I think this is so hilarious? He is making fun of us but before that he says that he was in Germany only a single day and that English people are bigotted, so anything he says after must be prejudiced bullshit.

A German traveler arrives at the French border and the border official asks him a few questions about himself in broken English: Name, home address and so forth.. finally the border official asks: "Occupation?". The German smiles and says: "Don't worry, just vacation"
Irish man, ex girlfriend is German, still my best friend.Best friend is from Berlin.I like the Germans, I sometimes go fishing with some of them in the summer when they come over here.But I wouldn't get angry over one Irish man criticizing your lovely Deutschland.
It still felts sometimes weird when I learn something but after a while it's easier to understand and speak it. It's not like the progress I made with english, I speak that fluent but more like baking an apple pie over and over again finding the perfect recipe
+Matko Zivcic That's the reason why I will vote for AfD (Alternative for Germany) the next election! I'm a German, not a Nazi, and someone who's completely sick of the current government cheating its own people...
I'm German and I love it. The jokes are really funny and well done. I really don't get all the down votes. I mean what are people expecting in the field of comedy? Certainly not political correctness! If you have a country as topic of an act I'd be disappointment to not hear some edgy stuff. I'd rather laugh about myself than get offended at jokes.
@@fforfreedom8893 what are you, a Brit who laughs about silly walks or an American who thinks Kevin James is funny? German humor does not only exist, it's better than most others.
If you know any German, it probably sounds like Dutch. But the German accent he does is actually on point for how Germans sound when they speak English.
A lot of countries poke fun at each other. I don't think comedians are that concerned if you're offended. Please also remember that this is an Irish comedian (not British) poking fun at English people and at German people. It's just banter, dry your eyes.
Is funny because when people make fun of German it's only in the hitler time that you can leave the topic but not even our language and that we supposedly do not have fun yet we only ne other kind of fun we are not synonymous Embittered
Lol 796 Germans disliked this. I'm Australian, and regardless of what else we may be known for, we can bloody well laugh at ourselves. Once you lose the ability to laugh at yourself, you've lost a huge portion of your humour. If you laugh at something, it is impossible to be scared of it or intimidated by it whilst you are laughing. Comedy allows us to make light of what is dark.
Just because you see a particular point does not mean that there are not other points that are relevant to others. Surprise, you are not the center of the universe.
Well I'm German, I grew up here and I am very happy with that. I think Dylan's hilarious, loved Black Books and Like Totally is simply brilliant. Now I felt sliiightly hurt, as a German, by this part of the show, but that's because there are so many many people who actually believe that's what Germany's like and probably take what he says seriously. But I still love him and taking the piss out of Germans is common practice in Irish/British comedy anyway, so what the hell :D
Austrian comedians mostly only insult themselfs and are really hilarious. But it's nearly impossible for german students to listen to them because they speak mainly dialect or at least a strong austrian accent
It's his act. He's misanthropic. He hates everything. No one is safe. Dark cynical comedy is a very Irish and British thing. Don't take it so seriously.
Sarah Hatuschi Austria is beautiful I went skiing there a couple weeks ago and I used to live in Germany I have nothing against the UK but I would not want to live there
I so completely love Dylan Moran -- everyone needs to just take a chill pill. He makes me laugh like no one else. If he came to America to tour I would just be delighted.
Is there a school of thought that this man is the funniest man on the planet? I've watched all the great stand ups, but this guy is head and shoulders bove them all!
My grandad was Irish - from the Republic - and he fought in the second world war (he'd moved to England as war broke out). And no - he wasn't on the Nazis side...
Dudes! That's comedy - I'm a German, temporary living in Manchester UK, and to all Germans back home: That's their comedy. It is disrespectful, arrogant and insulting - but that's what they laugh about. So what we see is a piece of entertainment - and as a piece of entertainment it's great.
I am not butthurt by this, because I know that these are jokes but I can't find anything funny in this either. It's just insults, nothing sophisticated. Well, perhaps just not my kind of humor, he is doing everything right I guess, looking at his laughing audience.
Hm, did not make me smile even once, but there are some of his german colleges who cant catch me either. Others do, I guess comedy is recieved in a very personal way. Success is never certain.
Saw it again, it is not good, it is weak. I do not troll on purpuse. But again every comedian has his gang and his no smilers, And neither you nor me are the center of the world but for ourselfs.

