that's why he's not called Triumph the Ass-Kissing Comic Dog

swear to god, with outkast, JT and janet jackson, and now this, how honestly sensitive can we get...?? i'm in no way trying to apologize for this, but really, can't we all just take a joke ever? i mean, we all have things we get picked on about, learn to live with it.

as long as it's not me getting picked on about being a homo pussy...i'm with you 100%
- jpea0
well, i'll lay off...
but just this once

it was all happening not far from where i work (the conan tapings)
only saw some clips of the triumph stuff that everyone is yelling about now (said a lot of nasty things about quebec)
personally, ya have to have a thick skin about stuff like this..
its all just a joke..
but jokes aside, i thought it was weak..
taking potshots at french canadians isn't exactly what i tuned into conan for.
i thought it was a cheap atempt at getting laughs..
some of it was smirk worthy..
the rest was lame.and i can imaging if i were a quebecer, i'd be super fuckin pissed...
- jpea0
what is it that quebec citizens are sensitive about? is it heritage or what kind of gov't they're living in now? i totally am in the dark about it i guess

total BS, Triumph pissed off pretty much anybody and everybody he's ever talked too, and you know, thank god..
I think the world can use a little political incorrectness with all the hyper-sensitivity around right now.
No one ever called Monty Python racist in the seventies, did they.
Bon Jovi didn't freak out
waste of time if you ask me.

For a province that holds the annual Just for Laughs festival i thought they would be able to take a joke for what it's worth and not be so insulted.

the french are worried about losing their culture, so they are very defensive about protecting it.
the separatist movement is basically the french looking to save the language.... kinda silly though, as the canadian government seems to consistently bend over backwards for them, making crazy laws to appease them, and yet they still want to separate.
I have heard even the french from France even say that Quebec is far too french.
- brundlefly0
to tell you the truth the only people I have heard complain are english politicians looking to get some props with the franco community.
The french have always been able to take a joke.
- ignore_me0
damn politicians
- MrDinky0
does this mean that Brundlefly and Meok are .. in to... playing for that team?
- lilbabyleg0
pay it no mind.

bottom line - people need to ease the fuck up..
(coming from somebody who grew up in Quebec City and is
half-French).. then again i hate most Quebecois.. they're assholes... and stupid.. and deserve to be made fun of.
:D
my sister worked with Triumph while he was in Quebec City - and i heard the whole thing was fucking jokes... i love Triumph!

Really people....
He said nothing untrue.
The french are fags and they need to be told this.
That's just the way it is.

I live in america and am constantly the ass-end of jokes on NT and I don't give a fuck.

(feb 17 04) "Now how lame is that, man get a life. You must live on the moon or something, did u even ever come here?
Being smack in the middle of all this, I can pretty much size up pretty easily what this is about. They paid him 700k to have him come here, and he does that crap? That aint worth 700k. Many many many humor shows in either canada or quebec have much better humor than that retard with the big forehead. Anyways on top of that the situation is already delicate and it is not only because of the language issue, there are many things in quebec that are very different inthe rest of the canada, quebec is not like saskatchewan (not that saskatchewan is not cool or anything, just very different.). Anyways I didnt really get offended, me not being a separatist, but they guy must have the lowest IQ ever to say those jokes and not to be able to think of better ones. I dont want to tell him how to do his job, but it appears he aint cut out for it anymore.
anyways ppl around me here mostly dont even know about conan, most ppl dont even care about him. so ..
my 2 cents..

Ok. First Iam a Quebec citizen and really proud of it. Iam a separatist and I really believe in it. Iam not angry or frustated about what Conan did, I love his show, iam watching it sometimes. I can take jokes.
And for 'jpea', people from Quebec province want the Quebec to be a country because we are the biggest french territory in all Americas. And slowly the english speaking is ''invading'' the province, if we dont make anything, in 200 years from now the french will die. Also we are TOTALLY different from the rest of Canada wich are very ''americanised''... people in canada watch usa's tv and listen to usa's music and have almost the same culture as usa. But we, in Quebec, have our own culture, we listen to our own tv shows, music, cinema, we think different, we ARE different. For me a guy from Calgary or from Toronto is a stranger at the same point as a guy from Sydney or Los Angeles. I dont feel Canadian at all, iam not canadian.
Also we are tired of the stupid Canadian Government leaded by idiots like Paul Martin and his f'kn Liberal Party.
And to 'defender'. You must be 12 years old or something... i dunno but you should think before typing stuff like this.

conan o brien is one of the only things I watch on network television, his show is the best. By the way you are talking you don't know much about him. The insults were coming from triumph the insult comic dog. if someone cant see the humor they need to lighten up. The puppet was trying to sniff j. lo's ass at some awards show a few years back and she reacted in quite the same way that quebec is right now.
