    I’ve stopped.being surprised when online comedians run out of material and just start lifting it from other comedians

    Man, 2013 Rogan was just him talking to other out of work comedians about Fear Factor. Not sure I miss it? Definitely would prefer it.

      In the past, Rogan had some pretty good guests on. So there was a lot of it being “smart guy explaining things to a dumb guy”, and him just being all “wow” at whatever was being said was fine.

      But at a certain point he started thinking that he wasn’t a dumb guy and began talking about what he thought about things and having on guests that thought the same way as him. So now it’s just the “dumb guys talking dumb guy shit” show.

      As awful as I found fear factor itself (I’m very afraid of heights and squeamish), I’d still prefer it.

        It wasn’t the heights I had a problem with watching. It was the eating. My stomach got unhappy just watching.

          Yeah, I don’t love the idea of being covered in bugs or snakes or something, but it’s definitely worth a huge sum of money. I know eating live scorpions (or similar) isn’t worth it for me, and I’m pretty sure I’d literally have a heart attack if I had to do a heights challenge, so they’re definitely not paying enough.

      The cat is part of a right-wing propaganda group, so Joe was 100% on board with having it.

        Not true. All cats are members of the same anarchy organization. He just duped them into thinking he is in alignment with them.

          Cats are (American) libertarians.

          Completely dependent on a system they neither understand or appreciate, while claiming complete independence from it, and constantly try to tear it all down.

            I lol’d,

            But when i think about it more, cats could actually go feral and survive on their own

            Unlike libertarians who couldnt last 2 days wothout driving their fat asses down a publicly funded road in their giant SUV fueled by publicly subsidized gas prices. Driving to go to the supermarket to buy food produced with farm subsidies and whatever public funds are upholding the temporary foreign slave labour we import seasonally to harvest food…

            American libertarians are just republicans who are ashamed to call themselves that. Also, some of them like weed.

            Well, you’ve messed up my claim. Yes, some cats are totally like that, and would never survive on their own. Others wouldn’t give their past human servants a second thought if they found themselves outside. Still, they are not right wing.

              The right-wing attitude can be boiled down to “I’ve got mine, fuck you, give me yours”.

              The details vary, but that’s the core of it.

              Cats certainly qualify. I own three of them and they’re all assholes.

                Feral cats even benefit from the vast amounts of waste we generate. Mice and other prey live off our scraps, even if the cats don’t directly.

                It’s scary how analogous they are to the libertarians. Never seen a cute libertarian though.

    I love Adam Tots stuff. Not my favorite of his, and no I’m not a Rogan fan, but not bad for a weekly submission.
