The "punching up instead of punching down" theory of comedy seems to go right out the window if you're a university graduate mocking lower-class caucasians.
Yeah, i feel like this comment originated from Carlin because he didnt like Andrew Dice Clay, but its hard to ignore that carlin did a bit about starving african children. Im not sure its POSSIBLE to punch farther down.
Its always been selectively applied.
Or if there is a non-leftist minority person you want to make fun of
@@whitewhale9012 When? I remember as a kid there was a bunch of "feel good" commercials about starving African children from a charity where you gave them your money and they were going to feed a kid. No idea if it was a scam or not, but if it was bout that time the target likely wasn't the African Children and more the people donating to that charity and patting themselves on the back for it.
I laugh at the idea of their superiority when they are, in fact, going to be indentured slaves for their foreseeable futures. "Yeah, I may work a 9 to 5, but I already have a house and no debt. Enjoy repaying those student loans for the next 30 years."
@Raggmopp 3377 Yup, I have a wife and 2 kids, plus big friggin' purebred dog and a nice house.
And I'm only in my 30s, still have alot of life to live, I hope those leftists seethe watching other people have fun and enjoy life.
You get one of two things:
1. "I have a vagina. Isn't that hilarious?"
2. "Laugh or you're a horrible person."
Don't forget 1.a: Graphic descriptions of the weird olfactory characteristics of said vagina.
Yikes. 😱🤢🤮
I'm a woman and I've always wanted to advise the "comedian" that she really needs to see her doctor, if such experiences are common enough for her to have written them into her "comedy" routine. Either she has a persistent infection or she's been sleeping with some pretty repugnant people, or both.
"Lady, that's not normal, it's creepy AF. Get that nasty thing treated, will you? No one needs to hear about it except your doctor."
There is reason why Amy Schumer isn't funny her telling jokes about her private part isn't funny its gross. She wasn't taught manners growing up clearly.
3. Boyfriend/husband's performance in bed
4. Relationship with mother
5. How "gay/bi" she is.
3things......3. "all men suck"
What these "comediennes" need is therapy that _doesn't_ validate everything they do, not an audience.
Leftist humor comes in 2 styles:
1. Look at us being morally superior to the right
2. Use the comedy night captive audience to blogpost irl
🤖 ComediaNPCs be like: “Something something… Orange Man… Cheetos reference…”
You forgot 3
My genitals.
One couldnt be more correct. There's a clip of a hooknose ripping on white people then a heckler brings up the tribes control of the media and he starts screeching like a banshee.
Dads google history! Dads google history..
"Let me tell you about the time I was raped/abused..oh, there's no punchline, now back to my abuse, fuck men"
“Fluent in sarcasm.” = “I’m a bitch.”
Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.
@@Astorath_the_Grim aye but wit nonetheless 😂
"Bitch"?
No.
"C@nt"
Yep 👍😁
@@Astorath_the_Grim And a very subtle form of cruelty.
I was at a brewery that had a comedy night, things were going great up until a "Feminists" "comedian" came up. And the first words out of her mouth was "I'M GAY!!" with a big smile on her face like we'd all start cheering, hooting and hollering. Yeah the room was dead silent and everyone faces had the look of "we don't care, go away." and it only got worse than that. Heck one guy who was laughing at everything was dead silent.
many of these people mistake their sexuality and/or gender for a personality and think that it has some form of shock value that will open the door with an audience.
@James C Ikr, it's as if they've been in cryo since 1980, and they've just now just been awakened and flung on stage; and they think there's something "subversive" about being gay. 🙄
Damn to be a heckler at that club.
"I'm gay!"
"I own a Toyota. Got anymore pointless facts?"
@@prettyboyjeremy LOL, That's funnier than anything she came out with.
@@prettyboyjeremy my heckle was "So what?"
Who knew that “Laugh or you’re sexist” wasn’t a good pitch? 🤔
Right up there with ze Germans saying " Ve 'ave vays of making you laugh."
Ah ah ?
Ironically, the fact no one laughs is the funniest thing about woke comedy
It's the same as "like our movie/show/book or you are sexist/racist/homophobic".
Hopefully they’ll run out of money eventually
They havent weaponised comedy, they lack any shred of a sense of humour, they have weaponised being offended at jokes
It's difficult to be funny if you're the actual joke
"I could be in a magazine!"
"Like what, National Geographic?"
*_critical hit_*
Now that's a lotta damage!
In British voice: " Damn, what do you say to that huh? Destroyed? Ruined? Wrecked."
Yeah man, all I could think was, "HAHAH Stop it Silky, you're killin' 'em hahahaha"
indeed. here's your grass skirt.

