"It's Your Fault For Not Stopping Me From Doing Something Stupid, So Imma Gonna Sue You!"

So, to sum up, some critter charged the stage at a Dave Chappelle show, tackled Mr. Chapelle, and received a beatdown in the process. He's now suing because, I don't know, he didn't like getting his ass kicked. And said critter alleges that, no, he didn't assault Mr. Chappelle, it was an act of protest. And yes, part of the complaint seems to be that they didn't stop or prevent said critter from acting the fool.

Crimus. This smells as though some ambulance-chaser is cruising for a quick settlement. If it goes to trial, a reasonable jury would laugh themselves silly. But then again, this is California.

Speaking of stupid shit, SNL is being accused of "bullying" for satirizing some former child star who has been trying to redo herself as an edgy gay pop star. Satirizing people in the public eye, especially in the entertainment industry, is what SNL does. And, as far as that goes, there were probably a million or more SNL viewers who had no frigging idea who JoJo Siwa was. But now they do. For someone in that biz, satire is still publicity and it didn't cost her a penny.

You're right ~ never heard of her. But since we're there and YOU brought up aging pop-stars I've recently out of utter curiosity watched a few YouTubes of Brittney Spears little surf-band and they're actually pretty darned good. And of course I had to click through because that's who I thought it might be and ... ahhh, well I'm not sure a SNL skit would be fair

It's because I've been hanging around with you liberals I've gone all soft-hearted, got nothing to do with crossing into that eighth decade ...