This is the steriotypical way that the English see Germany and he's making fun of England because of it, by calling them bigoted to think like that and predujiced and so on. This is not how he or, any other people actually see Germany, he's just calling out England's perception of Germans. Have a nice day😊

I know, he is playing with the stereotyps we humans do have. But look at the German version fo Dietmar Wishmayer. Thats a "better" style to handle typical stereo types if you ask me
I`m german (russian roots)and i dont feel attacked or something , its just dark humor although i have to say it dont think its funny cause i heard every joke about 10 times xD. I really love to see that people from europe get closer and closer. Of course, noobs are everywhere but most people of europe know it was a bad past of an older generation. Events like Eurovision ,World Cups and a lot more... shows we are ONE today. Its an europe generation in 2010.
@machierl He says "It sounds like typewriters eating tinfoil being kicked down the stairs" which translates to German as "Es hört sich an wie Schreibmaschinen, die Alufolie fressen und dabei die Treppe runtergeschupst werden." I love that bit! Oh yes, and one thing is for sure, English is much shorter than German.
I think this guy is great. First time I've heard him and really, we all need to take ourselves less seriously. Good for you Dylan, brightened up my morning.
Guys if you look on the related videos he also goes off on Americans and the French, he also goes off on Ireland more than anything, he's just a comedian don't take it so seriously.
He's good! xD Not the most refined jokes, but satiric all the way. The problem many germans in the comments have isn't a particular lack of humour but rather a lack of properly understanding english and a decisive undertone. It's the same way round. That's why many people don't find germans funny. German has a lot more unspoken words to it than english.
I was born and raised in germany and I had to laugh so effin hard at this. "It sounds like typewriters eating tinfoil being kicked down the stairs" He's right,it totally does xD It's hard and rough,though it got better during the last century after WWII. Anyway,this was hilarious xD
+Nina Williams Yeah. As a german this makes me kinda sad. This one is definitely solid comedy. Of Course most of it is bullshit, but thats what stereotypes often are. ;)
A well-conducted satire of the prejudices of the English toward the Germans. I find the typewriter line very good, in spite of my love for the German language.

I love Irony and I am german. This Video was the first time I came in contact with Dylan Moran and I couldn´t stop laughing. I think the best he did was the series "the Black Books". Just loving it!!
Not only poor jokes but way beyond comedy or satire. Comedy makes sense when your assessment either reflects reality or people's perception of it. As you would have to look so long and so hard for someone who actually thinks of Germany as "a toilet" , that line is completely obsolete. Al Murray is a great example of a comedian with a funny way of playing with stereotypes...Dylan Moron (or whatever his name is) is not ! Merry Christmas from Deutschland :)
I discovered this clip a while ago and think it's a perfect description of us. I noticed Dylan Moran was in town with his comedy show when I was in Cardiff last year and I decided to go. Sadly, he had too much to drink before the show and the jokes didn't come quite so easy. The next day we met him at Waterstones. I swear I saw him turn around in shock and horror, when my friend said "Look who's at the till!" to me in German. Either he was really disgusted or he knows the language and oh oh...
I don't even care that I'm German but he just was not funny. just beeing insulting is not funny. and I have seen people making fun of germany, and I enjoy these. but this was just meh
EASY! when did this turn into a threeway between Germany Ireland and Britain? Dylan is a fantastic comedian who takes the piss out of all of our national stereotypes.
I can't agree with the "typewriters eating tin-foil being thrown down a staircase"-thing, because thinking about the sound of German as a native speaker of said language, I'd say it sounds more like "some old coot with a cold shoving a cow through puddles of mud".
As a German, I appreciate the easy tone and it was quite funny, too. I don't appreciate that this is a common prejudice you're often confronted with. We may have more than just WW2 in our history, but why should these things matter more? The past is the past and it's not as if other countries were just smiling and hugging Germany/Prussia or whatever and that are guilty in all aspects. It's just that I see much more people bitching about Germany's past than Germans bitching about other's history.
Loved Black Books but this is just bad. Cheap jokes that have been made a billion times before and no brain behind it. It's just too cheap, not intelligent and not funny. I've expected something way better.
Being American and un-bias to internal European rivalry/animosity, I personally am in awe at the amount of juggernaut minds that Germany has produced. They're doing the best in Europe economically it seems. And even with Hitler -- coming from poor health to making Europe shit its pants is impressive. English has produced great minds too of course. As people have said, he's a comedian: wouldn't be funny if he praised Germany. Though, Hitler material at this point is beaten to death I'm sure.
There is no prejudices or hatred in this stand up routine, it is merely British humour. Agreed maybe slightly outdated because of PC views, but still funny to some. Take for example John Cleese in Faulty Towers the German sketch, which is very funny. Most intelligent people know that things have definitely changed across Europe and more so in Germany. I have up most respect for all German people. :)
i just finished watching dylan moran drink and smoke on Black Books. i thought it was an act, but when i saw him go for a drink i laughed so hard i started to cry
I always think any language can be beautiful or horrible. lol Even French can sound horrible. Not sure about Italian, though. Italian always sounds lyrical to me. But when someone is angry and shouting? Yea...
