If Tim Allen is a FReeper, I have a message for him:

My wife & I saw your stand up act. We were disappointed. The F-word is not a joke, in and of itself, & screaming it repeatedly is not a substitute for real comedy.

I am not a prude. My mouth is not as clean as it should be. I've laughed at many off-color jokes & I laughed at some of yours that night. But, foul language, shouted without context, is just not funny. Being a fan of the excellent comedy of “Home Improvement”, I was especially disappointed.

We have also seen Sinbad’s stand up comedy. He never uttered a bad word, not one off color joke, yet my stomach literally hurt from laughing so long & hard. That was real comedy.

Sinbad was a good comedian... he ate lunch at the mall I worked at (insurance agency on the outside of the mall in the office part, but walked inside for lunch and saw him there regularly) and was just as funny just randomly chatting.

Sorry to hear that about Tim Allen.
