British humor

[Ivor Windybottom]

You can laugh at the bad spelling.

I see a man trying to be funny, but I can watch him without cracking a smile. There's nothing clever or sophisticated about his jokes.

Your analysis is...

Non-lefty = wacist = shut down anyone I don't agree with

Wrong thread.

I never said he should be shut down.

I'm just questioning why he should be considered a comedian.

Here's my analysis of his jokes.
First joke. 'there's too many p***s in London'

Second joke. 'we should bomb all the Muslim countries'

It's just right wing idiot speak expanded into (an excuse for) a comedy routine.

Deluks, I agree with you, that is not funny.

((But it is true).

Utter rubbish.

He does some really clever ****-taking, mostly of people with your sort of attitude.

Here's a recent example of his news coverage...

Try watching, find the racism. It would be interesting to hear what you think he says that's offensive. I don't think I've ever heard any war-mongering from him, more likely the opposite. He speaks far more logical sense than any BBC newsreader.

Never heard of him.

You won't have, in your echo chamber.

Found it.

This is not comedy, he just rants and moans. What a bore!

Julie Burchill on why Britain's regime comedians are not funny...

Why modern ‘comedians’ like Romesh Ranganathan aren’t funny

Of course, most of the over-promoted drolls are male, on both radio and television. It’s lovely to see them fail

I can see why Ivor is fond of him.

He does ranty moany news coverage with some witty sarcasm AND he also does stand-up comedy. Which includes some news coverage.

I find his attitude refreshing, and reassuring that I'm not the only one thinking that those in charge of our country and media generally spout toxic *******s.
