Gervais Strikes Again

Did Hollywood not learn the other night during the Golden Globes that Ricky Gervais does not give a damn what they think? He gave the most epic monologue known to man. No one was safe and nothing was off limits and it was not only spot on and brilliant but funny AF!

The last week has brought some criticism his way and I’m sure it was to be expected. But true to form, Gervais still doesn’t care what the Hollywood elite nor reporters think and blasted out this tweet in response:

1. Simply pointing out whether someone is left or right wing isn't winning the argument.
2. If a joke is good enough, it can be enjoyed by anyone.
3. It's not all about you.
4. Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.

Seems to me that anyone who was offended by Gevais is suffering from a guilty conscience. Sometimes, the truth hurts. Bravo Mr. Gervais for throwing down the gloves and telling it like it is.
