What do you think of this set by Louis CK? (Original Post) Sheldon Cooper Apr 2013 OP
Sadly, his point about men being the number one danger to women is too true, imho. No woman I know Mnemosyne Apr 2013 #1

has ever been hurt as badly in life by anything other than men; not counting car accidents, which mostly only do physical damage.

He is a bit hyperbolic, but pretty much on the money to me.

If he was serious, people wouldn't be able to laugh.

He's doing the job jesters have always traditionally done. Deliver bad news in a way that mostly-ignorant people won't reflexively get defensive about it and stop listening.

I hope he keeps it up. Apparently he had his eyes opened after the Tosh incident. I hope he keeps them open.
