Loads of people have been saying recently you gotta see this guy, he’s hilarious. Some horribly unfunny gobshite scouser. No not Amps but Paul Smith. Fuck me, terrible. Can’t quite put my finger in who’s he’s on par with but it’s fucking dire.

Homegrove Mark Normand doing comedy in Germany

Seems I didn’t miss anything.

YouTube keeps serving me Shane Gillis videos, so I gave his netflix special a go… laughed hard, perhaps more than I should have. He’s like a self-aware Kenny Powers, not entirely sure if it’s shtick or if he’s genuinely like this… either way, hilarious.

Also… he might be my boy, but I’m glad Hasan Minhaj is being called out for the shoddy stand-up comedian that he is. He’s garbage and always has been.

Homegrove Now that’s a good joke.

It doesn’t work:

“The British Isles are a group of islands in the North Atlantic Ocean off the north-western coast of continental Europe, consisting of the islands of Great Britain, Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Inner and Outer Hebrides, the Northern Isles (Orkney and Shetland), and over six thousand smaller islands.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Isles

I think terms to have been used for this joke should have been ‘biologically’ and also ‘geographically’.

That would be a better discussion and allow us to have a technical comedy workshop on this issue.

What was said cannot be dismissed at this point as…“It doesn’t work”.

Not funny and doesn’t work. Other than that it’s great.

Dave Attell’s new special on Netflix was disappointing. I mean I did laugh out loud a few times, and he’s still sharp and fast, but other than that I struggled to imagine showing it so someone who I’ve been talking him up as a legend. Well, at least he’s not turned into a “ooh I’m so edgy” comic like Gervais or an angry unfunny rich man like Chappelle.
