Jimmy Carr

Post by RoscommonGooner »

I know he has a few fans here but has he gone too far with this one?

The guy is about as funny as cancer. As for the poor taste jokes, I think they are down to ignorance more than anything else.
As a father of a young baby with Downes Syndrome, I have myself changed my pre-conceived ideas surrounding disabilities, and tbh am ashamed of what I was before little Donal came into our lives.

Like Gervais these guy is a egocentric prick who can only get a laugh by mocking others. No thought or intelligence to his humour just simply running down those he deems to be inferior.

Once funny his type of humour has worn thin and his aloofness stinks.

Twat!

I thought he was funny tbh for a bit, then he started going off the rails, now he can't say fuck all funny and all he does is make fun of things that you simply don't make jokes about :roll:

I laughed like hell when I heard this. no-one forces you to listen to jimmy carr, no point in suddenly pretending you always hated him. dark humour isn't everyone's cup of tea, its not like he attacked down syndrome sufferers...

I like Jimmy Carr's style of humour.

He pushes the boundaries of what is acceptable.

In this case, he overstepped the fucking mark.

i like Jimmy Carr and have seen him 3 times - just wish he would get rid of that fake laugh he has developed

Carr, Gervais and Boyle - are shock comedians, they say these things about gays, blacks, disabled, asian's etc, etc

to get a reaction - bit like Red Member

I like Jimmy Carr and Frankie Boyle but some of their jokes are over the mark

yeah, they shouldn't post such crap on twitter - but at there stage shows, they should be no holds barred - people who complain about there shows shouldn't go if offended - because you know what your going to get

i saw Boyle and Carr in Aberystwyth and some of there jokes are too bad to put on a message board - but everyone who went, pissed themselves laughing at there jokes

Not really followed Jimmy Carr since he first burst onto the scene, but I must say that every time I have inadvertently caught him on tv, he's had me pissing myself with laughter.

Frankie Boyle was the worst comedian Ive ever seen live, did an hour and fucked off, the hour was full of jokes about rape, paedophillia and sex abuse, I ve seen his DVD before going to a live show but theres a line what you dont cross
