Achmed the dead terrorist

No linky-linky to this yet?:hmm: Anyway, its: :rotfl:

[JSLTIGER]

This guy has one of the funniest acts I've seen in a loooong time.

[Chock]

It comes dangerously close to being in bad taste, but I have to admit that it's very funny.

“Silence!! I’ll kill you!”

LOL, Jeff Dunham is the hands down the funniest act I’ve seen in awhile. So much so, I just bought both of his DVDs. My wife and I played “Spark of Insanity” (this clip is from that DVD) for a couple of friends that we had over for dinner a couple nights ago and they were laughing so hard they could barely breathe.

If you got a kick out of Achmed, check out some of his other puppets. Walter is my favorite out of his act. Sure, some of it borders on bad taste, but you can get away with it when “it comes from a puppet.”

That's funny, but kind of offensive to my heritage (Iran).

"Are you kidding? I kill YOU for a Klondike Bar..."

Just to be a thorn...why would YOU find it offensive? Should I consider "Walter" offensive because he makes fun of getting old? Or Jose the Jalepeno (on a stick)?

How about Foxworthy? :rotfl: I'll bet you roll on the floor when he's on.

Chris Rock? Yep, that's funny stuff too.

Not baiting or trolling, but just wondering how one thing is funny, and one other isn't. Even given a general base.

Well I enjoyed it....for it's humerous content

Why I find it offensive:
A) I'm Middle-Eastern and people constantly poke fun at our SERIOUS problems.
B) Stereotypical statements about us ALL being terrorists gets old... FAST. It's not even close to being correct. Hell, half of us have never even SEEN a terrorist...

Foxworthy sucks. Ron White deserves his place. Remove the Cable Guy and the other fat one and just leave Ron in. He's true comedy (smart with it, too).

Chris Rock isn't entertaining, he's just annoying. His jokes get old after about 10 minutes. Hell, I'd rather watch 24 hours of Seinfeld than one of his films...

I choose what I find funny and what I don't. Making fun of a serious problem isn't funny. Making a little joke is funny.

Now, I'm choosing to end this conversation with you.
