You seem very upset that people don’t like them Nope, just on my soap box. I love comedy, and respect those for trying. Never did I say I found it hilarious, but there were some things he can build on going forward. I just don’t understand why people can’t be respectful of others while critiquing their work. Just a basic human decency issue... Rather than crap all over it, why not just let it fade away into the obscurity of the inter webs? 1

I'm trying to be responsible so I have moved back to Vasoline and a tube sock... need to save the Jergens for the Dr's hands after they chap from all the latex and powder in between all the handwashing. The Kleenex, well you know...

Take a look at this thread “more comedy gold from Chris Collins.” I think the overall takeaway was that we didn’t find it to be that funny. I think you are going a tad overboard. You have not problem criticizing the Bills coaches or players but when it comes to watching videos labeled “comedy gold,” it’s rude to say it’s not funny?

Bills coaches and players get paid obscene amounts of money. They are openly criticized by the media on a regular basis. This is just a random dude putting himself out there. You’re right that the comments here weren’t that bad other than the “abortion” remark. It just looked like people were starting to pile on, and I just jumped in before this turned into the YouTube comments section. 5 minutes ago, Sherlock Holmes said: I'm trying to be responsible so I have moved back to Vasoline and a tube sock... need to save the Jergens for the Dr's hands after they chap from all the latex and powder in between all the handwashing.

Needle Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) I liked the videos. They weren't incredible or anything but good for a one time watch. I agree with Ridgeway that everyone is in a race to dump on something because they feel it props them up a bit. Edited April 27, 2020 by Needle 1

Just a basic human decency issue... Rather than crap all over it, why not just let it fade away into the obscurity of the inter webs? This is a message board where people share opinions. Someone posted these videos and people, wait for it... gave their opinions. Just like about the draft, free agents, etc. it would be a boring world if we all felt exactly the same and liked and disliked all the same things. But it would be even more boring if we weren’t allowed to discuss why we don’t like/dislike something. Thats kind of the entire point of message boards and conversation, no? Fact is, if it was good I’d say so, IMO it wasn’t, so I said so. Some people said it in more of a comedic way. Kind of funny you’re all for someone expressing their comedy and getting on others for expressing themselves with their own brand. Edited April 27, 2020 by Bobby Hooks

All I’m saying it’s a lot ***** cooler to be kind and not ***** on people for trying to do something. If you don’t like it keep on moving instead of stoping to cop a squat in somebody’s Cheerios. But whatever, you’re clearly oozing elitist snark, so I doubt this zebra is changing its stripes any time soon.
