Yeah, and its nowt to do with right/left either. There are a fair few conservative minded comics who are bloody hilarious* and a few heart on sleeve socialist ones who are as dull as dishwater .** And I've had and got ancient relatives who make me look like Boris Johnson in comparison in their politics! *To name but a few - Kenneth Williams, Kenny Everett, Alan Coren, Tommy Cooper iirc. ** Most of the alternate comics from the 80s who weren't Rik Mayall/Ade or Alexei Sayle but both are my own subjective view of course... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was just a question, which of course I regret asking as you’ve clearly only two brain cells, both of which are fighting for third place. But as a heads up, old people can be ‘woke’, just as young people can be ‘gammons’. Ian McKellen and Darren Grimes are respective examples of this. Who? Those are small "examples", and what's more .. - you're spamming me with so many posts, none of which carry any real weight, as an act of panic. You don't want people to read my original post where I pointed out SJWs are a cult. You want people to focus on you going "ARE YOU SERIOUSLY SAYING" etc etc...... I didn't even address you I talked about the user time.

Apu is a man with a steady job and a hot wife and responsibly raises 8 kids (that's the boring part, did I mention his Indian wife is hot) how is that supposed to be a bad role model or insult to anyone.

time 8,596 Posted April 20, 2021 5 hours ago, MoneySavingExpt said: Yes, when he posted that tweet. You say you 'remember when he was funny'. That's only because his 70s work hasn't been "cancelled" yet. By next week it could be, and then you'd be lynched for sounding like you admired it! What you said is a really snide remark in an attempt to suck up to SJW loonies, to make yourself feel younger (just like the emaciated show The Simpsons is doing) Both are embarrassing. I don't think you understand how rapidly the ground shifts in such cults. Quicksand (with landmines in it) is no place for someone your age. You are absolutely right, quicksand (with or without landmines in it) is no place for someone my age. nor, I'd venture to suggest your age. I remember not long ago saying thatthere is very little that is intrinsically funny (somewhere on the forum), so I suppose I should have said that I remember a time when I found John Cleese funny. Veiled racism isn't funny, though there may well have been a time when I did find it so. I have matured, Cleese evidently hasn't. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your limited life experiences* make your opinions so poor and therefore irrelevant. Obviously, the problem with mouldy old people is they are just as hard to cut through as out of date cheese/bread etc... just cause youve got a tough exterior isnt a guarantee of quality inside. *Your CV again: -Left university -Joined BBC (probably) -Spent rest of life shaking fist and saying "STUPID AMERICANS!" 1 hour ago, time said: Veiled racism isn't funny, What's "veiled racism". Is that like racist brides spurning their groom at the altar cause they only just noticed he's black or something? Oh wait it's another of those new variations on "racist" like Alt right, nativism, etc... cause people got so, so, incredibly bored of "racist". There was absolutely nothing racist about Cleese's tweet. And you definitely meant what you said the first time, you were trying to dig at a person for making fun of leftist insanity. 1 hour ago, time said: there is very little that is intrinsically funny So by your own admission then, the chances are very low then that the "laughy face" you opened with was anything other than a forced laugh thrown out as a defense mechanism. Cause you usually laugh so little. Or it was an allergic reaction to the rare event of someone bothering to actually respond to/examine your thoughts on any real issue. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
