    Older musician here, Love your stuff. That was a time when no one got crazy about jokes with no bad intention.. I grew up in a Military family and never was aware of "Racism" until I was about 12 . We live in a different world now . I lived all over. It is bad now but I wish for the best.

    I can’t believe how sensitive everyone is these days. Don’t laugh it’s offensive. Dark humor is what got me through some stuff. I am a 90s guy . I was born when dark humor was a thing for like 11-12 years something like that. Plus I have been disabled since I was 8 years old. I spent a lot of time with that dark humor.

    we didnt care about race back in our Gen-X days, everyone made fun of all races and stereotypes because we didnt take it seriously and made jokes all the time. I dont know exactly when that changed, I think it was around the late 90's it started and kept getting more and more "woke". I lived in the south, had a group of friends who were black, white and hispanic. We all made fun of each other equally, and no one got offended they just returned the joke and we all cracked up. We didnt care one bit about race.

    We have to be able to laugh at ourselves.
    That comedian who called Puerto Rico a flouting pile of garbage was funny and correct.
    Puerto Rico does have a waste management issue do to having to import everything, and a growing population creates waste fast on a tiny Island
    I truly don't think they recovered from that hurricane they had.
    Maybe we should address their infrastructure considering they are a territory of the US.

    Joe Piscopo did a whole series of Miller Lite ads exploiting the insane shape he was in; besides the Bruce Lee parody, the one I remember most was one using the old cold-war trope of russian woman (athletes?) being masculine--Joe and several burly guys in drag. 11:45
