Chevy Chase took his Comedy Central roasting very personally: "They clearly didn't like me"

I must be so inured to this stuff because I watched the whole thing, waiting for where it got “vicious” or seemed like the roasters “really didn’t like” him, and it really never hit. Not in context, at least, since almost everyone also mentioned how much they loved him, and it was, after all, a roast.
Chase struck me, yet again, as an old white guy of privilege who never had to learn how to deal with people questioning or poking fun at him. Must’ve been nice while it lasted! Which was his entire career! Lucky bugger.