What’s sad are the people who know these comedians are not funny but they have to pretend they are. You can see it on their face too
But *why*? What do they gain from lying?
It's the "emperor has no clothes" metaphor, in real life.
Just like they have to do with the pay for wnba, soccer, tennis etc.
@@MegaSpideyman they get to keep there job, Twitter account, etc.
@@jasoncarter610 But why would Elon get rid of them for criticising a comedian? Why should they lose their job for it?
This reminds me of an episode of King of the Hill. Bobby starts attending a clowning class to further his prop comic aspirations. The self-aggrandizing professor turns humor into an academic deconstruction, making it stuffy and desperately unfunny. The professor wins Bobby over by convincing him real comedy is a noble and time-honored pursuit requiring study, and strict adherence to comedy doctrine. All of Bobby's usual comedy bits must be abandoned because they're lowbrow and pedestrian. By the end, Hank saves Bobby from embarrassing himself at the school talent show. He tells him what he learned from his jackass clown professor wasn't funny, just creepy and weird. Bobby goes back to his old jokes, gets lots of laughs from the audience, and spares himself from being labeled as an unfunny weirdo guided by glib liberal arts school sensibilities.
That was a really good episode. While I can somewhat recognize the value of academic research along the lines of that jackass teacher, comedy kinda needs to be low-brow to function properly. There may be particular genres of comedy with their own internal conventions/logic, but the best comedy rarely adheres to a strict formula. If anything, one of the most important factors of comedy is _toying with the audience's pattern recognition,_ often by framing a scenario and doing something other than what the audience has been primed to expect. Unless said situation is based on personal anecdote, that requires being able to think on one's feet, and more importantly that the comedian be able to present the joke or story in such a way that listeners can't help but crack up. And that also means being able to read your audience and anticipate how they'll react to information; it's all about surprising them. It's a dynamic relationship that can easily turn sour.
That academic jackass should have stuck with talking to esoteric college students and fellow researchers of antiquated forms of comedy. He nearly made Bobby forget his audience, because the only audience he cares about have been dead for centuries.
That was a good episode, then again being a King of the Hill fan, they're all good.... I tell ya what!
King of the hill had quite a few Episodes tackling that kind of stuff
Yeah. It's still as relevant as it was when it aired. Narcissistic hacks with delusions of grandeur still pretend to be artistic geniuses while sucking the joy out of whatever field they are in, convinced they are doing something original.
I had totally forgotten that one! I'm going to run watch it now. Thanks for the reminder!
Christopher Hitchens' timeless essay 'Why Women Aren't Funny' and his response to the screeching hordes 'Why Women Still Aren't Funny' has the best take on this.
@@chuckyxii10 she is funny when she’s not crying about her victim complex. She was very funny but her disorders are not funny, they are to be pitied. We don’t laugh at the genuinely downtrodden. She used to have a quirky upbringing, now she’s just another hipster on pills. She courts a leftist audience now. And it’s not funny now.

