Colbert would prefer loss to Wolverine

In presenting at the Emmys on Sunday, Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert lamented his loss in the individual perf in a variety or music program to Barry Manilow by referring to fellow nominee Hugh Jackman’s most famous role: “I lost to Barry Manilow. Barry Manilow. I lost to the Copa Cabana. Singing and dancing is not performing. Wolverine I could have lost to, he has claws for hands.” Of course, the real joke is that Colbert ignores the fact that Jackman was nominated for hosting the Tony Awards.

Quedas "O Bravo"

No, actually the real joke is that you can't understand a joke. Of course Colbert knows what Hugh Jackman was nominated for! Dude, get out of the computer and I go get yourself some logical reasoning. And a sense of humor while you're at it...

I wrote Colbert ignored what Jackman was nommed for, not that he didn't know. Big difference.
