My enthusiam for Curb Your Enthusiasm has been curbed Tom Smith

Pretty obnoxious.  It's still the anti-Semitism of the intellectuals, and even the not very intellectual, I see. And no, I never was a Curb Your Enthusiasm fan.  And no, he's not going to do anything Muslims might find equally offensive, because then he would have to worry about his car blowing up.  If you really want to be classy, you should only pick on those you know won't really hit back.  Still, I was thinking of cancelling my subscription to HBO anyway, what with Netflix and the coupon I just got for Cinemax, so now I think I will look into it.

You do know that Cinemax and HBO are both Home Box Office, Inc., brands, right?

If you watched his show, you would realize that he "picks" on everybody, including himself. Lighten up Tom.

One commenter says "Pissing on an image of Christ is blasphemous to Christians". He's wrong, isn't he? It's loutish, of course, and intended to offend, but it's not blasphemy, surely? "Obnoxious" seems about right.

I didn't know Cinemax was HBO. Oh well. He picks on everybody, but there's no way he would do something similar to an image of the Prophet because he would be too scared.

The very point here is that he does NOT pick on everyone, at least certainly not at the same level of offensiveness.

When we see a Koran desecrated on the show, or perhaps shabby treatment of an image of Muhhamed, THEN we can say that he picks on everybody (and he won't do that).
