When did AIDS become funny?
TWICE recently, an AIDS zinger was slung on the Chelase Handler / Chelsea Lately show. I was shocked the first time. I was really shocked the second time!
I watch her show every day. This happened twice in the last 14 days. And everyone on the round table thought it was funny and the audience laughed. I did not laugh.
Last monthX Factor finalist James Arthur became embroiled in a three-day Twitter row with comedian Frankie Boyle. At one point James wrote: 'Your (sic) about as funny as aids..
Thats not bad. Because AIDS is not funny. But on Handlers show the AIDS comments drew laughs. AIDS is not funny Chelsea. I have lost so many friends to AIDS - its no laughing matter. Whats next? Breast Cancer jokes? How about 9/11 jokes??What makes AIDS funny? but not breast cancer? NO disease or tragedy is funny.
