How about his input on the Boston Marathon bombing?
I remember, when 9/11 went down, my reaction was, "Well, I've had it with humanity."
But I was wrong. I don't know what's going to be revealed to be behind all of this mayhem. One human insect or a poisonous mass of broken sociopaths.
But here's what I DO know. If it's one person or a HUNDRED people, that number is not even a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the population on this planet. You watch the videos of the carnage and there are people running TOWARDS the destruction to help out. (Thanks FAKE Gallery founder and owner Paul Kozlowski for pointing this out to me). This is a giant planet and we're lucky to live on it but there are prices and penalties incurred for the daily miracle of existence. One of them is, every once in awhile, the wiring of a tiny sliver of the species gets snarled and they're pointed towards darkness.
But the vast majority stands against that darkness and, like white blood cells attacking a virus, they dilute and weaken and eventually wash away the evil doers and, more importantly, the damage they wreak. This is beyond religion or creed or nation. We would not be here if humanity were inherently evil. We'd have eaten ourselves alive long ago.
So when you spot violence, or bigotry, or intolerance or fear or just garden-variety misogyny, hatred or ignorance, just look it in the eye and think, "The good outnumber you, and we always will."
or
his speech to tv execs?
Just type in "Patton Oswalt Stand Up" on youtube.com and you'll get a ton of results.
This is just the first one I found, but it made me laugh all the same.
But when all is said and done, I'm a fan and that's all that matters to me.

As for the show, you tell me if you don't think reality TV has gone too far. It's painfully obvious that half the stuff is faked. That or the police and voters in Pawnee are completely stupid.
I remember when the Blair Witch documentary came out. You spent two weeks holed up in your home. Then that other documentary, Paranormal Activity, was released and you spent the next two weeks living on the sidewalk in front of your building. I've told you a thousand times before, but it bears repeating:
You've got to buy Ghost Insurance from me. It's the only way you're going to be able to provide for your family after you get taken by the dead!
