Your Mother Must Be So Proud
Comedian David Cross claims to have snorted coke near the President at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner in May on a dare. Here we have a comedian I’ve never heard of in the room with not just the President of the United States but an historical figure: the first African-American president of the United States. And he snorts blow.
Classy. Real classy.

Well, I can’t believe you haven’t heard of David Cross (Men in Black, Arrested Development, Mr. Show, and…Alvin and the Chipmunks unfortunately), but he’s pretty much a nihilistic hate-everything comedian. I doubt he really snorted cocaine. But anyway, why would you expect a comedian (especially one like him) to be classy?

Yep I’m pretty out of touch and seem to be growing more so day by day. It’s not that I’m sensitive about comedy: I like Lisa Lampinelli and other insult comedians (Don Rickels is still the master though). Nor am I a fan of the President himself.
But to be at such a function and do something completely stupid like that… I just find it incredibly dumb.
