    Damn, I didn’t know about Gervais’ advocacy or that he’s vegan. Very neat. I bet he’s got some really interesting and useful ideas around interacting with non-vegans, (edit: as he seems smart and is a very skilled comedian and actor)

          Because his “comedy” is basically just being cruel to people he doesn’t understand and you called him smart and a “very skilled comedian.”

            I’ve only seen him in sitcoms - like the office, not standup. I’m feeling open-minded so I’ll strike out these positive appraisals

              Yeah I feel like The Office was probably his best work anyway

                Watched after life recently and really enjoyed the message and cast. Also the show Derek is really endearing.
