"I'm gonna do the splits on your pillow!"

    Men are funnier than Women - They have a much broader and more diverse sense of humour. FACT! (not really a fact, actually just my opinion).

    Anyway, I've always thought that I was the funny one in the relationship. I have also been known to have a slightly sick sense of humour at times. But the other half comes out with some great one-liners every now and then.

    Last night, I had just finished changing the sheets etc. on the bed; and a while later we decided it was time to hit the hay. I said something along the lines of "I'll be up in a minute, don't go hoggin my side and wreckin that new bed like ya always do"... when she says straight back "I'm gonna do the splits on your pillow!"

    I was falling around laughing for a few minutes, maybe you'd have had to be there to see the funny side....

    I was wondering what people think about 'being funny' - is it a right reserved for us men or can women join in too sometimes?

    Look at comedians & comediennes - There are far more funny men out there than women. 2 that just popped into my head as I'm typing are Jo Brand & Sarah Silverman.

    Jo Brand - A.K.A. 'I'm fat - everyone laugh'
    Sarah Silverman - 'I'll act as much like a man as possible to seem funny'

    Opinions Please!!

    Women aren't funny, and as a woman it saddens me when I make a joke and I get so many pity laughs.

    I think it's safe to say that this pun shows that not all us men-folk are as hilarious as we'd like to believe...

    It's not that women aren't funny, it's that women rarely make the effort. It's like chatting up a man: they can do it, but they choose not to.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Kristen Wiig is funny.

    Katherine Tate is also funny.

    That is all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Noopti


    I find that most women comedians aren't very funny. They tend to all make jokes of the same thing:

    1. Periods
    2. Sagging breasts
    3. Pregnancy
    4. PMS

    etc etc

    I have rarely seen a woman comedian actually use current affairs/politics or anything original in their material. Not saying they aren't out there....but I've never seen them!

    Liars make the baby Jesus cry.

    QFT.

    I much prefer going out with the lads. Wimmins (most & imo) are incapable of leaving their serious side at home. For this reason, I have penis envy. Its the saddest, cringiest sight- when you walk in on a pïssed therapy session when you need to go to the toilet.

    OP, I think that was a <between couples> kind of humour ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,623 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    I think Jo Brand is definitely funny. I enjoy her when she appears on QI

    Also Kathy Burke tickles my funnyboner

    Kathy Burke is a woman?

    I always thought his parents had a sense of humour(Probably the dad) regarding the name.

    I hate when this topic comes up. Some of the funniest people I know are women and some of the biggest dry shites I've met are men. It's not all black and white.

    OP you should have just told her that you were going to jizz on her face while she slept!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,239 ✭✭✭✭WindSock


    If women arent funny, why are they always laughing in each others company?
