Is he supposed to be funny?

Not as funny as the town of Danbury.

He lost his mind because they beat him at his own game. Their response was way funnier than his initial attack, and he can't top it.

And to add another twist to this. The City of San Francisco had a ballot initiative, submitted by city voters, to rename their sewage plant to the George W. Bush sewage plant many years ago. The measure failed, but the thought was the same: name the poop plant after someone you don't like.

As always, it's ok when libs do it, but not us.

I'd also vote for that, GWB was a shitty president.

We should go further with this and, I dunno, put up a disambiguation page for John Oliver - "did you mean the comedian or the sewage plant?"

And maybe add a controversy section about him offering to beat up children.

That mayor had much better timing and delivery, to be sure. Oliver is one of those "comedians" that made his career taking potshots against strawmen of conservatives isn't he?

There is an old 4chan post that comes around from time to time that discussed how their "comedy" fast talk is all just a method of conditioning since it completely circumvents deeper thought. They are "comedians" in name only.

He's like the Jeff Foxworthy of british people: if he didn't have a thick accent and made jokes about "where he was from" he'd be about as useful as condoms to the lgb community.

I am sorry but I'm going to have to steal it acquire necessary supplies for a peacefully protest.

I mean logically if you don't need cops to prevent crime, surely you don't need condoms to prevent STD's. Just assume that everyone is going to tell the truth on things, and only bring in a social worker if things become out of control.

Hey, Jeff Foxworthy has some pretty decent jokes

IamM -6 points ago +3 / -9

His show was okay, but he spawned an entire "lineage" of bad comedians (Bill Engvall, Larry the Cable Guy, Ron White even though some of his shit on drinking isn't bad). You could argue that because he was responsible for them, he's also by proxy responsible for their jokes too.

Okay fuck you. Ron White was a big name in comedy long before anyone knew who Foxworthy was. And Ron is fucking hillarious.

Bill Engvall is a solid B, Ron White is a B+ on a good day, and Larry the Cable Guy is also a person who exists.

Boooooo, I love Larry the Cable Guy.

Yeah, like a lot of the comedians and celebrities we've exported. Somehow they manage to do well in the US...

I mean hey, at least a cock-flavored lollipop can be useful at a bachelorette party.

Now his bank is full of American money and he wants to stick it to us. Stop immigration now.

One of them is unfunny, British, and completely unafraid to ask difficult questions. The other is unfunny and British.

I binge watching Community right now. The episodes with him in are decidedly not funny.

Why wouldn't he? Super high payoff for low effort "artsy" bullshit.

I would totally do the same or worse if I could.

Just goes to show that to be a rapper the only skill you need is to be black and to want to be a rapper.
