“You all gotta admit Micky Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany’s was pretty disgusting...”
I must disagree.
Until we were all TOLD to be offended by things, we weren’t.
Mickey was just kinda weird or kooky or bizarre, not disgusting.
That didn’t happen until fairly recently, when they started telling us so -24/7.
“Until we were all TOLD to be offended by things, we weren’t.”
...agreed. Audiences were rolling in the aisle when Rooney came on. Corny yes. “Offensive” no.
