You're right, I don't think Sarah Silverman is funny but you guys got right on and laugh at both of them.

I am sure some take offense at what I find funny.

I think there is a big difference in doing it stand up or as a joke as opposed to actually doing it. And it's not like there hasn't been controversy surrounding Miley in regards to her exposing herself.

Didn't she also make a reference to Dakota Fanning being a junkie at one point? Again...it's a joke. Not appropriate, but that's the point.

Kathy is certainly better than Lisa Lamponelli.

Just so you know. This is what she's talking about.

superspaceboy said:

That isn't saying much. And it's no excuse for what she said about a 15-year-old girl.

RodeoSchro said:

Yup.

Anxiety said:

I get what you're saying. I think she is most funny when she tells a story and doesn't do the one liners for one liner sake like being on the red carpet or going to Brooke Shields wedding. Most of what she says isn't rehearsed either and I like that.

RodeoSchro said:

Thanx for the vids ...cause they were awesome! it was funny! did you hear all the people laughing? I didn't hear any booing, all I heard was applause and laughter.
What seems to be going on here is you really like the cyrus family perhaps cause you know them or have met them but you are now unable to find jokes about them funny. That's understandable, but they are just jokes.

She's hit and miss with me, mostly miss. most of her comedy is really cheap and shallow to me.

thats too bad... unfortunate that that picture has been put out public like that. im sure that as young folks we all did shit that wasnt smart and that we wish we could take back...

its too bad that ms griffin talks about children like she is - at least in this instance.

like i said, i liked her before... she just goes to damn far.

Shorty said:

No, what gets me mad is making fun of kids. It's the same reason that if I ever get to meet Michael Savage, I'm going to punch his lights out for what he said about autistic children.

If Kathy Griffin was a man, I'd knock her teeth out. But I don't hit women, so her dentist doesn't have to worry about me breaking his work.

I'm willing to bet that those who have kids support me on this thread, and those that don't have kids don't get it.

RodeoSchro said:

I...HATE.....MICHAEL SAVAGE. We can both tag team him.....er....ummm...you know what I mean.

RodeoSchro said:

I'll punch her in the face for you.

RodeoSchro said:

i support you, children are off limits.

Stymie said:

LMFAO, thanks!

RodeoSchro said:

oohh! I'll bet ya! cause I got kids, 2 of em even!

Ace said:

if what i posted about her was ignorance, then i'm proud to be stupid.

nakedpianoplayer said:

No, she talks about celebrities. Miley is one, who happens to be 15.

RodeoSchro said:

She does not make fun of kids in general. She's merely lampooning one celebrity. Opposed to Savage which DOES and always generalizes.

Quick Poll...

If you saw this pic on your teenagers phone, and it was her or if you knew it was a friend of your teen daughter or son...what would you think? And how would you respond in both situations?

What would you think if you found out your daughter put a pic like this up on her myspace? Or saw this was one of her friends?

RodeoSchro said:

I hear ya...but just like kathy said...when she was 13 she said...no, I can't say anything...when she was 14...nope still not gonna say anything....there's a line when a child is still legally a minor, but not necessarily a "child" anymore. If she were to kill someone...they would try her as an adult. When she stands in her underwear, lifts up her own shirt, puckers her lips, takes her own picture AND posts it on the World Wide Web...well then...she is off goals (gools?) and TAG she's it.

Shorty said:

You have boys. If this was your daughter, would she be fair game, too?

It was a joke . Meant to be humor. she did not molest any minors so calm down.

If she is not your thing or think she is tasteless and talentless that fine and your opinion, dont buy her merch, watch her shows, or listen to her then.

Somehow I feel there is a far greater point being missed by a mile here...

What upsets me far more than what KG says about MC in a stand up comedy routine is the FACT that MC dares to take pics of herself



and "release" them to the public. By "release" I mean they got out somehow, be it intentional or not.

Nobody seems to raise a stink about "Where are her parents?" or "How dare she". Where is the outrage at a 15 year old pushing the limits of acting like a grown up? Where is the outrage at her parents for not putting an end to MC's behavior???

KG is famous for making outrageous comments in her act, not one person in either of the videos gasped in shock or booed or hissed. They knew what they were getting.

Rodeo, I agree, to a certain extent, with the principle of your complaint; but I feel there is far more to be done than just complain about 1 D-lister...

Stymie said:

I have.

applekisses said:

Really? What?

RenHoek said:

Oh I had my comments on a Miley thread.

I used to like her, cute kid. she wants to be grown up much to soon and I feel she will regret it.

Another comedian, on 15 year olds. It's long, but makes a point and is very funny.

How old is 15 really?




To me, if you're old enough to be sold, you are old enough to deal with everything that goes along with that. Celebrities are made fun of, especially when they are hypocrites.

i think sarah silverman is funny too. i think that a lot of people who take offense at her comedy are only hearing what's being said on the surface. i think her humor is all about her subtext, and the subtext is usually a comment on the stupidity or absurdity of her surface comment. even if she piles it on a bit thick with the dark humor, i think she's got a great sense of satire.
