Double standards are annoying.

So I was watching Jimmy Falon tonight and they did a bit where they put up like 3 channels and made a cable package deal out of it.

For example Cartoon Network, Comedy Central and some other channel was the "Legal weed" channel.

Anyway....they do one where the channels are Lifetime, Oxygen and some other channel and dubbed it the "I'm going to kill my husband" package......and the women in the audience fucking yelled and screamed for that shit like he just showed pictures of some actor nude.

Seriously, if men got all excited for a wife killing joke the symbolic shit would hit the fucking fan.

How exactly would shit hit the fan?

I didn't see the segment, but you describe it as if it was the audience members who were cheering for violence against men, rather than the entertainers actually promoting violence against men.

And that's the thing here...it could MAYBE be a double standard if it were the ENTERTAINERS who appeared to hate men (or at the very least, their spouses) and got away with it when an entertainer of the opposite sex would have had a hit to his/her career. But that doesn't sound like that's what happened. It sounds like the only ugliness came from THE AUDIENCE, and that it's somehow a double standard because the idiots in the audience faced no repercussions. This begs the question: what exactly do you think SHOULD have happened to those audience members? In what way SHOULD "shit have hit the fan?"

Knife the wife.

@MrGeezer: I'm not sure what you're saying. I'm not talking about the entertainers doing anything I care or don't care about.

I'm saying the women in the audience hooped and hollered for violence against men.

And we both know if it was violence against women: 1. There would have been a different reaction and 2. If men were to hoop and holler for violence against women....they would have started a #cancelthelateshow hash tag by the end of the show.

1) What would the reaction have been? Would the entertainers have put the entire show to a halt just to lecture or berate some audience members who were idiots? Would the rest of the audience have drug the cheering people out on the stage and skinned them alive? Please clarify what you mean by "a different reaction."

2) Why would there be a campaign to cancel the Late Show when no one involved in the creation of the show had anything to do with the stupidity? Again, as you describe, the stupidity came from THE AUDIENCE.

To reiterate, I didn't see the clip so maybe I'm missing something. But the way you describe it makes it seem sort of like a heckler in the audience while a comedian is doing a standup routine. That's just shit that is potentially gonna happen any time you record a live performance in front of an audience of dumbasses. Some comedians will stop to poke fun at the heckler/idiot if there's good material to get out of it, while other comedians will ignore the dumbasses in the audience (up to a certain extent) because tghey don't want to let a dumbass audience ruin their routine. It just depends on the circumstances, but this kind of shit happens all the freaking time and the entertainer's reaction varies wildly. The fact that you're trying to make some kind of actual issue out of this is pretty strange.

Don't we all?

if you want to hear/see something really fucked up, watch the clip of the talk where they all cackle about a guy getting his junk cut off

Edit: here, jump to 43 seconds to start

Thought they're gonna show the cut off penis :|

Think you might be reading too much into things my friend

What the tc is describing sounds like people in the audience did what they were supposed to and laughed and clapped at some bit. Not showing support for people actually killing folks. People like the tc need to take a step back and assess themselves

It's true though. Those are the i hate men channels.

For example, I remember oxygen showing a 12 hour marathon of movies where men beat their wives.

LOL that's Lifetime in a nutshell.

It's scary how little fucks people give regarding domestic violence against men. I've read that somewhere around 40% of domestic abuse is female-on-male, but of course no one gives a shit because men are supposed to just take it up the ass (figuratively speaking). And if the cops are called, chances are they'll laugh in his face or even accuse the man of violence and arrest him. As far as I know, there are several shelters for battered women but none for men.

**** this world and its shitty ways.

haha, someone said, "knife the wife." Idk why, made me cry.

Anyhoot, yeah, that's a double-standard, I'm sure. The feminazis would have a field day for a bunch of guys wooping and whistling over that; Feminists are actually redoing all the work done by true women's rights supporters. Rather pathetic.

Also, why you are watching that dunce, man!?

Dat girl on the left :3

Yeah...those are seen as the 'I hate men" channels. That seems to be the joke, from what I can tell.

And as Dave pointed out, that makes the TC's comment kind of weird. TC makes it sound like the women in the audience were cheering about killing their husbands, when from what I can tell from the TC's description it's entirely possible that they were cheering at the joke.

As in, the reason the women were cheering was BECAUSE they actually got the joke that was apparently slamming those kinds of channels. Meanwhile, some anti-SJW sees some women cheering and thinks that the cheering validates the notion that women just want to kill and enslave all men.

It's hard to tell without seeing it in context, though, which is why it'd be nice for these kinds of threads to include a link to a source.

@mr_huggles_dog: i hate hypocrites :p

I must have to explain it better.

This wasn't the usual laughing and cheering for a regular joke. It was the extra stuff that happens when they make a weed joke or something in particular that makes some audience members go for the extra clap or cheer.

Okay. I'll take your word on that since you saw the segment and I didn't.

That still doesn't indicate what Jimmy Fallon SHOULD have done to those women, and it doesn't indicate that he WOULD have reacted any differently if the dumbasses in the audience had been men cheering for violence against women rather than women cheering for violence against men.
