But look, Dave spent the majority of his special talking about some people who dared to think some of his jokes were not funny. Honestly, where is the humor in that?
He couldn't just think to himself, "Hey, humor is subjective, not everybody laughs at everything, it's all good!" and move on to something else?
Apparently not, because he's been going on about this for a while. I think, in this special, he said he first got flack about some comments about trans folk in 2005. 2005. Sixteen years ago, and he's still talking about it? Has devoted a good chunk of all of his Netflix shows to talking about it? For fuck's sake, where's his sense of humor? Why couldn't he just let it go?
Just saying, I don't think the issue is him being too "edgy", or others not having a sense of humor. There's a whole world of things he could have chosen to talk about, and I would have loved to laugh along with him about them. Unfortunately, he seemed more interested in using his massive audience to talk about how his feelings were hurt, that some people don't like some things he's said.
I mean, he's entitled to his feelings, just like we all are. But being mad that trans folk don't think you're funny -- sorry, that's just not very funny.
