this was on dave once and i was watching it and kne wit was coming up and my ma was wanting to turn it over and i was all "Wait for the ice fishing!" and she kept it there and my am has NO sense fo houmor whatsoever, but she was laughing her head off at this too.
@YaN8XiaojiE I thought they were the same but Inuit was their name for themselves and Eskimo is the name the Europeans gave them, which they thought a bit unpleasant as it meant 'meateaters' in their language?
Eskimo is kinda an outdated term. Many of my native friends consider it derogatory but agree that it generally means the people who live in the northern regions of canada. Most Alaskans use the specific terms like Yupik, Athabascan, or Inuit. Inuits inside of alaska may punch u if u call em an eskimo.
Go to the Alaska Native Heritage Center site, its a good place to get facts.
@YaN8XiaojiE I thought it was- I wasn't denying the outmoded and derogatory status of 'Eskimo', I was just questioning whether they were two seperate peoples, rather than the same people but with different names, Eskimo being European-applied and offensive.
@edwardianeccentric well what im saying is if you look on paper, no they are the same, however in AK people consider Eskimo to be referring to a seperate people in Canada.
its just that it was pretty random to start talking about an eskimo robot butler. as i am not british, i tend to assume that whenever something seems random/nonsensical to me that it is a cultural reference that i don't get.
yeh it was pretty random. At the start he was given initials "D.I.R.B" and they had to come up with the headline. It was just a silly joke.
Culture difference? I don't feel that way about American comedy, but then again they pride themselves on reaching all audiences so American jokes are hardly complex.
no it's not a reference to anything in particular, it's just a bit of surrealism. Frankie Boyle does have quite a random element to his humour which, personally, makes his abusive and vulgar side more tolerable
I think the funniest part of this video isn't really the joke, but the look of, "...wait, what the fuck am I saying? Oh god..." on his face afterwards.
i hate how everyone says all the others aren't as funny as Frankie. it's not that they aren't funny,it's that they don't have the balls to be as.."WAH!" as he is. if that makes sense.
ps. no i'm not bloody putting him down. last time i made a comment like this some nazi-ish person shat himself and started a 3 comments a time "war".
true, Vault101Reject, he pretty much says what his mind is concoting at that given moment, hes such a spontaneous talent, and is definitely one of my top 3 comedians
aye vault you're right, he's just got more balls to say what everyone wants to say, and he doesn't bother stopping himself when he says something stupid... as seen by this clip. Gotta love it.
@Vault101Reject well I dunno. Hugh Dennis and Russell Howard sometimes touch the border that Frankie was always breaking...other than that your probably right.
@Vault101Reject I agree! Frankie Boyle is hilarious, but so is Hughs deadpan delivery and Russell Howards always sunny disposition. Dara's obviously brilliant as well. The only one I don't get is Andy Parsons.
I think he was clearly embarrased by his lack of imagination on this one lol, hence his reaction after the joke. (example being; this would work well normally for Russell's inane humour)
I believe I may have pissed my pants when Frankie sighs and Dara looks at him, confused.
