      @@purplefireweed I wasn't "mashing up diagnoses", I simply didn't remember what she had said precisely, so I made a general statement that was not untrue. and you didn't "simply add a fact to my comment", you quoted part of my comment in an attempt to chastize me for what I said. To that I took offense. And for you to project what Taylor would or wouldn't make fun of someone for is assumption on your part 100%.

      Mr. Colbert's values? Really? What values would those be? Oh.....maybe it was that "comedy" skit with him and Hillary Clinton "joking" about eating human baby meat sandwiches at the Carnegie Deli! That's right! Or maybe it was that time he was running amok on stage with a real, crying, scared baby in his arms screaming to the "voice of the d 3v i l" coming from the smoke to sacrifice the baby, not him. Must be those values! ;) ;) ;) Got it!
      Colbert being involved in this is such a massive disappointment. Not many late night show hosts openly reveal what they really are. Kimmel does. Colbert does. But people buy into the masks they wear on stage. Which obviously work. Taylor is way, way too good to ever be associated with this guy. Whatever he really is. I just hope it doesn't mean she too has "gone to the dark side." Hope she can stay a real person.

    She's very experienced for her age and seems ready (as one can be) for the next big step. I'd be interested to see how she is as an interviewer. Her crowd work during her standup is pretty solid, which suggests that she's not uncomfortable sharing the stage. It's tricky with standup comedians because the skills for standup don't necessarily always translate to talk shows. Stephen came from an acting background, Conan was a brilliant writer even if he was unknown to audiences, Jimmy Fallon was a sketch comedian who had done some standup in his early years and Jimmy Kimmel got his start as a morning radio shock jock in Arizona and California before getting into acting. There's no one path to late-night hosting, so we'll see. Wish her well.
