"The PC police are not ruining comedy. It is a challenging time to be making jokes. You either accept the challenge or retreat into a past that was easier for you.”

Andy Richter on political correctness and the temporal aspect of comedy; in typical Richter fashion, wise as all get-out. Think of this the next time you hear someone (likely an old white guy) bemoaning the fact that some comedian from long-ago (likely an old white guy, although we know of at least one old black guy) wouldn’t have been accepted in today’s PC-heavy environment. You know, right before you roll your eyes into the back of your skull.
