  • My mates have this game were they dare you to go into a shop and buy something weird. Usually the shop attendants don't understand why there's a group of teens laughing at the guy buying the three packets of cello tape, a six pack of cider, a box of condoms and a magazine on drills.

  • I would like to make 1 point. STOP SAYING WHAT HE SAID IN THE VIDEO. We all Hurd him say it SO DON'T TYPE IT.

  • Nappies? I need enlightened.

  • @TareUhhhhhh

    Well he makes it seem as if the alcohol is more important that the baby's hygiene

  • yeah right, and my arse plays the banjo... lol

  • pure genious

  • I actually love him :')

  • he's sounds like a stereotypical Irishman, talking about drink lol :D

  • i DO drink beer for the taste of it... but maybe that's because german beer is a bit better than yours:P

  • take your girlfriend ya boyfriend ya husband ya wife, but dont take them all ooo- the arguments lol

  • Anyone think that it's harder to laugh to when he does it like this, because you feel uncomfortable without hearing the laughter of others?

  • @Lizwig1 That's just because humans are proned to laugh when there's other people laughing as well, I still find the guy funny as hell without an audience. There are comedy shows on tv that do great without the laughing of an audience, like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and that's fuckin hilarious!

  • Russell Howard should do these <3

  • "What's the special occasion?" "I was sober."

    "It was beautiful /sobs"

  • I love booze so much ;_;

  • Whoever put this video together managed to extract most of the humour by the ridiculously dull setting.

  • oh. so that's how you say Stolichnaya....

  • I feel sad that a three-minute defense of "problem drinking" doesn't once mention whiskey.

  • from 0:56 too 0:60 thats me but im 15 so not in thepub and i actaully had a fight with my best mate....we past out in the middle of it.so people say....

    PS to all you trolls who are gonna use their sarcasim againts me....just because my mothe lets me drink while youre not even aloud to stay out until 6 oclock

  • @Eshayzbra96 In holland is legal to drink when you're 16, hence most kids starting drinking at age 14. Nothing special about it.

  • @mafiamitzy its not ilegal when your 16 in australia infact youre aloud to smoke,have sex (with condom to prevent aids and pregnacy) <<<if your 16 hence most people drink,smoke,have sex.......very special.

  • @mafiamitzy its not ilegal when your 16 in australia infact youre aloud to smoke,have sex (with condom to prevent aids and pregnacy) <<<if your 16 hence most people drink,smoke,have sex at the age of 12 to 16.......sex is very special.

  • @Eshayzbra96 aloud = out loud, you absolute idiot. ALLOWED. TO ALLOW is a verb. aloud is A FUCKING ADVERB about the level of NOISE your hearing or making. ENGLISH is a very hard language, isn't it????

  • @AngelBiLove Calm the fuck down you fucking pissed of troll, so the fuck what if i got confused between two that doesn't mean i can't fucking spell aye retard? I know for a fact you have done the same thing but of course you're gonna deny it but we both know it's true. Stupid fuck no need to piss yourself and smack your head on the desk because OF THAT, god go fuck your english teacher. Trolllllllllllllllllllllllls these days.

  • @AngelBiLove easy... i think hes no older than 15 lol

  • haha

  • I don't need a reason either but being sober is enough too go ED

  • well im an antisocial drinker 

  • He's a genious! I'm gunna do that thing with the nappies once xD

  • haha wow, Ed Byrne's never been funnier! Stand up without all the live laughter seems like a totally different kettle of fish. Could potentially be a bit dry. His jokes were class though

  • Oh, the whip 'round for the nappies would've made me feel like dirt. But, at the same time, brilliant.

  • Sum 41 is pop punk and in my opinion still gay, i hate trivuim!!!!, they are metal core posers!, metal core is not real metal!, i dont know a single metal head that actually likes them, go and ask a metal head wearing a pantera or opeth shirt and see what they they think, only 14 year old emo boys and girls think that metal!, then i play em some slayer or DEATH, or better yet Daath, and they run home to mummy crying, but yeah Enigma still is better.

