I love it when people bag Australia out, it's gold. We're so back to front. God damn it, that wiggle thing nearly killed me haha, I nearly spat drink out.
Always makes me think of the Simpsons Australia episode. Other countries wanted vengeance, vendetta reparations and lawsuits. Australians wanted a second episode.
im australian and i was pissing myself!!! dylan moran is so funny! people sometimes get offended by the things he said about australia but i didnt!!!! it was so funny! hehe thanks for putting it on!
We flew here, you know and with the children and everything who pressing the buttons and not sleeping and actually getting energy from the hatred they inspire in you on the plane. Great description, awesome comic!
+ Super Man - it's called Humour and yes, incredible as it may seem, people will actually pay to go and have a laugh At Their Own Expense.. (even, literally..) It used to be a universal human trait, the ability to do that - one of our best, IMO - but sadly (perhaps thanks to the internet..?) it's becoming an increasingly rare occurrence.. we all seem to take ourselves far too seriously these days, taking offence in circumstances where, with an iota of tolerance - and yes, a sense of humour - it would be clear, none was intended.. very sad. [Check out some of the Comments, here.. anywhere.. everywhere..] When it comes down to it, we're all just as absurd as each other.. being able to see, and laugh at, our own idiocies and foibles as much as everyone else's, just makes us more.. well, Human. If we can laugh at what we have in common, we can laugh, without malice, at what makes us different, too - instead of feeling the need to fight about it. (& kudos to TheDon101277 and COMMON SENSE (further up the thread) for eventually sorting out their difference of opinion in the way they did.. made a nice change to see that..!) Hope you (& everyone else, here) enjoyed the vid, anyway, Super Man.. Cheers, :) ;)
Nice one Rachel. All that saved me writing the same. The Internet gave dippos a voice that sadly can't be silenced. One day it will be all gone & they won't know what to do cos they won't have anyone to insult.
Andrew ~ I'd love to be able to disagree with you, re the internet.. but sadly, I can't; I try to keep it in perspective though, by reminding myself of all the great chats (& a few, satisfying arguments.. ;) lol..) I've had online, with folk I'd otherwise never have met - one of whom became my best mate. [Not telling you owt you don't already know, here..] The internet is really just a mirror held up, reflecting human nature: the whole spectrum, from the sublime to the ridiculous, to the downright evil... it's just that its very nature, magnifies & distorts, as if in a Hall of Mirrors.. Maybe the internet will indeed go the way of the telegram & the handwritten letter; maybe it - we - will be replaced, eventually, by brains uploaded at birth, each living out a 'virtual' existence, in which we each believe ourselves to be interacting with the rest of the world.. when in reality, we're just talking to myriad versions of ourselves.. who knows, eh..? All I know is, up to this point, human beings have Needed each other, for our very existence, survival and sanity, too; we've never been able - or indeed, Wanted - to get through life without other people to rely on, to care about, to laugh with.. maybe at some point, we'll start remembering that, eh..? (And in the meantime, here's to all the folk who bother to take a bit of time out of their day, to have a laugh with or send a 'thumbs up' reply to a total stranger, instead of insulting them..)
+Ahmad Uh this is Dylan we're talking about here. He's ALWAYS drunk. He always drinks his scotch or whiskey or whatever he drinks and he always has a cigarette in his hand.
+Mechanical Organism Designed Only For Killing I'm pretty sure If you live in Northern Island you'd be considered British or is this another thing iv'e made up in my head. Seems The older i get the more i find iv'e twisted things around or got the wrong end of the stick lol.
+irish rover et yes you can, there are thousands from the south with 350,000 with British citizenship in the south and thousands of them born in the south into Irish families that retained British or adore dual citizenship after 1922. Michael Gabon, Dublin born Actor and British citizen is one example. I was due to be born in cork, but alas was born on holiday on the Isle of Wight. If I had been born in cork, I would still retain British citizenship. We're very respectful of the Republics decisions and independence and we roar out Ireland's call arm in arm with you, we don't claim o be the majority, but we do exist.
I'm not sure how a ten year old vid came up in my suggested list but anyway I love Dylan Moran even when he's ragging on my own country. Black Books is the funniest thing ever if you've never seen it.
