I'm not offended. lenny bruce taught me that everything's funny. you can make everything funny. i don't think that assassinations are funny, i don't think you can make fun of isis, but almost everything is funny. and if we can't laugh at ourselves, who can we laugh at? so i don't mind ethnic humor. i like ethnic humor. i like dialect jokes. laughter is a very subjective thing. if it's funny to you it's funny. and a lot of things are funny to me.
Laughter Fun Thinking
The problem is that we live in an uptight country. why don't we just laugh at ourselves? we are funny. gays are funny. straights are funny. women are funny. men are funny. we are all funny, and we all do funny things. let's laugh about it.

When i was growing up, i never expected to be able to afford everything i wanted. there are certain things i couldn't afford. i didn't run around blasting those companies or those things. i just decided i was gonna have to, if i really wanted it, find a way to pay for it. but that doesn't seem to be the attitude today. the attitude today is if you want it, you should have it. and if you can't afford it, it's not your fault. it's the provider's fault because they're corporations and they rip you off and they kill you.

Well, it wasn't like i was going to run out and score heroin and score an ounce of coke - but incidentally, on the road, i would usually get tanked up and as stoned as i possibly could to go on stage. and offstage, it would be a demon that would come up about twice a week.
