It’s been quite a weekend for has-been Saturday Night Live alum. Rob Schneider tried to let you know he has a new show you won’t watch by lecturing about the importance of empathy in comedy. (Shame we can’t really make out what he has to say with his head shoved so far up his own ass.) And Dennis Miller decided to weigh in on Michelle Wolf’s controversial White House Correspondence Dinner set with a zinger. Well, eventually.
What a horrid human being Michelle Wolf is. I’m going to read up on her over the next couple of days and I will have a few brutally mean jokes about her by Wednesday.

My first thought when I saw this tweet was, “Oh. Dennis Miller’s still alive?” Which is not so much a reflection of his age (64, a fact that took two seconds to Google), but more that he’s been wildly irrelevant for so long that his pretentious schtick can now run for office. Proving his own obsolescence, Miller said he needed three business days to research Wolf before mocking her, because I guess maybe he’s using the Encyclopedia Brittanica print edition or Bing. But don’t worry, he’s got an old stand-by in the warmer:
Everyone knows Hillary Clinton wants back in so badly she can taste it again and again and again. If HRC was half as smart as they insist she is she would come out tomorrow and demand her fellow Liberals quit making fun of Sarah H. Sanders looks. But she won't do that, will she?

Anyway, Miller’s self-righteousness coupled with his inability to craft a timely joke got him dragged on Twitter by plenty of people who had no problem spinning comedy in seconds.
I bet they’ll be meaner than Willa Cather after an absinthe bender with Gavrilo Princip, cha cha. https://t.co/hovKGymFFk

After much research I have irrefutable evidence that Michelle (air quotes) Wolf (dramatic pause) is not even a real wolf!

Right now, Alexa and Siri are quietly whispering to each other “Who is Dennis Miller? Why do people keep asking us that?”

Dennis Miller says out loud the things that other misogynist sociopaths think but are too smart to preview ahead of time. He should talk to a therapist about how his insecurity is getting in the way of his vindictive dreams. pic.twitter.com/EywznFXEz7

Dennis Miller just asked Mike Huckabee for help writing jokes.

I forgot who dennis miller was so i read a bio about him. It was excessively wordy and condescending without any sort of comedy involved.

In these divisive times, it’s heartwarming to see everyone coming together to agree that Dennis Miller sucks.

In response, Miller made the same joke that people had been making about him all day.
I'm working on a comment on me being roasted and I'll have it for you Thursday.
