liberals are intrinsically somewhat funnier tho

liberals = better educated
smarter people "get" more jokes, tell better jokes
Suck on THAT stereotype, red-staters!

(of course, their lines were written by left-leaning folks on tv shows created by left-leaning folks)

Kelsey Grammar is a rightwing asshole

Wasn't the dude who played Bunker a left winger?

Kelsey Grammer read whatever lines were put into his mouth for a paycheck.

Smoking bans in cinemas(theaters in the USA. We spell the wrong word incorrectly, like English wasn't complicated already. Joy -_-) is something I'm all for, if it's done by the owner.
It's actually interferes with the projection. That's fucking STUPID. "Well, I think I'll ruin this movie in general so I can relax a little more..."

I'm all for there being non-smoking establishments. Even that being the majority! I mean, most people don't smoke. It just makes sense for smokers to have fewer places to go.
Thing is, if I'm going to see a noise band in a dive bar, what happens is 50%+ of the audience is rotating 5-15 peoplee at a time in and out the door, getting more and more annoyed.
It actually never bothered me that much(I kinda like the cold and how that neighborhood looks) but other people tended to get sick of trying to mark their territory, protect their drinks, take turns being the chair-watcher and spending alot less time listening to the music.

That's the only personal problem I have. It just makes me sad to see bands I like miss out being heard.
But it was more what I mentioned earlier.
I'd prefer to play in a place that allows smoking. it's the audience I want to play for. *shrugs* I have to sellte for the place where the most people are standing outside in the dead of winter ;)

Oh good lord that Limbaugh clip is bad - it's like a sketch some staffers would do write for a political fundraising dinner.

Good point. I ramble like an old man.... -_-

I wasn't aware smokers were a separate audience.

He's just saying he doesn't want people leaving during his show.

is that seriously the best cigar in the oval office joke they could come up with?

i have gone from laughing at how bad this show looks to already feeling kind of sorry for it before the first episode ever airs.

― Rick Gibralter (grady), Friday, 16 February 2007 03:14 (seventeen years ago) link

It's embarssing. There must be funnier conservatives in the world than these.

― Shadowcat (A-Ron Hubbard), Friday, 16 February 2007 03:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Actually, even Rush Limbaugh's radio show is occasionally funny, but he's funny as a smug, sarcastic, disembodied voice. That doesn't mean he can do TV comedy.

― Shadowcat (A-Ron Hubbard), Friday, 16 February 2007 03:23 (seventeen years ago) link

"He's just saying he doesn't want people leaving during his show."
Correct.
But I find more smokers are nihilistic and they seem to like intentionally annoying things more.

I don't think I can be drunk enough to watch this thing...

HA you don't remember his TV show, do you?

Hint: it was a lot like when Beavis & Butthead went on the Gus Baker show

i must have been sleeping because I totally didn't realize what a fucko Joel Surnow is.

― akm (akmonday), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh yeah, check out that New Yorker article I linked to in the starting post. Dude's quite a piece of work.

"And that's the only kind of hybrid I approve of," said " 1/2 Hour News Hour" writer Ned Rice.

wow, and we thought we'd seen the laziest of lazy zings before...

― they be stealin' kingfish's bucket (kingfish), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:30 (seventeen years ago) link

Within seconds, liberal viewers will realize why creators of "The 1/2 Hour News Hour" joked that the show's alternative title was "Pissing Off Berkeley."
...

But as often occurs on Fox's "24" -- the other program that " 1/2 Hour" executive producer Joel Surnow presides over -- there's a twist: A lot of the creative energy behind the liberal bashing on "The 1/2 Hour News Hour" originated in Berkeley.

― After two days in hospital I took a turn for the nurse. (Fluffy Bear Hearts Rain, Friday, 16 February 2007 17:34 (seventeen years ago) link

"But that's not the premise of the show," Surnow quickly added. "The premise of the show is: Let's balance out the 50 other shows that go after Bush and Cheney each week, that hit all the same talking points and all the same 'white Republicans are racist idiots' " material.

Of course, there's something to be said for not being such an easy, constant source of such material, too. But still, does this guy just have your standard persecution/projection complex, or what? What 50 other shows? Is he including Keith Olbermann in this? There's a central RNC-like operation faxing out a regular list of talking points to these 50 shows?

yay! let's bash hippies! that's what all them comedy central shows are about us, so we gotta do the same!

I am so glad I have never watched an episode of 24.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:40 (seventeen years ago) link

I had no idea there were 48 other shows out there to entertain me besides the Daily Show and the Colbert Report

― Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:41 (seventeen years ago) link

but there must be! they all use the same talking points!

― they be stealin' kingfish's bucket (kingfish), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:43 (seventeen years ago) link

well modern conservatism is founded on resentment of others and little else, so there you go. I prefer the sfgate article, really, I don't think surnow and his friendships with other self-mutilating bigoted loonies rates more than about 1,000 words. after this show bombs and everybody realizes 24 peaked two years ago he'll hopefully drop off the radar.

― TOMB07 (trm), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:47 (seventeen years ago) link

honestly I am kind of afraid that this will catch on among a certain strain of conservatives as a way to indulge all of their most hateful tendencies (see: the Barack Obama clip) under the guise of comedy and "political incorrectness"

― Goodtime Slim, Uncle Doobie, and the Great Frisco Freakout (bernard snowy), Friday, 16 February 2007 17:59 (seventeen years ago) link

we already have the all the cable pundits for that (matthews, hannity, o'reilly, etc.)

― Euai Kapaui (tracerhand), Friday, 16 February 2007 18:00 (seventeen years ago) link

Um it's on Fox News. Seriously the certain strain of conservatives that this would catch on with is a lost cause anyway.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 16 February 2007 18:01 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah but I mean, the openly racist shit that even they have the good sense to refrain from

― Goodtime Slim, Uncle Doobie, and the Great Frisco Freakout (bernard snowy), Friday, 16 February 2007 18:02 (seventeen years ago) link

You are kidding, right?

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 16 February 2007 18:05 (seventeen years ago) link

I mean I don't watch Hannity or listen to Limbaugh, but they don't seem to refrain from much AFAICT.

it already has, to a certain extent. For some inadvertant lolz, check the Politically Incorrect Guide series:
