You have laughed at things that are plainly hurtful to others. They aren't funny McGee. It isn't funny to find humor at older peoples eventual lot in life; needing care to go to the bathroom, be turned in bed.

Archie Bunker made people laugh but also taught them to see things through some clever situational sarcasm. He was clearly the most extreme case of ignorance to be found, and we all knew someone like him. That is why it was funny. We knew better.

why was archie bunker funny - Bing video
