Ah, yes. Hillary Clinton being irritable because she's menstruating. That's some fertile and fresh comedic ground that hasn't really been explored yet.

Of course at 60, Hillary probably doesn't menstruate all that much anymore.

Once I had a great idea for a joke about Reagan being sleepy, but unfortunately I never wrote it down. So now it is lost to the world.

:fixed:

But only because I'm bitchy after catching PMS from all these women who work around me and post on the same message boards.

A sixty year old woman menstruating? Do people really think that's typical?

I find it so bizarre, it's simply not funny. There's no hook into possible reality in that clip for me, that would make it humorous.

Oh, like Thatcher wasn't on the rag and crying hysterically when she ordered the sinking of the Belgrano. You just know she was. And don't get me started about that time Golda Meir's menstrual cramps caused the Yom Kippur War. lolololololol

Really. Not. Funny.

I mean, I don't even like Hillary, but that just sucked. YouTube gives too many people an audience.

No kidding, all through WWII Hitler and Churchill tortured prisoners and murdered innocent civilians, just to prove who was the bigger man. Much suffering could have been spared if the two could have been placed in a room with a ruler.

You people must lack a sense of humor. I'm not rabidly anti-Hillary except in regard to her DLC pro-business bias and her support of the illegal war in Iraq and I found it funny. Surely nobody here really thinks Hillary would be up and dressed in a pantsuit answering that 3:00 AM phone call when it comes in like her commercial depicted.

I dislike Hillary, but...I just didn't find it that funny.

Much funnier. It has way more "hooks" into reality that the previous one lacked.

Hillary on a couch in a pantsuit complaining about her period just didn't have any sense of "this is sort of what Hillary is like" about it, and so it came across as just bizarrely unfunny.

It's called satire, a form of humor sometimes not found funny by some, especially by those whose sacred cows are skewered.

Pantsuit.

I believe there is certain type of neurological disorder that causes people to mistake bathrobes for pantsuits. See The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat (http://www.oliversacks.com/hat.htm).

I think all pantsuits could be explained by a neurological disorder.

No, I think it's called an old joke. Sometimes not found funny by some, especially by those who have heard the same goddamn joke for two decades. After 15 years of repetition, "satire" gets stale and becomes "crap." OMG HILLARY IS A BITCH falls somewhere between airline food jokes and Nixon impersonations. It stopped being funny a long time ago.

So, when does Bill Clinton being a philandering fast food eater stop being funny?
ChuckF
03-14-2008, 10:51 AM
Fast food: ~1998
Philandery: ~1999 (non-Lewinsky based), ~2002 (Lewinsky-based). But this one can still be funny in some circumstances.
