Imus show suspended due to racial comments

I loved that movie White Chicks! None of my friends got it or me for that matter. Did you know that it won a Razzie for being super bad?

What's a Razzie? Is that the awards show that gives awards for the worst scenes and worst movies and such? I think the Jenny McCarthy movie won worst movie or something last year if that is the same thing.

Yep, that's the one. Razzie is short for raspberry as in 'blowing a raspberry' or making a farting sound with your mouth.:biggrin1: That Jenny McCarthy movie was another one that I really liked. It had the funniest menstruation scene I have ever seen - totally tasteless but it tapped into all my menstruation fears from back when I used to be bothered with that kind of thing.... I think I have a real appreciation for tasteless comedies. I loved Borat! :heh: I wonder if there is a support group for people like me other than teenage boys.:phanvan

BORAT WAS THE BEST!!!! So funny that you say the thing about teenage boys. My husband told me last week that have the sense of humor of a 14 year old boy. Tasteless comedies is my thing too. You ever seen those movies that are dubbed "dark comedies" ? The best one I ever saw was called Very Bad Things. It has Christian Slater, Cameron Diaz, Jeremy Piven, Daniel Stern, and numerous other great actors. If you like tasteless comedies you will love that movie I think.

Sacha Baron Cohen really is a hugely talented man, but this movie is cringe worthy to be honest. I love to laugh and have a great sense of humour, but this movie is so purile and juvenile.

SBC is a Jew and so am I, but I can't stomach this. I remember being a scared ten year old child and a man spitting on and verbally abusing my grandfather calling him a "Jewball". I still remember that incident to this day.

Well that just goes to prove my other point. People have different senses of humor. I thought this movie was hysterical. I loved it. All of Sacha's characters that I have seen him play (Borat, Ali G, racecar driver in Talladega nights) have made me laugh. It is hard to beleive all those people are being played by the same person.

This on the other hand does not make me laugh and sounds pretty awful. This goes beyong someone just saying something rude/offensive to someone else. This ass spit on your grandfather. That is assault.

Yep, I've seen Very Bad Things and loved it!

Susannah, I am really horrified by what happened to your grandfather. My father's side of the family is Jewish. Most of them died in the Holocaust. Nevertheless, I found Borat to be one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. This is because I have a juvenile sense of humour. I also used to like Howard Stern and I loved the Dave Chappelle Show.

I have the first two seasons of the Dave Chapelle Show uncensored on DVD. I had never seen the show until I bought those DVD's. It is hysterical and I wish he would have continued with more seasons. In the second season, there is a guy on that show named Bill Burr. He is a comedian from New York. He is often on the Opie and Anthony show on XM Satellite Radio. I think he is the only white guy on that show. He has bright red hair and freckles. He also has a 1/2 hour stand up show on HBO. I would recommend you see it. I think you will like that too. Opie and Anthony are very similar to Howard Stern. In fact they are big time rivals that HATE eachother.

hi foodstampchamp,

your son sounds sweet. Here in Jersey, for pre-K age kids they offer a pre-k for kids with special needs where it can affect their learning. Also, the school has speech classes in them. check your local schools they may have the same thing. My daughter was misdiagnosed by teachers as having a hearing problem because she had a speech problem. She passes all hearing tests even the "in depth" ones by a hearing center, but she is in speech class and has mastered all but those tricky R's.

My son was diagnosed with his hearing loss within 48 hours of his birth. We knew from the beginning. He was about 10 weeks premature and was also a twin. I was careflighted to Salt Lake City, Utah to give birth. Apparently it is the law in Utah to test newborns hearing. I guess that law had been passed a couple years earlier. I was shocked that they tested for that and even more shocked when I found out he was deaf. When he got to come home a few months later the Nevada Early Intervention program started coming to my house a few times a month until he was 3 years old to help with his speech/communication development. Now we are waiting to hear back from the school district for further help. He is doing pretty good though we think. And he is very happy.
