He said "he looks like if the meth in BB was a person" lol. Honestly though I constantly laugh at Petes rants way more than anything else on SNL. I also like Michael Che and Colin Jost. Michael Ches stand up on Netflix is some my favorite stand up shit. Akso rewatched the Chance the Rapper episode last night.

I of course understand the point of Dan returning fire and think that is obviously the best response, but to apologize and say that making jokes about veterans appearances on comedy news is wrong, and then follow it up by having the veteran come on and make jokes about your appearance on comedy news is just really strange mixed signal. It seems like Pete has to apologize because he hurt Dan, but then Dan responds in a comedic way that seems like he wasn't hurt and understands the application of a joke. --- move all remaining groundhog mercenaries to the front lines.

Making fun of peoples' disabilities is generally frowned upon, and even moreso if it's an injury sustained while serving one's country But all-in-all I think the way it was handled was good, even if the original joke was incredibly dumb I was making fun of my scoliosis the other day and that controls my life. Im on disability cause of it. My friend pointed out that my dog was standing all bent up looking stupid. I made a joke about how he was making fun of my scoliosis to get back at me, cause I always make jokes with my dog being the butt end of it. It's actually freeing when you hit that point that you're no longer insecure about things that largely impact your life. However, I don't take this as I have free rain to make fun of everyone else to their face just cause I learned how to take and flip it. I don't think people were as offended about the eye patch joke as what followed, when Pete said "I know we aren't supposed to make fun of him because he lost his eye in war or whatever." I mean the guy lost his eye when his best friend was blown to a million pieces by an IED right in front of him, that is pretty fucked up, I wouldn't dismiss it as "war or whatever" --- Hello world! <cite>AngelsNAirwav3s posted [p:912349808] in Why were p...
