In response to "He was already part of the story, because of his history with Jay. My point is not that Letterman crossed any lines too, rather that neither have." by musubi

Yes, Leno's not funny, but the joke itself is. "How do you get this guy to leave you alone? Marry him." is funny. -- nm

Wow. pixie level humor is funny to you? -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 21, 09:20 10
- And humor that is milder that half the jokes made everyday on late night is over the line to you? (nm) - musubi Jan 21, 09:21 9
  - I don't care about the line. It was not funny. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 21, 09:24
  - Exactly. In the context of the last two weeks and with Letterman's recent history, how is that not a good shiv? -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 21, 09:23 7
    - I believe that if any of the other guys said it, no one would be saying boo. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 21, 09:26 6
      - Because either of them would have made it *funny*. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 21, 09:27 5
        
        So say that it was unfunny, not that he overreacted (shotgun per you B2 post). - musubi Jan 21, 09:31 3
        
        The IM was the key to my message. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 21, 09:35
        
        it can be both -- nm - i'm gay for batman Jan 21, 09:33 1
        
        So make a cogent arguement for it being over the line. So far the only rational arguement has been it's unfunny. - musubi Jan 21, 09:36
        
        Word for word. Yet it would be a different reaction. Hell, it's funnier than some of the lines Kimmel did last week that got him tons of praise. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 21, 09:30
