his poem "Me Ward" belongs in a fucking smithsonian collection

  Quote

Me Ward

 

Me, a Chinese fella and an old bloke,

Who looked like Mr Burns from 'The Simpsons',

Don't know what was wrong with him,

But breaking wind was the symptoms.

No one visited him or called him.

He seemed quite lost to me.

As well as wind problems,

He had a colostomy.

When I left,

I said "see ya" to the old man.

Turned out the other fella wasn't Chinese,

He was from Japan.

I never found out what was up with him.

I've never liked Pilkington. Nor do I suspect has anyone else. He's an enigma.

Close thread.

I own one of his books. It's great, but I think if I had never heard his voice before, it wouldn't be nearly as good.

its 2008, i've got slugs in me pipes

best moment of 2006?

 

"saw a grub eating a bit of biscuit"

"and he was saying to himself 'ahhhh, a biscuuuiiiittt!'"

Rome wasn't built in a day,

It just looks that way.

In 1905 Einstein

Came up with E = mc squared

Yet in 2008 British Gas

Still can’t get my boiler repaired

Archimedes said “Eureka!”

With no hot water … I reeka!

not a fan

He wrote the lords prayer apparently.

I know what his face looks like now. It looks like both his parents were dead when they conceived him.

"I've got biscuiiiiiiit!"

"Ages ago, only bibismen... busibmen.... businessmen... had drinkin' an' that"

"What's a man-moth?"

"In the future, you'll be able to wake up and have a chat with a yoghurt"

The think that makes those poscasts great is Rickies pig squealing laughter every time Karl opens his mouth.

Yeah what I find frustrating is that if I listen to any of them individually I don't find them funny. Karl by himself isn't that funny cos most of what he says isn't so obviously rediculous until Ricky or Steve points it out. I've always thought Ricky Gervais' stand up is terrible and he always comes across as being arrogant. And Steve's show is just... boring (admittedly I only listened to a couple of them, dunno if it got better).

Put all three together, and I can't get enough of them. Literally. I listen to them more than I listen to music now. I've listened to all the podcasts and radio shows so many many times now. I can't do that with any other comedy.

Really? I don't get the appeal then. I've listened to a few of these podcasts and I find them excruciating. Pilkington's never said anything remotely amusing and it seems like Gervais tries to make funny comments but really he's just pointing out that Pilkington said something slightly zany.

where he said some monkeys got all their bananas nicked from some other monkeys who were 'from a rough part of the jungle'

hmmm what i think might be happening there is that you've got a different sense of humour to the people who like them.

I wouldn't agree with that though, the people I know who've recommended it have a pretty similar taste in comedy. I guess it's just lost on me and I kind of hate that.

Also: These people all said something like "You'd love Karl Pilkington, his sense of humour is like yours!" I disagree.

Its even better.

yeah i thought the first three podcasts i listened to were terrible.

Obel I would recommend listening to the first time Karl keeps a diary, episode 8 of the first series I think. It got me totally hooked, it's brilliant.

This whole segment completely killed me first time I heard it.

Just been into the zoo, 'avin a look round an that. Went into the, er, into the aquarium. Mental, the amount of fish that are knockin' about.

[on bike safety] Some people are just meant to die. Fella down the road got hit by a truck. You see, he had a helmet, but his head come off!

[on gay porn magazines] I don't get it. They're filled with pictures of just knob, nothin' else. Why can't they just have a look at their own?
