But when black comedians do it, it's funny. . .:confused:

Intentions matter...

It depends. The black comedian's use of the terms is not entirely with good intentions either.

Um, yelling slurs at someone is different than making a joke about it. It doesn't sound like he was trying to make a joke of anything here.

Now he's going to have to hire a black exterminator to go to dinner with him and accidentally bump into the guys he insulted and pretend they're life-long friends.

I'm just saying, there's a fine line. And the line does not lie in the same position for everybody.

Yep, he was wrong for that. It's ok that the audience member responded by calling him a 'white-a$$ed cracker' though.

I thought only season 7 comes out?

EDIT: And, IMHO, it was fake. Anyone ever see the huge fight on Fridays with Andy Kaufman?

If he wasn't washed up before, he certainly is (and should be) now.

He looks like a scary serial killer in that picture. And yet he was my favorite seinfeld character :(.

I dont see what the fuss is... a bunch of politically-correct pantywastes with their shorts knotted up is all this is. Audience insults him, he insults back. Big fvcking deal, it happens all the time.

I really have to wonder what he did immediately after he left the stage. I mean, that just took an awkward awful direction that it really shouldn't have. :(

That's an interesting point, I hadn't thought of that. Seemed like something Kaufman would do.