There are women who are funny, and there used to be quite a few of them. Lucile Ball and her peers were “brilliant dingbats”.
But women playing dingbats are now verboten.
Hannah Gadsby won awards for comedy that amounted to her hating on men and talking about sexual abuse...more therapy session than comedy.
She needs a padded cell, medication, and long _private_ sessions with therapists who won't simply validate all her bad choices in life. Not astroturfed media praise and more comedy specials.
The sad thing is, roughly 12 months before that dumpster fire of a "comedy" show, she was really funny. Something clearly broke in her brain, or someone convinced her that she should use her fame to "empower the message" or whatever crap they tell each other to do.
She is immune to therapy.
And humour too, evidently.
'Homosexuality has nothing to do with sexual trauma!', they said. Hannah Gadsby: 'So anyway, here's my sexual trauma featuring men. Men are trash, did I mention that I'm a lesbian?'
Who would give awards for that "comedy"?
I saw Romesh Ranganathan on stage during that tour when he showed up on the Isle of Man, I heckled the man when he talked about the state of Brighton Beach, and sent him into a meltdown.
He apologised after the first half for having a good shout at me, to which I heckled back and got the biggest laugh of the night.
He ended the show shortly afterwards.
I'm not sorry, Douglas City, I went for a comedy show not a lecture.
I'm so pleased you had the last laugh.Iv'e only ever found him mildly funny when did that thing with the bloke with teeth.[can't remember the name of anything]
*_Sigh, My hero. I loath that man ..._*
@@Tara-zq3il my mother reffered to the that show exactly the same way, "when he did that thing with the bloke with the teeth" lol that's woman speak to a tee, only other women and some gay people speak that language. It's the same as when women say , "you know that thingy from that place we went to" and expect anyone to answer, but then to any blokes disbelief some other woman just knows exactly what and where. Literally two different languages.
It's Rob Beckett, and I think she show was Rob and romesh vs.
Also never change, I was not trying to mean I have always found that woman language very endearing.
Good comedians can take a roast. Christopher Titus once did a bit where he said that if you want to get into his head, sit in the front row, don't laugh, just occasionally sigh and slowly shake your head.
I cannot stand that uppity c**t. Hes not funny at all
Feminism was one of the first ways that "woke" infested our society.
Yes, international finance loves Feminism as it wants both parents working full time.
Which is exactly why I'm a woman who's not a feminist. There's a reason why kids do better with two parents, one of whom stays home with them, usually the woman. Then WWII gave business a taste of the cocaine of basically doubling the work force, and that's why Disney, Coke, and all the other giant businesses adore feminism.
Now tranny men have all the power. How ironic
@@zxyatiywariii8 Feminism wouldn't force you into the workplace, it just means you have a choice. It's why your husband can't physically punish you if he feels like it, it's why you can have a bank account, it's why you can own property, it's why you can't be made homeless and penniless with no access to your children. You can live in safety and comfort because women fought for you to have those rights.
You think married women didn't work before WWII? The poor ones did, they worked in the fields and they worked in the factories.
@@moondreams876 Feminism might be why YOUR husband wouldn't beat you, but most wives' husbands wouldn't beat them because LOVE.
The one female comedian that made me laugh was Lisa Lampanelli because her jokes were so aggressively offensive, but she left standup just as the woketivists started gaining power because I think she saw what was coming.
Yeah she was funny. But the joke was “This is so outrageously offensive it’s crossed into absurdity.” She got out while the gettin’ was good.
Lampanelli was not funny at all, listen to Andrew Dice Clay's comedy and you will realize that ugly piece of thieving bleeding garbage stole every bit Dice(real name Andrew Silversteen) ever did and gender reversed them.
Lisa wasn't even smart enough to come up with the idea on her own. she stole her whole concept from Kelly Caufield on the TV show "In Living Color" where she did a character called "Andrea Dice Clay" but at least Cauflield gave credit to the joke writer.
My brother and I reminisced about seeing a special of hers back in the early or mid 2000s and she slayed us. Cut to today she is full blown purple haird fem. The difference is huge.
She was essentially a female Dice Clay, minus the silly over-the-top character.
There are lots of really funny women. Not nearly as many as there are funny men, also no comics on par with the trueborn GOAT legends like Louie CK, Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr, or Chris Rock... and absolutely, positively NONE that are vocally feminist and even marginally funny (ironic "so-bad-it's-good" humor aside) let alone actually funny.
Women are only funny when they are making fun of other women. The only good line I ever heard a woman make in person was a waitress refusing to share tips with her manager because she loudly explained the manager had not done anything but run the register during the rush and doesn't deserve any of the pool. The manager proclaimed loudly for all to hear"Are you calling me Lazy?" and the waitress answered back "Yes , I am calling you LAZY! I will wait here while you go wash those off and draw on your surprised eyebrows!"
😂👍👏👏👏👏👏
...Dang. Someone's gonna need some aloe vera for that burn.
Goddamn that's fire.
Now that's funny.
I think that's more a result of seeing this disgusting trend of hating men for no reason other than they are men. So we associate any joke about men even ones which in a vaccum would be funny, to be un funny due to the woke cancer that is destroying civilization.
1) I'm a woman, and my favorite comedian is Jimmy Carr. 2) I used to work in restaurant kitchens. If you don't have a thick skin, don't work in kitchens in the US. My male co-workers and I swapped "offensive" jokes like trading cards. But if a female co-worker walked in, we'd have to go quiet. 3) To be fair, when she was doing stand-up comedy back in the 80s, Roseanne Barr was pretty funny.
she still is..her on joe rogan was good
I forgot about Roseanne, yes she was/is really good.
Forgot about Roseanne Barr. She is actually funny. One of the rare ones.
@cindybin2001 And? I can only think of 2 successful stand-up comedians who didn't ... Bill Cosby and Seinfeld. Go listen to dad jokes if you're offended by profanity.
@@Larry_Sycamore I get more hostile reactions from bad dad jokes than profanity.

