Respecting Comedy

about respecting comedy

Comedy was supposed to be funny because at one point it provoked thought. Now everyone is just offended and no one has a voice. They try to say something shocking but the whole world is already shocked and not even that but well people as a whole are rather sheepish and scared. Norm MacDonald is the last true comedian. Poundstone is good, Oswalt is good but they aren't like a rickles, a Pryor , Murphy or Carlin. No one does a joke like Dangerfield or red fox. No one has courage on that stage anymore. Sad truly is sad they just do safe comedy.
