From the “World Would Be A Better Place If” File

Posted by danleone on May 19th, 2007

The world would be a better place if comedians would stop making fun of how rhythmically challenged “white people” are.

I was just watching Comedy Central (aka The Redneck Channel) and an African American comedian was doing an impression of white people dancing at a Prince concert. I think that joke wears thin after the 9 millionth telling.

Don’t get me wrong, I laughed. Also, I am not one to be offended by an appropriate and intelligent observation of stereotypes. But the jokes that always feel so “played” are of the White Men Can’t Dance variety.

Of course, I dance like your drunk uncle at your wedding so if the comedians would just shift to Drunk Uncle jokes, the world would be a better place.

My opinion until I change it.
