as hell. Kevin Hart, who I also find funny, has bowed to the PC police a few times recently.
