A little old to be believing in fairy tales, aren't you Dave?

Oh right i live in a county of failed critical thinkers. His show was never funny. I was a teenage idiot and that's why i thought he was funny in half baked. It was the first movie i got truly sick of even before i realized he wasn't funny.

But nice job making the national discourse somehow about your fucking comedy Central beef.

What a miserable life you must lead.


Crackersmack - 2021-03-05

almost everybody that posts here lives an unbelievably sad, pathetic life

Gosh, it is so nice to just see "[filtered Crackersmack: boring zero-credibility troll]" -- knowing that fully summarizes whatever dumb shit he typed with wasting my time any further. Instructions for the filter at https://pastebin.com/Z6xmm4hM - takes less than five minutes.

I don't really know about Dave Chappelle as a thinker or a political voice. Seems to me that really creative people can often be, well, a little nutty and a lot self-obsessed.

But I love Chappelle as a wordsmith. He's got this visceral style that a wordy writer like me can only envy. In this video:

"Watch that crowd that told Colin Kaepernick he can't kneel during a football game try to beat a police officer to death with an American flag."

"You need to know how to solve your problems. You need to know where your power lies. You are Americans, so your power lies in each other."

At his best he's almost more poet than comedian. [Yeah, shame though that he goes from that straight to the beef with Comedy Central.]


Crackersmack - 2021-03-05

people's exhibit A right there


Gmork - 2021-03-05

holy fucking shit i had no idea mon666ster was this fucking stupid and tone deaf


Gmork - 2021-03-05

nah cracker hazel has your number and me and hazel dont always see eye to eye. you're genuinely odious to people that aren't even necessarily aligned.

that's a pretty good litmus test to figure out you're the common denominator, but go ahead and throw the word libtard around and continue to make lopsided comparisons


Gmork - 2021-03-05

the bare facts of your behavior on poetv are objectively proving your own "unbelievably sad, pathetic life"

I am polyamorous, work at a solar testing lab, and make 3d models, videogame mods, and cheesy music in my spare time. I actually have a great life all things considered.


Crackersmack - 2021-03-05

lol


Crab Mentality - 2021-03-05

Oh shit, this guy mods videogames? We could only aspire to such fun.


Gmork - 2021-03-06

oh i'm a basic bitch weirdo, for sure. but i yell at the right people on the internet

you're welcome for the free handles on me, you'll find that they actually don't bother me when you throw them in my face because they're sources of joy for me

oh boy crab mentality. you sure got me by throwing my own love of videogames in my face. how embarrassing for me.


teethsalad - 2021-03-08

if you post here you are officially uncool forever

sorry, that's just how it works


Two Jar Slave - 2021-03-08

teethsalad confusing cool for happy is the saddest part of this thread.


Gmork - 2021-03-08

bingo


teethsalad - 2021-03-08

it was a joke, you precious treasures you

do what you want, nobody cares


SolRo - 2021-03-05

I like the part where he was telling his large fan base not to worry about following COVID-19 precautions.


Lef - 2021-03-05

I liked the part where Chappelle thanked his fans making him rich.

He can be very funny.
It's hard to make preaching funny, but not impossible.
Chappelle was preaching, and failed to make it funny.


GongWise - 2021-03-05

What I enjoy is Chapelle's abilities to base an entire career on race baiting and instilling cross-cultural tension and hostility. That takes real talent.


Crackersmack - 2021-03-06

5 stars for you unfunny bitches that don't recognize a generation-defining genius when he's right in front of you


SolRo - 2021-03-06

Ha.


Gmork - 2021-03-07

lol


teethsalad - 2021-03-08

oh yeah you can't go anywhere without people talking about "generation chapelle"


Binro the Heretic - 2021-03-05

All the good points he makes are overshadowed by calling the people who followed quarantine protocols cowardly.

There's a HUGE difference in risking your own personal safety to do something for someone else or the greater good and putting others at risk because you want to show people how "brave" you are.


Hazelnut - 2021-03-05

Yeah, on reflection & re-watching the video you're absolutely right about that.


snothouse - 2021-03-05

Dave Chapelle is a master at making you think he's being much more profound than the words he is saying.


Nominal - 2021-03-06

5 for the Kaepernick line
1 for everything else


Hazelnut - 2021-03-06

Sounds about right


teethsalad - 2021-03-08

ehhhhhhhhh he's better than average and has some good bits but the second coming of richard pryor he is not
