I don't know why but I find something off about him

He's really just a great big fat friendly affable bloke who loves chatting about any oul ****e and is a really good sort. Inexplicably 'inexplicable.' Each to one's own.

I just get a vibe of insincerity and falseness and “terrified to say anything mildly controversial” from him

If you ever listen to his radio patter, everyone is great, everything is brilliant, aw shucks isn’t it great.

That’s ALL he ever says - maybe it’s a good thing I don’t know ....

but he’s very very predictable it all comes across a bit fake and if it is “all an act” shows disrespect for his audience

If he genuinely is that optimistic and positive he is 1 in a million.

I met the man once in a pub on one of the Aran Islands and he’s pretty much like that in person. He was there by himself and people would come over and start up a conversation. He seemed to real enjoy people’s “stories” and would tell a few of his own.

He gives off a sort of priest/funeral director “vibe”, good with people in any circumstance.

George Hook. This guy is a vacuous loud mouth who loves attention. He knows absolutely nothing about rugby and is a very poor mans Eamon Dunphy. I'd doubt he believes half the nonsense he spouts.

When I was in college we sort of got George stuck in a lift. He took it very well.

Excellent synopsis Beech.

Same could apply to Des Cahill, in my opinion.

Seth Rogen is someone I can't warm to. He comes across as a cocky @rsehole. The beard and dark rimmed glasses only make him look more smug.

Archeron · 16-03-2021 08:18PM

I'd like to nominate David Dickinson. Until now I knew him as an antiques show dude with a bit of a cocky ( for antique shows) attitude.

I saw one of those shows twice this week and holy God, there's a man that has to have bodies buried under the patio. He gropes people and is extremely creepy all while looking straight into the camera the entire time. I think I could smell him off the tv show

Not really hilarious when he's the one voicing himself.

Rogen tells people to 'f**k off, and don't see my movies' on social media if they happen to disagree with him.

Doubt McDonald's would survive a week if they told all their customers the same deal.

Rogen and Amy schumer did a series of adverts for Bud Light back in 2016.

The adverts were SOOO hated, Bud Light was losing sales. So Schumer and Rogen were dropped.
Those ad's were THAT bad.

Anyone said Conor Moore yet?

For those who don't know, he's an 'impressionist' (not the painting kind) who got famous on Up for the match for impersonating Joe Brolly.

Since then, he's SOMEHOW gotten wide publicity for his 'comedy' sketches... and he's painfully unfunny.

I think he gets to appear in skits on Ivan Yates TV show, The Green Room (? Genuinely don't know the name of the show). I caught 5 minutes of one episode of the show. It cut to Moore's 'comedy' and it was bad.

Think he was featured in the Unfunny Irish Comedians thread if hes the same chap I'm thinking of.

So you can't stand him because he's a bad comedian?
You've actually explained that quite well

'Comedy' was hyphenated because I wouldn't class him as a comedian.

It’s like they tried to cram in everything they thought their target audience might have enjoyed around the time of Superbad but really hate now that they’ve grown up a bit

Hangdogroad · 21-03-2021 09:07AM

That reminds me. Amy Schumer, cant stand her.

Hangdogroad · 21-03-2021 11:32AM

Julie Burchill, a nasty piece of work. Been in the news recently over her abuse of Ash Sarker (wouldnt be a fan of her btw). Burchill had been getting away with this sort of thing for decades.

Whatever about hating him, I don’t think anyone will hate Paddy as much as he loves himself.
Keeps trying to make himself a celebrity too.

Each to their own, but that movie bored me to tears.

As did the 'female remake', Blockers.

She had her heyday in 2016, but it was alllll downhill after that. Everything from Joke theft, to absolutely dreadful films, to her comedy specials dying faster than a parasite without a host.

Plus some very, very serious allegations were made against her.

If you want to know the full extent of how much of a cnut Paddy is, read Tony 10 the book. At one point Tony is tens of thousands in debt but still gambling thousands each day and due to a technical error the Paddy Power app stops working for a few hours.

Cue a phone call from Paddy to Tony telling him this is his personal phone number and for Tony call him with any bet he wants to lay on while the app is down.

Despite taking thousands off him, Paddy couldn't leave the poor lad alone for a few hours.

I wouldn't p1ss on him if he was on fire. An absolute unctuous, self aggrandising cnut who profits and revels in the misery of others.

Remember when he was a comedian?

Jesus, seems so damn long ago. Now he's the very guy who'll damn his own older comedy vids for their 'misogyny'.

Plonker.

Who is someone you inexplicably can't stand?
