More and more it feels like that it was actually a Coulter roast and Rob Lowe was just a nice guy enough to lend his name.

Jeff Ross was on Conan last week and he said as soon as he heard, he stopped writing Rob Lowe jokes and started writing Ann Coulter ones.

100% authentic. Coulter is legitimately that horrible. I don't know who the parallel would be for wherever you're at but basically there are public figures here who will say basically anything to further the furor of the undereducated and misinformed in the US. It's... god i don't even know how to summarize it for someone who isn't exposed to it on the daily.

Basically what you think she's doing in every reaction shot is her first exposure to comedy. She legitimately doesn't understand what's happening around her but knows she needs to defend herself but doesn't know the parlance. The empathy you're feeling for her feels like just desserts to natives. basically.

The only reason she probably even agreed to this is that she's in an odd spot where her brand of attention-getting shock rhetoric that used to get her all over right wing media is absolutely tame in the Age of Drumpf, and she can't keep up so she just does whatever will get her Skeletor-esque face on television.
I don't usually watch Comedy Central roasts because they usually suck, but I might catch it to see her get destroyed because she deserves whatever she got.

I had an Ann Coulter audio book I used to put on to go to sleep with, and the only thing I remember from the experience is that she was absolutely adamant that liberals hate toilets.

CBJSprague24 posted:

I was waiting for somebody else* to use that in a joke, to be honest, though that could be in part because one of my lasting memories of Rob Lowe is Eddie Nero repeatedly talking about "Taking a MAN...in my mouth" in Californication.

*Somebody funny, that is.

Spade's opening monologue actually hit it but I didn't realize until I saw it for the second time. He says some people might have see him on grinder, and then follows with a swipe right reference. I thought it meant the app from the start, but the camera cuts to Savage at that point (I wasn't paying as much attention the first time round) and I was like 'oh of course'.

I was genuinely fearful that subconsciously I'd start taking in her bullshit. Luckily all that happened was I bought my best friend Joey hundreds of dollars worth of pants, for some reason.

Pete Davidson is great, looking forward to his special. Even if it's just an hour of weed jokes. Which it probably will be.

E: multiple uses of 'gently caress' in this, so FX definitely on that train at last.

Atlanta was good and pretty much exactly what I thought it would be. I'm not 100% sold on some of the more bizarre Lynchesque stuff but I'm assuming that there'll be a point to it eventually so I'll let it slide for now.

Also acting-wise Donald is the weakest point... which isn't to say he's bad, it's just that the other actors are really, really good.
