Back in 2007, Adam Gussow manifested a shocking lack of integrity in the following video. He put words in somebody's mouth--not just anybody, but a really important person--and at least 18 people (at present count) let him know how disturbed they were by voting thumbs-down. This isn't satire, it's....it's.....well, it's just bad behavior. And, at the risk of repeating myself (and seeming self-important when I do so), I'll just say that it manifests a shocking lack of integrity. I mean the words he puts in the President's mouth CLEARLY aren't the way that Bush actually talks. Even Gussow's attempt at a Texas accent is lame. So what's the point? I just don't get it. And that bothers me. A LOT.
Also--have I said this already?--the fact that Gussow would do something like this manifests a shocking lack of integrity. It's almost like he's another person in this video.

"From the sublime to the ridiculous."
And comedies greatest asset is that you can have two people in a room watching or hearing the same joke etc... and one of them is fallin off the chair from laughing so hard, and the other is left frowning, scratching their head and disturbed - Gotta love it!
Humor like music often leaves a vast majority of the public confused why someone would like it, let alone tolerate it-
Nobody is immune from its sting, everyone is vulnerable, the good people, the bad, fat, skinny, rich, poor, black, white, beautiful, ugly, perfect, screwed up, hip, square, happy or sad -
The school of hard knocks teaches all of us to acquire a sense of humor - not everyone learns at the same speed :)

Here is a well known blues type comic...
If you can find his "Sissy Mannish Boy" Song it is humorous as hell :)

I often hold a "Tipathon" in aid of a worthwhile cause, usually "The Sisters of Perpetual Responsibility Home for Women with Low Self Esteem." Last week a girl said to the manager in all seriousness, "Isn't that great they give their tip money to charity."
Often the sound they hear is the joke going over their head.

In my younger days I had to ride in a truck with some stiff humored fellow that seemed to have been raised by Mr. and Mrs. Boring... To make a long story short he didn't make it to work a few days and he was found dead in the shower of his apartment due to a stroke / high blood pressure. He never got my jokes :)

I was working in a metal shop and would occasionally sing along with the rhythm of a boring task. A fellow worker would yell, "Spit on me Frankie, I'm in the front row!".
He was funny and I hope he's still kicking.

Having to ride in a truck with Frank! I'm thinking that Mrs. Boring's boy may have suicided.

They tried to pin his very sad and sudden demise on me - the trial went on for close to 135 blissful days...All my jokes going back to kindergarten were lovingly scrutinized, and though tedious, the Judge was laughing out loud - so that was a good sign. The lame prosecution brought in the some of the greatest living 3rd rate lovey dubby, peace is the answer comedians to try and poke holes in the high voltage joke that supposedly put him over the edge causing his blood to boil and brain to pop. It ended up almost a deadlocked jury, but "Praise the Lord" of the Rings- wink, wink, I was acquitted - thanks to, of all people, a pot smoking uneducated loopy liberal agnostic - originally from New Guinea now residing in beautiful downtown Chicago. Anyway he was the only simpleton on the jury to pretend to understand the joke about Chewbacca being the conservative love child of a 99 percenter who married a born-again cannibal. Both claimed that they were not able to conceive, but were never seen at restaurants or the grocery store - supposedly because they were "to poor"...Wait, There's more -( a professional hockey playing flamboyant pygmy thug comes on to the scene - [for charity reasons] to secretly raise money for the NRA... short happy people LOVE their GUNS, they all conceal carry - don't mess with em) - for time considerations I'll end there. I've been cleared by the FBI yet still remain on "babababa-bad to the banana, leave this one alone" posters at zoo's in certain parts of enlightened barbaric countries, cough, cough ;)...and those pansies at the aclu are praying fervently to madalyn murray o'hair, hoping to locate some monkey made love stains I may or may not of left in Calipornias Silicon Valley, of course to use for their own perverted dining habits... oh well - back to playing this stupid fucking harmonica:)
Here is a mugshot - Is it me or Chewbacca, it's all making sense now - btw... The middle finger is used for nose grooming, it's not as it appears -
Love, Peace and Understanding to all you sick satirical bastards out there...
And if your not in that camp - do yourself a favor and run from this thread quickly,
MORAL OF THE STORY...
You could be one joke away from a stroke!
Be Satirical
Not Hysterical :)
