I must be out of the loop did something happen w/ Jack Black?

[–] kernelle@lemmy.world 3 points 20 minutes ago

Apparently when KG was blowing out his birthday candles on stage they asked him to make a wish, and he said "Don't miss Trump next time". JB is working on his clean image and stepped away, I don't think they have any beef tbh, but the D is on hold atm. source

[–] Senseless@feddit.org 2 points 27 minutes ago

Yeah same. Before I opened this comment section I've never even heard of a person that dislikes JB.

He is also a spineless worm

[–] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 14 points 2 hours ago

More of a clown every single day tbh

Hes really lost a lot of my respect.

Is the d back together again? If not, I don't want to hear it!

I mean if i was kyle gass id tell jack black to go fuck himself. He made a big fit over a simple joke when his whole shtick(before being a literal clown for Disney(tm)) was being an 'edgy' comedian who writes songs that are supposed to be offensive.

Lots of times when me and KG are watching

All the fucking shit that goes down at City Hall

We get the feeling we should fuck shit up

Yeah, we should fucking start a riot

A riot!

And the song continues to tell about the destruction of the government, with the implication that previous leaders are dead. It's obviously a joke song, and when KG made the joke on stage it should have been taken just the same, but Hollywood Jack stepped in and thought about all of the movie deals he was gonna miss out on... like fucking Minecraft... Yeah. I love Jack, and I wish him the best, but I am on KG's side, and if they haven't fixed this shit on a personal level, and Kage comes out with some shit about Jack sucking, I'm gonna wave goodbye to the D.

I mean do you know for a fact he isn't depressed? Comedians tend to do a pretty good job covering it up.

Didn’t he have Lewy Body Dementia? As I understand, depression is a symptom, but the disease is far deeper than that.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 15 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

He was pretty open about struggling with depression for most of his life.

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Shit. I didn’t know that. I always thought the dementia lent to the depression.

Man. What a tragic end. I think I’m going to do a deep dive on his life soon. I have such admiration for him.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I think the dementia diagnosis lead to his suicide but I think his life-long struggles with depression made him relatable enough to be a comedian that could become successful and not lose that relatability, unlike some one like Jerry Seinfeld.

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Oh I absolutely agree! Mental health colors art. In all forms. From comedy, to fashion, to traditional art, to music… seeing the world through the lens of depression is relatable to almost everyone at some point in their life.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

It’s the internet, you’re not supposed to agree.

You’re supposed to call me a dumbass and explain in detail why.

[–] puppy@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago

You're a dumbass and I'm certain you're just like your namesake, I have so much more to say were it not for the fact that I'm extremely busy with important stuff!

Jack Black on Yo Gabba Gabba is legendary.
