Larry David’s ‘Piss Christ’

An email received today:

“First let me state that I’ve been a fan of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” for many years and, even though Larry David is a liberal, I generally enjoy the writing and Larry’s antics. However, this time what I saw made me feel a little sick, extremely disappointed and a bit angry as well. I will never watch the show again as I have lost all respect and feelings of good will for Mr. David.

“Did you happen to see the episode to which I refer? Assuming you did not catch the episode, briefly stated: Larry pisses on the face of a painting of Jesus Christ, followed by mocking of Christians who believe the piss drop on the face of Jesus is a tear, thus they’ve witnessed a miracle. I wonder how many other viewers, Christian and non Christian, are similarly shocked and disgusted? Of course, the hypocrisy is that Mr. David would never exhibit such gross contempt for any other religion, especially Islam.

“Can you imagine the shit storm that would follow if David pissed on a painting of the prophet Muhammad? Of course, HBO, the complicit scum that they are, would not have allowed that to air.”

This article ^[1] also mentions the incident.

Michael Savage is devoting the bulk of his show today to this topic.

HIs holding onto the chubby girl’s fleshy tummy, to prevent himself from falling off the roof, was in crummy taste also.

“Can you imagine the shit storm that would follow if David pissed on a painting of the prophet Muhammad? Of course, HBO, the complicit scum that they are, would not have allowed that to air.”

Simple. David wouldn’t have the balls to do that.

This industry must be brought to heel. Every aspect of it is at war with everything we cherish. There are no excuses for supporting anything that is produced by the entertainment indutry. They will take your money and use it to subvert you.

The show has been more obvious and just more mean this season.

[lilycicero]

Go figure, makes Dela Cruz a cool kid.

[nahanrac]

At least he had the balls to do it...

I don't think that Larry David has THAT much talent. As an actor, he is pathetic. Maybe his writing of "Seinfeld" was brilliant but, he lost it at that. Larry David is a "One Hit Wonder" trying, desperately to make a comeback. Racial, political, it doesn't matter. It's all about him. Pretty sad and hypocritical.

My opinion only.

[lilycicero]

Yes, yes he did...and to not LIE about doing it.

[clintonh8r]

Not the kind of thing that takes balls. Just some anger.

[Boogieman]

True, he is not really that talented, but he is just by his very nature the guy you love to hate, like his Costanza character on Seinfeld. On his show, he pretty much pisses everyone off sooner or later, be they lesbians, blacks, Christians, or what have you. So at least he is an “equally opportunity” a-hole.

I think Larry was making fun of people who see Jesus in pieces of toast and potato chips etc. and put all their faith in THAT instead of in Jesus. I watch reruns of Curb at 9:30 and have thought recently that Larry actually has a Jesus fixation - in an interested kind of way.

[nahanrac]

I wasn’t talking about Larry David having stones...I was talking about De la Cruz.

[clintonh8r]

Me too.

[Gapplega]

When is he going to do the Piss Torah? I’m waiting.

[MHGinTN]

Let’s wait to see if he has the cajones to do the PissKoran ... but then we know he would lose his head so he won’t do that one.
