O.K.- so per John Cho’s example of quoting Spike Lee: “black people can’t be racist because they are not in a position of power to influence anything.”

3 things:

BARRACK OBAMA
ERIC HOLDER

On an unrelated note, I just saw an old episode of Remington Steele about a boxer known as the Hammer. Yes, it was the mandetory boxing episode typical of all early 80′s action shows – written to capitalize on the Rocky saga. Of course the general plot was nearly the same as the boxing episode in the Hulk, the A-Team, and Highway to Heaven, just to name a few that come to mind.

But the Hammer was not a spry Itallian…yet was a “young” black man new to the fight game, being played by a 50+ year old actor getting his chance against the “seasoned champion”…a totally gray haired man of around the same age. Neither looked as if they had ever worked out, and the punches looked goofy. Of course the boxing trainer was a total rip off of Burgess Meredith too.

Gotta love that nonsense back then. The only thing sillier are the “high school basketball episodes” from the 90′s where they only use one corner of the gymnasium…or the bowling episode where they only use the far two lanes next to the wall.

Just a quick note to Ace about his story of sticking the piece of Fruit Roll-Up to his Stepdad’s bedroom ceiling: Fruit Roll-Ups weren’t introduced to US grocery shelves until 1983. You may have stuck it there later than you remember, or maybe it was some other fruit-leather type product? Not that it matters much, but when you said it was stuck there since 1973.. I had to check. My recollection was that Fruit Roll-Up’s were a new product when I was a kid in the early 80′s. No big deal.. just thought I’d contribute to the mystery of how it’s still there.. clearly time travel was involved.

I’m laughing so hard at the fruit roll-up picture that my eyes are tearing. You should take a few more photos, and submit them to an art gallery and call the show ‘Carolla House: An In-Depth Study of Abstract Apatheticism’.

Does anyone know the name of the song that Bald Bryan played when they were trying to inspire Adam’s number 2 black female fan?

If Amazon is such a great revenue stream, and helps keep the pirate ship afloat, then why on earth would the web developers design it in such a way that people have to turn off their ad-blockers for the click-through thing to work?!? What’s wrong with a banner, or a big-ass button at the top of the page?Isn’t this EXACTLY the kind of thing that Adam is constantly harping on?

Does anyone else find it hypocritical that Adam talks about how society has too much schadenfreude, and then later you can hear the jizz sloshing around in his pants as he announces that Conan is getting bad ratings? Aside from one incredibly minor bad experience, the only thing Conan has done to offend Adam is having the audacity to be funnier than his hero, that painfully unfunny talentless hack Leno, who is only still on the air because old people like his soft unoffensive lack of humor. With all his past rants about TV executives prioritizing everything above comedy in a comedy show, you’d think Adam would consider who is funnier in a late night comedy show slightly more important than who has been nicer to him.

The Perry gaffe is something that makes him look bad but it’s hardly a deal breaker. Keep in mind he isn’t reading off a teleprompter. And for those with short memories Obama had a few mistakes during his debates when he ran for POTUS. Perry isn’t my favorite but this has been blown way out of proportion.
