Classic comedy? or "problematic" due to the tens of millions who died during the ensuing world war?
SJWs decide.
it just is not funny, but if you want to go back to your "Golden age of comedy" where you can get sniggers using the n-word have at it - because that's where this usually ends up.

But I'll say this one last thing.
"Dong, ding" will always be funny.

This has taken a turn; I made a remark about Dr Phil and Leamy always taking lumps off of each other on the pitch back when the played against one another. I was completely unaware that Leamy made a Belgrano remark, if this did happen? I thought it was more a Leinster/Munster rivalry between Dr Phil and Leamy/Quinnie/O'Callaghan, and the Munster forwards were really just trying to rattle Phil...probably to stop him from running over ROG (again)

FWIW I always thought that it was Paul Wallace who made the Belgrano remark back before the 2009 HEC SF against Munster.

He did but he was far from the only one, and far from the last.

Ha, the face on Wallace when Lazenby apologises for the Belgrano comment. He must have had the producer in his ear telling him to say something. :oops:

Speaking of unacceptable jokes, has anyone watched the latest Dave Chappelle special? A bit of a shitstorm seems to have followed it around his Trans jokes - From Media and Social Media (even though it's not a place). Now, it seemed to me that the whole point of his special was to call out the hypocrisy of people who pretend to care about others, but are really just self absorbed in their own righteousness. I thought it was a brilliant set, and while maybe not as funny as his best stuff, was still excellent. Anyone see it and have thoughts?

I've seen him on Netflix is a Joke, some you tube clips, very funny but he does push it. The one about that actor Jesse Smolett getting attacked by guys in MAGA hats was very funny.
Jim Jeffries is also very funny.