Why are people so upset, he's Irish not English. He tales the piss out of the English, the grown ups they can handle it. He takes the piss out of the Wiggles, also grown up, they can handle it. He take the piss out of Australian's, I can handle it, I do it every day. Lighten up people.
+MonkeyWhoWouldBeKing Haha google it. They're 'technically' a children's musical band but they're horrible demonic 'human beings' that won't just the tf up with their horrible 'music' and idiotic plastered smiles on their faces. They wear different, brightly coloured plain t-shirts and there's four of them. There was once a band who copied off The Wiggles but called themselves the Giggles and they went around for free and performed for sick children in hospital and when the Wiggles found out they sued these poor guys for 'copyright' or some other bs.
Love this bloke.Don't know how anyone can find him offensive.And let's face it,he was in Australia who's citizens in the main are a pretty tough crowd at these events.Yet they were all enjoying the 'craic'.I reckon that's a damn good indictment of his popularity.
O"oh yeah, it doesn't matter". Ok... I'm a citizen of the US and I love Australian humor and how they poke fun at the sir's who never left their homeland England. Great Britain is still very nice... lol., tired of my computer popping up stuff. Anyways, God Bless and there is but one king and I do like the English language.
Gee! I feel the same way about Texas. It's really an oven 9 months out of the year. I can't imagine why anyone willingly move before AC was invented. And yet I stay here.
@marmitesmate Oh my days is that his Yeah, Yeah tour I am so recluse I didn't hear abt it until he finished all his UK dates. I have to wait till the dvd in November. Bugger
You're entirely right. The Irish folk song 'Field of Athenry' beautifully illustrates your point: "By a lonely prison wall I heard a young girl calling 'Michael, they are taking you away For you stole Trevelyan's corn so our young might see the morn' Now the prison ship lies waiting in the bay.'"
Australian humour is mainly taking the piss out of ourselves, so, as an Australian, I found his immensely hilarious. Also, since it's all in the name of comedy, I hardly find it necessary to call it racist.
Also to add, this type of comedy is called Satire, something he is especially good at. (i.e. hes done it to Germany, England, America and the Irish to name some).
I think he's referring to those whom are credited with founding America, the history has been air-brushed to say they 'came fleeing religious persecution' when in fact they left Britain because they weren't allowed to force people into living their lives the way they wanted them to live.
That style always works for Billy Connolly. He once noted that he can't keep a script in a standup show because it doesn't work for him. But he will start telling a story, wander off on some random tangent, then come back to it later, all the while making you laugh
A children's entertainment group called The Wiggles. They are from Australia, BIG thing over here, they sing songs and make movies and kids go wild for it. Apparently his kids like The Wiggles, they can get a bit insufferable after a while. :)
some people here are taking this all too seriously. This was at the Melbourne COMEDY gala. It's meant to be funny. And if us Aussies cant take a simple joke, than we're no better than those humourless americans who curse anyone who takes the piss out of them. Australia is supposed to be a nation of relaxed, easy-going people who'd rather crack open a slab of beers rather than start som stupid civil war. Take a chill pill people and laugh; It's comedy! :D
@millertas They`re from Sydney ! Oh crap , are you saying those monstrosities are here now ?!?!? What state , what county ? They`re , like , nowhere near SoCal , right ? Right ?!?!?
Just the title to this video had me laughing. I had no idea about the content and I was just thinking 'English voice'. Well yes, he does have one of those. What, is that some kind of strange warning? Of course, now I know.
As a Australian , Dylan is Spot On . I Love him. He is Spot On.
He seriously deserves a medal! I love this man!
I love how he always seems like he's drunk on stage
He IS Irish.
That's because, for a while, he WAS always drunk on stage
"Seems" ❤
The one job where being drunk at work is allowed lol
@@jswaggart01 Have you seen the Australian Prime Ministership?
Hahaha! I was in tears watching that!
Dylan Moran, truly brilliant.
I love it when people bag Australia out, it's gold. We're so back to front.
God damn it, that wiggle thing nearly killed me haha, I nearly spat drink out.
Always makes me think of the Simpsons Australia episode.
Other countries wanted vengeance, vendetta reparations and lawsuits. Australians wanted a second episode.
