Funny: (Adjective) Causing laughter or amusement; humorous.Today in "Everybody Hates Carlos Mencia News," everybody still hates Carlos Mencia! Surprise! This time in particular, Mencia was dropped as headliner for a Spanish-language school fund raiser after school officials realized that his "humor" is pretty much always racist.
School superintendent Tim Cuneo told Post correspondent David Finnigan he dropped the show because of "issues regarding safety. There were veiled threats [of disruptions]." Serna claims Mencia isn't in touch with his Chicano/Mexican-American heritage and needs to "see his responsibility to his Latino audience. Mencia almost entirely relies on put-downs of Mexicans."
Mencia's flack, Howard Bragman, said: "Carlos tried to do a good thing and because of one guy's actions, the kids ultimately suffer." (Source)
Oh, nice "But think of the children!" act. I doubt the kids will suffer that much. How hard could it be to find another asshole who tells other people's jokes and makes "dur de dur" noises? In a pinch, I'm sure they could probably just use a kid from one of the school's special needs classes to stand in for Carlos Mencia.
his responsibility to his audience??? so he can't make fun of latinos because there will be latinos in the audience???
umm...isn't that "comedy"?
(and i don't like mencia. he's not funny. he's more blatant about his thievery than most comics - since nothing's truly "original" in comedy, where you have so many minds looking at topics from similar perspectives. he's not mexican. and most importantly, he's never been funny. watch old host segments of his from "loco slam" on hbo if you don't believe me).
