Now here is a legendary comedic voice that we’ve been dying to hear react to Adam Carolla‘s most recent misogynistic outburst.
Roseanne Barr was one of the biggest sitcom stars EVER, so we think she would know a thing or two about womens’ ability to write them.
In case you haven’t heard about the controversy, the former Man Show host told sources that women are “always the least funny on the writing staff” of a sitcom. He proceeded to generalize that “the reason why you know more funny dudes than funny chicks is that dudes are funnier than chicks.”
Much like his gay jokes, we don’t think these were that funny either and Mz. Barr agrees. The comedian-turned-presidential candidate took to Twitter on Tuesday to share her opinion and wrote:
actually, a shout out to all funny male comics whom I love:every other guy comic except Adam Carolla
— Roseanne Barr (@TheRealRoseanne) June 19, 2012
To clear the sexism out of the air, Roseanne sensibly wrote that EVERY comic can be funny. Regardless of sex or how big their mouths are (cough, Carolla, cough), she thinks everybody can come up with at least three funny minutes, writing:
I think all comics are funny, even adam carolla-actually-everyone has at least three good minutes-

We’ll agree that Adam Carolla CAN be funny, but he certainly isn’t when he’s talking smack on half of humanity.
Paying women to jump up and down on trampolines in bikinis is one thing. Just plain insulting them without any kind of compensation? That’s a very different line to cross.
