have a world view that has repercussions. That people understand where they're going. And it's gotten so crazy, it's come to a, we can't even interact anymore, because everybody's too sensitive. Too sensitive nowadays, yes. I wanted a Chinese restaurant. I love Chinese food, I love Chinese people, I love China. I'm a China fan. Old culture, they invented things, advocates and gunpowder, good stuff, stuff we need. Wasn't for them our fourth of July's would've been a lot less festive. Let's face it, folks, it would be like a tea. Woo! Okay. I love Chinese food. I love Chinese food, so I went in to get some Chinese food, and I wanted to eat, and I was hungry, you know what they had for me to eat with chopsticks, and that's okay, it's a Chinese restaurant. But I said, you know what, I can't use them, I need a knife and fork and a spoon, and they didn't have any. Now this is where I started getting a little test state. First off, do I look like I should be proficient with chopsticks? No, that's not against anybody, I don't know how to use them, I'm an America. I mean, matter of fact, every other ethnic restaurant I've ever been to has a knife, a fork, and a spoon. Every single one of them, and they've never expected me to be proficient and their culture will hurt it. Never go into an Italian restaurant yet, and they go, here's your spaghetti, but first play the mandolin. Every restaurant always has a knife, a fork and a spoon, you know why? Because we figured out that it's better than sticks. That's why we gave up on sticks a couple thousand years ago. Cutlery is an upgrade, and I was upset, and the manager came over to me all at Dignit. We don't have, so the way we only have chopsticks is we want to be authentic. And I said as a comedian, oh, you want to be authentic. Okay, let me get this straight, Bob. I just walked into a Chinese restaurant in a strip mall in the United States of America. I walked through brushed aluminum doors. I was met by a blonde woman that set me down at a from my table, gave me a plastic laminated menu. I'm about to order a Chinese food cooked by that Mexican guy in the back. And when I finish eating, I'm paying with a credit card, but you think of you throwing chopsticks. Suddenly, I'm propelled into the main dynasty. What the luge, and are you living here? I mean, you're going to have to give me a chance to suspend my disbelief. Why stop at chopsticks? I'm going to need a whole, I reject modern technology, theme day, so I can be prepared. I wake up to the sound of a rooster outside of my window. I look down at the sundial, let's see what time it is. Then, taking my clothes down to the nearest stream, I'll be eating with the rock to get them nice and clean. Then I'll come back in and call a girl and see if she wants to go to a Chinese restaurant, but I won't use a phone. I'll use a telegraph. For better yet, smoke signals. Then, I go pick her up on my best row and share it. And once we get over there to eat, I'm not going to pay with a credit card. I'm going to pay with three hands, a woven blanket, and some beads. And then when we go home, I'm not walking to the door. I'm hitting over the head of the club and dragging her by the hair. Now, when you throw in chopsticks, I get it. Now, I love that joke. I'll tell you why. First off, I love watching the faces. All the people go on, man, you're taking this chopsticks. It's nothing a little too seriously, don't you think? And the answer is yes. I'm taking it way too seriously. That's why it's fine. It's called satire, sarcasm, using a ridiculous scenario to make a finer point. Why do I tell you that? Because I did this show at a chapel at Pepperdine University. And then I was hired to do another show later on down the road. And I was fired. And I called the booker up and said, what happened? Then fired. Why? You did the chopsticks joke. Yes, but if you listen to the chops, it's simply me making fun of the fact I can't use them. And I just figured we should be using silver right now. We're Americans. I'll never forget what the guy said. He said, yes. But you said that silverware was better than chopstick. Now I try to be honest, folks. I'm not perfect. I can make mistakes. My religion demands me to try to always be better and grow. And I thought about it and said, you know what? I don't want to offend people. I did say that silverware was better than chopsticks because it is. Obviously a knife before can a spoon is better than chopsticks. Oh, you're just being ethnic centric. Obviously a knife before can spoon in tandem are better than chopsticks. You're just being bigoted and intolerant and incentive. Oh, for crying out loud. Here's a ball of soup. Here's some chops. Here's a spoon. Let's see who gets to the bottom first. If you like to use chopsticks fine, but if you think that everybody should learn how to use them and you'd understand why I'm so crazy, put a helmet on. See, two kids got out of the show and wouldn't complain. They wouldn't complain. And I got far. I'm not going to tell you the ethnicity of these two kids. But you can pretty much rule out their last name was Rodriguez. And that's okay. I mean, they have the right to do that. But here's why I bring it up. Because after the show, a young black man came up to me and said, thank you for your show. It really made me think. Another guy came up to me and said, I'm a vegan. The most radical form of vegetarian. He said, I thought your animal rights stuff was funny. Another girl came up to me and said, hey, I'm going to start wearing fur now, kind of joking. Another guy said, hey, you should be a libertarian. Another kid came up to me and said, will you come speak at our young Republicans convention? I'm solicited. I had all these different ideologies, cultures, and religions, politics come up to me and tell me, thank you. A black, a vegan, a Republican, a libertarian, a girl. Representing the whole of America. And all the kids that never got to see a show and get to make their own choices. Because two people were offended by something that isn't offensive. I don't call that sensitivity, I'll call it censorship. And so a university that is supposed to be teaching kids all types of thought, even dissenting viewpoints, took the high road and fired me. Shame on you, Pepperdine. I'm not here, my friends, to hurt anybody's feelings. But if you are unable, let me tell you something. You want to truly know if you have an immature character, you can tell by this rule how difficult it is for you to laugh at yourself. That's just a maturity. And if you cannot discern the difference between somebody being malicious towards your ethnicity and somebody finding humor in the differences, put a helmet on! We've got to laugh again. We've got to laugh again because we are different. I'd rather laugh about it than fight about it. You see what you used to be able to. What you used to be able to.
