this shyt wasn't ever entertaining to me, not even now. but especially as a kid - sorry, i couldn't relate to being a white/jewish 30-something new yorker that lived the most cracker ass cracker of lives. friends was a straight rip of living single, but they were more relatable if we're going to start praising 90's-00's cac sitcoms

No you cant and your fat joke example is "ridiculous" a cop isnt going to execute a random person for being fat. There isnt media e-fit for fat ppl that has now become synonymous with crime. Faticism (if u can call it that) is essentially just name calling and if that fatso doesnt like it they can eat healthy and remove that weight in some cases. I dont remember anything like jim crow or slavery in fat ppls past thats still prevalent today and I dont know of any soap that can wash the black off a man/woman skin.
You have a race thats been the perpetrators of inhumane acts throughout history, the debris of those acts are still prevalent today especially in the west. A joke cites one of the most infamous acts of barbarism and you sharing a likeness to the perpetrators dont see a problem with finding such a joke amusing?
no, i'm black and i don't like this show
That's cool lol I just don't like the blanket statement that black people don't like it. Just like I don't like the stereotype that all black people like Tyler Perry or all black women like Tyler Perry. People need to stop trying to generalize us and realize we are just as varied and diverse as any other nationality in this country

your original argument was that white people shouldn't find humor in a joke if they can't relate to it, so by that logic someone who isn't fat shouldn't be able to find humor in a fat joke.
so do you. would it be okay if i held you accountable for the acts of other people as well?
if you find it so barbaric and cruel then perhaps you should be more angry at the person telling the joke in the first place. obviously it's not something you feel should be taken lightly.
you know you could have just said "i don't like white people" and kept it moving, and by the way i'm truly sorry to hear that.
but kill dat noize breh.

Dude I can see what you are trying to do and it still falls flat not only for the reasons I stated but for the simple fact a fat individual can simply become slim & vice versa..Unless your name is micheal jackson you aint about to be white if you came into this world black its just not the same thing.To make some parallel between a physical condition and social construct is
you can only take that logic talk so far, unfortunate for you it doesnt apply here..You asked a question and I am answering. The question here is irrelevant to the topic at hand..
I dont like the n word being thrown around but out of some misplaced sense of identity AAs have adopted the word into their lexicon, it is what it is. Getting angry is fruitless I just know those who use it are of a certain mentality. A lot of of the def jam alums used
jokes dealing with black brutality by the hands of cacs in the name of comedy. Sure ppl laughed but personally I didnt find it funny same way I wouldnt have found any joke about CaCs catching bullets to the head funny during the washinghton sniper hysteria. For you to find any joke out of the rodney king beatings kibd of illustrates my point about white pplAnd how exactly does this further the dialogue? we are having a debate where one side says comedy does have colour lines you disagree. We are bringing forward the facts, just because I am holding a mirror in your face and its ugly as hell dont come at me with that weak crap

If you don't think Seinfeld is one of the greatest it's because
1. You don't understand the humor
2. You have very limited life experience
3. You don't understand what quality writing is
4. You have no understanding about how important the chemistry between characters is
A lot of people are exposing themselves in here. Except for the people who mentioned Fresh Prince and Martin

as someone who loves, loves, loves seinfeld and has basically seen every episode countless times... i completely understand why someone wouldn't find it funny.
i know at least a few people who find the characters very unlikeable.
