it's not nameless widgets or whitelabel switches where you can just ignore it.
- cm2012 5mo agoI promised you every single individual business could say the same thing. No product has any value if people don't know about it.
- newaccountman2 5mo ago> having a message I don't think most comedians really have any cogent "message", nor do I think that's part of the job
- picofarad 5mo agoYes, people who have worked with Paul Feig are not comedians, that's possibly where you're having contextual issues.
- Forgeties79 5mo agoThen I don’t think you really understand comedy to be honest. That’s a very reductive view of comedy, essentially “just a joke with no relevant context or layers allowed,” which rubs against the entire history of the art form. No working comic would agree with you. Put another way: Not everyone is looking to do revolutionary commentary, but good luck finding a comic with no commentary at all.
