Interesting twitter thread

The 2 comedians she mentioned aren't fucking funny. They made a career over this kinda stuff and it doesn't work anymore. Maybe they need to start doing alt-right shows or something. I can't feel bad for these white men who made a career when real funny people couldn't. There are some white women who fall into this category too. Amy Schumer.

Well Dane Cook can just fuck right off.

Well, there's another reason to hate Dane Cook.

[turnipthebeet]

He made his account private?

And we are fragile?!?

After I read this earlier, I looked up Jamie Kennedy to see if it was the same dumb comedian I remember hating in high school/college. Ding, ding, ding.

Joking about rape? Never funny. In fact, it's fucking gross as hell.

I remember his hidden camera show. Had no idea he did stand up anymore. Yuck. Dane cook has always been trash, no?

Problem is, it's not just joking about rape. It's so fucking pervasive at all levels of comedy.

When researching a candidate who had applied to a position and I was going to help interview, I did a basic google search. He's a local stand-up comic, so I looked at some of his material. And it made me distinctly uncomfortable. Lots of "Oooh, I love going to the gym because I get to look at hot women in yoga pants" bullshit.

I forwarded it to the person doing the hiring going "Look, you make whatever decision you need to make, but I do not like this. At all."

Turns out the dude re-scheduled his interview TWICE and ghosted the 3rd time so suspicions confirmed I guess.

Th re was a thing at a Dane Cook show a few years back where he mocked some woman about rape or assault. Like she didn’t get the joke. I can’t recall the details but remember it being posted here.

Oh wait, that was Daniel Tosh.

Tosh about assault, Cook about Colorado movie shooting. Brand defending them. 🤦‍♂️
