1986 is calling.

It is suggesting you turn on a TV or read a magazine.

If you understood the context of that picture, it is the assumption of the “I” in the word that gets the in trouble. The answer is “Nagger”.

It’s funny, neither the poster or you understood the origin or context.

[chiller]

IIRC, Rock has not been wacko crazy anti-Trump like the rest of Hollywood. The joke may have been cleverly, purposely ambiguous

[Ann Archy]

CLASSY!

[gas_dr]

Good to see your Post my friend

Since his “How Not To Get Your A$$ Kicked By The Police” and his “I Love Black People But I Hate Niggaz” I've respected Chris Rock.That respect completely vanished in the few seconds it took for me to read this headline.

[Fido969]

I didn’t see it, but reading it is like the joke: Trump has been exposed to covid. And now the virus needs to quarantine for 14 days.

SNL was almost always funny until Belushi and Ackroyd left.There have been a few funny moments in the 40+ years since...enough,perhaps,to fill one 90 minute episode.

Re: 42 - Actually I did understand what the correct answer is to the puzzle.

I also understand the context in which it was used by 1) Listening to the Rock opening monologue and 2) Checking the posting history of the poster.

Based on 1) and 2) is why I made the post I did - and I’ll stand by that.

[Nifster]

I don’t know. That’s a pretty funny line

[Ken Regis]

Similar crap flowed from Michael Moore.

[ronnie raygun]

One more puke off the list

[Nifster]

That’s not the way I took it. It made me laugh

Come on folks lighten up a little

Yes we’re all praying for our pres but humor is still good. Trump is tougher than this virus. He is going to beat it. If I were CoVid I’d be running scared

[Fury]

Thanks. Some stuff I’m not going to let go by without calling it out.

And this is easy ‘stuff. The COVID-19 - President Trump threads are the wild west LOL.

[Vermont Lt]

Yeah, I meant the context of the South Park Episode.

So, either you think Chris Rock is a Nagger. Or you are being a jerk.

I could go either way. Your choice.

I’ve been saying for days COVID-19 just posted positive for Trump 2020. The President is the man bring it on the virus is in trouble.

“Why hope for it to win?”

I’m not defending Chris Rock - I didn’t read the article - and I don’t doubt he’s a typical Hollywood Trump hater.

But in the headline, Rock said “my heart goes out to Covid” - that isn’t necessarily saying he hopes for covid to win.

I have heard this same comment used in a positive way.

In fact, someone once said of my mother: “She is such a fighter - I almost feel sorry for the cancer!” It was meant (and taken) as a high compliment.

Again, I’m not saying that Chris Rock’s intention was to imply Trump would kick Covid’s ass to the curb - but that is the way I choose to take it.

[Covenantor]

Took it the same way...having seen a lot of his stand up routines, consistent with his style.

Like Mister Tee, “I pity the fool...virus.”

[I want the USA back]

This is what today is called “humor.”

[mware]

Wait a minute. Isn’t he saying he feels sorry for C19 for choosing President Trump to attack. He is not rooting for C19.
