One of my wives died you know, it was very sad. It was the wrong one.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Good bit. He is very anti-PC. He brought that up on Friday, too.

His daughter (from the dead wife,) was on stage with him, prompting the "audience" questions. They played off well against each other.

I just miss actually funny comedians, but whatever. It says a lot more about you that you enjoy this level of snide insult and verbal abuse over actual comedy..

Now that I think about it, it says quite a lot about you and this violent ideology on the left that you ascribe to which has perpetrated so many attacks and murders in our country over the past year. The difference between you and that Texas shooter is probably just a matter of spine. Enjoying verbal abuse is about all you have the courage for.

That's pretty much all of British humor. I understand tho. You miss the simple joys of things that you can understand.

:lol:

That's the "humor" of the court jester verbally abusing the people in the court whom the king does not like. That's not comedy. Benny Hill was comedy. John Cleese forty years ago was comedy.

This is just a guy spewing insults and trying to prop up an intellectually bankrupt political ideology.

And it's not even funny. It fails on so many levels.

A real comedian breaks it down for the children:



"I have a doctorate, and this is third grade comedy. And I don't want to do third grade comedy."

:roll:

I think you enjoy the verbal abuse because, deep down, the only difference between you and one of the violent types is your lack of courage of conviction.

This isn't comedy you are after. You want to inflict harm on your political enemies and you know you are powerless, so this is all you have.

Everybody else sees this. It's not comedy. It's really pathetic, honestly. It's possible to do political comedy that is not pathetic like this, but for some reason the left is as incapable of true comedy these days as they are incapable of effective memes.

I mean.. if all you want is verbal abuse.. I am here all day..
