Hey guys listen Russell is hilarious and I am Lebanese and let’s be serious some of that stuff is awesome your not suppose to get offended when you watch comedy it’s suppose to be over exaggerating and let’s be serious is accent isn’t that bad at all my parents especially my father has that deep accent and when my cousin visited me in the US I shit you not I almost had the same conversation with him before even watching this stand up about BOAT I’ve visited countless amount of times Russell says it’s the best party place in the world and said good things as well besides that it’s not the point it’s comedy and you have to learn to appreciate it or just don’t watch it. My cousin always said things were “beautiful ” the same way Russell did. Everything in Lebanon to my cousin is “Top 3 in the world ” with a similar accent obviously his accent wasn’t perfect but he’s not Lebanese for one so when you don’t hear people use it everyday it’s harder to do. What do you want from the guy to go up there and say all nice things and talk about all actual things that go on ? Also for what one of those kids said let’s be honest we Lebanese like to show off we care what we look like and we do want to have nice things what’s the big deal with admitting it obviously not evey Lebanese but the young community come on we know it’s true. The whole barty thing clearly was a joke. I make these jokes with my dad all the time. My friend Simon which would be pronounced see-moe in Lebanon I joke and Call him Zimon and tell him that’s what ppl would call him in Lebanon he laughs he understand it’s a joke he doesn’t attack me and say it’s misrepsentatjon come ok Najib it’s one thing to say you don’t like him and think he’s not funny and I respect your opinion but don’t sit there and say it’s not the way Lebanon is blah blah blah who cares what anyone else thinks anyone educated enough will know that’s not what Lebanon is like because they understand it’s a comedy all comedies are far fetched and dragged on and partially if not mostly made up. I read all your arguments BTW be a little more consistent and on topic the calling out of other countries this that we both know it isn’t cool. There all stereotypes and stereotypes exist for a reason because they are partially true. The way he said “NO” is spot on all my uncles do it. I love Lebanon and Lebanese people but I will admit often times we don’t like to be wrong and that to me reading all these comments is what it comes down to. Enjoyed reading this and i do wish everyone well.