One of the world's great comedians whether or not you can't understand satire. The entire context of this clip is about prejudical remarks about countries and nationalities. People say in these comments Britian and ireland is full of shite, hooligans etc. well thats what he's talking about ^ Dylan, about the ridiculous prevalence of prejudice in the world, except he's making people laugh about it instead of getting angry and self-righteous. He's an award winning comedian, deservedly so.
People say he is not making fun of Germans but of English prejudice of Germans. But I am from Germany and to be honest... most of the things he says about Germans and the language is spot on.
People who are missing the joke; I pity you. This is one of the best stand-up segments ever performed! :D I heart Dylan Moran, the drunken Irish fuck ^_^
My stepdad is German and he thought this was great! Irish were basically cannon fodder for the English in their wars, but the Scots said "fuck this shit! you can fuck off!"
an irish person would understand that thats all you need to say when thats all that needs to be said. no need for frills. the beauty of irish humour really. its cultural conditioning in germany, they cant help it.
Dear dear. Don't take it seriously, he's a comedian. It's his job to make fun of things and I am like obsessed with Germany and I find this hilarious xD
Its tough being a German. Go there and you will find that places like Berlin are actually incredibly friendly, Frankfurt even more so. Probably because their daddies were baddies. Its not a toilet though, some great places. Dylan Morans a funny man.
hahahaha. everyone takes this guys JOKES and starts having SERIOUS conversations. you guys are lovely. Truly, our world is a better place in the hands of you people (*my sarcasm abounds*)
You are absolutely correct, still, America didn't solely invent the Marshall plan because of good will. It was either to reject communism with capitalism and thus create free markets, much like they do today with Iraq and Afghanistan.
She knew after ONE single night that you're a hopeless case ? Thats terribly humilating, but her mentioning that you are opposites after you took it for good sex probably gave the problem away.
ThornSakura das ist nicht lustig egal wie man es dreht und wendet. Entweder du hörst Witze über Hitler von Leuten aus anderen Ländern zum ersten Mal und wie sich jemand über unsere Sprache kaputt lacht oder du hast einfachen einen falschen Humor. Mir geht es inzwischen nicht mal mehr darum das wir mit einem Völkermörder verglichen werden sondern einfach nur das immer der gleiche Witz gemacht wird. Weil den behinderten Briten und fetten Amerikanern nichts mehr einfällt oder weil ihr Grundwissen einfach nicht ausreicht.
He is one of the top end comedians out there but he's made his money and that's an Irish philosophy that surprises other cultures out there. Frankie Boyle's the same.

Al Murray is a great example of a comedian with a funny way of playing with stereotypes...Dylan Moron (or whatever his name is) is not !
Merry Christmas from Deutschland :)
The country may not be a toilet, but the people sure do look like they belong in one.
Rightttt...insulting german people isn't funny at all. But ok go on..
It really is! Didn't you hear the crowd laughing? That means they think he's being funny. That's how comedy works you know!?
I discovered this clip a while ago and think it's a perfect description of us. I noticed Dylan Moran was in town with his comedy show when I was in Cardiff last year and I decided to go. Sadly, he had too much to drink before the show and the jokes didn't come quite so easy. The next day we met him at Waterstones. I swear I saw him turn around in shock and horror, when my friend said "Look who's at the till!" to me in German. Either he was really disgusted or he knows the language and oh oh...
I don't even care that I'm German but he just was not funny. just beeing insulting is not funny. and I have seen people making fun of germany, and I enjoy these. but this was just meh
EASY! when did this turn into a threeway between Germany Ireland and Britain? Dylan is a fantastic comedian who takes the piss out of all of our national stereotypes.
Ahh that's funny :)
I can't agree with the "typewriters eating tin-foil being thrown down a staircase"-thing, because thinking about the sound of German as a native speaker of said language, I'd say it sounds more like "some old coot with a cold shoving a cow through puddles of mud".
more dutch than german tho XD
As a German, I appreciate the easy tone and it was quite funny, too. I don't appreciate that this is a common prejudice you're often confronted with. We may have more than just WW2 in our history, but why should these things matter more? The past is the past and it's not as if other countries were just smiling and hugging Germany/Prussia or whatever and that are guilty in all aspects. It's just that I see much more people bitching about Germany's past than Germans bitching about other's history.
Loved Black Books but this is just bad. Cheap jokes that have been made a billion times before and no brain behind it. It's just too cheap, not intelligent and not funny. I've expected something way better.
Being American and un-bias to internal European rivalry/animosity, I personally am in awe at the amount of juggernaut minds that Germany has produced.
