Re: UK's biggest welfare family have another baby
Even at the individual comic level, though, it is what Martin refers to as the slave morality. It's a kind of snide, sarcastic bile that is something that can only come from a place of weakness and envy.
It's very similar to East and Left Coast comedy here in America. Except black comics from those places. Black comics do not typically behave like that.

There's still a lot of self deprecating humour amongst British comics.
QI has gone downhill since Steven Fry left but the topical panel shows are good. A lot of the best stuff is on BBC Radio 4.

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.

It's always Sunny is the only good comedy here. Everything else is garbage

Stephen Fry should be arrested and fined for his "hate speech", I mean the guy blatantly made a WHITE SUPREMACIST hand gesture on television:Montegriffo wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2019 11:51 amThere's still a lot of self deprecating humour amongst British comics.

Sure... He "claims" that he didn't mean it that way, and that he doesn't want the "ok sign" to be co-opted by "at-right white supremacists"...
...But as anyone who has followed British news knows, context doesn't matter. Making a joke is not an excuse. Posting rap lyrics with the "n-word" in memory of someone who died, not an excuse. Stephen Fry is obviously as racist bigot spreading his evil white supremacist beliefs to the nation and HE MUST BE PUNISHED!!
...that is, if you truly believe in the ideology that 'hate' speech must be outlawed, then that law must be applied equally against all, no matter their politics, gender identity, race, religion, etc.

I read that crossing fingers is an alt-right sign for "gas the Jews".

Jewish pedophile (real name Friedman) that fled to France when he worried one of his underaged butt-boys was going to press charges. Claimed it was a "mental breakdown." Now trying to restart his career by being edgy.Ph64 wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2019 12:54 pmStephen Fry should be arrested and fined for his "hate speech", I mean the guy blatantly made a WHITE SUPREMACIST hand gesture on television:Montegriffo wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2019 11:51 amThere's still a lot of self deprecating humour amongst British comics.

How I Met Your Mother, what a fucking disappointment that show was. Went on way too long, until they sabotaged all the characters and then fucked up the ending something fierce. That show had such potential and was great in the early going, but they pissed it all away chasing ratings and milking the franchise until long after they ran out of good material.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2019 11:39 amHard to match Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother, sure.
Broad City is about the only decent US comedy we get here.

But yeah It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia still going strong, I hope they end it before they run out of good material, be like Seinfeld, pro tip.

It's been going forever and still great. The actors make the show and the characters are relatable. No way to fuck it up.StCapps wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2019 1:20 pmAtlanta is pretty awesome.
