Seinfeld is such a weird person to make that claim. Chris Rock or Dave Chappelle fine....But I'm pretty sure colleges can handle whats the deal with airplane food. Seinfeld seems like the funniest PC comic of all time.

I bet Michael Richards doesn't play many colleges. Too PC for his act.

Maybe someone will explain what's mad about it. Even if some of us don't fully agree, he sounds very reasonable as per usual.

Yup. They get triggered by just facts about the world. Life must be quite difficult for them. Gotta pass safe space laws for religious freedom. It's true that there are a lot of laughably pathetic campus activists, but this has been the case since, idk, forever. Conservatives actually pass laws to codify their right to safe spaces; and they still have the gall to rant about SJW's.

Shirley you aren't serious. It's more like the crowd wouldn't like it, or that they would interrupt. Lol @ comedians being afraid of college kids. Like, they also don't go around with shows at churches at every stop. It has nothing to do with fear. They want to put on a good show.

The conversation seems to have gone a bit keep left signs silly but fear of offending students is nothing like being fearful of students.

Fear doesn't play any role. Zero. Zilch. Nada.

Like, they offend various people and groups for a living.

I heard Gallagher stopped doing shows because the entire human race lost its sense of humor.

Saw Gallagher in Vegas a couple years ago for free (tiny room at Tropicana 1/3 full, all olds).

For real tho, I saw Gallagher in the 2000s in a casino in Indiana and he was hysterical. That guy is a lot more profane live than he is on TV. Also, Isaac Hayes was there.

I think there was a whole team of Gallaghers actually, he sort of franchised his persona out.

Okay, but I'm saying that colleges are not obvious venues for entertainers to stop at while on tour. Avoiding them because there's too many people with sticks up their asses isn't a big deal - remember the part where I said that they also don't play at churches? Comedy clubs are places that exist. Concert halls are places that exist.
