George Carlin was first.
Joan Rivers got there just after.
We’ve been laughing at jokes about 911 for ages. Being edgy isn’t new, even boomers do it
I remember Gilbert Gottfried at a Friar’s Club roast. Can’t remember what the actual joke was, but I remember he lost the whole audience, and then won them back with a spontaneous telling of “The Aristocrats”
Kudos for Carlin, who made fun of government propaganda. Maybe not so much for Joan Rivers for making fun of FDNY widows.
(I’m not a boomer, though. Or a millennial. Or really that edgy anymore, if I ever was…)
Oh I know. And there’s some lessening of the emotions, I’m not enraged by the jokes this time. Just…sad.
