Funny you should say that because I haven't or try really hard not to make fun of someone when they are sick. Physically or mentally. I would never be intentionally cruel. That's not how I was raised thank you. And yes, I more often than not take the high road or make a joke at my own expense.

I'm not saying that Joan Rivers shouldn't keep doing her schtick. I am saying that the fact that Angelina is under doctors care for a breakdown, or exhaustion or whatever the case may be, anyone under those circumstances should be left alone. I suffered from Post partum and wouldn't have wanted anyone to make fun of me at all and those around me that thought it was wrong stuck up for me. So if it was a joe schmoe down the street, I would say the same thing. If they are sick leave them alone.

Right, Joan has no new material. She just changes the names in her routine to currently popular celebrities. She is mean to everyone. Why should Angelina be spared? Are mothers now off limits. Or mothers who have a certain number of kids or have given birth within a specific period of time.

As for being cruel, gee, you famecrawler people always take the high road, don't you? No cruel jokes or ugly name calling here.

Calling her a bad mother or making fun of her kids would have been cruel. Making stupid jokes about her being a stupid girl isn't cruel. It isn't funny, but hardly worse than anything I read here.

She has been making jokes like this for 30 years everyone. These are not new jokes. I think she first told these in her stand up routine in the 60's with different actors as the punchlines. Are you people 14 or live in a cave somewhere?

Well, Joan is stunningly ugly, and also stupid.
