Talk:Michael Ian Black

message: I'm a fair guy, all the way around, but why is this guy doing commentary on "I Love the 70s" when, according to your own article, he was born in 1971? His commentaries include the years 1970, 1971, and 1972. He goes into great detail commenting on events that occurred during these years. Well, forgive me, but how the hell does he know what was going on the year before he was born, the year he was born, and the year he celebrated his first birthday? Maybe he has read about them and watched retro clips, but that hardly explains how he relates events of those years as if he was an active participant! I was born in 1960, and could give a fairly accurate analysis of certain events in the late 60s, but I would have to pass on comments regarding the Nixon/Kennedy debates, the Bay of pigs, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the Kennedy Assassination being as how I was still in diapers (cloth ones) in those days, and hardly qualify to give my opinion. Get serious, VH1!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ribberboy (talk • contribs) 21:34, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

message: He has a fake feud with David Sedaris that is chronicalled (sic) on his website.  It is noteworthy and should be included on his page.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.125.11.58 (talk) 21:53, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

message: I couldn't find a source on this, is it verifiable.  Also, why is it not linked to Billy Corgan's wikipedia site?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.199.92.246 (talk) 01:59, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Although the reference to the ShowAlter (re: Chicken Cheeks) is primarily comedic, it appears to be an honest account of the author's own opinion of his work. Hence the link has been included.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.96.116.125 (talk) 08:59, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

message: I have removed the statement about his supposed NFL career. There are no other sources for this other than his Twitter, where it's clearly a joke. https://twitter.com/michaelianblack/status/992350575391137792 Radiant chains (talk) 12:32, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

message: I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section:
* Cite templates will be used where possible.
* I prefer capitalization and punctuation to follow the standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, rather than "title case".
* Links to potentially unreliable digitised copies may be removed. 
This is a work in progress; feel free to continue. Sunwin1960 (talk) 10:13, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
