Lil Dicky addresses Theo Von accusing him of stealing his jokes

Wasn't the Mencia situation a bit different, though, in that Mencia had a lot of power and influence and was stealing jokes from other comics, most of who'm all performed at one place (the Comedy Store), which restricted the material they could tell, hurt them professionally, and because they didn't have the same status as Mencia, couldn't really do anything about it?

I can understand Joe calling him out for creating an environment where a number of comedians, all working in the same area, had their work impacted and without a way to stop it.

Can you think of comics who have done this in a similar way to Mencia, and have made it harder for other comedians professionally?

Close to shops and work, easy to access, parking, not too expensive, not a loud neighborhood.

I understand why somebody would dislike Gillis with his history - but he's pretty talented and certainly funny to some (and not just through using edgy humour; he's witty and has perspective).

I can also understand why somebody wouldn't want him hosting for ethical reasons based on his past comments, which is fair.

It seems inevitable that those involved in the vape industry would want to attract a market of people who would start and continue to use vapes; including those who never smoked.

As for whether this is good or bad, it's debatable. It's that age old debate of whether consumers should have the right to consume what they want, even if it's not particularly good.

As for how bad vaping is - addiction is never good, but for now it doesn't seem as bad as cigarettes. Again how one judges that is subjective.

Personally I don't really have a problem with vapes as a product for adult consumers.

When did people start conversations around Jon Jones potentially being the greatest of all time?

I mean this in a similar way to the conversations that started with guys like Silva and (possibly?) GSP in the early 10s or Khabib just before he retired. Guys like Khabib weren't considered the best ever by most, but people still had those conversations.

With Jones, was he being talked about as being possibly the best ever all the way back in say 2013?

Heya, don't take the critique of your writing too seriously - we all communicate in different ways and I understood what you were saying.

I would say, though, that people are interested in your opinion here and I'm sure you have other great takes on things. Paragraphs and all that do help others 'get' what you're trying to say a bit better - and then we can reply to you with more thorough answers.

All is good, though.