Since Sandy Toksvig came up:
I really hate how they ruined QI. Not only is she a much duller host than Fry, but it is obvious that their quota system forces them to go for sub-par guests.
And I know that QI was always midwittery. But at least it was entertaining.
Sandy is gay.
She got the job after the previous gay man moved on.
Fry has gone down recently though. He's intelligent and quick witted in a geeky way but has no clue about nature or the meaning of things and why they happened.
Same with my disdain with the other Stephen,who wrote books for decades and was rather good at it, however he isn't very good at forming opinions at all.
I do wish some of these very talented people just shut up on their thoughts, especially when it isn't the "place" they came up in.
Toksvig isn't just lacking humour and charisma, she's a prickly charisma-blackhole. Actually annoying just to be in the presence of. But she made the right friends at the Beeb, so she gets regular work for 40 years.
And to round it off, people watch QI still because of the brandname, like zombie Simpsons.
They are both Oxbridge educated gits who are an idiots idea of an intellectual.
@@ComicGladiator Anyone remember Toksvig on the kids show, Number 73?
No, me neither.
That Hannah Gadsby special was rated 100% based on an a.i. driven binary system that looked at 49 reviews. Meaning most critics didn't watch it at all OR rate it.

“ I was raped” (said in a thick Australian accent). Comedy died right there.

Germaine Greer?
@@christopherkelley1664 No, Hannah Gadsby or whatever her name is.
Lately, the “highlight” of the German regular cabaret show “Nuhr im Ersten” (on our first public channel) has become an Austrian woman named Lisa Eckhart. She is genuinely funnier than most of the male comedians that get invited - and guess what: The German left has been trying to cancel her repeatedly. Because her jokes tend to come from an at least slightly right-wing perspective.
The main reason she is funny is just because of the weird analogies she comes up with that still somehow manage to hit the nail on the head. But she can only do that because she dares to venture into topics which most comedians, especially female ones, wouldn’t have the courage to talk about. For example, infamously, she made a joke about MeToo that played with the fact that a lot of people working in Hollywood are Jewish. So you can imagine the collective meltdown the German-speaking left (both in Germany and Austria) had over her. 😂
Impressive. May the Lord light her path and keep her safe from her myriad enemies.

Than I realized I was just saying "I will be very mean to you, and I will think it's funny". Not actually clever at all.
They don't joke, they mock and indulge in flippancy.
There's another reason men are funnier: the traditions of the bard, court poet, court jester, and related. Whatever he was called, he played a significant role. The jester was one of the few allowed to bring up certain truths because laughter made the truth go down easier. Traditionally, men who were good with words and storytelling were highly valued in society and we have inherited those values.
I came to the comments hoping someone would point this out!
These roles were so traditionally male roles, that even in the Middle Ages, part of the reason why Chaucer's "Wife of Bath" tale was so hilarious, was because it wasn't something anyone would expect a female pilgrim to talk about. That tale would be expected to be told by a man.
I wouldn't be surprised if even Denisovan and Neanderthal people -- when they gathered around the fire at evening meals -- also had more men telling stories and myths, than women. Stories which would help teach hunting techniques to the young boys, and inspire them to overcome the fear of fighting predators and protecting the tribe.
Many of the women would've been deeper inside the cave, nursing babies and/or trying to get toddlers to sleep; so there'd be more men around the fire telling stories.
Hell, in Mesoamerican tradition, clowns were/are powerful shamans in their own rights, often overseeing rituals and festivals. In many parts of Central America now, they still fulfill this role, entertaining crowds with juggling, acrobatics, comedy routines, and throwing fistfuls of candy to children.
And yeah, jesters _were_ actually respected in medieval and Renaissance Europe, because they provided valuable social services. Beyond entertainment, they acted as intermediaries between rulers and the common folk, often bringing important public concerns to a king's ear that his courtiers would either ignore or not want him to hear. More importantly, they functioned as naysayers and moral guides to rulers, frequently using their wit to cool tensions. Many a jester were renowned for the many lives they spared by quenching an angry monarchs wrath with comedy, reminding him of his responsibilities to rule justly, and not let his emotions cloud his judgement, _usually done in a way that was tailored to appeal to said ruler's sense of humor._ Jesters not only made people laugh and spoke uncomfortable truths, *they actually saved lives.*

There's a book called 'After the Ball.' It calls for using marketing techniques to make homosexuality acceptable. Just push it into everything, to reduce disgust reactions. Pause whenever there's a backlash, but never take a step back, and push back with even more extreme content; using the past transgressions as a precedent to justify their new extreme content.
I always feel like an anomaly as a woman when I watch this channel... I hardly find much in common with how my gender is supposedly meant to be with each video.

