Popular Post worgeordie Posted August 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2022 Here are the 10 best jokes from comedians (I say that Loosely) from this years Edinburgh fringe festival , they must have been hanging around school yards to steal those jokes , The top jokes were: 1. Masai Graham: I tried to steal spaghetti from the shop, but the female guard saw me and I couldn’t get pasta. 2. Mark Simmons: Did you know, if you get pregnant in the Amazon, it’s next-day delivery. 3. Olaf Falafel: My attempts to combine nitrous oxide and Oxo cubes made me a laughing stock. 4. Hannah Fairweather: By my age, my parents had a house and a family, and to be fair to me, so do I – but it is the same house and it is the same family. 5. Will Mars: I hate funerals – I’m not a mourning person. 6. Olaf Falafel: I spent the whole morning building a time machine, so that’s four hours of my life that I’m definitely getting back. 7. Richard Pulsford: I sent a food parcel to my first wife. FedEx. 8. Tim Vine: I used to live hand to mouth. Do you know what changed my life? Cutlery. 9. Sophie Duker: Don’t knock threesomes. Having a threesome is like hiring an intern to do all the jobs you hate. 10. Will Duggan: I can’t even be bothered to be apathetic these days. 35 years since I have been to the UK , what a miserable place it must be now I suppose all jokes have to be politically correct now ........???? regards Worgeordie 9 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Crossy Posted August 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2022 Yeah, it's gone all PC, "don't offend anyone or you'll be cancelled", so now the only ones to be offended are those actually paying to watch this drivel. 13 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post herfiehandbag Posted August 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2022 Don't forget the Edinburgh Festival, along with several others of it's ilk, is all about being seen and heard by the "right sort" of people. "Never, in the field of human comedy, have so few been lectured by so many in black roll neck sweaters..." 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MrMuddle Posted August 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2022 I think the humour has gone out of a lot of people's lives. While the woke and PC stuff certainly has a lot to do with the drop in comedy standards, great comedians like Tommy Cooper, didn't need to abuse anyone, or put anybody else's lifestyle down. Not one of the 10 jokes listed in the OP, would have made his repertoire. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat is a type of crazy Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Pretty weak jokes. There is a way to do it. Think of Borat. The first movie. Most jokes are politically incorrect and he makes fun of the left and right. Yet most on the left and right loved it. Ricky Gervais to a degree too. Talent can still shine through. Tough though on the less talented. Some youth have always been opinionated and holier than thou but now they have the megaphone and constant self reflection of the internet, and it makes everyone think too much. If you watch an old episode of On the Buses, say, you can see the youth may have a bit of a point on some of the jokes but there's still a decent laugh there. People got back then that it's nothing too serious. Benny Hill was made fun of as far back as the eighties by Ben Elton for being sexist and a bit old hat yet Benny somewhat endures because, though women were often seen as a sex object, the joke was always about himself and his attempts at getting women rather than the women themselves. Corporations and programmers will always go where the money is so if there is sufficient demand for something it will make its way back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaiyaTH Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 In Holland multiple comedians were asked why the real fun things had stopped, and why they not start to do shows and stuff like that again. Their answer is that they are afraid to be lynched of there decades of work and reputation, due to wokes. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
