Listening to him say essentially " I can’t be racist I have a trans friend" was wild.
I watched part of the special after that where he followed it up with more unfunny takes and tapped out.
He is also one of the comedians who would get on stage and complain about “being cancelled” because 10 people on Twitter told him his jokes sucked and that is such hack and unfunny.
That’s not what he said. He said that friend told him he should use those jokes in his show, after laughing heartilly. You gonna tell him he needs not just more, but specifically better trans friends?
“my one black friend was cool with me using the n word so now I drop the hard r all the time”… You see how this is a crazy take.
He basically said they sucked opening for him and the rest of the story felt very much like he wasn’t aware they were being deferential to a person who could make or break their career.
Plus he was doing all of the above while being entirely unfunny which is I think the cardinal sin of comedy.
Yes, he had a problem with them being deferential in their stiff-ass performance as well.
He would have preferred if they were honest with him and funny, even at his expense, just like me and my queer friends would prefer most of the trans people in our community hadn’t fled to San-Francisco to then base their on-line personalities almost entirely around bashing not just our town, but its queer community specifically.
Say it to our faces so we can laugh at our own expense with you - its one of the favorite pass-times of our Mid-western, historically-gay town, and many minorities, like Dave Chapelle.
How can you watch someone who ribs on themselves and everything about where they come from like that, and be afraid of and deferential to him? Will Smith was in the audience; he wasn’t the one with the self-awareness to take the stage and say a bald woman looked like a badass. What did the comedian who could have beat Will’s ass five-ways-from-Sunday do after that punch?
