    Steven Yeun is really one of my favorite actors at this point. I totally get what Pedro means about seeing Glen for the first time in Walking Dead and recognizing a “quality” there. Yeun just nails every single role - action, comedy, drama, horror. He brings such a realness.

I remember seeing something about racial jokes and the same honestly applies for any joke that could be offensive. There's a difference between a racist joke, and a joke that's racist. Same thing for this topic. Most of the best comedians have used dark humor like that. Dave Chapelle, George Carlin, Bill Burr, Ricky Gervais. Just to name a few.

Does he simply see the atmosphere of the worship at the church as a warm and open setting/excuse to let out his emotions? Just absolutely brilliant.
