A tale as old as time.
After a good career of actually being funny, Jack Black got into gaming, then Vaush, then started doing campaign speeches for Biden.
"So I had a meeting with an important man the other day. Do you want to hear about? Of course you want to." Stage right - the man in question grimaces. Biden entirely forgot that at the end of each sentence there should have been a pregnant pause to build up the joke. So like a driver panicked in a skid - Biden massively overcorrects. "That man's name was... No.... I mean - gosh darn it... I said hello Jack, jack, jack, jack, jack. Hello—"
Jack Black bounds on stage to save the president "Hellllllllllllllllllllllllo, Mr. President!" The President is frozen and staring blankly. Black tries to save him by hamming things up even more. "Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllloooo, Mr. President!" He's doing the best job he can of making it look scripted. Considering how awful things clearly are - he's doing an excellent job but the President is still frozen and his facial expressions are getting scary.
Black soldiers on "Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo, Mr. President!" The president moves side to side a little but now his face looks like a death mask. Black has a shot of inspiration "Gooooooood Morrrrrrrrrrrrrning Vietnam!" And the president comes out of his standing coma. "I like that movie. With Mork." Black's smile is unwavering. "Of course, of course - Mr. President."
Oh I didn't even realize that was him I thought it was America's got talent or some shit.
I never found him funny, just annoying. Even more annoying when people I knew would talk about how funny he is.

I can't hate Jack Black, even when he's wearing a US flag
Edit: Found out he's a huge lib. Fuck 'em.
After Ronnie James Dio died and was no longer there to guide him, Jack Black wound up in a very bad place.
I always hated this man because of his try hardism personality
Spinning up the Charlie Haden grave perpetual motion engine.
I don't get it. The only Charlie Haden I know of was a jazz bassist who died years ago.
Same one. Haden seemed to have pretty good politics, and Jack Black is married to one of his triplet daughters.
Here's a pretty solid interview. Pretty sure he had a lib streak, but his 1971 on stage protest in Portugal is bolder than anything I would ever imagine doing so he gets my respect.
Liberation Music Orchestra is a banger album, too! I'd recommend it to anyone who's stayed up late listening to old communist music
Thanks. I only know him from his work with Ornette Coleman and some (more than some?) side work he did. I can never remember who played on what when it comes to side work.
