This is clearly not British humour....BORING. :zzz:

Hm. We had almost tears in the eyes here, laughing.

Let's call it humour for the advanced, then. :D

Well. I never had a single laugh for Fawlty Towers and stopped watching it soon due to boredom, I could not connect it in any way to the humour the same makers showed in Monthy Python episodes, so... c'est la vie... http://www.smileygarden.de/smilie/Fragend/41.gif

Yeah, I would agree.

Watch Lisa Lampanelli on Youtube if you like shock comedy.

Edit: Samurai navy, eh? mkay.

It was very offensive yes, But honestly It made sense. Almost every female comedian I have seen is emulating man's humor

It seems to me that you guys have COMPLETELY missed the subtelty in Hitchen's comment. And that it was a reply in a greater context deriving from a distance-"duel" between him and certain others.

That is not meant serious, and never was, and as far as I know also was not answered in a blood-serious meaning by any of the mentioned ladies.

He was extremely humorous and did not take any of what he said serious - just played the joke over two or three cushions. Compared to the dryness of his joking, the desert is a moist if not even wet place. ;)

Just look at his face, and the very subtle mimic, especially that which is almost not there! Almost... I am sure he struggled hard not to laugh out loud and spoil it all.

Boy, his whole reasoning on why from a point of evolution women do not even need to be funny, is a joke! The whole clip is! Must I poke a telephone pole into your eyes to raise your attention? :D He is pulling your legs, and their legs - and you all fall for it! :haha:

Well, as I said: humour for the advanced. :D

Rule #1 of comedy, if you have to explain it it ain't comedy.

Yeah, not to mention, we're not "advanced" enough:hmmm:

Okay, note to myself: in the future only jokes of sitcom niveau, delivered with a sledgehammer or a hydraulic ram. No subtelties and nothing that stresses awareness beyond early wake-up point. Collapsing buildings or exploding cars would be helpful to hold listener's attention.

There you go again, subtly suggesting the rest of us are beneath you. Why, Sky, why? :-?
