    I just don't like shock PSAs like that.

    They're effective, though. I still remember that Canadian one where the cook slips in the kitchen and drops a vat of scalding hot soup on her face.

    ... wait. Wait. I remember the shock but I can't remember the message.

    Workplace safety is important.

    It taught me that the cause of my third degree burns on my face was immersion in hot soup. Was good to know.

    I was looking up Jonestown last week because reasons. I was kinda surprised at how few cult mass suicides there's been over the past century or so. I assumed there'd be way more.

    SNAFU?

    The rape thing? He was doing audience work at a standup show and asked the crowd what controversial topic he should discuss.
    Someone yelled out rape, of course.

    He said something to the effect of "Oh yeah because rape is hilarious" and then listed all the ways in which rape...wasn't hilarious...hilariously.

    Then someone that doesn't understand the concept of standup comedy got their knickers in a twist and started heckling, so he said "Like wouldn't it be hilarious if she got raped right now?"

    You heckle, you get burned, plus it was a perfect segue off his topic of rape not being funny, but I'm hilarious

    Nono, it'd be the saucier probably making the soup

    Sous is dangerous just because all the station chefs probably want to knife your ambitious ass

    A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

    The book I am reading ties mass suicide cults to the mass murder cults. Since the guruism that develops both of them have very similar basis.

    So you can tie stuff like Heaven's Gate and Jonestown to things like Manson and Aum Shinrikyo.

    It's not on the show. It was his actual standup at a comedy club.

    You gotta understand with standup, there are their headlining shows, and then there is where they just pop into a comedy club, work on new material and do crowd work. He was doing the two latter. It's common for comedian to do this to work out new bits and to "Stay in shape".

    See, the woman's version of the story got out first. But then the real story got out, and, you know, I wasn't there. I can admit that. But I am a student of comedy, and that story sounds WAAAY more likely because any other version of that story is breaking the social contract of a comedy club.

    I'm a firm believer that any topic is fair game for standup comedy

    there can definitely be funny rape jokes

    pointing at someone and joking at the idea of it happening to them isn't funny

    it wouldn't be funny with a lot of other topics, either

    i thought his response was funny. that is a funny idea to me: that someone is stern and disapproving about this awful thing being joked about, and you just go i mean, for example, if this horrifying thing happened in front of us all right now, wouldn't that be hysterical? i think that is a funny absurdist thought.

    I agree with you. That's about all I can say beyond what I've said. I'd like to note pretty much only one comedian came out against Tosh and it was literally the most cartoon character vegan liberal hippie comedian there is. Jamie Kilstein.
