\u201cHow crazy is it to think that we\u2019re going to celebrate
\nChrist <\/strong>at Christmas with a big traditional production
\nto celebrate what we are all celebrating in the
\nworld during Christmastime, which is the birth of Christ<\/em><\/span>.”
\n<\/em><\/span> – <\/em><\/span>Ric Grenell<\/strong>, the new president of The Kennedy Center<\/em>.  He says their new chairman
\nof the board wants to \u201cmake art great again\u201d!  I believe that\u2019s how Hitler <\/strong>got started.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jaymes Vaughan <\/strong>recently asked ChatGPT <\/em>to write a comedy roast about hubby Jonathan Bennett<\/strong>, and asked to make it \u201cvery mean\u201d.  While you can see Jaymes read it (and Bennett\u2019s hilarious response) on BillyMasters.com<\/u><\/strong><\/a>, here\u2019s some of it: \u201cJonathan Bennett: Hollywood\u2019s answer to \u2018Do we have a budget for a real leading man?  No?  OK, call him.  You had your big break as Aaron Samuels in Mean Girls<\/em><\/strong>, a movie so iconic that people still quote it to this day…but somehow, not your lines…. It\u2019s honestly impressive how you\u2019ve managed to stretch 15 minutes of Mean Girls<\/em> fame to an entire career of…well, existing…You\u2019re like the Hollywood version of an outdated iPhone<\/em>.  Sure, you technically still work, but no one\u2019s exactly excited to use you.  Every time you pop up in a Hallmark <\/em>movie, America collectively shrugs and says, \u2018Oh, HIM again!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

That made me curious \u2013 what would ChatGPT have to say about your beloved Billy Masters<\/strong>?  I didn\u2019t fare much better.  \u201cBilly Masters?  When people say \u2018not everyone is cut out for comedy,\u2019 Billy\u2019s face is the first thing that pops up in their minds.  Billy\u2019s column is like a buffet \u2013 half of it is stuff you just don\u2019t want to touch, and the other half makes you question if the food is even fresh!  You\u2019d get more laughs reading the back of a cereal box \u2013 at least that has some mystery to it!  And let\u2019s talk about his comedic timing \u2013 it\u2019s about as sharp as a marble.  If comedy had a participation trophy, Billy would have a shelf full of them \u2013 probably displayed next to his collection of unfunny Tweets.\u201d  I take offense to that last bit \u2013 my lifetime Tweets <\/em>are probably still in single digits.<\/p>\n
