TIL that nobody here knows the difference between Rosie O’Donnell and Roseanne Barr.
Jesus Christ people
New to Lemmy?
i never liked her. rosie o’donnell became the white oprah in the late 90s. she was the antidote to all the trashy daytime talk shows that saturated the airwaves at the time. she was pure and whole some. but there was a darkness underneath her everywoman, standup comedian charm.
she spoke the language of fearful, boring, white suburban moms; these were the type of moms who cut off their children if they were gay or smoked a doobie. she was never really funny or charming unless you spent a lot of time at the applebee’s happy hours and giggled when your male co-worker referenced the macarena in a lame joke that was 3 or 4 years out of fashion, but she could fool you.
her rise to fame and fortune is uniquely american in a very bad way. she doesn’t deserve celebration, only ridicule. lots of people dislike trump, at least 80% of the internet does.
Yeah, she always been disingenuous and obnoxious. Best I can say about her is at least she’s not Ellen DeGeneres - she’s got a notorious reputation in LA for being a horrible bitch.
These two should’ve duked it out on the lawn for the UFC event. I would’ve watched that.
Oh, Rosie would’ve won against President Bone Spurs. He’s a standard bully, and he’d crumple like a stack of cards.
I became aware of Rosie in the 2000’s from the legendary rap battle video, between Eli Porter and Envy - " yo i’ma let you know who da best by the hour, you’re like Rosie O’Donnell in a bisexual bridal shower ". - bars
Republicans brought back fascism. Don’t let them claim otherwise once Trump croaks.
Only just realizing Rosanne Barr and Rosie O’Donnell are different people…
I’m not much a fan of either, but I really despise the one of them (Rosanne)
Wow I had the exact same mix-up.
She’s not my favorite, but she really got taken for a ride back then. They smeared the hell out of her for speaking out.
Didn’t she compare black people to apes, and then claim it wasn’t racist, just political?
Edit: Nevermind, that was Roseanne Barr. Rosie O’Donnell is the good Rosie.
Ok now i get it, that’s why I confuse the two.
Thank you for reminding me, I had the same thought.
“I love gay men. Without them, us fat chicks would have nobody to dance with.” -Roseanne Barr
Her descent into right-wingity was really tragic. Roseanne was one of the few series to genuinely show what life for working-class people is really like.
oh wow I’ve been conflating these two for years!
She has to call him both “pedophile” and “rapist” before I board.
Pretty sure anti vaxxers brought back measles but I’m not against blaming trump for everything
Anti vaxxersv aren’t supposed to run the government or anything for that fucking matter.
We should stop them because their opinion is dog shit and harmful.
him putting a quack into the highest medical office surely counts for something at least
Anti vaxxers have been doing this crap for a while they don’t care whose in charge of highest medical office
Promoted ignorance for so long give birth to anti vaxxers, flat eathers and many types of wackos.
'Murica is the epicentre of it, but the whole world has to deal with the dribbling stupidity
Didn’t trump suggest to drink bleach and get a UV light internally somehow? That man is balls deep in antivaxx lore
and to think kathy griffins career got cancelled just by showing a faux severed head of trump.
Solid joke, Rosie’s still got it
Did she merge with Bannon?
You can tell he’s actively shitting his pants in the thumbnail
I’m glad she’s comparing herself to fascism and the measles, it says a lot about where she stands.
I’m glad you made this comment. It allows me to know how to tag you in my Lemmy client. I don’t like to block people unless they give me little choice, but I do like to know when I’m likely wasting my time talking to certain types.
Reading comprehension and simple logic at all time lows.
This is Rosie O’Donnell, not Roseanne Barr.
As somebody that MAGA lumps under the name “lib,” am I supposed to feel “owned” by this comment? As the pedophile-hater here, I’m not feeling it.
