RIP Winsor Davies

Oh dear!

"I love a sweeping statement," without foundation.

There's always one.

We're talking about comedy here, not something that interests you?

Move on.

 

I'm sorry freddy, but I just dont find that kind of, rambling on, funny.
I could come up with a conversation like that at work, it lacks timing or any of the things I find funny, admittedly the audience are falling around laughing, but to my mind they have to be on different medication to me.

 

Feeling a tad uncomfortable, Dog?

I'll leave it there as I know from the POV board it will be a circular argument.

 

Watch that video I posted

 

I get where you’re coming from

 

What part of "Move on" did you not understand?

You had your personal pop at me in the first place, I hadn't had a go at you had I? I just responded to your unfriendly post.
You obviously didn't like it.

Or do you want it both ways?

 

You should do a tour!

 

I said I was leaving it. What more do you want? And it wasn't a pop at you, it was a pop at what you said. Obviously it touched a nerve which I didn't know it would. Can we leave it now?

 

Oh @pete , “timing”? You do realise it’s ad-lib? Made-up on the spot? ‘It Ain’t Half Hot Mum’ will have been rehearsed.

 

Comedy these days seem sometimes to be going to hell in a hand cart.

I used to like Billy Connolly when he was younger. But for me he got less amusing and used more offensive language as he got older.

I like Nina Conte. So apparently do more than a million others like just this one performance. Amusing, witty and so inoffensive.

What's the difference?

Excuses.

 

Come on now folks, let’s not get carried away

 

Alright whatever, Dog. If you really can't see the difference, this is pointless. For the third time, can we leave it there? Actually no, I forget. You do love the last word so fill your boots.

 

Well it might have been made up on the spot, which is what I mean, just a silly conversation that is basically only funny to those taking part, just like ordinary people have.
Dont they?

Rehearsed comedy is difficult to get right and often they dont get it right these days.

Not saying they always did, programmes like On the Busses, as has been mentioned, was so bad you could see each silly joke coming about 5 mins before it happened.

But the day of the stand up comedian have gone.
Lets face it, a joke needs a butt, and your not allowed to make anyone the butt of a joke these days, unless of course in real life, and then it happens all the time.

 

Actually don't you think I'm entitled to the last word seeing as how you had the first?

You can have any opinion you like on any subject, why should I care?
It's slagging off mine when expressing yours because you didn't like it which is "out of order."

It's you being unable to see the difference, which is "pointless."
