Every comedian who gets heckled should do this. The number of hecklers would decrease pretty quick.


Nah, the only way to do that is stop serving alcohol.

I've been Steadfastly in Weiners jock since the moment this bullshit started but I've gotta say one thing. If you're a public official, and people know you're a public official, and you send them "interesting" photos of yourself to these people THEY ARE GOING TO COME OUT! I like Weiner...I like his politics I like how he argues, he's a smart guy. He made an INCREDIBLY stupid decision to do any of this and for being an idiot maybe he should lose his job.
Sorry but if you're in public office YOU HAVE TO BE SMARTER!!!


Maybe. I think our overwhelming sexual impulses have a deserved reputation for inhibiting our rationality, even, at times, in the best of men. Ideally, would he have the discipline and maturity to suppress those impulses? Sure. But we don't elect people because they're superhuman, we elect people because they're fit to represent us. Seems to me that he's done that perfectly. A bright, passionate guy whose own dick-drive destroyed his career. What's more human than that?

If he's gone, and the people wanted him gone, and everyone was calling for it, fine. But they had fucking better be consistent.

Sorry, but I had to LOL at the "Are you more than 7 inches??!!" heckle. Sue me.

@ VoodooV
Really? Please do name these Republican doing something "far far more despicable and against the law but rarely resign"


How about Bush and illegal domestic surveillance?

How about Rumsfeld and torture at Abu Ghraib?

Or Dick Cheney outing a CIA operative for political revenge?

Look, I wasn't personally abusive to the guy, but he's a representative of his company - and I think his potential Australian customers have a right to know that Amazon may not be a good place for their sensitive data.

That poor guy most likely had no hand in the shutdown of the WikiLeaks servers, I don't see how he deserves to be heckled. Also, it's just a (conspiracy) theory that they shut down the WikiLeaks servers because of the US Gov't, or because of massive DDOS attacks.
Very likely Amazon told the guy to refer to their statement if any questions about WikiLeaks arise. I dunno, it's a free seminar, don't ruin it for the people who actually go there for constructive reasons.



Meanwhile, the guy will probably go back to his boss and say something to the effect of, "man, that meeting was pretty intense. These guys want way more than just tech specs, they want assurance that the service will be quality on a lot of levels. One guy even mentioned our role in wikileaks."

And here's what his boss will hear, "blah, blah, blah, you should hold a meeting about where you want to eat lunch today."

Ok, fair enough.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Heckling totally warranted. It always surprises me when corporations do talks like this and send people who can't answer inevitable questions. How could they not have predicted these kind of questions? They are lecturing to people who care and know about these issues!

It's annoying for both parties. For them, they feel stupid, and for the audience, they don't get the answers they want.

How to heckle yourself 101

Daft Cun.t that's got to be the best return-heckle.
