Bill O’Reilly’s funny joke
Occasionally a number of random things line up, like tonight at the gym where eight TV’s all had nothing interesting on at once. One of these things was Bill Oreilly’s Self-Aggrandizement Hour. But it did have its moments: Like when Bill was interrupting his guest who was talking about the Academy Awards. O’Reilly said:
“…Well sure, they like Johnny Depp! He smokes marijuana!”
More blather ensued, then a commercial break. Then O’Reilly comes back on and – looking very annoyed – looks right at the camera and in a voice-for-explaining-things-to-a-5-year-old, says:
“You know, that crack about Johnny Depp smoking marijuana … was… a… JOKE, alright? A joke. I was just kidding about that, you know? Some people, just have no sense of humor.”
Well, I have to admit he certainly succeeded in making me laugh. I’m not sure Johnny Depp would find it quite as amusing, though.
