Gratuitous Richard Simmons Insult of the Day
John Waters, quoted in this New York Times piece about Waters's new monologue film, "This Filthy World."
Try the veal.
Mr. Waters runs a few threads through the monologue, the main one being, “Everybody has limits.” Yes, this famous limit-pusher has things that appall him, which he of course gleefully describes. His best-known partner in tastelessness, a certain cross-dresser, also had a threshold, he says. “Even Divine had limits,” Mr. Waters tells his audience. “The first time he met Richard Simmons, he felt homophobic.”But seriously people, he'll be here all week.
Try the veal.
