Welcome back.
Thank you, no more taunting gifs from me.

I agree 100%.
I was never much on her humor anyway.
Griffin is not a very nice person, she is also a backstabber. My little brother is good friends with an A list celebrity. I suppose I could say I'm friends with them too, I've been to her house several times and she's said hello to me (by name which is a rare thing in this town) when we've run into each other at restaurants or bars. This particular person was also, some time ago, very good friends with Kathy Griffin, who I, thankfully, never met. She stopped being friends with Griffin after Griffin exposed, in her stand up act, a ton of personal things they had discussed. So, not a nice person.
Two things really bother me about this incident though. One is the non-apology apology. Yeas, she said she wen't "too far" and was sorry, but she never apologized to Trump or his family. Yes, I'm sure doing so would have caused vomit to rise in her throat, but if you're actually sorry then you should actually apologize. Secondly, she's now painting herself as the victim of "old white men", further abdicating any responsibility she has for placing herself in the middle of this shit storm. Her press conference was nauseating and is the archetype for the kind of behavior that has apparently become acceptable in some quarters and led directly to Trump's election. You screwed up Griffin, own it. I think her press conference was the nail in the coffin.
