Imagine buying tickets to a well-established comedian's show just to hear them read Facebook comments for an hour.

Welcome to General Memes
Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cruel
Weβre here for laughs, not fights.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it light β argue in the comments, not with insults
Rule 2: No Forbidden Formats
Not every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (seriously, donβt ruin the fun)
- NSFW memes must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.
Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

Its fine if it is funny but they pick a lot of chud comments
Something something transgender something something not allowed to tell jokes anymore.
That's it, thats your "comedy" special.

I hope that hypocritical sack of shit's career never recovers.
Which one, I wanna cringe a little
He went to Saudi Arabia to make money and lost many fans. Myself included, those fuck faces killed and dismembered a journalist and deserve no international respect.
I mean it's not even that he went to Saudi Arabia and did this absurd show. It's how he handled the Fallout. If he had just handled it like a comedian by making a joke he probably would have been fine. He said "I'm sorry but you know I needed the money have you see my wife's Instagram page?" Or something like that he probably could have emerge somewhat unscathed. Battered but unbroken. But the way he handle it was just so tone deaf and so patronizing and so God damn absurd that a lot of it just had to tune out.
What way did he handle it?

I haven't found Dave Chappelle funny since 2005
Tbh he had good skits and bits but Chappelle in my opinion wasn't as funny as perceived.
His comedy really is that line "but have you ever seen it on weed?"
Like he's not this philosopher comic person people think he was.
Young Dave Chappelle was the greatest comedian of all time and Iβll die on this hill.
He still has some sparks of brilliance here and there. But fuck. Yeah. The meme is accurate.

While I still think Chappell is talented if he actually put more effort,
Man his comedy has gone downhill. Itβs not a skill thing, itβs a: βI care about money and I know Iβm gonna make enough anywayβ kind of attitude.
IMO this is why artists should never be payed too much. They should make what a good doctor makes, not enough to βbuild a brandβ
He was always this way. Born to upper-middle-class parents, growing up in the suburbs, cosplaying aa an urban poor black person to grift white people put of their money. Punching down on Mexicans and Asians, anyone he could to be profitable. Now it's trans people, but the grift has always been the same.
He has a pretty well known interview where he whines about not being able to make fun of gay people and says something about how Comedy Central didn't mind him making fun of black people and...
Well, Dave, I don't know if anyone mentioned this to you but you're black and not gay.
If he's always at some level just never really identified with other black people, or at least the poor ones, that would make a lot of things about that disconnect make sense.
When they become too rich they start making bits like "isn't going to the Bentley dealership the worst?" or "oh I hate it when I can't book first class and I have to travel on business cramped with all the others"

Went to a Jeff dunham show for free
That's all
I saw him easily 30 years ago.
His act hasnβt changed much at all. Still the same racist, low-hanging fruit as always. Just occasionally different puppets.

You ask for a refund after? I know free is free, but it would send a message.

I sat my girlfriend down to watch Robin Williams' Live on Broadway set because it was stuck in my mind as the greatest comedy show of all time. I love that man and miss him, but we had to turn that set off a third of the way through. It has not aged well
Same for my mom and I's viewing of "Good Morning Vietnam".
Yeah, uhm. Great film, if you can get past the 1980's Shock-Jock Robin Williams yelling to himself, from himself, at himself, back, forth, ad-nauseum.
