Now, I wasn't offended by the skit. It amused me because I always did think that the murder mystery game was weird. My only complaint about the skit was that it dragged on a bit too long (like many of the skits in the movie) and lost much of it's beginning humor.

YES!

Yes. Suffice it to say I was less than amused with many of the skits - very Monty Python'ny with the way they just KEPT GOING after it ceased being funny.

Except the white negro skit. That was hilarious.

Whole heartedly agree. Good jokes can be killed by too long a duration.

Are you implying that someone that you love has a habit of running jokes into the ground? Look, I'm all for beating a dead horse, you gotta make sure it can't come back to life as a zombie horse, you know? If you beat it enough, even if it comes back as a zombie it won't have legs to chase you or a mouth to bite you.

On a more serious note, I agree with you on the topic of people faking bad things to get attention... it's really an awful thing to do. It's one thing for a chawbacon yokel to pretend that he's street, (East Siiiide!) but that type of behavior is a whole other kind of low.
