Martin Freeman Continues to be Unfunny- Jokingly Calls Lucy Liu a Dog.



source

He also talks a bit about Sherlock starting filming in March and reshoots for The Hobbit. Idk idk. Martin needs to actually be funny if he's going to make jokes. Calling Lucy Liu a dog is not funny, as jokingly as he might have intended it to be. He just comes off as passive aggressively bitter when he does stuff like this or the joking walking off stage at the mention of Elementary thing he did a while back.

calling somebody a dog is racist now

wtf is this comment? what kind of bubble do you live in? POC have been called animals for years as a way of putting them down.

.....yes?

Yes, "dog" and other variations of it are used as racial slurs against Asian people. Martin Freeman also has a history of thinking Muslims are terrorists, and has charmingly used the word "poofs" to describe gay people (while badgering them to come out of the closet), and has also lamented not being able to say the n-word whilst repeatedly saying the n-word himself.

Did you ask that question in actual ignorance or are you sarcastically using a rhetorical question to try and prove a point (and failing)?

calling somebody a dog is racist now?

I've been seeing ads for Elementary lately. Wasn't sure whether it was gonna be shown on Australian tv so looking forward to that.

And Martin is clearly mad he could never grow a haircape as majestic as Lucy's.

Oh wow, not surprised about the OP of this post. She hates on everything related to Sherlock. She's basically responsible for 50% of the Sherlock hate posts on here.

I can't believe someone can still be so butthurt over Benedict Cumbersnatch making negative comments about Downton. She's been practically frothing at the mouth since he made those comments.

I wonder if she actually likes Elementary or if her love for it was simply born out of her hatred for Sherlock?

Any input OP?

yes, she was born to hate all white men bc she's the chosen, she alone will wield the strength and skill to fight white men, martin fartman, and the forces of other darkness; to stop the spread of their ways, and the swell of their number.

I love this comment.

GORL, I think you might have been confused with someone else.

This is the only post I've made about Sherlock... I think. Idk. I might have made one a few months ago?? I don't remember. I certainly am not "responsible for 50% of the Sherlock hate posts".

I wasn't even going to make this one until bexclare mentioned on tumblr that she was waiting for someone to make a post. So I took it upon myself to make it since no one else had and it was gonna happen eventually.

And I DO enjoy Elementary, but thanks for asking! I love Joan and Sherlock's relationship and it's the only procedural out there that holds my attention nowadays. I appreciate the concern for my TV viewing experience though!

lol wtf are you talking about? i have never seen fauxkaren make another sherlock post.
klmnumbers 11th-Dec-2012 03:25 am (UTC)
lol what. fauxkaren mostly posts about Catelyn in GOT and Lady Mary in DA posts. Are you confusing her with someone else?

It was deadpan sarcasm/ compliment disguised as an insult. He's made similar jokes about Jude Law as Watson.

Even if you think the joke fell flat, I don't really see why everyone's going berserk.
bloolikejazz 11th-Dec-2012 03:06 am (UTC)
the only offensive part here is that he actually thought this joke would be funny. but continue reaching ontd it's far more amusing this way.
wingslapped 11th-Dec-2012 03:10 am (UTC)
So glad I quit stanning for him.

i just can't get over what a bad joke with such bad, awkward delivery it was.

he's seriously just continually reducing my interest in seeing the hobbit. it's a shame because i used to be a total lotr stan.

I wish someone else was playing Bilbo

jfc no amount of popcorn gifs can recreate the enjoyment I am getting out of this post.
fauxkaren 11th-Dec-2012 03:32 am (UTC)
I thought I was in for a boring evening tonight. But this post has provided me SO much entertainment.
generalstolas 11th-Dec-2012 03:33 am (UTC)
Seriously, fuck studying for my finals. I need to break out the alcohol.
mari_mari 11th-Dec-2012 03:40 am (UTC)
Don't worry, eventually you'll calm down and realize it's just you freaking. But you're arguing that he's disgusting because his joke fell flat? It must be a scary world you live in, where everyone and everything around you is disgusting.
expromqueen 11th-Dec-2012 03:43 am (UTC)
maybe they think he's disgusting for a variety of reasons?
whalewars 11th-Dec-2012 04:05 am (UTC)
No one, literally no a single person, is arguing that he's disgusting because his joke fell flat. They're factually stating that he's disgusting because he's racist.
mari_mari 11th-Dec-2012 04:38 am (UTC)
Ha, um, go read the thread. Illiteracy is boring.
expromqueen 11th-Dec-2012 03:42 am (UTC)
even if you're not offended by what he said in this vid, if you still want to defend him after all the effed up racist stuff he's said, then sry, ur a lost cause. he's the reason i will pirate the hobbit instead of paying for it (bummer, too, i would have liked to see it imax)
executivehpfan 11th-Dec-2012 04:00 am (UTC)
THIS was a fun post to come home to. lol Oh ONTD, never change.
love_allure 11th-Dec-2012 04:19 am (UTC)
all in all the guy doesn't do himself favors to win over new fans that's for sure. also he's only 41 but damn i thought you were over 50 bilbo i'm sorry.
