I saw Fb live and was less than impressed. Once you got the tone of his jokes, they weren’t funny.
His warm up act; Craig Campbell had the whole audience in fits and everyone thought he was better than Frankie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZqB4Cc80mY
Who doesnt tell poor taste joked in the pub? Window licker ? first one on the sunshine bus? you hear jokes like this every day .The same as black ,irish ,asian jokes .It doesn’t make you racist or cruel to the disabled
Doesn’t make them funny though edric and at least races are able to defend them selves. Disabled people aren’t.
Don’t mean to spoil your buzz but handicapped dudes aren’t game IMO.
i dont hear jokes like this or racist ones in my every day life – I dont tell – or even know – an asian or black joke
what Dr mungus [ do I always have to call you this?] said is true you cannot just say anything and say it does not mean anything as it is just humour- it can still be offensive and be reflective or you underlying values.
Why don’t you tell some of your jokes then Edric? See what we think of them like. Y’know, if you think there isn’t a problem. Go on, let’s have a few. 😀
Does this mean that they don’t have to take any responsibility for anything they say?
Yes. No. Yes. No. Yes. No… I’m off to bed, life is far too short to worry about who said what about who or should it be whom?
All I ‘ll say is it made me laugh like ****.
She would probably let him though don’t you think?
There has been a whole ****load of comedy dvds released recently and I have seen most of them (don’t judge me). Frankie Boyle is very disappointing, it holds no surprises. The best for me by looong way is Tim Minchin. Dara O’Briain is the best of the stand-ups but also good is Sean Lock and Stewart Francis. Tommy Tiernan is good, Andrew Maxwell bad. Billy conolly is ranty, angry and very unfunny (disappointed here too) before anything offensive. I stopped watching. It was bad.
