I think I've reached the point in my life where I appreciate good woodworking on furniture. Now I look around my house at my ikea furniture and it feels cheap.

And still by Berkeley Breathed who is both a hilarious and sweet guy. It's as if his career has turned full circle.

Bill Cosby sure seemed to like blondes. I do too, but I don't rape them.

That's not to be intended as a joke. I don't do rape jokes.

This whole thing sucks on so many levels. I own almost every Cosby record, loved the Cosby show, and he molded my stand up style of not telling one liners, but setting up a story that has a funny ending that is not only a call back, but a joke that relates to common sense unexpected twist.

When I tell people I perform comedy, I usually get either "Tel me a joke" or "What kind of jokes do you tell?". In the past I would say "I mostly tell a short story than jokes. Not comparing myself to him, but kind of like Cosby does. Tell a story from my life that is honest and hilarious".

I've studied his comedy. His delivery, his topics, his joke structure, and how the audience responds to his subtle jokes. He, as well as many others, has helped me pass auditions and mold how I tell a personal story.

I also get the "I would totally love to bang her" aspect, but acting on it...makes my brain barf. And f^^cking an unconscious woman against her will? That is perversion. That is sick. He should be spending the last years of his life in prison. And why isn't he? (I know the answer, but really...he should be in prison).

Dated a girl who once woke up to non-consensual sex. She was drugged, woke up, and ran out of his house weaing only a sheet. Not sure how the discussion came about, but I've never watched someone tell such a horrible story while crying waterfalls of tears the entire time. She used the words "I feel ruined" and her pain was strongly palpable. Luckily she also went to the police and got the guy locked up, but still...yikes.

I'll never understand why someone would want to have sex with someone who doesn't share the same desire.

Then again you have dudes that screw goats, so who knows? I just don't get it.

Has Bill Cosby been proven guilty in a court of law of any of these accusations?

...technically no but he admitted in a sword deposition that he purchased quaaludes with the intent of giving them to women he would have sex with. I'm all for "innocent until proven guilty" but I don't see how anyone can argue for his possible innocence at this point.

Normally it isn't too hard for me to separate a creator from their works. I love Roman Polanski movies even though I also think the guy's a total scuzzbag who deserve jailtime. But Cosby's different since so much of himself is in his comedy. I was never a huge fan but if someone still likes his comedy, I wouldn't hold it against them.

If guilty means admitting to buying and administering drugs to have sex with women who were unaware they were going to be given drugs and then raped, and then Cosby paying them off to keep quiet. Then yes, he was proven guilty.

Getting off by screwing a passed out body...just eww, That's way too close to necrophilia.

the coz is not too far away from being worm food, so I hope he admits to all his raping. Dying without a clear conscience can't be a good thing for anyone. That said, I once used a game genie on my Nintendo on Super Mario Bros. so I could do the moon jump.


whew. That felt good to let out.
