Great work whoever put the punchline of the whole bit in quotes on the thumbnail. Spent the whole thing thinking surely that won’t be the punchline....oh, yeah it is”
I saw the thumbnail. Read your comment. And yet I was still surprised by the punchline because I had completely forgotten it listening to him speak lol.
@@MIEVAL well, I have googled it, and don't have info that Ricky is an alcoholic. Can you tell me how or where you came upon such information? I really want to know
He's in the top few great wits of the british isles, then 🙄. But yeah I take your point. I certainly should've called him Irish. Which then means we gotta compare him with Joyce (re: wit), against whom he fares even worse than before. All this to say it's a bit strange to call Wilde one of the world's great geniuses, but I do love his works and I don't mean to denigrate him.
While it does have its humorous moments about several topics, this routine relies on heteronormative prejudices to evoke laughter. So what if it's "gay," Ricky? You're making money with it. Rejoice!
His works make it pretty clear he was gay, i realized writers like oscar wilde, clive barker and chuck palahniuk were gay just by reading their novels, the random sexualizing of male bodies with little interest shown in female bodies makes it obvious
Sexism? Oscar Wilde? Since when? He was an editor for a woman's magazine where he said that beauty is also knowledge. He designed his wife's wedding dress. He and his wife both invented a prototype of a skirt that is similar to trousers. He wasn't sexist. Yes his quotes make jokes, but as a woman I was amused by them.
@@c2e.7877 "He was an editor for a woman's magazine where he said that beauty is also knowledge" that sounds stupid as hell AND sexist at the same time
@@jurgnobs1308 How? You can be beautiful and shine with intelligence. Since when is it sexist? I want to be seen for me, not to be reduced to my body, my face and my ability to reproduce. It means that you can do anything to look younger, fit standards, but when you are empty in character you are ugly.
@@c2e.7877 knowledge is alak beauty is a very different thing to beauty is also knowledge. the first puts emphasis on the intellect and how beautiful an intelligent mind is. the latter puts emphasis on looks and judges a womans perceived intelligence by her looks. in other words: his quote says the exact opposite of what you wish for.

Thanks for pointing THAT out.

I love imagining a standoff of the wits between Oscar and Ricky. They're two of my favorite smart asses.
ricky is just a comedian.....
Oscar will be remembered always.
and this is from a mexican
It’s either me or the wallpaper - Oscar Wilde’s lol
That sounds a bit gay as well
That sounds a bit lgbtq+ as well
Love a bit of Ricky
Which bit?
@@zapkvr
The best bits
who doesnt
That's what she said
Sounds a bit gay, you really meant “Oooo love me a bit of Ricky! Chance would be a fine thing…” be honest
Patriotism is the virtue of the vicious.- Oscar Wilde
That’s something a fanny boy would say
Just enjoy the joke, Woke.
@@jintsfan Sorry, could you explain the joke?
-Sun Tzu
My favourite bit
Honestly one of my favourite stand ups he's ever done.
Genius
Ricky I would like to be a functional alchoolic and eventually do presentations with a beer and make fun of clients. could you give me some tips?
Why do you think he's an alcoholic? I've never heard anything to that effect.
You can't even spell alcoholic
@@judyfrancis4515 well it is him saying. ok that you don't read but you can always google it.
@@zapkvr is that suposed to be funny? I won't even correct it for you. fyi I am not an english speaker you fart
@@MIEVAL well, I have googled it, and don't have info that Ricky is an alcoholic. Can you tell me how or where you came upon such information? I really want to know
is there a video that just has every single joke he has ever done?
Ahahah👌
Hey boys
Who says Wilde was the greatest genius who ever lived? He's in the top few great british (Edit: Irish) wits, I'll give him that...
He's Irish you half wit

"Greatest Genius . . ."?!? Not even in the UK - how can we ignore Shakespeare?
@@judyfrancis4515 lol, right? That was exactly what I thought.
No one so far as I'm aware
So, you can say buttplug on youtube, but you can’t put it in the title?
Did Ricky ever read the Portrait of Dorian Gray. If he had, he was very impatient.
Oscar Wilde was funnier in one quotation than the entirety of this video 🤦♀️
Really, give us an example
HALLO 5MTW

ROTFL
I mean, Oscar Wilde probably was gay, so...
Spoiler alert: Oscar Wild was gay) Or they say so.
His works make it pretty clear he was gay, i realized writers like oscar wilde, clive barker and chuck palahniuk were gay just by reading their novels, the random sexualizing of male bodies with little interest shown in female bodies makes it obvious
Ricky knows full well oscar wilde was gay as do the entire audience. The jokes are funny because he is pretending not to know
Nothing but my genius and a bit of anti-semitism and sexism implemented in literature people will have to read ages from now...
