i grew up eating corn flakes with strawberry jam, and i didn’t realize until now that it was unusual.

there is no line, as long as it’s funny. though being able to make an awful subject funny, is hard.

his job is to be funny. sometimes the jokes land, sometimes they don’t. being pissed about a comedian making a bad joke is like being pissed at a band for playing a song out of tune.

and the kind of hyperbole you’re engaging in, is the exact thing i was referring to in my original comment.

excusing the guy isn’t synonymous with finding his jokes funny.

the guy is an entertainer putting on a show.

well, that’s a really shitty joke, if that even.

i don’t know why you’re expecting me to explain why it’s funny

i didn’t watch any of it, so i have no idea about the jack o lantern joke. but i did reply regarding the other one

i can’t tell if you’re asking in earnest or not, but the joke is rooted in subversion of expectations. puerto rico has 29 landfills, all of which are way over capacity, so trash is currently building up.

presumably he’s pointing out an actual problem on the island, while also poking fun at them in an offensive way.

the exact same joke has been pulled about england for the past 20 years, albeit without pointing out any sanitation issue.

i don’t know man, seems like quite the sisyphusean task to try to keep kids from seeing testicles on tv 🤷
