you telling me a shrimp fried this rice: global phenomenon

Comments

Comedians decades ago when audiences didn't like their material: "Hmmm...guess I need to write new material."

Comedians now when audiences don't like their material: "Everyone is so easily offended! Wokeism is killing comedy! My job is to Push The Envelope & y'all just can't handle it!"

I've said this before but when bo burnhams inside came out the internet was wall to wall with memes, clips, audios, references, remixes. when transphobic comedians released their bs conservatives crowed that they won the culture war but i never saw a single quote from any of their shows.

if their jokes are so good why aren't you telling them

I remember the same point being said about Chappelle’s new stand ups.

Ask them to quote a joke and they’ll just quote The Chappelle Show cause nobody cares about his terf self.

I don't know where he stood politically, but Mitch Hedberg standups get quoted still. I use them, and I occasionally hear them in the wild as well.
