You know, he would probably find an ad like this both sexist and racist, as well as homophobic:

This kid has some ‘issues’

(Not that there is anything wrong with that!)

Anthony sees the tree but not the forest. That’s the problem with a large percentage of the Millenials. The education system convinced them that wisdom has no value so they only study knowledge. And here we are.

Thanks Anthony, for your insight. I am so glad you learned so much in college. I’ll have a grande Americano, leave room for milk.

He’s the editor of his college paper... It really is tragic what is happening in this country. The commies won.

He’s on a slippery slope.

The kid obviously won that George Costanza scholarship.

I tune out when I see "learner" instead of student.

I know I'm a bad father, but I let my 13 year old son watch "Blazing Saddles" last night. I warned him about the language, but he loved Mongo and the campfire scene.

The movie's over 40 years old and it still cracks me up.

Not long ago, I can remember reading an interview with a woman who discussed what things are like on a lot of university campuses these days. If my memory serves me properly, I recall her mentioning that these so called “safe zones” are quite often rooms that have stuffed toys and other kiddie things that the students can go and cuddle up with if they are bothered by something.

In my day (about 25 years ago) in university, I liked going to working men’s pubs and country music nightclubs well away from campus. I also discovered that I really did prefer to play hockey without a facemask or helmet (better sight and hearing and overall sense of where you were and what you were doing out on the ice). I know I’m being a little silly to mention these things, but to think that campuses are now filled to the brim with characters like the one who wrote that letter to Jerry and who need these zones just really takes my breath away, compared to even what I did back then.

I see that Anthony is like most kids these days. They can’t get along without using the F word with regularity.

Ah for the good old days of the KINGSTON TRIO.

They’re rioting in Africa
They’re starving in Spain
There’s hurricanes in Florida and Texas needs rain

The whole world is festering with unhappy souls
The French hate the Germans
The Germans hate the Poles

Italians hate Yugoslavs
South Africans hate the Dutch
And I don’t like anybody very much

But we can be tranquil and thankful
And proud for man’s been endowed
With a mushroom shaped cloud

And we know for certain that
Some lovely day someone will set the spark off
And we will all be blown away

They’re rioting in Africa
There’s strife in Iran
What nature doesn’t do to us will be done by our fellow man.

If students filed 8 to 10,000 complaints per semester it would quickly come to an end.

Sexist humor and racist humor can no longer exist in comedy because these concepts are based on archaic ideals that have perpetrated injustice against minorities in the past.

Anthony, take my wife... please?!?

I read the letter.

I predict a new routine or show based on this poor kid’s letter.

Can’t wait.

Oh, the protestants hate the catholics,

And the catholics hate the protestants,

And the hindus hate the moslems,

And everybody hates the jews.

But during national brotherhood week, national brotherhood week,

It's national everyone-smile-at-one-another-hood week.

Be nice to people who Are inferior to you.

It's only for a week, so have no fear.

Be grateful that it doesn't last all year!

He should apply for a grant from the Human Fund.

From this dopey kid's letter:

Provocative humor, such as ones dealing with topics of race and gender politics, can be crass and vulgar, but underlying it must be a context that spurs social dialogue about these respective issues. There needs to be a message, a central truth behind comedy for it to work as humor.

So apparently we need a Comedy Czar to analyze all jokes and make sure that they have a "central truth" and spur a "dialogue". I guess once the "dialogue" is over, you are then permitted to laugh at the joke. But don't laugh too loudly! That might be seen as an act of "microaggression".

Imagine the exploding brain matter if George Carlin were performing in today’s colleges.
