Yeah but you also kinda gotta stay away from rape references too. That's more common sense than pc.

I would love to see the facial reactions of people like this when they hear Anthony Jeselnik's standup.

I agree, but damn how about people just let it go instead of racing to Twitter to see if they can be the first to be "outraged"

I laughed. Nothing wrong with making a joke out of a dickhead. Fricking snowflakes, I swear.

Isn't that the whole problem?

That women were afraid "to go there?"

Isn't this the Anti-Caligula moment in our society where power doesn't give you a free pass to be a degenerate criminal. Everybody should be bringing this story up - not poo-pooing it and saying...ah he can't talk about that.

And it's sad that we have to laugh "awkwardly" at something that is actually pretty funny...and a joke that every single one of us would say in front of our friends. Unfortunately, Al had a microphone and a few million people watching. 30 years ago, we laugh it off and move on.