I love Dylan Moran. Saw him in Cairns a few years back, it was the funniest night I'd ever been to. He's a fantastic comedian :)
I want to hear a conversation between Dylan Moran and Eddie Izzard.
he gets straight to the point i love this man deeply
im australian and i was pissing myself!!! dylan moran is so funny! people sometimes get offended by the things he said about australia but i didnt!!!! it was so funny! hehe thanks for putting it on!
watched this so many times, its still cracks me up haha
love this guy!!!!
no my god xD I LOVE THIS GUY. thank you dude. he's always been one of my irish heros xD yay yay yay
We flew here, you know and with the children and everything who pressing the buttons and not sleeping and actually getting energy from the hatred they inspire in you on the plane. Great description, awesome comic!
this guy is funny as fuck in black books
British colonialism explained; "here, have some beads .... i'll just have from where you're standing to the horizon!"
How can you tell that a plane full of Poms has landed in Australia?.... long after they shut the engines down, you can still hear a whining noise.
+Dallas Nyberg ROFL!
+Dallas Nyberg LMAO. xD
+Otto Von Skidmark It's an Australian name referring to anyone from Great Britain - anyone from America, we call them a Yank -
Dallas Nyberg
Yeah, as Dallas said. Love that joke Dallas btw. xD
Dallas Nyberg Irish people are Poms too?
I love how can go to any country and rip it to shreds verbally. Then get paid for doing it.

Now that I have Googled The Wiggles, I can safely say, "I have known 6 year olds that would want to kill a Wiggle"
Oh my god, I looked too. Kill it with fire!!!
I loved The Wiggles. They’re way better than Teletubbies
I'd kill the new ones, not so sure about the old ones tho because my sister would kill me
I love him.
I read that in Dylan's voice, and it was great.
Love Dylan, gotta be the best Irish comedian
Jimeoin.
I'M OFFENSIVE AND I FIND THIS AUSTRALIAN!!!
It makes more sense to say it that way anyways.
Mr. Gate4043 nope, makes perfect sense :]
this Bubbly Goodness is drunk again.
He is like the drunk uncle at Christmas!
He truly understands what it is to be Australian :D
This coming from a person who has lived in Australia for 11 years. ;P
Dylan Moran, I salute you sir!
Kill a "wiggle"? Did I hear that correctly?
balompie bueno whats a wiggle ?
jessie james I believe he's referring to The Wiggles (The children's musical group)
oh i see. thanks..hes so funny
If you kill one, you gain their powers of immortality.
Is he drunk or that's just his face?
+Ahmadov Khayat both
+Ahmad he's irish :P
+Ahmad NO HE'S JUST IRISH lol
(only joking u gotta love the irish)
+Ahmad Uh this is Dylan we're talking about here. He's ALWAYS drunk. He always drinks his scotch or whiskey or whatever he drinks and he always has a cigarette in his hand.
Both
I love how he says ''quick drink''. I also love the Australian audience for not taking it too seriously
After having discovered who the Wiggles were, I then went back and rewatched the last part. Moran is amazing XD
Uluru being a garden exhibit and wanting to kill a Wiggle...I laughed so hard!
Connected through EAv! Happy to be subscribed !!
The kids getting energy from the hatred they inspire in you. So funny because it's true.
i'm australian and i'm not offended! this bloke is great
gotta love Dylan.
As an Australian I thought this was absolutely hilarious and not the least bit offensive.
'I'm here to kill a Wiggle!'
Hahaha! Dylan Moran is awesome!
Australian's adopt the American lifestyle mainly I feel, but you adopt British humor. I want to live with you guys, best of both worlds....
Australian lifestye is not related to american, we dont have religion and are not so seperated politically.
1:54-2:25 I damn near pissed myself laughing...took me a few minutes to recover. That has to be one of the greatest jokes ever.
Lol at everyone thinking he's British
+Sláine McCool He is Irish, not British.
+Amber Ora who can miss that accent? and the name ..DYLAN ;MORAN!
+Mechanical Organism Designed Only For Killing I'm pretty sure If you live in Northern Island you'd be considered British or is this another thing iv'e made up in my head. Seems The older i get the more i find iv'e twisted things around or got the wrong end of the stick lol.

