[quote="APK"]Sadly, I did like "your jokes are sinking" and "japan is really advanced." But I don't find the other ones to be funny at all. They're terrible, and morbid and not funny at all to me. But I think I'm too biased towards GG to have a valid opinion about this.[/quote]

I feel that if it came from, say, Barack Obama or George Bush etc., it would be disgusting and enraging. <br />You could call that a double standard, but Gottfried's reputation and occupation are based around his crudeness and lack of a filter (Pokes at his "too soon" 9/11 joke), while other icons are expected to filter their comments. <br /> <br />That doesn't make what he said right, and it's not that I'm defending him. I think he shouldn't have said it, but his stupid filterless mouth got him in deep s***, he apologized, and it's over IMO. <br /> <br />As for media coverage, I say move on from GG and onto what really matters. There are more important aspects of this horrible tragedy like what is currently happening over there and how we can help.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>AladdinsGenie</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Tue Mar 15, 2011 12:11 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">I'd agree with that if there weren't thousands of people dead, missing and washed out to sea right now. Making "another girlfriend will be floating by" jokes isn't controversial, it's just plain fucked up as is what's going on over there with a tsunami, an earthquake and now a possible complete nuclear meltdown. Most of those jokes, in theory, aren't that bad, but it's just too early to be making lol dead people jokes if there's ever a time to be making them. I'm usually all in favor for comedians not toning down their acts (Ricky Gervais and the Golden Globes comes to mind), but I can't defend this one as much as I don't mind Gilbert at all. Not to say he should tone it down, but sometimes not saying anything at all or waiting for the best time also works. Not even a week after this happened is just in bad taste. <br /> <br />It probably won't get that much press, though, as none of the stuff going on right now isn't happening in our country. Dead people jokes are funny when it's not about Americans.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Meesh</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Tue Mar 15, 2011 11:45 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"><a href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/the-10-worst-gilbert-gottfried-tsunami-jokes" target="_blank">http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/the-10-worst-gilbert-gottfried-tsunami-jokes</a> <br /> <br />^^There's 10 (all?) of them <br /> <br />Yeah, I saw that on the news last night. <br />I think Mashable got it right when they said <br /></span> <table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Quote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">There is no question that Gilbert Gottfried’s statements on Twitter were deeply insensitive — but then again, Gottfried’s humor has never centered around the delicate treatment of controversial subjects.</td> </tr> </table> <span class="postbody"></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>AladdinsGenie</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon Mar 14, 2011 10:48 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Now I'm curious about the Tweets.