Men everywhere: Welcome to our world.
Women aren't that different from men on a basic level. the differences are mostly physical and psychological. But never actually anything that REALLY matters outside for a few specific kinds of things. for instance a man can never give birth or nurse a baby.
"side furthest from the door"
I'm just a US man with kids, so my experience is different than yours, but my wife tends to want the door side, so kids can have nightmares and seek comfort without disturbing me as much.
Same, also, incase of a home invasion she's a useful speedbump unit until I've sorted a plan.
I was taught that the man takes the side nearest the door for security... Always thought that was a given...
Surely it's just dependant on which of you gets up earliest?

I was drinking with mates and I said "I've got a funny story
Before I say it would you guys laugh if you saw someone fall out a wheel chair"
My mate bursts out laughing and is the only one of 7 people
He explains cause it was so out the blue
It was just a story of my cousin who got drunk at uni and ended up breaking his wheelchair on a night out ... he had people with him of course
It's a curious phenomenon. I'm a woman and whenever I say, "You decide", I add any potential disqualifiers. For instance,
BF: "What movie should we see?"
Me: "You decide, as long as it's not a chick flick and as long as I haven't already seen it."
Otherwise, "you decide" seems lazy and passive-aggressive.
Women saying "you choose" actually means "throw out a list of ideas for me to shoot down, until I hear one I decide I like."
My ex-wife and my current partner are two of the fiercest critics of women drivers you could ever meet.
@@levibull6063
Frankly, the whole premise is absurd. _How exactly does that happen?_ Does something tip the chair sideways, does the person in the chair slide out the front, or does a rip appear in the seat? The inherent physics of the wheelchair's design makes someone just falling out of it unlikely, and therefore strange in its own right. And such strangeness (to say nothing of the classic "comedy = tragedy + time" formulation) predisposes such a scenario to comedy.
On a similar note, I realize wheelchair basketball is an actual event at the Special Olympics (and mad respect to those who, through unfortunate circumstances, can only play that version), but on paper/in a vacuum, the premise sounds ridiculous. Who here can process such radically incongruous concepts mashed together, _and not laugh_ (at least the first time they hear it)?
Damn, that list of "greatest comedians to ever live" not including George Carlin was a bit painful.

This discussion reminds me of the 1989 book 'After the Ball," which was basically a roadmap for getting society to accept homosexual behavior by presenting it as inborn (though the book admitted that it's not) and "making it funny" using comedians and TV shows. This seems to be the same playbook.
I just looked it up.
$350 paper book for less than 100 pages.
Only a communist could think their ideas are worth over $3 per page.
Society will never accept homosexual behaviour as a concept, let alone a standard for how homosexuals actually behave!
They're just like anybody else is what they will say...
The evolutionary reason is that males compete for females and humour is attractive. Humour also gives them a hierarchy place in male circles without having to be an 'alpha'.
You raise a fantastic point.
Respect Dad jokes. They're more than likely responsible for you being here.
“In a recent study on driving, 65 percent of people stated that women are bad drivers as opposed to 35 percent who saw women as good drivers. Please note the percentages in this chart do not equal a 100%, that’s because this chart was made by a woman. For those angry at this joke, note that it was written by a woman. Now you don’t know what to do eh” -Norm Macdonal
Depends what you consider a good or bad driver. Crazy driving some would consider good, at least until a crash or pull over happens! 🤣That's how my dad drives. my mom drives safe as heck.
"i'm kidding, we don't hire women"
It also ties into my "natural selection of jokes" theory. Namely, that if a guy goes up to a random selection of people and tells a bad joke, he is highly likely to get honest feedback about how the joke is bad. Conversely, if a woman who is even moderately attractive goes up to a random selection of people and tells the same bad joke, there is a good chance she will NOT be told how bad it is. Some guys may even pretend that it's funny in the hopes of getting to be with her later.
Thus men become "funnier" because they are told the truth enough for their sense of humor to be honed and improved over a lifespan while women may not always experience this feedback mechanism.
Humor and Humility have the same root. One can laugh at themselves to the same degree they don't take themselves too serious. If I can laugh at jokes directed at myself, then I can laugh at anything. Life is tough. Learn to laugh and it eases the burden.
^This.
RIP Victoria Wood. One of the few truly funny female comedians.
Joan Rivers was funny as well.
Dinnerladies was absolutely brilliant.
I'd class the best female comedians as 'amusing.'
@@ComicGladiator I think slightly amusing would be better. I have yet to encounter one that made me crack up.
Absolutely. Also, French and Saunders in their earlier days.
Women: Can't be funny
Men: Can't afford not to be funny
Humor is 3 to 5 of these concepts following:
1. Cute
2. Cruel
3. Mundane
4. Bizarre
5. Clever
6. Taboo
If you only have one or two people might see the potential for humor but you rarely have anything more that mildly bemusing. At six and sometimes five, you come off as trying too hard.
I’d add ironic to the list.
As it is, your comment doesn't actually mean anything. Because all six of these have no definition. I could argue anything, even this very comment, contains exactly three of them.
That would just be a seventh "category" that doesn't actuallyean anything.
This is the problem with all "science of humor". Just like you cannot precisely define a tree without making a mess, you can only come up with vague barely coherent ideas to contain humor, or else you end up with a mess.

