    actually don't find that at all funny. one joke skit that finds humour in the negative characteristics of black people.
    **** with fat lips
    **** who date daughters of white folk.
    **** who are allowed to eat in an expensive restaurant.
    **** who don't pay their bills.
    The joke is that they are actually white people with the name Niggar. they are not offended so it is funny if a ****** would find any offence in such characterisations

    The only people that would find this amusing are rascists.

    Completely agree with Madisona - can't see this crap lasting too long...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31 madisona


    and what is the point.
    a white Father expresses shock when his wife tells him that his daughter has "a date with a ******. boy from school" "Oh God NO " he exclaims.
    The audience laughs uproariously at his reaction because they know whats coming. It isn't actually a ******. that she will be shagging but a white boy whose name is niggar. hirarious

    another retard to add to the ignore list.
    Someone doesnt understand sarcasm or irony.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    Em the joke is on(amongst other things) how people used to act and believe things like coloured people were inferior.
    Do you get jokes?
    sarcasm, irony?

    EDIT: fuzzy got there first :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭BigCon


    Yeah I know that, you know that, the op knows that, but there are still people out there who don't know that. IMO it's bad taste for that very reason.
    Do you think an coloured person would be offended?

    Dave Chappele said its funny


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31 madisona


    well ok. maybe I misunderstood.
    the skit however was not produced with sarcasm or irony such as for example Borat's "Throw the jew down the well" It was intended to be amusing for those that believed black people to be inferiour. Don't get me wrong. I am not personnaly offended in the least but you did not make clear that it was meant to be looked at from a 21st century ironic perspective.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,598 ✭✭✭ferdi

    Yes I know that.
    No I don't think a coloured person would be offended by it.They are acting in it on an american tv show.Why would they be?In films skits are made by both sides.What's the problem.Racists should get that the joke is on them.
    It's bad taste because racists exist? give it a rest.
    Have you ever watched tv, it should be banned!!1212

    Lol, Jokes don't need to be explained :)
    What other perspective would we look at it in?
    I don't know borats joke you are on about but by your reasoning he should be shot.

    EDIT: that is not who it is intended for ,it was on the dace chappele show.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭BigCon


    Ok, didn't know it was contemporary.:o
    Carry on my brothers


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31 madisona


    A racist would not see that the joke was on him. he would think that it was funny and an affirmation of his beliefs.

    I did not know that it was contemporary either. If it is the context is completely different and I appear to have suffered an irony deficit. and you're right . jokes shouldn't need to be explained

    still son't think that it's funny though


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    Well how about if you don't find it funny you don't make accusations that anybody that does is a racist.
    If a group of people that are clearly not racist start making jokes on a huge television show in america and it is let on air by coloured people you think a racist would believe it was affirming his/her beliefs?
    I doubt even they are that ignorant.
    If that clip was made in a basement by only white people then you may have a case but it wasn't.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,987 ✭✭✭✭zAbbo


    Have you ever seen Chappelles show, or are you going to continue to act the retard?

    Nice work Tar.Aldarion, on ousting this mong ;)

    Why the f*ck are people tryin to be so politically correct these days, bring back the attitude of british comedy in the 70's and 80's. that was a brilliant era before everyone suddenly got sticks shoved where the sun rarely shines.

    as long as it's done in such a way that it isn't a form of abusive language or things like that i don't see any problem. Call me an alcoholic Paddy any day of the week i find no harm in it

    once again i have never seen Chappelles show and did not know that it was contemporary or it was being presented in an ironic context.

    ....and it is let on air by coloured people you think a racist would believe it was affirming his/her beliefs?

    I can't believe you actually referred to black people as "coloured". Once again you show your ignorance on this forum.

    indeed. you should consider the negative effect that the characterisation of yourself in that way will have on the perception of irish people in general and the fact that it will help to perpetuate a negative and outdated stereotype.

    It's all a play on a deragatory word, so ironic or not, I don't think it's suitable.

    Ahh yeah you have me there, I was thinking that comedy central was a U.S. television station. But as you pointed out to me, it's actually South African.

    You might as well add arrogance to your list of negative traits. Get out in the world a little bit more and learn yourself some education.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31 madisona


    indeed. nobody in the states refers to blacks as "coloureds".
    africian americans is the politically correct terminology

    Tar.Aldarion You made a number of ignorant statements about vegetarianism here before. The web pages you quoted from were completely inaccurate and served to prove the very opposite of your argument. Then when you realized this you just put your head in the sand and started name calling.

    No you inferred that I used coloured as an offensive term whereas I did not, It is continuing along the same lines of the joke that if i say something ironically that that makes me a racist.http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Coloured
    Then I made another joke saying i meant the 'coloured people' of south africa and still you do not get it.

    Oh now I am arrogant, go on where does that come out of?Maybe That I think that you have half a brain then you would get a joke?
    where were all these outraged replies that i got about the original joke when I said coloured, maybe people can get jokes on the humour forum,who knows.

    eh. FX Meister made a remark about someone who characterised themselves as an alcoholic paddy. His remark was clearly intended to be ironic.
    however you Tar seem to have failed to realize this. Perhaps you should ask sombody to explain irony to you. touche

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,217 ✭✭✭FX Meister


    You used an outdated and derogatory term, just because you don't know it shouldn't be used doesn't mean it's ok. It's just ignorant. But you still think you are in the right and in a very overbearing way. That's just arrogant.
    But there's no point arguing with you over it. Unfortunately all I can do is look down on you and feel sorry for you. Enjoy the rest of you evening. I won't be back.

    Oh nice one bow out when I explain my joke,at least fuzzy was smart enough to get it.I doubt you even know that the black people called THEMSELVES coloured in the video as a joke.Sigh. I have explained that it is derogatory and even linked you to a definition of it being so.

    You would absolutely need to have seen his show to appreciate the humour. The "Niggar Family" segment is from S02E02 and a vast amount of the audience are black. He gives a great intoduction to the segment and why he did it in the first place. You really would need a little background on it before you see it to "get" the humour.

    On a side note, he's hailed as being one the most intelligent comedians on the earth today. He did another good segment on the same show extracting the urine out of McDonalds for an ad they ran which emphasised how many african american staff they employ.

    Get this episode if you can.
