I don't like Jimmy Kimmel
Added 2023-04-28 04:00:03 +0000 UTCPardon the incredibly blatant episode title haha, but I've wanted to dive into a few of these late night talk show hosts for a while now, and with Jimmy Kimmel poo-pooing those talking about Epstein lately...I figured there's no time like the present! The more I researched Jimmy (Kimmel, not Fallon) the more I realized...I think my suspicions were right. The guy is weird - especially towards women! Check out the episode and let me know...what are your Jimmy Kimmel thoughts?

Ew JK is so gross! I was in grade eight in 1999 and I remember being horrified and disgusted by the Man Show. I remember guys in my class would watch (of course 🙄) and talk about Juggies and how Jimmy and Adam were the coolest guys 🤮. It definitely wasn’t tongue in cheek or satire at all, they wrote the show to be sexist and demeaning and it aired because the execs and advertisers were/are sexist and demeaning. I didn’t know about his Epstein connection but what better way to “raise funds” to start your new business than to ask people you have dirt on… Let’s be honest NO ONE would bat an eye if it came out the JK was a regular on pedo island or at the Epstein apartment.

2023-04-30 21:02:58 +0000 UTCAlso just a heads-up that your man Jay Leno made some abhorrent Monica Lewinsky jokes back in the day.

2023-04-30 16:53:35 +0000 UTCI read about the man show in Female Chauvinist Pigs (a feminist book I read in college) & the author talks all about it. I definitely recommend the book, it's a fun read & gives a good glimpse of the scene in the early 2000's.

2023-04-30 06:02:53 +0000 UTCI’ve always gotten horrible terrible awful creeped out vibes from Jimmy kimmel lol. I was shocked that he wasn’t super right leaning when he first started speaking out, not shocking that he only spoke out when it was something that effected him but whatever. So it wasn’t that shocking to me that he lost a lot of his audience since I’ve always thought of him leaning right and central at most. Fallon might be annoying but he doesn’t give of the smug I’m better than you vibe kimmel does. Also I think his attempt at dry humor is more like boomers dry pork chops instead of dry like a good martini (if that makes sense?) it rarely lands and I’ve found some segments of his show funny in the past but only watched clips for particular guests 🤷🏻♀️ Also it’s crazy that someone who hosts 5 nights a week for over a decade fumbles so badly at awards shows where he has managed to never make a joke or a coherent sentence. Also never knew how he got into hosting because he was just there and didn’t seem to have an acting past like some of the other late nighters. Also David letterman is horrible and if you cover him in an episode it should be also covering Howard stern. Two assholes that get off asking “hard questions” and people still obsess over. Douchey all around! Kimmel is dead behind the eyes and looks like a propped up scarecrow 🦅

2023-04-29 16:38:39 +0000 UTCI was supposed to meet a youtuber at the start of his comedy tour last year. It was canceled after his ex came out about how he treated her when she found out she was pregnant and had a medical emergency. He had an apology tweet but this was after some back and forth about the relationship with his ex. Anyways, Jimmy liked the apology tweet. I had to make sure it wasn't a fake account. You're so famous Jimmy but still gotta show an up and coming male comedian you have their back no matter what??

All the other schools are full of dumbass frat guys that wanted to go to a party school. I’d bet anything Jimmy was a business/comms major 😂

2023-04-28 04:24:37 +0000 UTCI just saw an interview Jimmy did where he said that Matt Damon thing was random one time and not planned he didn’t know him yet and then once Matt Damon responded they made it a thing
