This makes me long for the days when people could make a joke about anything and absolutely nobody was stupid enough to get offended by it. There used to be a common understanding of how human communication works, and everyone just naturally understood what was being communicated when somebody makes a joke. There was no confusion about when something might be offensive or not. They understood how humor works and what purpose it serves. It was a kind of common understanding and common sense. Nobody had the deep need to feel perpetually offended like they do now. People didn't feel the need to act victimized every time someone opens their mouth.

Blame yourselves for having raised traumatized children, that became sensitive adults! This is the science: “ “The sustained qualities of children's emotional experiences during the first 2 years of life have a decisive influence on the way they feel, and hence on how they behave, for the rest of their lives … the developmental/epigenetic effects of early social affective experiences probably influence many higher as well as lower brain functions.” (Jaak Panksepp, Affective Neuroscience) Also, your generations of unavailable parents cause illness: “Relationship of childhood abuse and household dysfunction to many of the leading causes of death in adults. The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study V J Felitti et al. Am J Prev Med. 1998 May.” “The number of categories of adverse childhood exposures showed a graded relationship to the presence of adult diseases including ischemic heart disease, cancer, chronic lung disease, skeletal fractures, and liver disease. The seven categories of adverse childhood experiences were strongly interrelated and persons with multiple categories of childhood exposure were likely to have multiple health risk factors later in life. “

Thank you for this! I don't see the part of the video from which the picture in the thumbnail is from. I'm looking for it. It seems to be the one about "pounding meat" but I can't find it.

So very well said! And I'm old enough to remember these times & when it seemed to change so dramatically. Now to the Woke & PC's of this era, game shows like Holllywood Squares & sitcoms like Sanford & Son, which had the black/white humor amped up for laughter & a sense of truth in our styles & how we interrelated, would be demonized by them

Guests on talk shows are interviewed before taping and the host including Johnny Carson has notes to direct the interview. Besides that on his Tonight Show appearance Paul declares he's a script man. Additionally the Hollywood Squares credits state the Stars are given answers ahead of time. Finally articles plus Peter Marshalls book State explicitly Paul Lynde's quips were written. But fear not I promise even knowing now that he wasn't the inventor of the lines You'll still laugh because of his trademark delivery and the lines are outrageous.

He was incredibly smart and witty. He was also a total asshole. He was mean, petty, and a bit sadistic. He, reportedly, would skewer anyone in a second. He didn't seem to appreciate those who might have been his loyal friends. A bitter, angry, man. Still, one in a million!

@Paul Beebe, I hear ya Paul..!!! What makes it so questionable is the fact that everybody who knew him ~ particularly on the set reported that every one of his lines are written FOR him, prior to the show. Well that's odd. 'Cause WHY would PAUL LYNDE need ghost writers? After all, he's PAUL LYNDE !!! Who is well compensated just for being 'PAUL LYNDE.' Not to mention he seems to be quite surprised by what comes out of his very OWN mouth covering his face with his hands a lot of the time. And there was another legend of comedy (can't remember his name at the moment) who mentioned to the host of HOLLYWOOD SQUARES that some of the answers he saves for himself, intending to put his own twist on the answer in which the Host replied, "I KNOW you do.." HILARIOUS! excuse me, Paul..!!! Probably NOT the way it's spelled but... it sounds like Borg nine and he is quite hilarious. NOT the one I was talking about. Although I don't remember this particular Comedy Legend's name at the moment. But that's okay. I'll just scroll back a couple times and find him. So Paul, how long have you been a fan of LYNDE? I mean HOLLYWOOD SQUARES was most popular in the mid to late '70s. I was very shocked and saddened to hear of his death. As a matter of fact, I STILL recall the very moment I heard LYNDE had passed. He wasn't even that old, really. But then again, he didn't die of old age or by natural causes. He died of a drug overdose. Paul, what I really wanted to bring up was the fact that even his best friends say that he had one hell of a mean streak...but you know what Paul? How many stars are stars because of their mean streaks? A lot. Take a look at SIMON COWELL for instance. Now he's got quite the mean streak yet he never seems to be remorseful and/or at the very least ~ embarrassed by what he allows to spew out of his mouth. Then there's RODNEY DANGERFIELD, who I didn't care for at all. And he was an AWFUL father to his children. I know that because my sister dated his son who is his spitting image. (Is that what it's called ?) My sister said that everywhere they go, he has people rolling on the floor. Naturally, DANGERFIELD is not his real name. His real name was COWEN. My sister has remained one of his very best friends for several DECADES now. ANYWAYS Paul, here's one of my PAUL LYNDE favorites HOST: 1) "When a man falls out of a boat, they yell MAN OVERBOARD..!!! What do they yell when a woman falls out of a boat..?" LYNDE: "FULL SPEED AHEAD..!!!!" 2)AND: HOST ~ "Paul, you are a SINNER. Did you know that you're a sinner, Paul..?" LYNDE: "As long as they spell my name right..." @Paul Beebe, I hear ya Paul..!!! What makes it so questionable is the fact that everybody who knew him ~ particularly on set reported that every one of his lines are written for him, prior to the show. Well that's odd.

He was doing whippets with a young man who took off on Paul. At least, that was the rumour at the time. They would inhale the stuff inside the little silver things you put in your whip cream dispenser. They would get high from them, it enhanced they things they were doing together. He was found the next morning. Extremely sad that the person didn't or couldn't help him instead of running away. 55 is so young. He had so much to give, but maybe he was in too much emotional pain to continue ? He was getting more and more nasty as time went by. Hope you're having a ball in heaven, Paul. Can't wait to meet you.