Very good segment, lads. Fittingly, there's some very good laughs to be had in this one. Mad just how big a gap there is between the critics and audience scores on Hannah Gadsby.
What do they gain by all giving it such positive reviews? It's also annoying seeing Hannah refuse to make self-deprecating humour.
Some of the best jokes make fun of ourselves and one of the best examples would be Rodney Dangerfield, who CONSTANTLY made fun of himself. What would his act even be if he never did that? How oversensitive would he have to be to be so unwilling to do that?
Poking fun at yourself? Who does something like that anyway?
She can't get no respect.
Rodney was great! It's harder for other people to be offended when you're making fun of yourself.
Might just be that she thinks she's perfect, and can't find any material because of it.
Back when I worked for a large corporation we had to take CBT'S and one of them explained that self-deprecating humor was not allowed. Forgot the exact reasoning. But needless to say the Karens in the group started turning people in for jokes. Haven't worked there in 5 yrs.
Male comics find humour in the world around them. With women comics their acts revolves around them, them, them.
An observation that makes me wonder how our species has survived this long if this is truly the norm for [birthing person] psychology.
Humor requires intelligence. The kind of intelligence that can see the kernel of truth and present it in a humorous way. Women are looking for an intelligent mate. Thus, being funny gives men an advantage. Women can be funny, but there is no driving force for them to be.
Not only that but like was said, it helps defuse tense situations. It's a trope in movies where a tense, potentially violent confrontation should ensue because someone insults another, but the intended target laughs and tension deflates.
Women haven't got the ability to self-criticise, nor can they laugh at their own faults. So invariably female comedy tends to be them criticising somebody, then laughing at that persons supposed shame.
There are 3 jokes that universally get a laugh. Men cross dressing. A person falling down a short flight of stares. Women hitting men with very large spoons.
I don't know about the first one mate.
Well at least somebody is gleaning some amusement from this travesty of a world. The fact that the drag clowns would get Hella offended at you for laughing just makes it funnier

One time my brother's ex's daughter started "organizing" my games. She wanted to order them by system and alphabet. I had them organized by series. So I had games across systems in order of release/timeline. For an example of how this looks, the Legacy of Kain series in proper order is: "Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain" on PS1, "Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver" on PS1, "Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 2" on PS2, "Legacy of Kain: Defiance" on PS2, and "Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen 2" on PS2. This gets worse with Metroid and Zelda series.

The unpredictability of audiences is a fascinating subject covered by Hellizer (Comedy Writing Secrets: Melvin Hellizer, first or second edition only) and his supporting papers have some fascinating insights (used to be online, dunno now, dude ran a class on writing jokes like he was teaching mechanical apprentices) about the weirdness of primed audiences.
The manga Showa Shoten (one of the characters is basically teenage Japanese Hellizer) explains this really well; people who watch a lot of comedy can be convinced to find humour in anything if you phrase it right. There is a reason why footage of open mics often looks like they know the people in the front row; they do. These are the easy marks placed there over and over by the proprietors.
One of the main weaknesses is that a lot of comedy requires Schtick, stage mannerisms. In the modern climate, you can’t act as something that you aren’t, hence why Romesh is an unfunny teacher with a racist chip on his shoulder in everything he appears in. Can you imagine the BBCs reaction if you delivered jokes differently to your normal behaviour? Oh wait, they effing dragged Dapper Laffs over the coals.
Not sure I buy the idea that jokes like “the best thing about having it with twenty one year olds” is going to normalise anything: serious men in lab coats found that it worked the opposite way with vanilla grape, to much feminist reeeeeing…

