Heard a joke once: Invisible Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Doctor says, 'Treatment is simple. Great guy Pagliacci is having a party tonight. That should pick you up.' Invisible Man bursts into tears. Says, 'But doctor...I have no body to go with!"
"Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains."
Skelly is a Utilitarian. He believes that the moral action is that which produces the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people. And the greatest number of people is always himself.
and if 'ee can't see you... YOU CAN'T SEE 'IM
Love these literature deep dives.
Another work of perfection
The Invisible Man was written at around the same time and from the same culture as Jekyll and Hyde, and Dorian Gray. It was a good time for stories about a man gaining the power to escape accountability and using it to commit crimes.
I first found your channel from your collaboration with atun shei films and your war of the worlds video and ever since ive been so glad to have found your channel
you have such a nice voice whem you speak it makes watching this feel like a little documentary!
Looking like Quatermain from The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
Another stellar presentation thank you
A'reyt Catherine. After commenting on the post about this video, I could not see what else there was to say, except hurry up and do more so your viewers can see them.
Fascinating as always 🙂
Interesting that Wells, as in War of the Worlds, has created an enemy that is advanced beyond normal humans. His views on imperialism and his invasion literature influences coming through again?
Loved the video!
Brava Catherine and Bravo Simon! Another excellent video.
Once upon a time the invisible man was named Rupert Murdoch, who hasn't really contributed anything of value...
Aweee, no mention of David McCallum from the 1975 TV series I watched as a 7 year old 😶
It does get indirectly mentioned as one of those films and shows which has an invisible character but literally no other connection to the HG Wells original
I don't need to turn invisible, I already am :D
Catherine, can I take the opportunity of the subject of invisible man to recommend a channel with an invisible presenter. I think you would enjoy Old Britannia channel. This week the subject fits in with my joke about Warr and Piece Hall, which you liked.
Not to sound like Spock, but... fascinating.
You are very welcome to sound like Spock unless you come up with "Illogical, Captain!"
Is about how super powers are the best thing that can happen to you and have zero down sides
I’d be arrested for sure.
How would they be able to arrest you if you were invisible?
