21 Times Celebrities Got In Trouble For Jokes That Aged As Well As Milk

The thing about jokes is that they don't always age well-- and sometimes that puts the people who told them in an awkward position. The fact is, comedy is hard.

Except for physical comedy like Abbott and Costello and the Little Rascal…okay wait maybe not that one. Shoot. Well, point in case, we guess.
