What's the deal with this? Do older people think it's funny?

Did he hurt your precious snowflake feelings by telling it like it is? Toughen up buttercup, you can learn a lot from your elders if you quit whining and listen.

Pretty much. My grandparents used to love him.

I used to see him quite a bit at Friday Night Live.

Never read one worthwhile thing from him.

I'm guessing you've never read his articles. They're about old people with goofy little tales of childhood writing in. I don't understand the point

You have his picture as your avi and you aren't familiar with him?

He actually doesn't write a column per se, he just transcribes the messages left on his voice mail.

I don't know what he is being paid, but it's too much.

The point is to put down your iPod and get off the Facebook and actually read something and try to learn. People used to talk to each other and interact, now y'all just FaceTime and tinder your lives away until you're all alone and nobody cares about you enough to call on your birthday. That's what's wrong with your generation.

There really doesn't have to be a point. It's just something older people enjoy to read and respond to and his column has been around for years. And it is very easily avoidable if you don't enjoy it...

I'm sure he's a nice guy but it's just the same "joke" or whatever every week. I guess older folks are easily entertained

Typical millennial response. Y'all are ruining this country that we built

I'm no reader of his, but just about anything labelled comedy, especially by today's standards, can also be considered redundant.

Like others have said, how hard is it to just avoid the column?

Yes. Older people read him religiously. Now you'll see some of those people on the Old Pictures of Baton Rouge Facebook group.
Their 'contributions' are annoying and often wrong as frick(when recalling a place or event in BR).
