Gilbert Gottfried: Funniest man alive

Someone let me know when it's okay again to make fun of Whiney's Zooey Deschanel fetish again.

Let's see exactly how many posters we can call assholes either indirectly or directly on this thread. It think that should be really helpful, huh?

Can't say as I WANT anyone's parents to drown, but man, when they do, just sit back and wait for the lulz to roll in.

okay that was funnier than any of GG's tweets

gilbert gottfired

hey, TamTam is your mom Katy Perry perchance?

okay thread saved

I'm just going to go work on my new posting style where all I do is zing about the Holocaust and how crazy Muslims are so I can fit in, k guys?

Holocaust jokes! Now we're cooking!

I don't want to be called out for being cuddly, a few oven jokes should take care of that, righ?

I think it's an indication of odd priorities to bother getting outraged at ilxors when giant swaths of coastal Japan are simply gone and people are being evacuated and quarantined for radiation. I mean, OUTRAGED isn't very useful, is it?

in other words, relax, guy. Go find someone to send some money to.

Another soul lost...don't do it, jon--I'm 92% on your side.

So glad I'm the one still getting piled on here. Let the guy roll out his tasteless jokes, but fuck you for daring to be offended. God, this place.

I'm literally the only person on this thread who defended GG's jokes - at best a few other people had ambivalent 'eh they should've known what they were getting into w/Gottfried' responses. I think you just enjoy this 'one righteous guy against the world' schtick regardless of reality.

chill out watch a wheat thins vid of a little kid dressed up as iago eating crackers or something (xp)

"Chill out, relax, laugh at some dead people, be a bro."

Jon this is like the whole markers img posts thing all over again. I think being so defensive just makes ppl more likely to jump all over you. I think there are probably a lot of people on your side and some have said as much here! You're sort of asking for the pile on by keeping this up, you know?

literally one person defended gottfried

One person defended gottfried, but a whole bunch of posters itt have jumped on me for being offended about it.

no they jumped on you for being kinda a dick

jumping on you for being offended about it doesn't make any sense cause they were also offended about it

you are literally getting mad at everyone else for not being mad in 100% exactly the same manner as you and inventing positions for them so that you can yell a lot and feel sorry for yourself

it isn't really making any sense

No, I'm taking it personally because the whole vibe I seem to be getting is "chill bro, its okay to make fun of dead people".

not really gonna defend gottfried but at least i prefer his "jokes" to that family guy death toll stuff

hey jon I wrote a joke for you

what's the difference between a tsunami and gilbert gottfried?
one's a wall of water, and the other's a total asshole

jon not even GG has "made fun of dead people"

my co-worker is a friend of GG's, thinks he went too far. SO THAT'S SETTLED

Got it guys, I'm an over-senstive asshole. Point taken. YOU WIN.

Gonna go watch some videos of the tsunami and laugh at the destruction, cool?

Haha look at that mom crying over her dead daughter, that's HILARIOUS!

xp: I always find it interesting how ppl use arguments like this to take the opportunity to type the word "nigger" like they just got a hall pass or something

that hall pass is called "the internet"

I think you just enjoy this 'one righteous guy against the world' schtick regardless of reality.

From a baseball thread three months ago:

i mean really man, you get a kick out of the lone-clemenza-crying-in-the-wilderness thing--and that's ok! but drop the defensive ish.

Deja vu all over again!

who are you having this argument with?? nobody is calling you overly sensitive, just poorly sensitive.

Gonna go watch some videos of the tsunami and laugh at the destruction, cool?

I dunno the fact that you are saying this kind of make me feel like you don't really understand what the issue is here

i just had a terrible vision of gg apologising for getting carried away.

Jon, including myself, have been trying to make you feel better by explaining why ppl got on your case. If you can't see that then I don't really know what to say and the fact that you haven't dropped it and continue to post like this means that at least on some level you must enjoy feeling persecuted.

that should have said - people not "Jon" at the start there

jon, was that thread you started out of the blue a couple of weeks ago that was all "sorry for jumping all over everyone for no reason" that confused the hell out of everyone an elaborate setup for this? because if so, I can only applaud the dedication to craft

if not... I am very concerned about you

so who are they going to get to replace him? they're "casting" for a new duck but can you really replace that voice? i mean if his voice was easy to imitate is there any way he'd get the kind of work he did? he only has one voice!

WTF. I'm so glad I seem to be universally hated at this point.

GG shoulda stuck to local 7th-grade gallows humor, like Chinatown-bus passenger decapitation jokes

x-post - NOBODY SAID THEY HATED YOU

Jon can speak for himself, but I don't think he's enjoying this. I understand the distinction that everyone is making here--between the normal reaction of being personally offended by GG, and the certainty that everyone else should therefore be offended--and it's a valid one. But, just as I wasn't enjoying the baseball argument referred to above, I understand where jon's coming from: you're trying to make a point that seems as obvious as can be, and you're amazed and perplexed to find that everyone in the room sees it differently. So, issue aside, I don't think he's enjoying this.

um if that's a reference to me morbs I was not making any joke in that thread, people were literally decapitated and I found it horrifying

Iatee I don't think it was

omg everyone is so sensitive

It's OK we're all awesome and nobody's an asshole, OK?

Or maybe that should be that we're all assholes sometimes and that's OK too.

(hey Whiney, THIS is why your amateur anthropology meta-analysis shit is a bad idea, esp. in the middle of a heated argument that you have little to no previous involvement in)

You can watch this with the sound turned off and it's still funny.

Yeah but it's good that Jon got offended because that is really the point of these jokes. He's not an offensive comedian in the common way of "wow that's so dirty and wrong but I'm still laughing", but rather he's trying to be truly offensive, and there really SHOULD be people who detest him for this. That's the point