I wasn't laughing so hard for ages like hearing this :D
comedy was satire out of bad behavior
now it's satire out of rational behavior
Another evolutionary aspect of humour I've heard of, is that it is also a very good screening tool for us men when it comes to relying on other men. And part of the reason why we often take the piss out of each other(other than it is just fun ofc :p).
And I think this has some merit, considering the high tension and danger we have put ourselvs in for most of history, you need someone alongside you that can think clearly.
And everyone knows(guys atleast) that other guys that are not able to take a joke is a very clear indicator that they will cave under pressure, give into rage or have their head up their own ***, +++ negative traits. In general not someone that is trustworthy in a life or death situation.
On the flip side, being humourous and able to take a joke at your own expense shows many positive traits in a very efficient way and short ammount of time. So along with the other mentioned aspects, a good sense humour really does seem to be highly valuable trait for a man to have, and it makes a lot of sense why it would be selected for in our evolution.
I use it as a test too. If some moron thinks that making their friends suffer is funny then they are complete and utter dicks. "Can't you take a joke?", the standard justification of the abusive dick who goes ballistic if the "joke" were ever tried on them.
@@nerdyali4154 Very true, being an asshole and not being able to take a joke seem very correlated. And yes, just verbally abusing others is not being funny or taking the piss, its just being a shitty person. Any good man with a sembelance of emotional and social intelligence should know the difference.
@@AreEia Ehh "being an asshole" is usally just telling the truth to people. I agree with your statement beyond that though.
@@LanMandragon1720
Depends on the context, really. There are definitely situations where being an asshole is an asset, necessary even. But constant negativity, antisocial behavior, and backbiting is generally a bad idea in the long run, as it usually alienates one from one's peers. And in crisis situations, that greatly reduces the likelihood of alienated people from going out on a limb to help an asshole, or worse, take out the group's frustrations on said asshole if they do nothing to help/cause the problem/make things worse.
@@LanMandragon1720 Not sure I entirely agree. There are plenty of ways of being an asshole that has nothing to with "telling the truth", and plenty of ways of telling the truth that can be done without being an asshole.
"Its just a prank broh" for example, has become a meme because it is simply assholes trying to excuse shitty behaviour.
So there is certainly a sliding scale here ;)

Know what I find funny about comedies that "don't age well?" The fact that the same people who say that also say, "If (popular franchise) came out today, you'd consider it woke!" To that, I ask, "What's stopping us from calling it woke now?"
Exactly. I love dragon age origins but it has a bit of a modernist slant to it with some of the factions. The chantry portrayed as unjust or evil. The Qunari being seen as orderly and benevolent (especially in later games and a certain addon with a character.)
But it's still based enough that it doesn't distract
12:42 This seems true not just for comedy but for any media they consume, including anything from "fact checkers" or "the science".
I have a similar story to Connor's. I was at a party and this Jewish kid was telling a story about how he was in a bookstore in a Hasidic neighborhood. He, being Jewish but not particularly Jewish looking, was perusing the shelves and found a copy of Mein Kampf and started skimming through it when an old Hasidic man came in, saw what he was reading, looked at him with disgust, and walked out. He expressed his regret because he didn't get a chance to tell him that he of course doesn't support the ideas in the book and the man probably thought he wasn't Jewish because he doesn't look it and most Jewish people in that part of Brooklyn are Hasidic, so I said, "Yeah, you should probably wear some sort of symbol on your sleeve or something."

My mom did that a few years ago with the books. But had them in chronological order. They were old marvel and Star Wars novels. She decided that they weren’t in the way she wanted. I was so mad. Because I had to fix it. Wasn’t easy
It seems to really be a girl thing. I work in a school library and have student helpers. The books are on the shelf in call number order but imperfectly. They are also pulled to the front of the shelf. I constantly have to deal with girls who want to ‘tidy’ the shelves. Like push all the books right to the back, so that they are ‘even’ or sort them in rainbow colors. Both boys and girls are equally good (or bad) at putting books on the correct shelf, but only some girls take this extra step.
Female comedians all cover the following subjects. Female singers as well, all (mostly) sing about the following subjects: Romance, bedroom escapades, their 'certain' bodily organ, their bodies in general, heartbreak, complaining about something or someone, love (but usually only the romantic kind) and (to a lesser extent) substance abuse (usually in an encouraging or self congratulatory tone).
Hard to find a song by a female musician that doesn't touch on any of the above in some way. The same with comedians. On the other hand I can think of songs by male musicians that have got no reference to the above subjects quite easily.
What do you expect women are going to talk about?

