So many i didn't open any. Hahaha  :abbath: :abbath:

John Richardson. Nobody can find this man funny.  It's simply not possible. On a scale of one to Russell Howard,  he is Jarlath Regan.

Ah no, he's not that bad. He's more of a Neil Delamare. Someone who would be moderately entertaining if he was one of the lads and regailing everyone on a night out with some of his pithy remarks, but just doesn't hold up as a real comedian. Actually maybe I'm being a bit generous. Yeah, comedy has really slipped somewhat recently.

Don't get me fuckin started on Neil Delamere!

If you wanted the most unfunny cunt available you'd call him. He'd be great at funerals. Actually I'd probably call Jarlath first..how in the fuck can that lad have the gall to call himself a comedian?

Yeah, I must have been in an unusually charitable mood yesterday to have said that. How any of these guys have managed to forge a career out of comedy is beyond me, the criteria of which in this country seems to be the ability to tell a few moderately amusing anecdotes to Ray D'Arcy every so often.

Neil Delamare isn't even the worst of them though he's pretty shite. I find it to be a kind of safe comedy, HR comedy. Nothing too edgy. Loads of jokes about being married and what kind of a twatty, eejit of a husband I am. Middle class humour. Bland, awful stuff. The kind of comedy that people who ask you to please stop cursing when you've had a few drinks go to see.

Jon Richardson wasn't too bad on the panel show circuit, okay at riffing, but his stand-up is definitely below par.

Basically, if a British or Irish comedian isn't funnier than your funniest mate (who isn't a comedian), then they're going to seem shit and you'll be wondering how the hell they have a "career" in it. But you also have to say to yourself, "Jesus, Neil Delamere's group of mates must be the country's unfunniest group of mates if he's so much funnier than the rest of them, he thought he should do it for a living!"

Neil Delamere is a sneaky sneak.  He'll wait for someone funnier than him to say something funny and then jump on it and modify and regurgitate it.  Sneaky sneaky.

It is definitely in no way an easy gig. I know  a comedian called John Lynn, he's from Drogheda and he does a whole posh guy kind of act, in fairness he's fairly posh. He's a peer of Jarlath Regan and these lads. So when he started I remember he used be practicing at parties and stuff that I happened to be at and you'd be bent over roaring laughing at the stuff he was saying. Saw him live once and he knocked the ball out of the park, was flying, doing Edinburgh, on the BBC, Vicar Street, all sorts. Then a couple of years later you might see him on TV and it was like he had lost it, nothing funny, awful jokes, really, really poor stuff, bombing, he just disappeared off the map.  A strange career, all dependant on making people laugh, must take a lot of balls and be quite nerve wracking.

It would be incredibly difficult to do,  no doubt about it.  I still think that's no excuse for the 90% of unfunny crap that you see.  So many cliches getting recycled by so many boring twats, and worse,  being laughed at by thick cunts who are more than happy to laugh at the same joke over and over.  Is Trump thick? Really? Does he have a big orange face and a comb over? Really? Thanks,  I hadn't noticed that and the penny hadn't yet dropped in the past three years of every fucking comedian pointing it out at every given opportunity! Oh, your granny is from India and speaks like what exactly? How novel! What,  something about your period? How utterly outrageous! Just an endless stew of sameness.

I took my 2 child creatures to see secret life of pets 2 yesterday. It's what you expect. They enjoyed it. Here's the thing. Who are those 2 CUNTS from joe.ie that appear before films now giving a mini review of upcoming releases? They make an attempt at  being funny which can only be described as cancerous. It's vomit inducing and they peeve the fucking absolute shit out of me.
Also what's with all the ads for third level colleges?

I saw that before end game. I assume it's shitty 'humour' for the same people who watch the late late show and applaud its greatness then go stick on the wireless to listen to the local hurlin match!