The British Isles includes Ireland. Britannia major and Britannia minor.
Haha you gotta live Dylan moran. Is he talking about the wiggles off childrens tv??
love that show :)
He's just done a tour. Got a new dvd out, Its called Yeah yeah
blunt, no shame, hilarious. This is how all comedians should present
Thanking you most kindly, ;-)
Thanks!

you have indeed stumbled in the right direction towards the guy who plays Bernerd from Black Books =)
im so confused. what's a wiggle?

just googled the wiggles, they look like the 'special' class from the Starfleet academy
I always remember him in the movie notting hill lol
O"oh yeah, it doesn't matter". Ok... I'm a citizen of the US and I love Australian humor and how they poke fun at the sir's who never left their homeland England. Great Britain is still very nice... lol., tired of my computer popping up stuff. Anyways, God Bless and there is but one king and I do like the English language.
and now charlie pickering!.....yeh no thanks
Aww, that's not fair. He's pretty funny.
He would have bombed after Moran. I almost felt sorry for Charlie, then I remembered he's a boring talentless hack.
Saw him last night in sydney, so freakin funny
"I don't think crucifixion would tickle a wiggle" bahahha
Gee! I feel the same way about Texas. It's really an oven 9 months out of the year. I can't imagine why anyone willingly move before AC was invented. And yet I stay here.
Yep that sums as us nicely lol. Fuckin love Dylan Moran
As Australian who hates this damn place, I kinda agree. I’m not built for this damn climate.
What's Dylan doing these days? There doesn't
seem to be any new videos of him..
dude, we make jokes about ourselves daily. its one of the main things of aussie humor.
Please explain, Mr. 'no recent activity' empty homepage person.
I love this guy!!!! :D
@marmitesmate Oh my days is that his Yeah, Yeah tour I am so recluse I didn't hear abt it until he finished all his UK dates. I have to wait till the dvd in November. Bugger

@lilywhitey89 He has been touring with his new show (I saw it last year). Not sure what else after that or whether he's still touring...
I stumbled across this video randomly.
Something hit me. Is this.. (please) the guy from black books?
This is funny. Then again when you live in the UK all you really have is humor. I mean seriously who the fuck would actually want to live there.
He's irish
Josh Hardy
Northern Ireland is part of the UK...
MrSporkster Dylan Morans from Ireland, not Northern Ireland.
Lukey J
I think you mean 'The Irish Republic.' The entire island is Ireland. But thank you for the correction about Moran's origins. :)
Fuck knows, I know I don't and i'm from England
He recently did a gig in Russia, there was an article on it on the BBC website.
Australian humour is mainly taking the piss out of ourselves, so, as an Australian, I found his immensely hilarious. Also, since it's all in the name of comedy, I hardly find it necessary to call it racist.

Ahh, thank you :)
What is a "wiggle"???
missdarkeyes its an australian tv show.
A fucking national treasure! 😁
it was good like playschool but then it got bad
HERE HERE! the only irish man alive who can kill a wiggle and not be considered disturbed :)
I think he's referring to those whom are credited with founding America, the history has been air-brushed to say they 'came fleeing religious persecution' when in fact they left Britain because they weren't allowed to force people into living their lives the way they wanted them to live.
Australians are what he said.
I saw him on the plane on his way here! O.o
sometimes the best comedy is when it is so disconnected and random and maybe this is it?
That style always works for Billy Connolly. He once noted that he can't keep a script in a standup show because it doesn't work for him. But he will start telling a story, wander off on some random tangent, then come back to it later, all the while making you laugh
haha I agree. I think its just that us Aussies have a different sense of humor. it cracks me up when i hear comedians dissing australia.
Didn't Dara O'Briain do the same thing about the English and the Irish, or am I just confused?
He's adorable! (And funny...)
what animal is he talking about in 2.53 ?????
A wiggle isn't an animal, it's a person. The Wiggles are a children's entertainment group.
ohhh ... :)
but which wiggle would you kill?
sorry where are you from
Yes!
Hi, what's a wiggle?
A children's entertainment group called The Wiggles. They are from Australia, BIG thing over here, they sing songs and make movies and kids go wild for it. Apparently his kids like The Wiggles, they can get a bit insufferable after a while. :)