Much like everything else, the Party's message must be inserted into every aspect of life. By using "humor" (in excessive quotation marks) to create a feeling of camaraderie and unity, they get people laughing at and accepting ideas that are neither funny nor palatable.
Video games, theatre, meme culture, animation, literature, culture, education, and more must speak the dark gospel.
@ 25:02 The 20th century comedienne Lucille Ball must have understood this as she basically employed that exact tactic in her own shows. The moments in which she was able to pull off making her routine look accidental or incidental (which was frequently), were her funniest routines. Of course it was all 100% intentional, but she was a master at making it look unintentional and the results kept her in the spotlight for decades.
The thing about feminists not being funny is that they are just gross people who are full of their own importance who push an agenda, and there's nothing funny about that. I agree that men are funnier by a mile so don't get me wrong, but there's a difference between women like Lucille Ball, Carol Burnet, etc., and Amy Schumer.
Women like Lucy and Carol understood that comedy is first and foremost about entertainment.
Some of their funniest material is also quite dark for their time, yet because they knew it was about entertaining people, they could make you laugh and squirm at a gag/skit in equal measure.
They were also more than happy to make themselves the butt of the gag, something most women aren't generally predisposed to.
The vast majority of today's female 'comics' are little more than narcissistic, loud, screechy, preachy activists.
@@HoratioFitzbastard Yes, I agree.
The other thing about Lucy and Carol and most comediennes of their time is that they were also very feminine about their comedy, which I don't see a lot of today. They weren't trying to be men - I mean why would they when the female experience definitely has it's moments, believe me, lol.
Today's women in comedy seem like they are trying to parody men the way that they go on about booze and sex (I could almost liken it to Dylan Mulvaney in a way, only from the other side). They seem to try to be attempting to turn the female experience into a single aspect of the male experience. I don't know, call me old fashioned but that doesn't strike me as funny when coming from a woman, it strikes me as unfortunate. The idea that other women may be influenced by it is equally sad.
@@katydidd6321 Back to your original point, these ladies knowing where most feminine humour originates from, then playing up to it, is the key ingredient that's missing from today's variant.

I think it's part that men are more likely to have the "funny gene", and part just that "greater male variability hypothesis" we all know -- but there are some funny women out there, it's just that among actually funny comedians it's gonna be at least a 20:1 ratio.

true story, i asked my friend "why do black people call each other by that girl's name?". he's black, so i was hoping he'd have the inside track. he didn't know what i was talking about, he said "what? what girl's name?". i said, "yeah that girl from that show in the 90's, 'friends', i think. black people are always like 'sup monica?', 'what's good, monica?'". his reaction was pretty great, we had a good laugh together.

Fart inappropriately. Works every time.
There are plenty of women who are funny in conversation but it seems rarer for them to be funny on stage or even in books or scripts for whatever reason.
The times that my wife makes me laugh are very rare, but one that still make me chuckle to this day:
“[name], come here! I need your wallet!”
I really have yet to see a funny female stand up comedian, the one exception being Maria Bamford but she's a weird acquired taste.
HOWEVER I think there are plenty of phenomenal female improvisers and comedic actresses. It makes sense too - stand up is a very humbling and solo affair, where you have to lead a whole crowd into the comedy by yourself and be willing to self depricate in a confident sort of way, which I think is difficult for women.
Improv, on the other hand, lends itself to working as a team and having a strong sense of where your teammates are going, you have to be adept at knowing when to act as a supporter, you have to vibe with the other improvisers emotionally... As such I've seen and heard women be whipsmart, witty and very entertaining in improv shows and podcasts.
But it just never lands in stand up. If you add feminism on top of that then it's doomed from the start.

This was hilarious. You need to check out George Burns and Gracie Allen. He was known as the funny one and she was the straight man. In later interviews he would say that she a great comedienne because being the straight man was so much harder.
Also, you guys do need to distinguish how sexes rank each other for casual contact vs long term relationships. Although women are attracted men who make them laugh, a man who continues to use that as his primary mode during a long term relationship is quite wearing. The movie “Mrs. Doubtfire” got that part right.
