Bad Language

So, I was flipping through channels and I landed on the Comedy Central station. There was a stand-up "comedian" doing a routine. I didn't have a stopwatch or anything, but I think I'm pretty awfully close when I say he had six words bleeped in the thirty seconds that I watched. And, get this, the words ass, bitch, and damn were all said aloud during that time. I'm guessing the bleeped words were worse than those. Here's a newsflash for you. If you need that language to spice up your act to be funny, you're not funny. By the way, if you are mad and you need those words to emphasize your point, you probably don't have a point. However, some people must think that makes people a lot funnier. The people in the audience were really yukking it up. In the 30 seconds I saw, I didn't hear anything funny. Mostly just a lot of bleeping. So, maybe its just me. I get embarrassed when Sgt Snorkel says "#%#!*#" to Beetle Bailey in the comics.

On a related note, Brian Regan is a comedian who doesn't talk like that. And he is the funniest guy on the planet. I've seen him in person twice. The first time I heard him was on a CD in my car on I-5. I actually considered pulling off the road for safety reasons because I was laughing so hard. I've included a picture of him, because I'm getting addicted to pictures on my blog now.
