    When he started out, he suffered from mild stage fright. One evening, circumstances had him performing without shoes and he discovered it made him feel more comfortable on stage. And, let's face it, he's a comedian.

      Calling him a comedian is an insult. He a brilliant artist with a gifted mind. He ain’t up there for 90min do in g 1 liners. Comics make you laugh when good. Those who are above that make you think

      @@troystewart7730 Tony, your admiration of Tim is commendable but I can do without the hyperbole.
      Someone who performs with the intent to make their audience laugh is a comedian. Tim might even be a great comedian but don't give me that "calling him a comedian is an insult" crap.
      He is what he is. How good he is at it is another matter.

    Number 1: dark humour is the BEST.
    Number 2: how again is that song sexist? I mean he did say that he loves her a lot and that love is built on by empathy and shared experience. Isn't that what love is rather than destiny pulled me to you?
    Number 3: to quote the man "it's obviously a song about maths"

  • @bonia15
    @bonia15 12 років тому +12

    having a sense of humor about everything is good, it means he's coping, that he moved on, it means he's not hiding what happened under the carpet, bottling it all up and scaring himself for life.
    humor is one of the greatest coping mechanisms we have.

    He's totally right about the creepy breathing. The first time I was put in charge of babysitting, this little girl was just snoozing happily with her head turned halfway around like the exorcist and blowing spit bubbles as she snored and gurgled like a bathtub draining, I was just standing over her stroller looking horrified and thinking "Fuck what if it dies, what if they blame me, what if she really is possessed, how could I live with myself?!"

    Oh that is grand. I totally had that same thought when my daughter first stopped being the thing that woke us up in the moring. After a few days of waking her up by looking at her, I had to retrain myself by thinking, "fine, if she is dead, then I might as well do the dishes, since I sure won't be doing them after I find out..." etc... it helped me get things done, and it helped her get the sleep she needed.

      I think from her interpretation, it was a lot like the "I hate my wife" memes. People not valuing their partners, yet expecting them to stay and be a good and faithful. The fundamental thing she was missing is that he clearly does value her, he's just mocking the idea that there's only one person you should be with.
