legendary funnyman jerry lewis viciously murdered in his sleep......

[cleaver]

by a grim reaper...

grey lives matter
will be holding a breaking news press conference
within the hour
and later
will sit shiva, by torch light
outside of the gates of the late comedian's home

It is amusing that
Such humor is one-sided
When we do it

It is very cutting-edge funny

When you do it

It's mean

yep.

with the loss of a capacity to
laugh at
and to learn through humor,
so goes
civility.

apparently,
the old racist kike deserved to die

I used to watch Martin & Lewis movies when I was a child and dozens of Jerry Lewis movies and telethons after that. I don't recall his ever saying anything bigoted or doing anything bigoted.

Throb, shut the fuck up.

Me too! Everything has turned political or anti everything now.
Jerry Lewis and Red Skelton are still my favorite comedians.

I suppose things like Tosh.0 are better!

Even Antifa didn't call the man a racist. Nor did they call him a Kike. Their beef seems to be that Lewis used a mild epithet that sometimes means "gay" a few times.

Mayhaps not bigoted, but he certainly was an unapologetic Ishmael-class misogynist.

ensembles have their times, places, and purposes

how strange, that what was needed, was there

a map that is more suited to hot pops and hisses


the coldness of modern technology has frozen it in place



it cannot be un- born, the light goes forward, until it fades

 

[cleaver]

please do not mistake
intelligent sarcasm
with poorly packaged popular passions...

to do so only lends life's breath to certain (uncomfortable) self-stereotypings

again: there truly are no gourmet toaster waffles, myron.

Give him to france.

They do.

Sometimes for dinner and sometimes not for dinner.

It's a passing of significance. I matriculated in a time when comedians did not have to resort to vulgarity in order to garner laughs. There were so many good ones to chose from. I just do not see the turn our culture took as a positive thing in the long-run and may be signaling, with the loss of decorum and civility, a return to the primitive in our society, a place where violence is now condoned when directed at those we disagree with.

Pinin' for a return to the gauzy imaginary days of the 50s, where Mrs. Cleaver vacuumed the house wearing her pearls...
