yeah I think if you were offended by Dana dressing up homeless for 3 seconds of a skit, you get offended A LOT

People tend to get offended on behalf of others out of some sort of moral directive, but it's hard to take it serious unless the person complaining is/was actually homeless.

What a tool. He has no sense of perspective.

There is nothing funny about a multimillionaire dressing up as a homeless person. Maybe if the richest country on earth didn't have a homeless problem he could pull it off. But that's not the case.

And I'm not sensitive. There can be jokes about homelessness that work and are funny.

But a fat bald multimillionaire is not the way to go about it.

If that makes me a pussy, so be it. I certainly won't be putting any dollars in Dana's pockets anytime soon.

Dana has a sense of humor I mean hes trying to convince me that Chael Sonnen has a chance against Jon Jones.

Dana wouldn't recognize a sense of humor if he saw one.

This generation is filled with a bunch of entitled, selfish, and sensitive pussies! It's f*cking pathetic.

if you saw the clip and you were offended by it.. you probably are a little feminine.

Probably because he thought it was better for business, not because he was personally offended (regardless of if he actually was or wasn't).

The actions of companies are almost always based on profits.

Not to mention, dressing up like a homeless guy for a three second skit isn't really on the same level as rape jokes IMO
