Not because it was a bad movie, just very uncomfortable. Sort of like the "Ear Scene" in Reservoir Dogs. Link to post Share on other sites

brvheart 1,752 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Did anyone watch the Charlie sheen roast? This Anthony Jeselnik cat was very very funny."What can you say about Mike Tyson that has'nt already been the title of a Richard Pryor album."....crowd silent.....One of the roasters, who is black, finally says, "oh, shit." [That Nigger's Crazy]Jeselnik says (pointing at black guy) "He gets it."Black dude, "Too many white people!"Jeselnk (says nearly instantly in response): "Too many white people? You know what no one ever says? Too few black people." Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 Ho-lee shit, just watched the new Community. It picked up where it left off (amazing, one of the top 2 or 3 comedies on tv), but the ho-lee shit part was that Omar Little unexpectedly showed up. Very unexpectedly. Michael K. Williams, that is.Edit: The 2001 bit at the end was pretty good. Link to post Share on other sites
