If you go to a comedy club an sit in the front row expect to get burned - same as Academy's if you're up for an Oscar - you're going to be burned.

My comment was not put into that context - so yes - I if someone commented on my wife at a comedy club etc. then I have to expect that if I sat in the front row. I remember the amazing Don Rickles who did much worse but was known for it. So - I agree with you.
