SNL Review

[Slayer 0]

A Team of Bob Barrons would win a posting war against a Team of UTSUs

[Slayer 0]

Also, UTSU talking about anyone fitting a stereotype is funny

What if I faced Lance Armstrong?

[Guest Stunt Granny]

Now do boxing!!! I need to know how many Lance Armstrongs it takes to knock out Mike Tyson.

[Guest Stunt Granny]

Ditka would kill Armstrong in a cycle race.

[Special K 0]

SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU GUYS I HAVE A MAJOR IN TECHNOLOGY. Fucking retard.

 

That Japanese guy who eats the hot dogs really quickly? Would out-eat Lance Armstrong one thousand times in a row. Greatest athlete in the world. I am also discounting that civilized human beings have been on this planet for thousands of years. I just ate this really good sandwich. IT WAS THE GREATEST SANDWICH IN THE HISTORY OF THE EARTH.

 

 

 

Also Lance Armstrong would never win a game of one-on-one against Jordan. What the fuck are you smoking? Besides cock, I mean.

Could YOU ride a bike?

 

Oh wait....you can? Nevermind.

 

I wonder how much uproar I would cause if Helen Keller or Christopher Reeves ever hosted.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

I should immediately change my username to Kunta Kinte, because this joke just dressed up like Lorne Greene and bought me at a slave auction. It owned me.

^I was looking for a new quote of the week.^

 

Where the fuck were you last week?

 

But he's a walking parody of himself and his own TSM celebrity is one that is mocked and seen as the "stereotype" of every online poster - a nerdy weirdo.  He's that little kid in school that you see get picked on, but still tries to make nice with you, and you subtlely allow him to hang around

Shit, my ears are burning...

Did UTSHU just own...himself?

 

A internet first, ladies and gentlemen.

I laughed.

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

This is what I get for visiting a thread started by a piece of shit, virgin, nerd and his little friends that watch the outdated show that hasn't been funny since the way early 90's.

 

A bunch of pussies.

 

Learn to read, whoever the utter retard is who said I stated "Lance would beat Jordan ONE-On-ONE". God, it was probably easier for his whore mother to be accidently impregnated with the semen of a rapist than to make a coherent post. Makes you think.

 

And Barron, you weren't joking. You were just trying to put over a LAME joke in your LAME review by making a joke of cancer victims. And you're still a little pussy. I hope I see you soon.

After seeing the way this argument has gone, I've decided Bob's joke wasn't that bad.

[Black Lushus 0]

I dunno, UTSU's last post at 2 am was pretty damn funny...I can picture him typing it...

[Boner Kawanger 0]

And I thought UTSU was finished with this thread. He must be drinking again.

 

When I drink, I hang out with my friends and the Internet is the last thing on my mind.

Yeah, what nerds!

 

They should find something better and more productive to do with their time! Like, you know, constantly update the 2005 WWE win-loss records for every single wrestler that has been in the federation this year.

 

That's hardcore, right there.

[TheBostonStrangler 0]

I love message boards.

 

And now, as amazing as this might seem, I have something to say about Saturday Night Live. I didn't see this episode, but I'm glad to have Tina back on Weekend Update. I hate the Poehler/Fey combo as Bob does. What shocked me, however, was that when I watched the Heder episode, I actually liked Sanz on WU more than Poehler. I have hated Sanz with all my heart for about four years at this point, and he did a better job than Amy did on Weekend Update. I like Amy as a cast member (except for that stupid Rick Rick Rick sketch), but she needs to get her ass off the WU desk.

 

And I think Lance could be a solid host. His cameo in Dodgeball was one of the greatest cameos in movie history (and ironically, in light of this thread, showed that he had a sense of humor about his previous struggles with cancer), and he could be a damn good host if they play to his strengths. Jeter's episode hosting was really good, and athlete episodes generally go over better than random non-acting celebrities (like Sharpton, Trump, etc.).

[Guest Fishyswa]

It wasn't very funny. The whole "but he already had cancer so it's a joke!" doesn't really work. Do you joke about rape with rape victims? Do you joke about murder with someone who's family was hacked up? Ever consider maybe someone here has dealt with cancer and isn't too fond of people making light of it?

 

And I really don't think "but I wasn't talking to lance" is gonna fit the justification bill here.

Hey now, this thread went off topic a long time ago.

