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

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

That's painful to read. How can someone maintain such a collosal air of arrogance after failing time, and time again?

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.
