..... but i want to reply anyway, 'sides Bizi posted the video anyway
that's an interesting thought. often something comic is indeed at the expense of someone or something. not always though, is the "expense" a serious one. someone might trip over and look silly, but might not hurt themselves. or they might land in hospital and it could still be staged as funny (i give you the Pink Panther series of films and the misadventures of Dreyfus at the hands of Clouseau). ridicule or not i myself could hardly "contain" myself at those torturous scenes... pun fully intended.

BUT that was FICTION. An aging man with... guessing here... incontinence issues.... publicly ridiculed by the press... that to me is different. it is not comedy. it is only ridicule. (in my opinionated opinion).

maybe i'm confused. i don't know how the "tinkle" happened. if the dude pulled his fly with a grin and "aimlessly" whizzed in the aircraft aisle, then he had this coming, he was the Protagonist and Prima Donna and could ask for nothing better than what he got.
