Louis CK reportedly joked about masturbation during a recent comedy show, telling the audience: “I like to jerk off, and I don’t like being alone.”
CK delivered the line on Wednesday night at a comedy club in San Jose, California, according to The Daily Beast.
A little more than a year has passed since CK admitted that accusations of sexual misconduct made against him were true. Several woman said CK had masturbated in their presence, either in person or on the phone.
CK has been staging a comeback since August 2018, at times attracting protesters, as was the case on Wednesday.
His set, during which audience members were reportedly ask to put their phones in sealed cases, also included lines about “retarded” children, according to The Daily Beast.
CK’s joke “got a good laugh” the website wrote, adding the first half of his performance was met with “a lot of laughter” – before losing momentum in the second half, particularly after a 9/11 joke.
“I got on a plane once,” CK is quoted as saying.
“And this couple comes up to me as we’re boarding. There’s an empty seat next to me, and this woman says to me, ‘Would you mind moving so my husband and I can sit together?’ And he’s behind her and he’s like [motions – no]. I didn’t know what to do. I don’t wanna upset him. But I don’t wanna sit with his f****** wife. So I just got off the plane.
“And then the plane took off. And it hit the World Trade Center.”
