    Yup. They thought she could make money for them. They didn't mind that she did all of the things that you listed.

    But what on earth do you mean by saying that they thought they could handle her behavior in the world or at home in the middle of the night? Did she have handlers from ABC?

    But you're right about them thinking that all would be well so long as no one decided to look at them as opportunists willing to associate themselves with someone who called a Holocaust survivor a Nazi, and Susan Rice a man with big swinging ape balls, and Huma Abedin a Jew hater and a filthy Nazi whore. Yup, no one thought any less of them for hiring the woman who said all of those things and more.

    Wow. You're so focused on Roseanne that you were blind to my joke alert that preceded my . . . joke.

    You can only call Roseanne a gay wedding cake if you're a lesbian or bisexual.

    When does a wedding cake realize it's gay?

    Why are you so afraid of words?

    And why the fuck do you know so much about Roseanne? Jesus fuck.

    Jesus fuck? I believe you meant Jesus Christ. You must have just taken up swearing. Don't worry, you'll get better the more you do it.

    Why do you say that I'm afraid of words?

    And everything I learned about Roseanne I learned from MeAgain. So you might want to shift your focus and get on his ass.

    Also, why do you use the word "fuck" so much? You remind me of someone.

    You seem concerned with what Roseanne has to say.

    I say "fuck" because I take you super-duper Sheldon Cooper seriously.

    I don't disagree with them firing her. I also don't find what she said offensive. It's simple, she said something the network didn't agree with so they pulled it.

    No, I'm not concerned with what Roseanne has to say.

    Super duper Sheldon Cooper seriously? If that makes sense to you, then that's all that matters. And if that's brings out the fuck in you, I'm not here to judge you for it.

    It's ok. I'm actually Roseanne and I forgive you.

    Now I'm John Goodman. "Hey, Storch. You leave my fictional TV wife out of this or I'll come over there and kic..k...kghhhhpeniskghkghk ksdkkskdfkh kghhk kk h HeArT aTtaccckkkk....."....... :dizzy::dizzy::dizzy:

    EDIT: Before you say that was offensive, I love John Goodman and will probably shed a tear when that heart attack inevitably happens.

    Let's vote which celebrity will make an idiotic but perhaps hilarious tweet next, and everyone will forget about roseanne..

    Too bad it wasn't funny. That's often what makes something offensive ok.

    There was also an episode about how she and Jackie were abused so she would never spank her kids, then in the new season she bleated the oft repeated line amongst people of her political persuasion that the problem with kids today is they arent spanked. Shrug. She's just a typical hypocrite

    Oh, I saw it.
    I said I got it.
    You make a joke to make your point.
    "I was only joking!"

    Didn't you read my list?
    Yes there were people at ABC that tried to reign (Should be rein) Barr in both on the job and at home.

    Sure they were opportunists, that's how they make money...ya know the free market.
    The free market and society was fine with her for awhile, so they made money.
    Then society turned on her and the free market spoke.