  • God, I love him.

  • @AnotherLostSoul1 Thats why i stick around Enigma, see 17 year old emos don't like listening to actual metal, they would rather Metalcore try hard wannabes like Trivium, Bullet for my gaytime, and so on, the second any pantera starts, they are gone!, i mean its like turning the lights on in the kitchen and seeing all the cockys running away.

  • @AnotherLostSoul1 Yeah, thats true, Enigma bar is always good though, still you can't get away from 17 year old emo's!!!!, those fuckers are like a plague!!.

  • at the beginning i was like why isnt anybody laughing that was funny! haha.......

  • It's great!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT!!!!!!

  • When will drinking ever become passé? When will this species ever get bored with it? Why can't we just move onto something else already, like being mature and productive?

  • @SelectCircle

    Because not everyone wants a monotonous, mediocre life where your only social contact is the few minutes you spend with a just as bland co-worker in the elevator.

    This modern day production attitude is detrimental to creativity, spontaneity and in the end happiness.

  • @smagmauder When will low-brow concepts of the meaning of life ever become passé? When will this species ever get bored with unimaginative approaches to being productive? Why can't we develop the right idea of spiritual fulfillment, and live in a constant state of ecstatic joy?

    : D

  • @AnotherLostSoul1 LOL! That's not in keeping with your national image! :D I've been to Adelaide, btw, and I really liked it. And Ed Byrne must like it, based on the experience he mentions in his act. Ha!

  • I drink beer because i like the taste of it, I intake the alcohol because it fucks with my head.

  • I was sober.

  • "I drink to give my liver the excerise :)" BEST ONE!

  • lol put back the nappies :O

  • Dats Fukin Hilerious x :D

  • I have to agree being sober is the best reason / occasion for drinking.

  • Love that he's honest about drinking.

  • looks funny without his glasses:)

  • ok that made me laugh - "put a nappy in the trolley. . . the checkout will look at you like your scum" hehe

  • "take your girlfriend, your boyfriend, your wife, your husband. but don't take them all, that'll cause arguments.."

  • Why does everyone quote people on videos? I got it the first time. I don't scroll down to the comments to see what I missed.

  • @him050 Hahahahaha

  • @him050 Lol I know what you mean, sometimes it spoils it if you read it while waiting for the video to buffer...!

  • Ed Byrne, feckin' comic genius.

  • i like anybodies drink i'm not fussy

    haha!

  • Basically, just about anywhere BUT Woolies. Coles should do it

  • hahahahahah ! xDxD

  • hahahahah xD christ i'd laugh my arse off xD no way i could keep a straight face. "no i just stick he papers up my kids arse, and IT suddenly stopped shitting... it has become a little bigger, eyes are a little watery, but IT dosent shit so..." jesus i would love to try it, but i would never be able to , i'd piss me self laughin xD

  • God yea ! whata laugh ! :D im hopin someone will have a whip round for the dipers when i do it. might even through in a comment like "how much do they really need to shit those little buggers" or "who really needs to crap anyway"

  • hahahah! he impresses the fuck outta me every time ! he's hysterical and eggy all at once ! its fucking brilliant ! Ed Byrne is a comedy genius

  • @AnotherLostSoul1, Go to an IGA or Coles, my local's got it ... Ignore woolworths:-) I'm trying it soon as I'm 18. stupid friggin Australia drinking law:)

  • @genuinelyenigmatic 18? You're lucky! In the US it's 21! You can get vote, get married, join the army and much more, but you can't even have a damn beer (legally) until you're 21.

  • @Tracymmo Seriously? Jesus... Is that only in some states or the whole country?