I like Amy as a cast member (except for that stupid Rick Rick Rick sketch), but she needs to get her ass off the WU desk.

 

The consensus with Amy is that she's really really good at sketch comedy and is a valueable assest to the show, she just sucks at Update. It's a shame b/c her terrible Updates always lower her rep in my eyes.

 

Horatio was pretty bad, but I will freely admit I was never going to get into him no matter what.

 

Tina is better then Amy and usually she has some good jokes, she's just so stale and boring.

If Lance is willing to make fun of himself and shows some range, maybe they can do something good for him. Too often the show is either a recurring character fest or the host just plays himself.

By that logic, you should never really joke about anything remotely offensive since someone might get all offended.

I wonder if Special K ever thought he would find out his dad raped his mom from a UTSU post.

Actually I was joking, but feel free to keep missing the point. I think it's funny that you think my reviews are lame, yet you read them, and get so worked up over them.

 

And....

 

I'm just going to ignore you, pizza face.

And with that, I bid him good riddance. I've already totally thrown him though the mud and proved I can own him in every sense of living.

 

Make up your mind!!

[Guest Fishyswa]

"By that logic, you should never really joke about anything remotely offensive since someone might get all offended."

 

Or just think for a second and consider the likelyhood. Big difference between me joking about cancer with a friend of 15 years in my house and someone joking about cancer in a review for a TV show on a message board with thousands of members.

I kind of agree here. I'm a cancer survivor (Missing a kideny due to it), and I hate when friends, knowing or not that I've had it, joke about cancer. However, I'm sure that there are people out there who have had cancer (Or other tragedies) and are comfortable with making light of that fact. The thing is, Bob probably should have known better than to make that joke (Which, as stated before, was awful, so I suppose I don't hate him that much for it. Were it a 'good' joke, I might have different views), although, the fact that there are a slew of racist jokes in the General folder might prove otherwise. So, basically, I don't know what the hell I'm talking about, as usual.

 

Also, Bob, I doubt Lance will be any worse than Jon "These things....these CHAINS" Heder.

I guess this makes me sound like a horrible person, but I really don't care if I offend anyone since I always believe "It's just a joke." People have made fun of me and poked fun at stuff about me for years and I always shrug it off since I know they don't mean it.

I'm glad you're not mad. I didn't really think anyone would be too up in arms over it, since it was just a thing tossed off at the end of my review. I've made tons of jokes some might consider offensive in my review before and no one seemed to mind.

 

I even made a similiar joke about Lance when they announced he was hosting at another SNL MB and no one seemed to mind, so I didn't think it'd be a big deal.

 

Also, Bob, I doubt Lance will be any worse than Jon "These things....these CHAINS" Heder.

 

This might be the most intelligent thing said in this entire thread.

While I side with Barron in the battle against UTSU, I don't know if the label of "friend" should be thrown around. I mean, Bob is allright sometimes, but I don't see myself going to his house to admire his collection of filthy hats and volumes upon volumes of celebrity photgraphs dating back to a picture of Baby Barron with Ronald Reagan.

[bob_barron 0]

Meh, my picture with Geraldine Ferraro is so much better.

The only athlete episode I really liked was The Rock. I HATED the Jeter and Roddick episodes, I only tolerated the Gordon one b/c of Avril and the Tom Brady episode sucked too. If Lance is willing to make fun of himself and shows some range, maybe they can do something good for him. Too often the show is either a recurring character fest or the host just plays himself.

 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

They haven't had a good athlete host in years. The Michael Jordan one to start the 1991 season was the best I can remember.

[Boner Kawanger 0]

Jordan had charisma, though. Armstrong might have been funny in Dodgeball, but that was with multiple takes and no pressure since it wasn't live.

 

I would like to say this, though. Shocking as it may seem, this whole situation just boils down to people having different senses of humor. True story. A few years ago, we had this guy that sat at lunch with us that went missing one day. A friend of mine just said "Maybe his dad died." We laughed.

 

Turns out his dad did die.

 

We told him about it the next day. He laughed it off and said it was cool. Some people just react differently to tragedies. The type of guy I am, if I survived cancer, I'd joke about it and hope that my friends would kinda laugh at it. That's just how I would cope. Armstong seems to have a sense of humor about it. In fact, he'd probably be more offended if someone, you know, made a joke about infidelity or something.

Yeah, but Armstrong doesn't get to have Public Enemy as his musical guest.
