    One in particular was about how the comedian would be disappointed if his son was gay because he couldn’t take him to the strip club with him.

    The premise could have worked if he switched it around and said that he was going to have to go to gay strip club or Chippendale’s or something instead of being a complaint about not being able to go to his usual clubs. That would have made it supportive and accepting of his son while also highlighting his personal hangups.

      The idea of going to a strip club is repulsive to me, going with my dad is even worse… Wtf kind of joke is that even

        A joke about taking your adult children to a strip club is funny because of how weird it would be. Hart flubbed it by making his son’s sexuality the punchline.

          The original comment was talking about the openers for Kevin Hart, not Kevin Hart himself. So the punchline shouldn’t have been made by Hart or about Hart’s son.

            Oh damn, I must have mixed that up because of Hart’s bits about not wanting to have a gay son.

                And then he put on a dress.

      Yep, I was equally disappointed with the execution.
