That said, I really don't get the absolute hate spewed across the Netflix reviews. It's not even a very political routine, other than being against blind, mentally ill terrorists getting guns (and, I mean, she did have to deal with and talk about people getting shot at a showing of her movie, so it doesn't exactly come out of the blue.) As I say, disappointing, but still some laughs spread throughout and nothing really in any way disturbing. I don't really want to explore the cesspool that breeds the sort of hate expressed, but it's pretty frightening.

Louie CK's new special had me laughing a lot. Something to offend everybody!

Really enjoyed Chappelle on Netflix. That Kevin Hart story was the best

I saw Birbiglia last night. Not doing comedy. Sam him in a grocery store. He had a ton of shit in his arms and dropped a can of soup. It's like, "Get a basket, Mike Birbiglia!"

Yeah we had a great time. Loved the opener's visual joke about "her" political agenda.

Sarah Silverman's Netflix special is the right kind of wrong. She goes hard at the old time shock value comedy for a lot of it.
