A lesson Dick Cheney learnt through experience

@Mizmazzle I've been a fan over the years,but for some reason I just couldn't get through his most recent special.
-
@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot oh nice man! How’d that encounter occur?
-
Agreed. I love his appearances on talk shows and awards shows but his standups, especially the new one, don’t hit the same way. The holocaust joke is a classic. As holocaust jokes go that is.
Also, I watched the new Chapelle special and liked it. I think he’s leaning into activist monologues a bit more but I respect that and feel like the times call for it more than before. It def had the feel of a quickly put together set but if that’s his B game then I’d say he’s still got it.

@Matt it’s kind of funny how I praise Ricky and he often talks about how wealthy he is. But when Chapelle does it, for some reason it rubs me the wrong way. I do love Chapelle. But he’s seemed to have lost a lot of his humility. What I do know about myself is that if I had that money and fame I would be insufferable. So I guess I shouldn’t let his bragging bother me too much.
