Sting, quickness, and delivery...

Originality doesn't matter anymore, apparently. Especially after two other seasons and any decent internet joke has been used, why are those who take a chance and write their own material get nailed. Take Robyn for example. I'd take someone who had at least some fire and tons or originality over anyone who copy and pasted their material in half an afternoon. I think a lot of us who have heard plenty of yo momma jokes couldn't care less about the retread jokes. Like what Matt on the jury said, "At least Robyn was original...". I guess i just don't get what Wilmer wants by pushing through someone who doesn't add anything to the game of making fun of people.

I noticed that too and its so annoying. If internet jokes can get you far then I could win the best of my city easily. Perfect examples of people who got far and shouldn't have because of lack of originality are Chris(LA, and got *beep* owned by Harp), Glenn(NY, worst decision ever when they voted him instead of Kareem who would've beat Cutless and probably take the NY crown), Vakisha, and Luis from this week.

that's so true what you guys are saying. I have no freakin' clue what goes through Wilmer's head when he makes the selections. Apparently based on substantial evidence from previous episodes (Glenn over Kareem) and now Lewis over Robyn that he favors black people who seem more street-like or thuggish. It's not anything deragatory towards anyone, just that's how Wilmer prefers his contestants when it comes to a 2-2 tie. I felt that Kareem was robbed and so was Robyn. I guess he just wants his show to seem credible with the urban traditional trash-talking.

Anyone agree with me? What is Wilmer trying to prove? That's he's down with black people? I don't understand his decisions sometimes.

Lets not forget Trakstar, I thought he had better jokes than E-Man.

Yeah, save for the Chuck vs. D-Redd battle. Wilmer could at least attempt to not make himself look blatantly partial.
