He can throw out there that he's Asian all he likes, if he was funny it wouldn't matter, and I certainly don't have a problem with that aspect of him. Mel Brooks, Woody Allen, etc., were constantly "throwing out there" that they were Jewish, but they were genuinely funny.

Yeah that would be good if it was funny, but that seems to be a main bit from what I see. That and going AAAAH! in a sarcastic way.
Mel Brook is great.

Mel Brooks is awesome.

There was a programme on Brooks on BBC4 the other night, interviews with Alan Yentob. I thought he was nothing but annoying myself, I knocked it off after 10-15 mins.

That being said, Blazing Saddles is my favourite comedy.

I loved some other stuff of his when being a young lad, like Young Frankenstein and Spaceballs, but feel like Blazing Saddles aged the best.

[Carnage]

Young Frankenstein I came around to slowly, really enjoy it now. Spaceballs and The Producers I find terminally unfunny TBH.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

With you on Spaceballs but enjoyed The Producers last time I saw it (about 15 years ago though).

Anyone see the remake of The Producers? Uma Thurman, Mathew Brodrick and Nathan Lane?

I see an investigation has been launched because a homosexual flag was confiscated in Baku at the Euros. An investigation. Over a steward taking a flag off of a big mouth with two gallons of booze in him. Fuck off.

Was talking to a chap the other day and he was likening the current state of the rainbow movement to when Nirvana and Pearl Jam shirts went on sale in the likes of Penneys, as in that was when the movement was officially over. Now I'm not saying the Rainbow movement is as dead as grunge but it's the same slippery slope once it gets as corporate as it has. Major difference being that people were allowed to disagree over Grunge and didn't have to pretend they like it for fear of being tarred as some sort of Nazi. Anyhow, I thought it was an interesting point.

"a homosexual flag"

lol, what are you, 95? It was a rainbow flag, and I guess they're investigating whether it was confiscated in the same way any object could be confiscated from a drunken lout if they were causing a disturbance with it, or whether it was confiscated simply because it was a rainbow flag, in which case the stadium management would have to answer to UEFA since it was a UEFA event. Simple, basic, keep your hair on.

It could mean many different things when you say a rainbow flag. But it's all clear when saying a homosexual flag   

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

No, you've got that arse backwards. A rainbow flag is a flag composed of the colours of the rainbow. A homosexual flag could mean many different things. For example, a flag with this on it:

Maybe, but why is it headline news? It's a total non-event, but Azerbaijan is nominally a Muslim country so there's that, which of course wasn't mentioned by the BBC. The left loves a Muhommaden but it seems oblivious to the hatred the boys have for it. Strange bedfellows...

This Dutch asshole wants to kick Hungary out of the EU and invite Turkey, TURKEY in. If I was in the other side of the square cod/bratwurst debate, I know where I'd rather live.

Hungarian police are not very nice to Afghan I immigrants trying to sneak in from Serbia either. Naughty naughty, they'll be forced to regain their autonomy if they keep this non 'core values' carry on up for much longer.

I wonder would we get the same furore if someone took Davy Keogh's "Says Hello" flag? Probably not, but then the chances are it wouldn't be taken from him. I dunno, like live and let live and all that and the flag in itself isn't harming anybody.
