I don't actually remember how I explained myself (I tried to look for your old post I commented on, but couldn't find it), but I do realize that say, I find the Kol Nirde a beautiful relic from a horrible time and he finds it to be creepy death music is just a difference of opinion.
I find his whole, "You stop being a comic when you get too angry" speech fascinating because I would have thought, with his specific style, he could get away with it. I remember when you showed me that Rachel Maddow article and it said she became a breath of fresh air to Air America BECAUSE she wasn't angry. And then when I found out about Patton I had to make the friends-locked, growly post because I was too angry to be funny. And I thought to myself, "Well, everyone knows liberals aren't funny when they're angry ... except Lewis Black!" But apparently he thinks so, too.
I don't really have much a reply, but thanks for taking the time to dig through my journal at all (yes, I'm projecting here) ::has had to dig fruitlessly through his friends' journals often enough..:: ;D
