Shaun White called out by Special Olympic Community

[slappies]

how is stand up comedy even still at thing at this point?

I can tell you from experience a lot of comics are really taking a stand (or at least thing they're taking a stand) against PC culture, to the point of no longer being funny. Just offensive for the sake of offensive, I watched one comic do a 5 minute "bit" about why forced female circumcision is okay because "women are whores". The more push back there is, the more certain comics will go out of there way to be defiant or some shit. I know there are at least 1 or 2 other PALS here involved in stand-up who can attest to this. It's just as annoying to watch as the recreational outrage of some people.

A group of stand up comics taking a stand against PC culture is more poosey than any left wing crying hole safe space.

  I wonder this as well but only cause stand up comedy sucks ass.  1% of it is okay.

What's worse, someone getting offended by something possibly offensive or someone online getting offended that someone got offended by something possibly offensive?

Or someone getting offended not by the original possibly offensive thing, but rather by someone online getting offended that someone got offended by something possibly offensive?

Some of you are being huge hypocrites being upset at other people being upset, just shut the fuck up. So you're saying it's perfectly ok to mock disabled people during Halloween? But any other day of the year it's inappropriate? Or is it ok to do all the time? Typical right wing bullshit, "I said this but I meant this...."Say what the fuck you mean the first time around which is you HATE disabled people. The ignorance and intolerance is scary.

*Serious question - do 'cognitively disabled' individuals possess knowledge of self, especially to the point of understanding ridicule?

* I fully realize this ain't the point just kinda always wondered.

Yes, dude.

One of my younger High school skate homies sister had a form of down syndrome and she was fully conscious of it, once she got used to me hanging around she got cool, but she'd always hid her face and her their dad was a complete dick to her too...My homey would full on rage and whoop on people who made fun of her or the disability 

[Bobby Peru]

people who get pissed about celebrities wearing thrasher shirts being unable to sympathize with a maligned and outcasted group feeling mocked is fucking fascinating irony

Seriously.

This thread is embarrassing.

To the people saying everyone's so easily offended by everything, if someone dressed up as a person with a facial deformity and you had a child with the same condition, you don't think that would hurt if you saw that? That's like the same shit when Tim Oconnor made fun of kids with a cleft lip and Kenny Anderson called him out because his kid has that.

I think there's an incredible amount of useless outrage in the world right now, but if you can't see why this would upset some people, you're an idiot.

Imagine the kind of boring person that's wearing a halloween costume in the first place.

I once saw Shaun white eating alone in the corner of a ramen place next my house . Facing the window too. Bentley outside and everything. I’ve never laughed so hard.

 I saw this chick on the bus she was 18 I'd say and had a major cleft lip.  The thing about her that I found inspiring was that you could tell she KNEW she was hot.  I remember thinking "fuck yah gf -you go"

[CRAILFISH TO REVERT]

I'd rather talk about how Shaun White has no chance at competing against the latest crop of bowl/park destroyers. Did anyone see that latest Vans park series final? He will get fully embarrassed.

Retards will always be retarted and do funny things you cant stop retardation through anger only through gene editing.

It’s Halloween! It’s supposed to be a lil spooky!

Really the craziest thing is that he was seemingly able to just slide past those super creepy sexual harassment allegations.

  Well that's how people feel.  Today most regular people get aborted.  They'll be super rare.  Sign of the times.  Crazy world.

[pizzafliptofakie]

Complaining about people being "too pc" is such a cop out for people who stopped thinking about things critically after high school. And that goes double for comedians.

2018: if you find this funny you're intolerant.

i doubt a lot of people are really offended, but want others to believe they're offended...it's some sort of social status currency for some people.
