Its pretty funny for Matt Groening to go right for the Family Guy joke so quickly, seems like a clever guy.

as a pushy cosmopolitan fan who knows his parasocial limits, I judge Ricky to be pathetically unappreciative of Groening's time I would have abrasively claimed Humboldt County CA is the more "legit hippie descendant" of westcost communities than Portland OR, then apologized a bunch of times asking for him to draw a patented M.

Remembering the good old days when I believed Dane Cook was the worst thing to happen to stand up comedy.

He was super popular among like frat guys and college aged women and then got accused of stealing jokes by Louis C.K. while Louis was enjoying a meteoric rise.

yeah the only time i've ever seen him on screen for more than 5 seconds was the episode of the louis show he did which seemed to be a sort of make up/redemption deal i dunno if he actually did steal louis's jokes but if it comes out that he was public masturbating at the time then i guess we'll know for sure

i always wondered how much joke theft/story plagiarism is actual theft and not just a coincidence because there's really only so many ways to make that stuff work and with 8 billion people in the world some people are going to have the same idea or hell even just someone heard the idea from someone else but was drunk or forgot about it for the most part but it stuck around in their head so they thought it was their idea

The only Dane Cook skit I ever saw was about how kicking in a stranger's door and not stealing anything would be worse than stealing poo poo. I remember it as pretty funny, so maybe it was a stolen bit. I dunno, I don't watch standup unless someone shows it to me.

I've heard the original version had Derek becoming a Nazi again after Danny gets shot but the studio made them shoot a different ending.

Zoolander is a good movie in that the message in it is that big businesses in the first world take advantage of developing countries' lack of labor laws and will do anything to maintain the status quo. It is a bad movie because that message gets lost in the stupid antics of the rest of the film.

"letter to the censors" is literally just "ace of spades": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NviHnidBtCU

Song theft usually only amounts to anything when the song in question is a big hit. I watch a lot of standup and there is soo much crossover between jokes and different comedians. I feel like it's rare that I watch a special where I don't see a bit that someone else hasn't already done. I think people subconsciously rip stuff off or just land on the same joke because it's inevitable. Some comedians seem to think their dick jokes are truly special and that they are the only ones who could have come up with it.

The way people like him talk you would think the right to free speech also gives them the right to a captive audience. There is no great conspiracy. Maybe nobody wants to hear what you have to say, Ricky. Also, you've never been funny. Ever. wait, wtf. why am i talking to you like you are ricky. sorry.