  • @genuinelyenigmatic Whole country. The law changed when I was in college in the 80s, tho I got grandfathered in and could still go to my favorite punk bars. A lot of university presidents hate it. Instead of reducing youth binge drinking, it makes it worse. And the penalties for bars and stores are HUGE so I get carded sometimes and I'm 43! BTW -- you still have Woolworths? Ours all closed at least 10 years ago. And can you buy beer there?

  • @Tracymmo That's crazy... And yeah, they're still open. I don't know what Woolies was in the US but here it's one of the two major grocery store chains... probably why it's still open:-)

    And yeah, you can but the alcohol it's separate from the rest of the store, I think it's so they can keep a better eye out for any under-age teenagers or something

  • @Tracymmo No one in the UK waits until they're 18 to drink. It's usually around 12 or 13. In fact 18 is when you start thinking about cutting down a bit and maybe not getting gone-blind-and-crawling-in-you­r-own-puke drunk EVERY night but just at weekends.

  • @mikeofdoom Well, I imagine that it's hard to keep that up forever. And hey, I didn't say 21 is when people start to drink here. It's just when you don't have to ask someone older to buy a six pack for you while you wait outside.

  • @mikeofdoom amen to that!!!

  • ...and my arse plays the banjo!

  • hahaha you drink to get drunk. you drink to-get-drunk.

  • Translations for confused Canadians & Americans:

    Off-Licence = liquor store

    shopping trolley = shopping cart

    nappies = diapers

    had a whip round = took up a collection

  • Did someone really need that translation -_-

  • @mallic Only the tons of people who kept leaving questions. But the confusion goes in both directions across the Atlantic. I'm still laughing from when an Irish guy asked me what a mutual American friend meant when he joked about kicking him in his fanny!

  • @Tracymmo

    Thank you so much for translating! I was going crazy trying to figure out what the hell a whip round was! I kept replaying that part like 20 times...

  • @Tracymmo

    Er...No Off-Lincence is a newsagents.....

  • @rainbowumbrellaness free dictionary defines an off-licence as "A store that sells bottles or cans of alcoholic beverages for consumption off the premises." makes sense really considering you need a licence to sell alcohol and you drink it off the premises. BOOM

  • @rainbowumbrellaness Well, now I'm really confused. Newsagent = newsstand (US). No alcohol in a US newsstand. The definitions I find online are like what cryptkeeper found. But this is even confusing within the US since every state makes its own laws about where alcohol can be sold, and it varies like crazy. All this leads me to the conclusion that I need a drink. Maybe I'll go to the ridiculous place we have here in Ohio: the drive-thru (alcoholic) beverage store.

  • @Tracymmo wow, you got 71 thumbs up for that, so I guess you helped someone.

    but just for future reference, that's pretty condescending.

  • @softersideofbacon Actually why? It's not like that person could look at us and see the confused expressions on our faces. So for the reference of those of us who may not understand the lingo, this person puts up a helpful guide. I'd personally say helpful, not condescending.

  • @Tracymmo you're awesome

  • @postmodernartsucks Thanks! Alcohol brings people together. (sniff)

  • @Tracymmo I knew what everything was except the last one 'cause I picked up a lot watching Mock The Week on youtube

  • @beamerball666 Funny how instructive MTW can be! I've got a better understanding of British politics that way. 

  • diapers, nappies are diapers.

  • @tommymajor2003 diapers

  • @tommymajor2003 wat wains shite into as u amreicans may call it diapers

  • im actually Canadian, believe it or not

  • @tommymajor2003 either way you call it diapers now u no :D

  • @jakeholio17surr Now you just need to translate wains and shite. ;)

  • @Tracymmo wains and shit?, who needs to translate them?, an american?, im not surprised, you could be talking plain English to em, and unless you say it in a slight Yank accent, they wont understand a fucking word you say!.

