I 100 percent believe it.

John Mulaney used to fuck with Bill Hader doing Stefon by swapping out references on the cue cards. Not all of it... there were certain rehearsed bits that Hader had to practice, but he'd throw in a Dan Cortez and other stupid shit and Hader would break and it was awesome.

I'm certain I posted it on AofG back in the day so my due diligence is accounted for here.
Yeah, I've never seen that video.

There's a solid chance I saw it and just don't remember. I used to have an incredible memory, but I'm slipping.

Watched the Shane Torres (the guy most know for the Guy Fieri/Anthony Bourdain bit) special "The Blue Eyed Mexican" over the weekend.



Thought it was pretty funny, but something about his delivery is a bit odd to me.

I showed Kelli that clip and she reminded me that he opened for Bert when we saw him in September. I didn't remind her I literally don't remember any of that show thanks to the two Cheba Hut long islands I had beforehand. I'm just glad he didn't do this bit.

Yeah, he opened for Bert on his most recent tour. And Bert and his wife were the producers on that special.

New Chappelle on Netflix..Dreamers was okay. 3.5/5 from me. Some moments were very good and others missed. Some would have been better as Chappelle Show skits.

I don't have a real issue with that. Comedians working on new material don't want their stuff getting posted before it's ready (and they potentially lose the ability to tour on it/put it in a special).

This, however...

Fuck you Giff. Funny how you came to a show and laughed at everything i did, but im an awful person because i defend a fellow comics right to tell whatever jokes he wants. Just fuck you for being a closeminded piece of shit human being. Fuck you for mentally labeling me some kind of bigot, and fuck you for this chip on your shoulder you continuously carry for me. I've literally done nothing to you except give my opinion on the industry i literally work in. Im sorry you think the LGBTQIA+ community should have blanket immunity from all jokes. Unfortunately Joke Czar isn't an official position in america. I havent' posted in here in like a year and im still occupying real estate in your head why?

Just for fun i went and listened to the tape of the set i did where you came and enjoyed yourself. In that set i made fun of the following

People with autism
People with epilepsy
people with parkinsons
pedophiles
people who commit incest
Diabetics
Promiscuous women
greg abbott being disabled
people with small penises
asian sex workers
people who have been roofied
children who accidentally ingested semen

All of thats okay with you, you voiced zero moral objections, but trans jokes make someone the devil. Shut the entire fuck up you hypocrite

For the most part yeah. There is so much stuff that is said from a stage or through your tv screens that is a) funny and b) would get you punched in the throat if you said it face to face to someone in a not-joking manner.

That punching down defense is so fucking stupid. Like does that mean some white dude can get up and make racial jokes but if a friend says "yeah, he doesn't think he's better than anyone else", its good? You don't get to define the hierarchy, it just exists.
