Fox News:喜剧演员如何在过度敏感的美国进行表演(2)

2019-12-05来源:和谐英语

Some say they just try to steer clear of politics. So, I keep my thoughts to myself, and I wish the best -- I was on the Kimmel show with Kamala Harris, and she said, do I have your vote? I go, I'm a convicted felon, I can't vote. I'm not convicted, but the point is, you know, take some pressure off. They've always like bringing up silly things, and that sort of keeps me out of the political arena. I've always wanted to open a Christian buffet called God helps those that help themselves. So instead of thinking about like, do these people necessarily agree with me on every issue or whatever, I just think about what every human being has in common. But others like comedian Bill Burr like to push the envelope. The Me Too movement. White male privilege. Hipsters. I'm a male feminist. By the way, this is going to be my last show, ever. Well, Trump, is he gonna make it happen? I don't know. He's one of those guys. It's like watching a guy almost hit a tree in a car. He's gonna die, no, he's got it, he's got to die, no, he's got it. It's very compelling. No means no, that's another one. No means now, it's like, no, it doesn't, all right? Look, look, no means no. No. That means no. All right? But, no, stop it, what are you doing? Let's try. You're being so bad. Stupid. That means I want to do it, but I'm afraid you are gonna judge me. 

It's just a little longer people looking around when you first come on stage, and then they gradually loosen up and they are fine. So, there's sort of this chicken little time that we are living in, where everybody is acting like the sky is falling, and it isn't. No, this is nothing compared to reconstruction of the Vietnam War. This is child's play compared to how divided it was then. Meanwhile, John Mulaney of SNL fame does admit he's had success staying away from the political material. When I was a kid, I used to watch America's most wanted, you know how kids do. And I would always think to myself, how could another person kill someone? And then I got cheated on, and I was like, OK. If you try to think of a topic everyone will like, you won't. If you say something very specific about your own life and it's funny, more people relate than you can understand. And just in case you are feeling pessimistic, iconic actor Michael J. Fox wants you to know he remains optimistic about America's future. I believe in American people. They will figure it out. You know, you always appreciate what the nice guy is going through in the United States. You spend less time judging people and more time empathizing with what they're going through and figuring out what we can do to help. I'm always optimistic. I'm a pessimistic optimist, right? I expect the worst to happen, and I can't wait for it to happen because then I can make fun of it. Talk about optimistic. Michael J. Fox had surgery on his legs, had to relearn walking again. He is just such an uplifting human being. So, we thank them for talking to us.
