I haven't seen any of Discovery but people were complaining about Picard being too dark and it made me wonder if everyone just forgot about DS9.

My buddy was very excited to see Gallagher yesterday and it was a pretty huge bummer to watch the excitement drain off his face over the course of the show. We left before it was over, he just wanted to stay long enough to see him smash a thing or two. Gallagher actually structures his set in a way that feels out what his audience thinks is appropriate so he knows where to draw the line, at one point explicitly saying "I'm going to do 10 quick jokes in a row to determine what kind of crowd you are." And since this was a lovely bar in the Western PA suburbs, he never had to draw that line. The first 30 minutes were honestly fine, he started out pretty funny with a ton of energy and initially didn't say anything worse than like terrible jokes my dad would make, but after the 10 joke thing he said poo poo that frankly I don't even feel comfortable typing. At one point he grabbed a box of Rice Krispies and started shouting, "Spot the heterosexual! Spot the heterosexual! YOU CAN'T, they're all gay!" I can't imagine how filled with hate you must be to go in on Snap, Crackle, and Pop, of all people.

Mr. Carlisle posted:Yeah they must have edited out most of the overt racism from his old tv specials unless it was filed under "it was a different time, then" and my mind just blocked that garbage out from remembering it I don't remember a single thing from his old specials other than him smashing stuff, to be honest, and was kinda surprised there was so much standup beforehand. Obviously I haven't followed his career at all recently but the impression I've gotten from reading about him today is that he just did some borderline material earlier in his career, and when people started suggesting that it wasn't appropriate he responded by becoming progressively more terrible. Could be wrong though.

Mr. Carlisle posted:The way he talks about himself in the one or two recent years interviews I've stumbled across im not surprised, he's pretty far up his own rear end Early in the set he referenced having material that "they wouldn't like in Boston" and in hindsight that should've been a gigantic red flag

I just finished Kentucky Route Zero and I honestly don't understand the praise at all. Act I was very good but IV and V feel like high school creative writing projects. It's silly for the sake of being silly and completely loses touch with any kind of story.

New Order was good but The New Colossus is pretty clearly designed to suggest you should sneakily kill the captains or whatever and prevent them from triggering alarms, yet most of the levels are so wide open that it's impossible to play with any kind of stealth. I just turned the difficulty down to its lowest setting and blasted through everyone.
