Who's not funny? - sublime1983 - 01-12-2005 Maggers Wrote:It's the "lesbo" term that I find offensive. I hear it as a slur, and I don't like it.I may be a little slow, but isn't "lesbo" short for "lesbian?" I'm sorry for offending you, I didn't mean anything by it.

I thought so to, now we know better. As far as funny goes, Jim Carrey used to be, no more. David Spade is hillarious. Sam Kinison was classic. Brian Reagen and The Amazing Jonathon are my favorite stand-ups! Chris Farley was such a spaz I had to laugh! George Carlinwas great. Oh wait, This is who's not funny, I got carried away. My dislikes are: Rosanne Barr Rosie O'Donnal Eddie Murphy, now. I'm gonna be hated for this one, but Peter Sellers. Chris Rock. Polly Shore, seen him at the Improve and all he could do was gripe how Adam Sandler was getting all his parts. Carrot Top. All the Waynes brothers except Damon. and Tom Hanks, but I like his serious movies. Enough for now, comedy is so hit and miss, i doubt there is one comedien everyone would agree on. Some if seen on t.v. that didn't even make me chuckle, but live was a whole nother story.

"Lesbo" is short for lesbian, but it is considered derogatory, just as "homo" for homosexual man may be a short version of the word but is a slur. At least it's that way in NYC.

You made the right call. As for not funny -- Carrot Top. Ugh, ugh, ugh.

You made the right call. Willfully ignorant AND woefully out of touch. Agreed -- it was the right call. Ken V. Who's not funny? - Ken Valentine - 01-13-2005 Maggers Wrote:Most of the assorted SNL casts during the '80's Never saw Saturday Night Live in the '80's. After the first season it went rapidly down hill, and I stopped watching it. Ken V. Who's not funny? - Lisa - 01-13-2005 sublime1983 Wrote:Ouch. :confused: Take another look at your original reply. Read as is, it sounds pretty darn bigoted. Replace "lesbo" with another offensive word (n*gger, trailer trash, gun nut, wetback, etc) and you'll see what I mean. Lisa Who's not funny? - fpw - 01-13-2005 I find Ellen D. sweet and funny. Never saw Ellen, but the few times I've caught her talk show I've liked it. May I add Jason Alexander to the list? The only reason he was funny in Seinfeld was due to the writing -- and because he was aping Ralph Kramden. Who's not funny? - Kenji - 01-13-2005 He(She) is funny... Jack Black(School of Rock is really fun and excellent) Steve Martin John Belushi(He's dead, but his comedy spirits is still alive) Jim Carey He(She) was funny... Robin Williams Woopie Goldberg(except Sister Act2) Mike Myers Eddie Murphy(Funny his last movie was Show Time) Goldie Hawn He(She) is NOT funny... David Spade Chris Farley Tim Allen |
