I thought it was obvious enough, but after MM's thread, you never know. People are likely to believe Dennis Miller is just that bad.

I fully understood your post was sarcasm. I was just commenting on how pathetic Miller's insult was.

I had to go back and add the sarcasm emoji.

However, in my defense, I truly believe this the best that Dennis Miller could have come up with if he had given the effort.

But I did respond to one about his post -- I'm working on a comment on me being roasted and I'll have it for you Thursday. Responded with "It must hurt that Michelle Wolf is funnier than you. And more relevant."

When he was on SNL, he was truly hilarious. I mean, he was one of the best comedians going.

Then around 2002, it's like he lost his mind. He became a completely different person. It's like he contracted some sort of viral dementia. And it's gotten worse ever since.

Seriously, what happened to him? As a former fan, I got to know.

Miller used to be able to skewer deserving targets with elaborate metaphorical rants, but the schtick only worked because the butts of the jokes were obvious to the audience and Miller alike. But a few years ago, Miller decided to side with life's political absurdists instead of making fun of them, and he's been pretty much impotent ever since.
