ah... ha ha... **** never gets old... i'll admit... liberal comedians will forever outperform the libertarian leaning right-wing commentators... why? they have some nuanced knowledge of boundaries... fair enough... when the libertarian commentators do their SJW accents... with pink-but-not-punk hairdos... it's self-evident comedy... it's not the sort of comedy that involves thinking: well... that's reasonable, if the highest form of reasonableness is to enshrine free speech... sorry... that's just lazy... if i'm going to make a **** joke, i won't be making a joke, but rather reciting, verbatim, my grandfather's memory, about the two SS-men dressed in black manning an anti-aircraft outpost in my home town... asking them... herr-bitte-bonbon! the funny part is in the punctuation... her never says it with a comma... i.e. herr, bitte bonbon... he still got the sweets... he added... i ran back home, and put my glued together hands under the tap... yeah... all Nazis were inhuman zombies... some gave sweets to the children of the people they were occupying... but all bad, nonetheless... still... i get edgy humor, but sometimes it's just: enforced humor... libertarian humor is sometimes akin to canned laughter... you're not supposed to laugh: you're expected to laugh... that's why liberal comedy is better, in that it acknowledges the constraints of comedy... it's authoritative humor... and comedy needs as many metaphorical comparisons to psychological archetypes, as is required to dissect the constrained number of ****** expressions... i give the benefit of the doubt... sure... sure thing... say all the jokes you want... but i sometimes abhor the complexity of a Monty Python and succumb to the simplistic genius of Fawlty Towers... when i laugh: i want an uncontrolled reaction... giggles... till the stomach aches... thinking about what i'm laughing about, with an explanation to boot... that's just bad... punchlines bad... i'm already more curious about the madman who's, "apparently" laughing at nothing in particular... there's that... and there is the liberal humor... with its constraints... the orthodoxy of humor... the orthodoxy of humor with its canon of hubris... the proud look of: i know this is funny... rather than this libertarian... ****, what's going look of bewilderment... were we supposed to play tennis with a squash ball, and hit the squash ball with a lacrosse stick?! and hit it so that it falls through a basketball hoop?! bill maher... who the hell cares if he "thinks he's smart... he's also *doubting that he is, in the classical Cartesian sense... sometimes... i just find... that i find it hard to compensate the intelligence involvement in producing a joke... i like constraints, archetypal comic constraints... not everything is funny... oddly enough... and enforcing omnipresent laughter is worse than canned laughter.
