    I do not care for him using homophobic and ableist words as insults, but he’s from Boston so it doesn’t surprise me that he does. Other than that, he seems like a decent guy.

      What homophobic and ableist words does he use? I’m trying to think of times when he said one and nothing is coming to mind.

        The one that starts with F and the one that starts with R. The famous rant that he had where he heckled all of Philadelphia is a very good example.

        It’s a very funny rant, but that part does not make me feel very good to hear.

          Was pretty normal for the times. Back when I was a kid people used them as their go to insults. Like everyone I knew. I haven’t heard him say those slurs recently. Times change, people grow.

            “For the times?” That happened in 2006. Times had changed long before that.

              Maybe it’s growing up in a small town in Alberta and being a teenager back then, but the world has progressed a LOT in the last 20 years. Much for the better, but to pretend that it hasn’t is disingenuous man. Ask any lgbt+ person in their thirties or older if you don’t believe me.
