    My exact thoughts. Dick's comment was planned ahead of time for its PR value, I bet.

    He was also on The Ben Stiller Show which despite only lasting 13 episodes was a great sketch comedy show.

    Although in this case, Andy Dick should've taken the advice of his character Skank: "SHUT YOUR STINKIN' TRAP!!!"

    just because you use an offensive racial term doesn't make you a racist.

    period.

    Ben Stiller Show was also great. Like you said, it was a shame it never got a chance and had such a short run. The cast was great: Stiller, Dick, Bob Odenkirk (Mr. Show also rules) and Janeane Garofolo (sp?) are hilarious (well Ben Stiller has been doing one to many big time mainstream movies lately). The 'Cops' sketches were especially memorable.

    I don't really want to turn this into a d&d thread, but when you break it down, we all have our "prejudices". Each culture discriminates against another culture and we are just in an age that seems to try to be stifling all comments that could be misconstrued. It gets old.

    Bill: "And then there's the way these rappers refer to each other with a certain word which, which I won't even repeat."
    Catherine: "What word?"
    Bill: "The 'N' word."
    Catherine: "Oooooh."
    Matthew: "Nerd?"
    Bill: "Worse."
    Matthew: "Worse than nerd? Um, I don't, this is a tough one."

    Another racist comic or a complete dumbass? No wait, Damon Wayans is black so using the n-word is okay, or is it not?

    http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20061206/ENT01/612060391

    Also, it was funny to hear Paul Mooney drop n-words on the Howard Stern Show....nice to see him keeping his promise. I don't think anyone should be shocked with people like Richards (forget Dick) when the black community uses that word like it's nothing. Everyone should stop using it.

    andy dick's comedy is that of an overly stupid morAn. so stupid that i think it's funny. aamof, i thoroughly enjoyed the andy dick show when it was on mtv. fantastic stupidness. :D it would be cool if he made a comeback. i guess you just have to "get" his humor.

    anyhow,

    it's funny you say that. there really are a lot of racist fags out there. pure ridiculousness. an underlying problem in our community.

    Why? He was clearly making fun of Richards by calling everyone in the room the "N" word.

    It was classless, yes, but it is the same type of humor that Howard Stern uses.....

    Also, you have to wonder what is in Richards heart, whereas Andy Dick was just poking fun.

    I wonder who #3 will be. These acts seem to be failing miserably.

    I'm sure it came off as funny, especially since they were just talking about Richards moments before the one liner.

    Still, it would have been even funnier if he had followed it up with a tirade on crackers and then maybe everyone would chill the f*** out.

    Blacks are allowed to be racist with no repurcussions. This is society's apparent standard. That's why they are allowed to insult all other races. You just can't insult theirs. That's the rule.

    Ever listened to AB's act? My point is made.

    I feel the same way, it was a cheap laugh. He wasn't expressing himself in any way.
