Thing is, it's a true quote from a cook islander I met here. He said. In the islands we go pig hunting, and if the dog doesn't catch the pig, we eat the dog. It's a cultural thing. Like eating bugs... President Bush shoots his own hunting dog after an unsuccessful hunting trip. When reporters asked why he would do such a thing, the President stated........ When we returned to the car I turned around and the dog wasn't with us. If you're not with us, you're against us. By the way where were you when we was huntin? Hey Dick, hand me my gun again. When reporters asked why he would do such a thing, the President stated........ Dang thing misfired, I knew I should never have used a gun made by (competitors name here), can we get a close up of a real gun? When reporters asked why he would do such a thing, the President stated........ Why, hell son, everybody knows reptiles hate dogs. | ||

| Understanding | Re: Science experiment - is everything funny? Let's make it a bit different, political stuff is difficult as, for me anyway, it's so boring. New idiots doing the same old turkey dance... Black comedy is supposed to be the hardest, and the topic matter makes it obvious why. Disaster, murder, rape. Not funny subjects at all. Another comic and I took it as a personal challenge to make a funny rape joke, sick I know, but we were both bored and trying to push the limit. The subject's just not funny, unless the attacker is wearing a gorilla suit in a Jim Carey movie. The other guy did make it funny once, he wore a stack hat and dressed funny - somehow the character could get a laugh from saying the line - rape, is it funny or isn't it?.. priceless, you had to be there I guess. So it has been made 'funny', and then repeated ad nauseum with animal rape in teeny flicks that are meant to be comedy (comedy for the retarded, it's a new pc way to include them) Now that we know that subject can possibly be 'funny', we can tactfully sidestep it and concentrate on other black comedy subject matter. DISASTER! TERRORISM! MURDER! POVERTY! DISEASE! Is everything funny? I did this gig in Iraq some guy jumps up, yells out "you suck!" then blows himself up. Last time I do a gig in a cave. - NZ Comic, Brendhan Lovegrove. (also the legend who did the rape line and made it funny) A planeload of lesbians crashed into the Andes and tried to survive by having to eating each other. Imagine that... lesbians eating each other. But they all died, as they couldn't chew through the dungarees. - NZ Comic, Paul Ego. Time to get a glass of wine and see if I can find examples or make some up for the other subjects. We got a comedy festival coming up ooo goodie! I'ma gonna go to like 20 shows! | |

| Understanding | Re: Science experiment - is everything funny? Posts went up fast - haven't heard the worst or dirtiest joke, am about to... Don't think I have. I could probably compete. 95% ish of new comics do gross out and sex material till they realise all the other amateurs are doing the same and the pros talk about things other than getting laid unless you're Andrew Dice Clay - worse comeback in the history of stand up, he has lost it. Not a chip, the whole damn potato on his shoulder. According to Wikipedia, ADC is a 'blue comic'. Got sidetracked by a street party last night so I got to drink plenty wine and write 0 funnies. What stone's unturned.... POVERTY! - We were poor, my father asked me what I wanted for Christmas I said, "something to wear, and something to play with". He gave me a pair of shorts with the pockets cut out. - Billy T James - NZ Legend. MURDER! - Why is it so hard to solve a redneck murder? 1. All the DNA is the same. 2. There are no dental records. - unknown. DISEASE! - The difference between herpes and love is that herpes last forever - unknown. As you can see I'm not pushing myself to write on these subjects, I'm hungover, alcohol can swing both ways with creativity, it's only real creative use in moderation, or with extreme sickness the next day for writing morbid stuff. I'm not sick, but I'm not very bright. It's Easter! Hmmm And Jesus did go into the house with a women of ill repute and was there for an interminably long time. The screams and gasps could be heard from all on the street. "He casts out demons" said a follower "Yes, they all replied" as the noises continued. Jesus did stay and minister to the women twice through the passing of the sun. And on the 3rd day, he rose again. Last edited by Ahmabeliever; 03-20-2008 at 11:37 AM. | |

| Creating | Re: Science experiment - is everything funny? The documentary on the aristocrat joke shows that this joke was just told between comedians. What is interesting is that they would tell the joke to each other making it up any way they could, and to make it as offensive as possible. They felt that it was a cathartic exercise, and a comment on the balance between what is offensive and what is humorous. The context of Gilbert Godfre’s using the joke was a response to making a 911 joke that got some groans. Instead of backing down he jumped the fence and told the aristocrat joke. That took balls, and in the context of the telling made for a milestone in comedic history. He is now held by his peers a real hero for pulling off a joke that until then was considered taboo and off limit to a public performance. ---------------- I do not know what I seem to the world, but to myself I appear to have been like a boy playing upon the seashore and diverting myself by now and then finding a smoother pebble or prettier shell than ordinary, while the great ocean of truth lay before me all undiscovered. - Sir Isaac Newton | |
