Keep Kathy Griffin in line by suggesting a joke
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Controversial comedian Kathy Griffin is a coming to the Fox on July 11. She notoriously joked about her 2007 Emmy award and offended many people in the process.
Let’s help her in her visit to St. Louis.
High Schools? Toasted Ravioli? What’s off limits in Arch City? Suggest a one-line joke about St. Louis for an upcoming issue of Bird’s Eye View, seen on Sunday in the Community section. We’ll print our favorites — if they don’t cross the line.

While I don’t find her schtick of channeling Don Rickles very funny, I do have to admit I can’t understand how such a “plain” girl is so sexy and appealing.

She’s a talentless hack and really quite pathetic in every facet of life.
Q: How many Missouri Republicans does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: None, they only screw the poor.
Q: How many St. Louis Aldermen does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: What does my ward get out of changing this?
Kathy Griffin is hilarious. She doesn’t need any ideas on what is funny. If you’re easily offended or feel the need to protect some of the celebrities she jokes about, don’t listen - or lighten up.
Q: What’s the difference between a Clayton lawyer and an angry rhinoceros?

Nothing is off limits. I loved her joke at the Emmy’s. If you don’t like her don’t go. She is very funny. I am not saying you are crazy if you don’t like her. If we all like Coke there would be no Pepsi.
Here’s a thought, if you find her humor offensive or just not funny, don’t attend the show!
How about “what the EFF is up with allergies in this city? I haven’t seen a mold count this high since Courtney Love’s Ob/Gyn took a pap smear.”
Here’s one for Tom…