They're doing the best in Europe economically it seems.
And even with Hitler -- coming from poor health to making Europe shit its pants is impressive.
English has produced great minds too of course.
As people have said, he's a comedian: wouldn't be funny if he praised Germany. Though, Hitler material at this point is beaten to death I'm sure.
I'm not german, but this is just so bad...
You're not German, congratulations for being offended on someone else. So brave
Please, DON'T FORGET that this video was posted 17 YEARS AGO
i laugh my ass off... and im german...
There is no prejudices or hatred in this stand up routine, it is merely British humour. Agreed maybe slightly outdated because of PC views, but still funny to some. Take for example John Cleese in Faulty Towers the German sketch, which is very funny. Most intelligent people know that things have definitely changed across Europe and more so in Germany. I have up most respect for all German people. :)
not funny or original
i just finished watching dylan moran drink and smoke on Black Books. i thought it was an act, but when i saw him go for a drink i laughed so hard i started to cry
People please don't forget that work makes you free
Am I the only person in the world who thinks German is a beautiful language? 😯
I always think any language can be beautiful or horrible. lol Even French can sound horrible. Not sure about Italian, though. Italian always sounds lyrical to me. But when someone is angry and shouting? Yea...
Yes. They should rename all those languages in Germany, Skandinavia, etc. to Ba.rbarian lol. Gross.
One of the world's great comedians whether or not you can't understand satire. The entire context of this clip is about prejudical remarks about countries and nationalities. People say in these comments Britian and ireland is full of shite, hooligans etc. well thats what he's talking about ^ Dylan, about the ridiculous prevalence of prejudice in the world, except he's making people laugh about it instead of getting angry and self-righteous. He's an award winning comedian, deservedly so.
What's the difference between a German and a shopping trolley?
The shopping trolley has a mind of its own
People say he is not making fun of Germans but of English prejudice of Germans. But I am from Germany and to be honest... most of the things he says about Germans and the language is spot on.
Happy you can take a joke! Thank you!
People who are missing the joke; I pity you. This is one of the best stand-up segments ever performed! :D
I heart Dylan Moran, the drunken Irish fuck ^_^
My stepdad is German and he thought this was great! Irish were basically cannon fodder for the English in their wars, but the Scots said "fuck this shit! you can fuck off!"
Man Leute ich schäme mich für euch ! Das ist doch Witzig. Und nur Comedy! Bleibt cool!!! Keep it up Dylan
an irish person would understand that thats all you need to say when thats all that needs to be said. no need for frills. the beauty of irish humour really. its cultural conditioning in germany, they cant help it.
Dear dear. Don't take it seriously, he's a comedian. It's his job to make fun of things and I am like obsessed with Germany and I find this hilarious xD
Its tough being a German. Go there and you will find that places like Berlin are actually incredibly friendly, Frankfurt even more so. Probably because their daddies were baddies. Its not a toilet though, some great places. Dylan Morans a funny man.
German food is not the best but it kicks Irish food in the ass 10times! I'm not German..
I think it's vice versa and I am German.
Common language of beer
that's not prejudice, that's just observation.
love this line and the way he is ABLE to make fun of Germans while having a show IN Germany;D awesome!
hahahaha. everyone takes this guys JOKES and starts having SERIOUS conversations. you guys are lovely. Truly, our world is a better place in the hands of you people (*my sarcasm abounds*)
You are absolutely correct, still, America didn't solely invent the Marshall plan because of good will. It was either to reject communism with capitalism and thus create free markets, much like they do today with Iraq and Afghanistan.
Irish/British people complaining about food abroad is hilarious.
She knew after ONE single night that you're a hopeless case ?
Thats terribly humilating, but her mentioning that you are opposites after you took it for good sex probably gave the problem away.
As a german. I laughed xD my god people, laugh about yourselves. We say nasty things about the britts too~
ThornSakura das ist nicht lustig egal wie man es dreht und wendet.
Entweder du hörst Witze über Hitler von Leuten aus anderen Ländern zum ersten Mal und wie sich jemand über unsere Sprache kaputt lacht oder du hast einfachen einen falschen Humor.
Mir geht es inzwischen nicht mal mehr darum das wir mit einem Völkermörder verglichen werden sondern einfach nur das immer der gleiche Witz gemacht wird.
Weil den behinderten Briten und fetten Amerikanern nichts mehr einfällt oder weil ihr Grundwissen einfach nicht ausreicht.
@@linajurgensen4698 get over yourself you kraut crybaby 😂
You're the reason the jokes will be told eternally.
He is one of the top end comedians out there but he's made his money and that's an Irish philosophy that surprises other cultures out there. Frankie Boyle's the same.
