That's funny, because what Leno did to Conan could be classified as a terrorist act. He used NBC's fear to wrench Conan's dream job away from him. All that was missing was a bomb vest strapped to his chin.

Jay Leno? Is he still on?

That joke would have been so much funnier if Jay Leno's audience knew what Facebook was. Or understood how to get onto the internet.

Well, I'd definitely show it.

He still makes Danny Bonaduce jokes?

And in this context, the term "jokes" is very VERY lenient.

A classless joke? An attack? Something we should be offended by?

Please. I don't mind the frequent Conan updates because I enjoy Conan and pop culture in general, but do we really need to be aghast over a Jay Leno monologue joke? It's just a joke, and a lame one at that. If you want to point out pathetic Jay Leno material I suggest Twitter as a better forum.

This is supposed to be scathing reviews for bitchy people. We are supposed to be edgy and irreverent, hip and young and not constrained by outdated social mores. Are you really suggesting that Jay fucking Leno went too far with that joke? "Hey man, that's not cool Jay Leno. You can't make jokes implying that terrorists are Conan fans and that that reflects somehow negatively on Conan. That's really going too far."

Hell, I actually wish Jay would do more to take on Conan. I mean, if he is going to be totally unscrupulous behind the scenes and get the man fired the least he can do is address it publicly and own that shit. Give us some late night wars with teeth. His "aw shucks, yeah, let's move on" routine is what I find really offensive.

If you're going to dish it out, learn to take it. Rise above it. Just don't whine about someone else making a joke about one of your sacred cows.

Yossarian, I'm so with you. We should be more outraged that his jokes aren't funny.
Complaining about this "attack" is as pointless as complaining about David Letterman's "attack" on Sarah Palin's youngest daughter.
If Conan did it, we'd all find it HILARIOUS.

Taking shots at Jay is easy. It doesn't require thought, wit, or balls. You're better than this, Paj.

Fake outrage is the cornerstone of democracy. Take away our fake outrage and what are we left with? $200 sneakers and KFC double downs. I can't live like that!

ZOMG, Dustin, you are on FIAH! Between this, the I Spit On Your Grave post, the "quit bitchin' about our ads"....

Way to take charge, man!

I dunno, I read it as self-depricating; like, "Even terrorists think Jay is an asshole".

Reach for the stars, Jay. Some day you'll make it to the top, and then you can dump on everyone whose better than you that didn't make it.

If someone made a movie "I spit on Jay Leno's grave and Jay Leno"- I would camp out overnight to buy 3D tickets, and I would pray that Ray J and Kim Kardasian were cast in the movie and that "spit" was a euphemism for urine.

I wasn't going to comment since everyone else here was doing a fine jib-a-jab job of calling this deucebag out, and frankly I have been reserving my "this moron should be canned" energy for that mentally deficient harpy, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, but then I saw someone saying "have a little fun". so yea I decided to play.

What amazes me is that there was anyone watching this ridiculously bland show who was young enough to stay awake that late and/or not too senile to even remember what he said.

What a wonderful idea. I am not totally sure if that is true, but who knows. Would you be kind enough to write another post, but from the opposing vantage point.

I apologise for not being so serious today I read this and though:

If you can’t learn to do it well, learn to enjoy doing it badly.
