NWR: Comedy Clubs

I went to Governor's on Friday night. The comic was extremely racist and was wishing cancer on people. I thought it was completely in bad taste. Then the guy started picking on me because I was not laughing. The whole thing really pissed me off.

Ugh! Omg! are you serious??? That's aweful.... How could that possibly be considered comedy??

Sorry to hear you had to endure that kind of ignorant crap...

Thanks. I just wish I knew how he was before I went. No one else seemed bothered by him.

That's awful.

Obviously, I wasn't there, but in general a lot of that type of stuff is to be expected and is the norm in stand up today. (And, no, I don't agree with it AT ALL) Look at many of the top comedians - Chris Rock, Dennis Leary, etc. They say pretty horrible things -- but I think their talent lies in making it satirical rather than serious... but then again, they cross the line often.

Sorry you had such a bad experience. I probably would have just walked out.
