    I’m absolutely fine with trans jokes or dead baby jokes or literally anything, just make sure and not to forget the joke part

      Yeah, these aren’t even jokes, more like some weirdass gross power fantasy.

      “God forbid I ever go to jail. But if I do, I hope it’s in California. Soon as the judge sentences me, I’ll be like, ‘Before you sentence me, I want the court to know I identify as a woman. Send me to a woman’s jail.’ As soon I get in there, you know what I’mma be doing. ‘Give me your fruit cocktail, bitch, before I knock your motherfucking teeth out. I’m a girl, just like you, bitch. Come here and suck this girl dick I got. Don’t make me explain myself. I’m a girl.'”

      I am trans, and it’s hard to not take the insults personally, especially since this “edgy comedy” is coming from a comedian I used to admire and respect. What the fuck, Dave?
