    I have thought about this so many times, so glad there are a lot of other people out there thinks Jason Byrne isn't funny.

    Genuine question. How is it people like JB get themselves into these positions of prominence?

    Some of the funny men on here should pool their resources and put on a comedy show themselves for charity. They can show the fraudsters how it’s done and raise money for a good cause while they’re at it.

    That’s actually a good idea, Woke. I’d pay a few quid for some edgy fresh homegrown comedy. Like an open mic night for After Hours.

    the day I put myself out there and declare myself as a professional footballer and get nutmegged and fall my on my ass by a 50 year old obese sunday leaguer is the day I will pack in my 'professional' footballing and gladly take the very deserved abuse for putting myself out there as one in the first place.

    Understand the analogy and just how idiotic your post is?

    Thanks, Johnny.

    I wouldn’t go in case some of the lunatics who follow me around from discussion to discussion on here came at me with a knife but I would definitely watch it on the internet and donate some money towards it.

    Ara you wouldn’t even have to have all of them showing their face or anything. Just some new Irish comedy talent bringing some laughter to our lives, and all for a good cause.

    Sure you were defending Spittle a few pages back now you're making disparaging remarks about this lady's looks. :confused:

    Make up your mind Woke, or a least have your Johnnyflash account take the opposing side and leave it at that.

    It's pathetic stuff, himself, woke and emmet, whether they are the same person matters little, the tag teaming and the relentless post count is sad stuff. Yer man flash claims hes this top notch business man millionaire and has declared himself a "boards legend" on the dump taking thread. sad.

    He was a whiny little brat on I'm a Celeb.

    How can someone who's a 'comedian' be so whiny and unfunny?

    I was wondering why I couldn't find a single clip of Joanne McNally's standup.
    Even if she appears on a tv show, they never show her standup.

    Then I found this... Jesus, it's bad. :eek:

    She's got the voice of a math's teacher.

    He's unfunny because he's a bad comedian and whiny because clearly he's bit of a tit as well.

    Male ones who “tell it like it is”.

    Genuinely never heard of her but the accent is all over the place, slips into posh and skanger Dublin, she can't hold whichever one is the fake one.

    Jason Byrne
    Alison Spittle
    Maeve Higgins
    Des Bishop
    Pat Shortt
    Andrew Maxwell
    Ed Byrne
    Dara O Briain
    PJ Gallagher
    Other

    I wouldn't pay to see any of these. Pat Shortt had his time and was funny but never really evolved past his one trick.
    As for the rest - they all belong on Dave.

    Quoting you both because I believe you're the same person.

    Irish comedians? Very few. None that spring to mind tbh.

    I find the whole 'ha, I'm Irish... tayto crisps, drunk, hungover, leaving on the immersion'... etc etc boring. It's all Rinse and repeat.
    Comedy I like tends to tackle all the regular 'human' stuff.
    Comics I like aren't Irish, tbh. I like Taylor Tomlinson. I think Daniel Sloss can be funny. Dave Chappelle I like. Kathleen Madigan is really good too.

    I think Irish comedians need to do better frankly.

    My take, I think one follows the other around quite pathetically. One tries too hard to entertain and the other, for some bizarre reason tries to impress a username on a forum, jumping at any opportunity to beat the misogyny drum (see above) as flash sees himself as some knight in shining armour at times that suits him. It's car crash stuff seeing one post some pile of muck and a minute later has his understudy in to "validate his thoughts" on the dump taking process and whatever else current affairs pro FG non-issue he sees vital to comment on.

    Haha, living rent free inside your head, pal!

    jesus, the 'living rent free in your head' is getting a bit tedious no? which did you pick it up from the obama or trump meme's?

    the 'dry your eyes mate'

    'mate' i genuinely feel sorry for you, you are on this forum 24/7, self-declare yourself as a boards 'legend' whatever that is. yet spend a heap of your time saying people get too upset on this and spend too much time on it. look at your post count...pathetic.

    glad i rattled your cage though ;)
