The Seinfeld Dude....

He didn't write his own character in Seinfeld, so he could also be dumber than rocks too.

On a semi-tangent, I was trying to think about what he could do to redeem himself somehow. He's not really, really old or anything. Maybe he should try to get on Comicview or something like that. I know they wouldn't want him on, but millions of people would tune in to see what happens when he takes the stage. If he could handle it, then I'd take back my criticism of his composure only. His character is still looking pretty bad right now.

I fail to see how I compared this luser to the "King's of Comedy"... I think you have read way too much into what I exactly stated, which clearly was, would homeboy say that same chit in front of them...

Is homey a fairly decent stand-up comedian? He maybe an "okay" actor that was funny, back in the day... And he invoked some of his "contacts" to "jumpstart" his career. If he was trying to make that change, cannot have redemption, ever... Unless he did a stand-up comedy routine at Def Comedy Jam with Russell Simmons... Maybe I'd give him props if he survives...

What's the difference between Michael Richards using the "n-word" versus Katt Williams or Mike Epps--who use it all the time? The audience racial make-up? The "level" of understanding? Richards loses his temper due to a heckler and says racial epithets that were not funny... Katt or Mike say almost the same thing, it's funny as hayle...

The use of the epipthet in language fails to desensitize to "soul damage" it inflicts or the conjectured imagery. That is why that one word is so painful and wrong in any public audience.

But you try explaining that to your friends and the kids and as Darryl James says, Stupid Ass Negroes...
