    Sorry for the Reddit links, but somebody did a great writeup of the infamous roast:

    https://old.reddit.com/r/HobbyDrama/comments/xk73sy/comedy_how_to_piss_off_everyone_youve_ever_met_so/

    And Yvette Nicole Brown did an AMA where she compliments all of the Community cast except for Chevy Chase:

      Holy shit. I had somehow never seen this before and, while I heard Chevy was a grade A asshole, I didn’t realize he was the Japanese A5 Wagyu of assholes (that’s not fair to steak). Damn.
