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.

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

Re: NWR: Comedy Clubs
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.
