    Is it bad that I don't even know who Louis CK is?

    No, just for context he’s been one of the top and most prolific comedians for close to a decade now. Also had a hit show that he writes, acts and edits.

    I think he was careful to point out that there was consent

    Well I still watch Seinfeld when I want a comedy fix. I probably missed him.

    I always hesitate to say that someone should have gone and done this, or done that... in the moment our bodies act completely different.

    It's actually a social psychology thing, but that is really really long-winded... but we as humans often think we would do something, OR THINK someone should do something different than what they did... but our bodies react way different in those rare situations like this.

    You're not missing anything. Never laughed at anything he's done.

    Again, my opinion, so maybe you'll love him?

    Totally agreed.

    "He that is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone."

    I'm not going to pretend that what the dude did wasn't fucked up. I'm not going to justify it as not as bad as Spacey (but it's not). It's fucked up, but the guy stood up and owned it.

    It isn't close to what Spacey did.

    For sure.

    And for that, and the fact he has owned it the way he has, he shouldn't have his career completely derailed by this.

    I could see Louis doing an apology tour ...do his Weinstein and Woody Allen jokes...his Spacey jokes and his own lack of dignity jokes....donate the proceeds to the charities of those women's choice...thing about Louie is he's been embarrassed about himself his entire life...

    I had an idea today. I'd be a professional kid actor bodyguard. I'd wear a live streaming camera that records 24/7 when I'm watching your kid.

    How the hell did Marv Albert keep a career? His consulting services must be in high demand now.

    I highly doubt that C.K. is done. He will be out for 2-3 years then he’ll make a return. Unlike many actors or media types, C.K. doesn’t need to be hired to perform. He is very y self’s effacing and very smart. He will figure out a way to be accepted again.
    Kevin Spacey - he’s fucking done!

    Bullshit.

    "I learned yesterday"

    Fuck off with that. You apologize for all of your past misgivings, but you only learned yesterday? Fuck off.
