Train Wrecks
Andy Dick: "I Have Offended a Lot of People"

Andy DickJust hours after TMZ broke the story about Andy Dick's cavalier use of the N word in a comedy club this weekend, the alleged comedian has admitted that he made a huge mistake.

In an apology issued through his publicist, Dick said, "I chose to make a joke about a subject that is not funny. In an attempt to make light of a serious subject, I have offended a lot of people, and I am sorry for my insensitivity. I wish to apologize to Ian, to the club, and its patrons and to anyone who was hurt or offended by my remark."

Andy was heckling comedian Ian Bagg at L.A.'s Improv comedy club Saturday, when he sudddenly got out of his seat and jumped onstage, cracked jokes about Michael Richards, and referred to the crowd by the N word.

33. Dammit, stop apologizing already! The n*ggers get what they want when the white man apologizes for using the word n*gger. He made a joke, if you didn't think it wasn't funny then don't laugh!

34. All this is doing is making people want to say it more. Besides the n-word is from one of my favorite movie lines.

"What is this sh*t I hear about Bruce Leroy catching bullets in his teeth? N*gga please!"

35. MAN LAW #3:
From now on, the use of the phrase "The N word" is forbidden. It give the word N*GGER way to much power and it makes all who use the phrase appear to be doe-eyed-fairy-god-boys! You want to say N*GGER, say N*GGER. It's good for you and its good for our collective freedom of speech rights!

I feel better, how 'bout you?

36. He's such a train wreck anyway. I never understood how he has attained this little level of successful. He's not funny. He is annoying and pathetic.

37. I think a black comic should have a white audience member heckle him and then do the exact thing that Michael Richards did but subistitute cracker. That would be funny:o)

39. The things people do for attention...he should just stick to being Christina Aguilera's cousin (Daphne...I think) Better yet he shouldn't even do that...he wasn't funny then...

40. Neither Richards nor Dick will ever reach the level of Kaufman. They apologize, they are posers.

43. Only people that laugh at Jerry Lewis laugh at this fool anyway. Amazing who people will spend money to see. Watching him on stage is like watching your dog piss.

44. The word has a lot deeper meaning then recent times. many blacks internalize the word and try to make it an empowering thing within one another but when a white perosn uses the word it reflects back to slavery days. Life is hard enough, make a joke out of taxes and everyday hardships and turn that into comedy i don't think theres a need to joke about racism when it's still such a major issue in our society.... both andy and richards should be ashamed

if someones calls a white person a cracker then its easy for us to laugh cause it does not represent any further meaning then being white.... the n word on the other hand represents deeper meaning, including the devastating and murderous centuries of slavery and physical abuse....