  • @Aheadstix85 I said shite, not shit. English speakers outside the US get so much of our TV and movies that you learn more of our terms and accents than we do yours. But I've had to explain tons of words to Aussie, English and Irish colleagues -- jumper, marker, fanny (ah, that's a great one), route (when said like lout), cot, rubber (another good one) and plenty of others. And watching visitors encounter Black English & some regional accents is damn hilarious.

  • um....I think they're called diapers in america

  • there are some comedians have minds that are so incredibly hilarious that i find them depressing to watch - what i would give to think like ed byrne....

  • This guy is a fucking legend, if you disagree your probably a cunt

  • 'ya little socialite you'

  • ed byrne is a fucking ledge!

  • call me sad but since im only 15 i cant buy booze yet but i went to ASDA with my mum and did the shopping trolly prank, the woman went "your a sick family"

  • LoL there are 2 types of drunks...there are happy drunks & angry drunks. Personally...I get happy when I drink and then I slowly get tired & fall asleep. Ahh good times.

  • most alcohols make me a happy drunk, but once i get started on rum things go sour.... rums my fighting juice

  • @andyrooney11 me too

  • I like beer, call me a crazy arse, but I do! I drink, I'm a weekend warriar, I have fun because life is to short.

  • i only liked the taste of beers when i was younger and now i think it tastes like piss lol

  • ...I actually DO only drink beer because I like the taste.....

    *blush*

  • ed your drinking again

    yeah

  • 'will i bring my own chair as well oh host with the most?maybe i'll bring some snacks as well incase i get hungry? do you have a CD player?......it doesn't matter because i'm NOT coming!'

  • nappies are diapers

  • "I drink beer because I like the taste of it..yeah and my arse plays the banjo"

  • I saw him live doing the Different Classes show! :D

    It was so good.  Can't wait for the DVD to come out in November. :P

    I love Ed Byrne. ;D

  • I saw him live, and hes fantastic.

    You don't laugh as much at him without an audience pleasant. =D

  • HE IS A REAL IRISH COMEDIAN YOU KNOB

  • I´m planing on doing the "nappies- thing" for real and video it (here in germany) and put it on youtube.

    for real !

    ed is great!

  • i will want to see this :D

  • bring my own chair... whaha, classic

  • hahah lol this is funnier live mind.

  • ... (Y) thanks 4 sharing..

  • This guy is a genius.

  • a whip rounfd

  • my arse plays the banjo

  • whats the reason

    i was sober

    yeah im going to use that the next time

  • I love when he tells that last joke.

    How in the hell does Ed not have a television show? I know he was working on one a long time ago and nothing happened with it.

    Ed is extremely talented and special. He has his own unique style of telling a joke. His own delivery, and his topics are original. Many people have a similar style of stand-up and don't stand out. This isn't the case with him.

    Ed stands out. No routine has one joke that's never been clever and funny. It's as simple as that.

  • This is/he is genius. hehe

  • you forgot the "(a)".

  • You don't need the a.

  • "he is genius" sounds a bit dodgy, therefore an optional 'a' would resolve this grammatical crisis.

  • He is not merely "a" genius.

    He is genius!! XD

  • It's not a grammatical crisis if it "sounds a bit dodgy."

    And like Wes said. They would mean not just A genius.

  • ok nice one, i'll have a think about that one.

  • i think ( please don't bite me if i'm wrong ^^;;) that it's a colloqual term used frequantly in Ireland.

    xx

  • "Ed I see your drinking again", "Yeah" "Whats the occasion?" "I was Sober!" Fucking brilliant, he tells it the way it is.

  • omg i fell out of my chair when he said that!! soooooo fucking hilarious!!

  • "And my arse plays the banjo" ahaha

  • What the hell are "Nappies" ?

  • nappies are "Dypers" or whatever the hell they're called.

    it's the english word for them.

    x

  • OOOOH, now I get the joke ! Thanks abunch !

  • you're welcome ^^ xx

  • Huh... that makes a lot more sense. I was thinking he meant napkins or kleenex or something.

  • Same. And knowing is half the battle.
