      Same here. Mum while in hospital never lost her wits. The doc would watch her take 45 minutes to walk down the hallway to go out for a smoke. The doc was like, you should give up it's not helping. Pause, she looks up expressionless, well tell you what doc, I'll make you a deal. If you can make the chemo better by making my hair fall out where I don't want hair, then I'll give up. RIP mum, spirited to the end, exactly how she brought us up.

    I like the fact that both Jimmy Carr and Frankie Boyle both didn't simply rely on shocking humor alone. Jimmy presented the audience with the "it's a social experiment" approach, while Frankie made it a point to say, "if you're coming to my show, you damn well know what you're in for...and it certainly isn't socially-appropriate!"

    • @FlyingFox86
      @FlyingFox86 Рік тому +10

      It's true that Jimmy has often presented his comedy as a bit of an experiment, to see how far he can go with an audience. But I think that is itself a joke, he's not really trying to test people's limits, he's just trying to make them laugh.
      I've heard him describe how all jokes work. It's two stories, one is the story the audience thinks you are telling, the other is the story you are actually telling. The comedy comes from the moment that the audience realizes that story one is actually story two.
      I don't think that description applies to all jokes, but it definitely applies to Jimmy's jokes. The offensiveness is just how he personally flavours this type of joke. The first story is innocent, while the second story is disturbing and offensive, and that contrast adds to the humor.

    I’m a British ex-pat living in Canada and saw Jimmy Carr on tour here this summer. He sold out 2 shows and I assumed the audience would be mostly us Brits but it wasn’t. At the end of the performance he did a bit with texts sent to him from the audience. One of them was from someone whose dad had bought their tickets but died 2 weeks before the show. Jimmy dedicated the show to their dad. The guy is a class act in every sense.

He never really did much beyond the typical UK comedy circuit from my recollection.

      Old school Jim Jeffries was similar, before he became Jim Jefferies. I met him once when I was drunk and he was doing a gig in a really small town with a crowd of about 90 people, just before he was doing a Glasgow gig. Middle of December and I don't blame him for seeming pretty miserable. He did a damned good performance despite that. Anyway, during the intermission I went out for a fag and he asked if there was anywhere he could get a good curry. I told him a place and said I don't know how good the curry is, but it only just opened 2 weeks ago so you shouldn't get food poisoning. I thought it was quite witty at the time :P

      That's a cop-out. It's basically "the coward's defense", ie. saying something provocative and then deciding whether you "meant" it after-the-fact based on how your audience responds. Little wonder that Gervais vanished like a fart in the breeze with such a lazy approach to his own work.

    • @FlyingFox86
      @FlyingFox86 Рік тому +1

      @@michaelccozens It can be a cop-out, but I think it can be a legitimate defense depending on the context. Jimmy Carr has a pretty easy time defending his jokes as "just jokes" because of the nature of his stand-up. Many comics will do observational stuff, making a serious point in a funny way. When Ricky Gervais does an entire routine mocking a bible story, he obviously thinks the story really is ridiculous. He's making a real point in a funny way.
      But Jimmy Carr just tells a bunch of individual jokes, nearly all of them offensive. At no point do you get the idea that he means any of them on any level. Then again, if it turns out that Jimmy really is a child molester and murderer with a tiny penis whose girlfriend is an Asian girl he bought of her father, I may have to re-evaluate.

    Jimmy Carr (excepting the whole tax avoidance stuff) is apparently our hardest working comedian. From what I understand he almost never stops doing standup between the TV series he did/does. Some people never really got that Frankie Boyle was always pretty liberal, and maybe he's just got older and not wanted the hassle that comes with the kind of offensive material he used to do, but I honestly think a lot of it had to do with him being kicked off Mock The Week for saying the Queen's pussy was haunted (which was hilarious).

    People who say they are offended are just trying to make it look like they are sensitive and caring to others needs.
    Might have said this before, but years ago I booked to see Jimmy Carr and a female friend of mine said she would never see him again as he makes pedo jokes, and that just is not funny.
    My answer to her was "Well why have you booked to see Frankie Boyle then?"
