"Smoked 3 joints been bothered by non cops 6 times... Suck my d--k San Antonio... San Antonio sucks and so do their tacos."

Tweeted the comedian Ronald Funches, quoted in "Comedian unhappy with San Antonio shows leaves a crude message for the city" (LMT online).

I'm blogging this because: 1. I think the contrast between the insults and the headlines is funny, 2. I can't tell exactly how hostile/self-critical Funches really is and the complexity intrigues me, 3. The concept of "non cops," 4. The specificity of the numbers 3 and 6 and the issue whether details like that are essential to humor, 5. This is the second post of the day and the first post had brats and this one has tacos.

I'm getting the message: "451 Unavailable For Legal Reasons. Sorry, this content is not available in your region." on the whole LMT site.

It seems EU data protection act is fully operational

Really BDNYC?
I suppose so, but i always think of San Antonio Chili

Being from Central Texas, I can see where San Antonio might be a hard town for certain comedians. I understand the Rio Grande Valley is difficult as well.

Darrell said...

What percentage of his act is Trump material?

Now, if 6 turned up to be 9 I don't mind.

Comedian? That's Not Funny. Really.

Three spleefs of modern weed in one setting? Do the math. One puff of Purple Haze sensimilla = an entire matchbox of 1968 Panamanian Red. Beyond baked. Self induced stupid.

Funches has the munchies?

Three second take when I read that was that it was about nine cops bugging a guy smoking pork butt. It's all about the BBQ.

Suck my d--k San Antonio

He's not very feminine...

I live in NC and work in NYC, and in both places the open smoking of marijuana seems to be completely tolerated--in a way that the open smoking of tobacco is absolutely not. I didn't know people would even complain about it anymore, out of fear of appearing uncool.

Like Nixon going to China - only Althouse can bring brats and tacos together.

PM said...

...and so do "its" tacos.

Proof or sarcasm? I believe that tacos where started by Mexican silver minors as a poor man's meal.

Oops s/b "silver miners" fat fingers are the enemy.

I thought it funny when Kathy Griffith told some WH official to "Suck my Dick"

Tell us more Kathy!

rcocean said...

As the San Antonio guy - i bet he's really, really funny.

Funny Looking.

MadisonMan said...

(Why DO so many comedians die in San Antonio?)

Supposedly when the Marx Brothers were still in vaudeville, they bombed in Nacogdoches, TX. There was a runaway mule outside, and half their audience left, thinking was a batter show. Groucho started ad-libbing insults, including "Nacogdoches is full of roaches!"
