That was the worst bit of nonsense that I have ever seen from him.
Am I the only one who feels this way?

(205,074 posts)That involved a lot of in-your-face shouting. I did not appreciate that short segment, either, agree with RainCaster, it was OTT - and the thought of "pumpkin spice" flavored anything makes my throat close. Just one "bit" on an otherwise excellent show on the horrors of Trump's ongoing "border wall" project.

John Oliver dumped on the wrong Connecticut town.
The British comedian took the piss out of Danbury on his HBO show last week so officials are naming the local sewage plant after him.
We are going to rename it the John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant, Mayor Mark Boughton said Saturday in a Facebook video. Why? Because its full of crap just like you, John.
The move comes after the Aug. 16 episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver in which the host explored the racial disparities in the jury selection process, citing problems in a few Connecticut towns.

(For the record, I love John Oliver.)
