News that makes you say WTF?!?!

surprised there’s no thread on this here

it was a pretty soft joke. If it were Ricky Javais or Joan Rivers Jada would be ripped to shreds.

I hope whoever hosts next year makes a joke about this and see how Will Smith reacts, if he’s even invited back

Will Smith - The Sandbox / General - GoActuary

soft joke?? you do know she is shaved do to illness?

yes. And comedians make fun of diseases and death all the time. GI Jane is at least pretty. It’ll be funnier if he called her voldemort

Yeah, I thought Ricky Javais’s last hosting gig there, his jokes were pretty brutal. Not sure if he riffed on someone’s illness (other than perhaps undiagnosed mental) but didn’t he get a lot of gasps and no laughs from the audience?

Eh, Will Smith should NOT have hit him, but Chris Rock DID deserve it IMO. Making fun of the hair of a woman with alopecia is beyond tasteless.

I thought “nobody deserves to be hit”. Isn’t that the standard line these days?

Yeah, Will Smith shouldn’t have done it. But Chris Rock was being an ass and I don’t feel even a little bit bad for him, even though Will Smith shouldn’t have done it.

I think that was his job at the moment.

So what happened here?

People driving too fast (and/or driving at all) for the conditions. Times 100 or so.
And they say Californians can’t drive in snow…

I think that a man live-streaming on Facebook captured a pileup during a snow squall in Pennsylvania. That’s what I think happened there.

snow and fog mixed together creating zero visibility, people didn’t slow down, shit was crazy, a car was on fire, trucks rear-ended other trucks, and at the end videographer freaked out about his charger.

He can get another one from best buy for like, what, five or ten bucks? Nothing to freak out about, imo.

I was in one like that. it was snowing and all the sudden the road was a sheet of ice. I thought my vehicle was beginning to fishtail but the entire vehicle was pivoting with the front wheels going one way and the back ones going the other way and then all the sudden I was traveling at roughly the same speed I had been but I was traveling down the freeway sideways, the vehicle pointing perpendicular to the lane of travel. I then hit a stopped SUV with the back right quarter panel and I did a 720 before going into the center borrow pit. Probably the scariest thing I’ve ever been through? I was not the last car to crash. I stayed in my car until the cops showed up and were walking around. I was uninjured. When I got up on the freeway I almost fell down twice as did the cop. The whole roadway was a sheet of ice.
