...but in his latest website posting,
Larry the Cable Guy continues in the Snickers tradition of, well, snickering at homophobic violence:
Speaking of on the ball, I can't believe the guy that played "Doogie Howser M.D." came out of the closet. Doogie gay? What the hell's going on? Now I hear he has a new show on Logo called "Dookie Trousers M.D." (c'mon that's hilarious!) Evidently it's on after an all gay survivor show called, "Survivor Country Bar". (Badabing!)
Emphasis mine. You know, I can almost tolerate the awful dookie joke, but this "Survivor: Country Bar" crap is about as funny as a reality show set in 1950s Mississippi called "Survivor: KKK rally." Badabing! Haw haw!
In the future, I like to think this sort of "humor" -- which persists in being very mainstream -- will take its rightful place alongside blackface minstrelsy and racist cartoons in the annals of backwards entertainment.
Don't ask how I wound up on Larry the Cable Guy's website.
