Makes you a racist. Ugh, so pathetic" just makes me laugh. You can almost hear the look of defeat when they talk, or read how exhausted and over it they are in their text online. It's fantastically entertaining. Seems to be it turns out having to constantly fight for your right to be a dickhead and an offensive ass to everyone to the point where they and society as a whole decide to shun you can be a tiring exercise.

Basically, Tim Allen's problem is what he says makes people feel bad and that shouldn't matter because he wants to be able to say it, so they should either NOT feel bad or they shut the fuck up about feeling bad so he can not feel bad about it.
