Ellen DeGeneres Sued Over Hilarious 'T*tty' Joke

On what basis are they calling this “joke” “hilarious” ? I think this is key.

In a former life I sang in a gospel trio. One old man liked us so much he made a request that we sing at his funeral when he passed.

When the time came, it all went so well we thought about going pro, and specializing in singing at funerals. We even considered calling our group “The Deadbeats”.
(Snicker-snort)!

I hope she wins.

"Mispronunciation of name" isn't a recognized tort.

There was a hot dog place in my town called 'Gay Dan's'. This was back in the day, so no one gave it a second thought.

Sometime in the mid-70s, the name was changed to 'Dan's Hot Dog Stand' or somesuch.

I swear I'm not making this up. They're a subsidiary of the German based Schaeffler Group. They were based in Stamford, CT for many years, now in Joplin, MO

Both/and, both?

Any relation to Heywood Jablome? ;)

[Bullish]

Yup, my schoolmate was of German decent and claimed it was pronounced ‘fog’ which I have no doubt is correct... In Germany, lol.

You could count the people who pronounced it ‘fog’ on less than 1 finger. Fag stuck to him like glue.

This is a real titi, a South American monkey.

[Salamander]

I see what you did there.

LOL

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Ellen assumed -- as we would -- it was pronounced "titty,"

Why would you assume that?

Would you also assume Tito was pronounced Te-toy? Or how about Tit-Oy?

Really Ellen?

I presume you had phonics in grade school.

Or am I mistaken in believing that at least a few people who work on that dreadful waste of space you call a "show" are educated to the sixth grade level?

The UCLA research library has an enormous bronze bas relief profile on the ground floor for the man to whom they dedicated the building.

Hugh G. Dick.

How is “tee tee” and better than “titty?” IMHO either one is potentially embarrassing.

My grandfather used the first pronunciation to describe what kids do in swimming pools.

If I had been hung with that name, I think I would have just stuck with one syllable, “Tie.”

[Two Kids' Dad]

Didn’t Mike used to date that girl Ivana Boughner?

[Tennessee Nana]

Tee Tee ...that’s worse..

slang for doing a pee...

“I’ve got to Tee Tee”

[FredZarguna]

He took off with Amanda Holdmee.

Shades of Les Nessman and “Chy Chy Rodrigweeze.”

Performance and comfort. So there.
