"College kids are too politically correct for Jerry Seinfeld.

The comedian spoke to ESPN Radio host Colin Cowherd for an episode of "The Herd with Colin Cowherd" to promote the latest season of "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee," and the two talked about political correctness and comedy. Cowherd commented how comedians like Chris Rock and Larry the Cable Guy won't perform at college campuses for this very reason.

"I hear that all the time," Seinfeld said. "I don't play colleges, but I hear a lot of people tell me, 'Don't go near colleges. They're so PC.' I'll give you an example: My daughter's 14. My wife says to her, 'Well, you know, in the next couple years, I think maybe you’re going to want to be hanging around the city more on the weekends, so you can see boys.' You know what my daughter says? She says, ‘That’s sexist.’ They just want to use these words: 'That’s racist'; 'That’s sexist'; 'That’s prejudice.' They don’t know what they’re talking about.”

And the destructionist that wrote that article proved Mr. Seinfeld absolutely correct.

Btw, Arthur Chu has been neck deep on the SJW stormtrooper side of things re: the Sad Puppies campaign and GamersGate.

I gotta admit ... I've been away from FR for a few years, but have recently been getting back into it on a daily basis.

One thing that I've noticed is a huge increase in posts referencing articles from Salon, and it's really perplexing trying to figure out what in heck many of the Salon writers are trying to say in these articles.

None of them make any sense. It's like reading an incomprehensible stream-of-conciousness rant citing people, places, and events that nobody has ever heard of !
Yes, I know that this is the manner in which many lefties 'debate', but it surely boggles the mind how any of them can comprehend what the other is saying ....

Eeenywees, that's my take on it, and dammitJIM I'm sticking to it :)

Peace & Love,
Mr. Moonlight

Jerry Seinfeld is the latest brave middle-aged white man...

61 is middle-aged?

It’s interesting that the post just after this one is about a gay hotel owner being kicked out of a gay bar just for talking to someone who doesn’t support gay marriage.

Obviously Seinfeld is on target, which explailns why Salon had to go to great lengths to set up a straw man argument and destory to deflect the incoming fire.

Jerry Seinfeld gets 100 million hits a month for his interviews. Some are very funny. All so far are interesting to watch his interaction with the guest as they drive around and walk and talk and get a cup of coffee.
