So going to a show means you want to be the entertainer? I think there is a big difference between being entertained by someone and wanting to be them. That said, if you really think he's a role model for anyone then I guess it's hard to argue with thinking Amy Schumer is as well. I guess we have different ideas of role models.

What's with the hate? She got rich and famous doing what she did and ultimately, its you guys who supported it. I don't get all the Kardashian or the Honey Boo Boo shit but hey guess what, there's a fucking market for this bullshit.
Saying she's fat, ugly, or not that funny has no relevance to what she has achieved. |

Do you think Dice is a good role model for men?

I said: "He didn't sell out Madison Square Garden two nights in a row because nobody wanted to be him." And you: "So going to a show means you want to be the entertainer?" Maybe I'm missing something. Just so you understand, I was saying his popularity meant inevitably some people idolized him, not the absolute going to a show exclusively means one wants to be him. Sorry you missed that. Also, if the person likes him and his style more power to them, just like with Amy Schumer. I'm not saying people shouldn't have opinions but the more you're separated from a culture or experience the less qualified you are to hold extreme views. I'm just addressing the folly of spewing opinions in such a matter of fact way, even if I'm talking to a rock. I'd be fooling myself if I think I'll change any views on a forum like this though. |

Fundguy1 was expressing an opinion, not dictating anything. If anyone is trying to dictate a way of thinking here "in 2016" it is you. It's fine to disagree but some people (including me) are completely fed up with the judgmental PC crowd. Plenty of people are perfectly capable of forming their own opinions without your assistance even if you don't agree with all or any of them. Also, to be clear, having people idolize someone does not make them a good role model. Cult members idolized Charles Manson. That didn't make him a good role model. However, I won't ask my question again. It's clear you don't want to answer it directly and that's fine.

I'm not gonna single anyone out or disagree on the characteristics of Amy Schumer. I've already made my point that she's fat but not funny fat and she's not funny. Lastly, she allegedly portrays herself in hyperbole that is unbelievable - unlimited sexual prowess...
I just hope not be judged for my opinion nor anyone else to be. That opinion we're all entitled to and we're entitled to disagree/agree. Where the line is crossed is if we judge...regardless if its from a PC lens or one of pure disagreement fueling personal insults/attacks. At the end of the day, it's just Amy Schumer. No big deal. Just a big chick. Doh! |

Not sure if you're serious, but my previous post was not intended to be passive aggressive or single you out, hence the blatant qualifier. I was trying my best to redirect the thread to be more about the subject rather than attacks on each other's right to have an opinion.... I've got no beef with you. But you obviously felt the need to lay claim to respond and respond in an antagonistic manner. This, leads me to believe you just love to troll. For you to call anyone else out for being arrogant is a sure sign of your extreme narcissism. As a matter of fact, in one post you allude to the fact that you intend to change people's minds. In other words, who died and made you the PC/morality police? Again, no beef with you. So don't troll me. |

Na, I'm just kidding. I've got no beef with anyone in this thread on a personal level, in case anyone thought otherwise. I will address one thing, the post I was alluding to changing people's opinions, that was me lampooning myself for even continuing the discussion, it wasn't meant to be taken at face value. This isn't my first day on the internet, I'd have to be really naive to think I could persuade anyone on a forum like this. |

She's funny at times. Don't like her politics tho.
I'd bang her. But then again, I'm a sucker for blondes. (No pun intended)

I struggle to comment because funny is so subjective. For example, i never understood Letterman, just never ever got it.
he'd sit there, stare at the camera and say "today, a man rode a horse" ... then cue 5 minutes of shit music from the shit band and the crowd goes nuts. DO NOT FUCKING GET IT. |

Wow sucked me into reading this entire thred. Chanel surfing the other day and I just watched her show live at the Apalo theater on tv.
I thought she was funny enough to watch it to the end, had a few laughs. Stand up is a real contact sport, can't be easy. Although she is not my idea of a supermodel , I thought she had great legs especially in that short skirt and high heels, yea a little thick but come on fat! Halarious to think about what all you people look like when reading this , granted you could all be the beautiful ones but still hilarious to picture some out of shape, mullet hair , yellow tooth couch potato commenting on your sexual preference twords her because she eats a few extra donuts at breakfast. if I had a shot at having sex with her I would jump at it in a heartbeat and come back for more when ever offered. I don't have a preference to intellectual , slap stick or vulgar comedy what ever works for me at the moment and the other night she worked for me. |
