Japan jokes

I heard two of them today. They were funny, but it made me wonder how much time must pass for something like this. I guess it's all objective. Gilbert Gottfried told one of the jokes, and supposedly he's catching holy hell over it. I bet Howard Stern would tell it in a heartbeat.

I will share the Gilbert Gottfried joke, just for you....

They have a saying in Japan...if your woman leaves you, don't worry...another one will wash ashore fifteen minutes later.

not funny, too soon. Either way I would be furious too if I had heard that on the radio

The only way a person can come up with that joke is if their perspective is so warped due to not ever experiencing anything like that. It's exactly opposite of insightful and is just sad. It requires a distance from reality that just doesn't feel intellectually healthy.

If somebody told that joke and got punched in the face nobody would defend them because nobody would be able to identify with the comedian in any fashion.

Remember that time you recycled an old joke to make fun of a world tragedy? No, you don't. Because you're not an idiot.

      Honest Conversation about Tulsky

      Sometimes it's nice to get an outside perspective on things we are emotionally invested in. NYT/Athletic did a midway breakdown of every teams' biggest offseason acquisitions. Here's our part: Notable additions: Nikolaj Ehlers ($8.5 million x six years), K’Andre Miller (acquired in exchange for a conditional 2026 first-round pick, a 2026 second-round pick and Scott Morrow) Early return: It took the Hurricanes some time to find Ehlers’ ideal lineup fit. He began the season on a line with Sebastian Aho and Seth Jarvis, but that combination didn’t really click, with their marquee signing registering just four points in his first 11 games. Since then, though, Ehlers has settled in and found his groove. The dynamic, speedy Danish winger has scored 27 points in his last 31 games. He initially built chemistry with Logan Stankoven and Jackson Blake, but with Jarvis’ injury, he’s been bumped back up to the top line with Aho and Andrei Svechnikov, with this new-look trio clicking impressively. Ehlers’ game-breaking puck-carrying ability has added an exciting new dimension to Carolina’s rush attack. He’s been a consistently dangerous play-driver (Carolina’s controlled 60 percent of scoring chances during his five-on-five shifts) and I’d argue his point production has actually undersold his impact on Carolina’s offense. Ehlers has collected a point on just 52 percent of the five-on-five goals he’s been on the ice for — he’s been snakebitten and has deserved to pick up a few more assists. I’m also still a fan of Carolina’s expensive bet on Miller. Yes, he’s made occasional mistakes and has been narrowly outscored during his five-on-five minutes despite his strong underlying metrics, but context is important. Miller was supposed to lead Carolina’s second pair, but Jaccob Slavin’s injuries (he’s only played five games this season) have forced him to take on a larger top-pair role. That’s meant eating a career-high 22:35 per game and handling some of the toughest matchups of all NHL defensemen. Miller has held his own in this daunting role, and I’d expect his performance to level up once Slavin’s return allows him to settle into the second-pair slot he was actually acquired to fill.

      Cam better be wandering up and down the sidelines as an honorary hype man/coach through the entire game Give Cam the halftime show (Cam IS the halftime show) Don't just roll him out with the drum and have that be it
