    .....actually DON'T! just trust me, dont!

    Too late. Ah well, I've learned.

    On Topic: I'm MCing the Special Olympics fundraiser at the Tap Bar this Thursday... pretty sure the lineup includes Eric Shantz, Kieran Lawless, Gabby Reilly, Jack Kincaid, Geo, Kait McMurray, and Denis Mulcahy. There might be others but I could be wrong.

    I wonder... would doing material about the Special Olympics at a fund raiser for said Olympics be mandatory, or verboten?

    ah slimJ whats the worst that could happen if you make those jokes....what r they gonna do? chase you? :pac:

    geo makes special olympics jokes so youll be grand!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 203 ✭✭squidgey


    I would proceed with caution. There will probably be people there who are family members of athletes, or connected to people with special needs in some way. If you don't have that connection yourself then it's possibly unfair to do material about it.
    Geo has an attachment to the special Olympics, the audience will know that so that "permits" him to do material about it in some degree. He will be allowed get away with more.

    If you're a black guy in a wheelchair, then the audience will never criticise any jokes you do or any words you use surrounding black people or people with physical disabilities. Bit extreme of an example, but a more realistic one would be the fact that I have recently just become a father. When I explain that to people in a set I think that permits me to do more econtroversial material on children. Personally I think I now deserve the right to do those kind of jokes because I have an emotional attachment to the subject matter.

    Does anyone have a wheelchair and some shoe polish I can borrow for Thursday night?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,972 ✭✭✭orestes


    Stop this discussion here please.

    If you want to discuss the matter start a thread on it. This thread is for posting shows, that's it. If I see people taking pot-shots at the special olympics (or anyone else for that matter) in this forum again I will hand out infractions. This is a discussion forum, not a joke forum. You wanna post jokes, post them in humour, but follow the rules in the charter there too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 103 ✭✭Damon Blake


    "I'm giving you three options:

    1) You can post in the Humour forum.
    2) You can make jokes here.
    3) I can give you an infraction."

    "Um, then I'll choose 2?"

    "THAT'S NOT AN OPTION. Dooooo I look like someone who cares about semantics?"

    Dec 6th, An Draiocht, Blanchardstown

    The Lalorpalooza Show

    Eric Lalor was walking through Ballymun Shopping Centre in Dec 2004 when he saw a poster looking for any wannabe stand-up comedians who fancied doing comedy workshops. He went along to an audition, got picked, did a documentary called ‘Joy in the Hood’ with Des Bishop and the rest is history. Since working with Des, Eric, a proud son of the ‘Mun has climbed the comedy rankings faster than a monkey up a ladder on speed. He is now at a crossroads, ready to step out of the comforts of the IT corporate world, and take a risk with his own solo show. The Lalorpalooza show is his first ever solo show – one man, one show, one hour... can he come out victorious? Come and decide for yourself. ‘excellent, bellyachingly funny and fast moving’ (Kilkenny People); ‘He’s getting better all the time, so much so that he’s starting to freak me out. I have created a monster!!’ (Des Bishop).
