I guess I should've mentioned that the party was full of media and showbiz types, and let me tell you, showbiz people aren't exactly the most politically correct bunch. Believe me, they have heard and seen it all! ;-) The gentleman in question (the brother of a very well known English actress...but I digress) never said anything that could be construed as sexist or even sexually offensive (at least, not that I was aware of), however he did make a comment about showbiz people being "airheads" and Americans being "ass-kissers" (which probally was the loaded gun that sealed his fate ;-)). But hey, it's a PARTY!!! Why take things so seriously? But like I said, the men were able to roll with the punches, while the women eyed him with contempt. Anyway, the guy provided a few chuckles...if you were one of the fortunate few who understood his humor.
"Keeping a straight face is part of the whole thing, guys.....it's called deadpan humour. You are testing the comprehension and mental agility of your audience."
Damian, Right on!
