    Do you have opinions on what music is good and bad?

    Do you have opinions on what movies are good and bad?

    Do you have opinions on what video games are good and bad?

    Do you have opinions on what books are good and bad?

    Do you have opinions on what TV shows are good and bad?

    If you answered yes to any of these questions, then congratulations! You're a hypocrite!

    careful geek

    Every time I walk by a spy shop I think, I need to put some surveillance on somebody. Rick's been acting fishy. I need to buy a little camera. I need to buy a safe that looks like a Coca-Cola can. Or better yet, a safe that looks like a Spray and Wash can. That would create better situations. "Hey Mitch, can I use the Spray and Wash?" "Yeah, if you want to spray your shirt…with documents!"

    well

    that is because I'm not a professional comedian

    you fucking dipshit

    do you know me?
    would you say that to my face?
    no.
    you're a classic example of an internet "dipshit" as you put it.
    blow me.

    yes

    yes I would

    do you want to know why?
    why?

    because nothing is more ridiculous than this idea people have that you can't critique performers just because they're "brave" enough to go on stage and get paid for it.

    put yourself in the public eye, open yourself up to criticism

    and unless you breathe in pollution and breathe out lazer beamz I'm not going to hold my tounge; I don't care who the fuck you are


    thats pretty edgy of you.

    no one's being edgy

    you just, you know

    made implications

    you came in and had this wise fucking insight that comedians were the true heroes or some shit

    just the kind of pseudointellectual garbage people always throw out after a movie

    all "well it's not like you could do any better"

    no shit guy, I'm not a fucking film-maker

    look.
    im just as empty inside as you are.
    it wasnt a holier than thou statement.
    there just comes a time in a mans life where he needs to recognize the virtue in others as opposed to attempting to tear everything around you down in order to feel better about yourself.

    I think the last time something like this was attempted was Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn, and I grew tired of that show pretty quickly. Still, I like Lewis Black, so this show could have potential. If anyone out there actually goes to this taping, come back and let us all know how it was, okay? Okay.

    Main difference: While Colin Quinn is extremely obnoxious, Lewis Black is extremely awesome.

    It seems that either you love Lewis Black or you hate him... I personally love the stuff that I've heard from him, but I can understand how it could maybe get old pretty fast.

    In any case, a Lewis Black show is a much better idea than a Carlos Mencia show. Man, that show is horrible.
