Tim Minchin on human logic

[MrCrazydude927]

P.E.T.A-phile



[Batteri000]

Why dosen't he wear socks and shoes?

[JAB63096]

@Batteri000 It's sort of his thing. At first when he was doing small club and bar shows it made him feel more comfortable like he was just performing for a few friends at home, and people got used to it so he never wears shoes on stage.

[ArtfulDawdger]

'oh its only four and a half minutes, it must not be one of his songs' -me

[ziplob]

It's from 'Ready For This'

[PeoplesNerd]

Does Anyone Know What This Concert Is Called ?

[MagicDanDini]

That awkward moment when you're performing to an audience of daleks.

[DinMorsPimp]

What show is this from?

[keyboardescapism]

ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD.

[256kabir]

what's with the alien crowd? what planet are you from, boyos?

[PSNLeech]

Why is he barefoot?

[SaraHussain]

@PSNLeech He prefers to perform barefoot.

[dictationer]

@PSNLeech are you questioning the minchins' apparel?

[Sasoun1234]

Inception called, they wanted their horn back.



[BearWindAppleyard]

All glory to the Hypnotoad!

[LLOYD19851012]

I used to get a free Ice-Cream on my Birthday when the Ice-Cream man came around.

[swm1994]

@LLOYD19851012

Omg same :O.. I'm worried now.

[norskesopetunnen]

even machines find this amuzing

[YeaThatsWhatSheSaid]

boxxy's father

[fluffyxsama]

Correlation doesn't imply causation, but it does waggle its eyebrows suggestively and gesture furtively while mouthing, "Look over there!"

[TheTruBluRage]

he's performing for an audience of Ceph from Crysis 2.

[mightytaco123]

oh i get it the more me pray the more we will be saving afracan babies

[thebt123123]

jingle is from killer 7 the ending in black in white in the hotel look up the killing of the killer 7

[fiskenen]

Could anyone please tell me what the name of this show is? :)

[Litzchip]

Someone please upload this whole show. Whatever it's called.

[AustralianHPfan]

The audience laughter is fucking DEMONIC!!!!

[spyroninja]

lol this guy is a tool. yes, I am laughing at him.

[theseblueirides]

Skepticism is just as much a cult as Christianity. It's all just creepy shit, man.

[newo82]

@theseblueirides The opposite to skeptic is gullible. Which end of the spectrum is a cornerstone to a cult?

[schr4nz]

@theseblueirides lolno

[EpicAthiest]

@theseblueirides

Skepticism is merely questioning. Why is the sky blue? One man says, it's blue because it is the color of hope and peace. Well, how do you know it's hope/peace?

Or if the man says, it's blue because an angel makes it so. Well, how do you know an angel did it?

[TheHannonqz]

Which show is this?

[dewooo]

He is a combination of Ross Noble and George Carlin.

[iliketorofllol]

this is the campest stand up i've ever seen.. and i've seen Alan Carr.

[MojoMagicians]

I feel the crowd is filled with terminators with a sense of humor.

[lightsoutff]

I think this is somewhere between very accurate, and straight-up racist

[leftclickben]

Consequence vs. Subsequence vs. Coincidence.

[sneakyjackal]

He's performing for an audience of robots!

[COEXISTential]

@sneakyjackal Robotic comments, too.

[MondoHoN]

@sneakyjackal Fuck you, I laughed at the laughter more than the actual video.

[chrisbaker91]

Ive only seen female icecream people recently probably because people always thought the men were pedophiles

[xxp1x13xx]

omg!! Im not the only one who thinks Icecream men are pedophiles :D

[OliByGolly1]

2:32 'I think this is somewhere between very accurate and - straight up racist' XD

[alexanderhenderson18]

Hypnotoad is in the audience

[pandorachild]

People are , FUNNNNAY! this guy is pure fucking awesome and the hair is the proof.

[stephlewis93]

He tells good stories.

I could picture him being a good older brother or something.

[LittleTrupp]

People are funny

[Cewfl]

@bellow it's a brand new IPod touch with 8 gig so don't you tell me I need a new one

[lordtarnerran]

Robot laughter? Someone needs a new sound system.

[Cewfl]

The robot sound is a hole being torn in the fabric of time and space due to the un PC nature of the amusement of tim.

[CheesitWeesit]

I didn't know Tim did a performance to robots!

[AnonymousAnimus]

What the fuck is the sound after the jokes?!

[BJ219]

The robot laughter caught me off guard.

[KaizerNail]

the way he moves on stage feels contrived and unauthentic.

[yerk3]

The audience has the voice of Hell.

[yerk3]

British ice cream trucks play Greensleeves? Here we only get Turkey in the Straw.

[starofcctv94]

audiance of robots?

[AbsotivelyNothingful]

@starofcctv94 It sounds like they're laughing into pedestal fans.

[FullCircleStories]

i love the sound of everyone laughing

[shaneac9]

@FullCircleStories WEIRDO

[PsychoMilky]

Mind=blown

[keithyunggun]

the audience sound like the ghost of xmas past from the future

[zainbaozen]

@vibronic he' Australian, not british

[hadinizami]

the audience are androids

[vibronicz]

british comedians are so weird but so funny

[allieron]

@vibronicz He's not British.

[lovetohate12]

@snaredrum110 If you're such a funny fellow, why don't you make a youtube video with some of your material? You're sad, so very sad.

[bongolongo]

And he ends it by making my favorite point: that Christians are complete narcissists in thinking that their god will tend to their petty needs while millions of people suffer horrible, meaningless deaths. Minchin, my hero.

[pianonger]

@bongolongo Why do you say that Christians are selfish people who care only about themselves? Why do you think that the people who help feed the homeless, contribute to freeing slaves in third world countries, who are the ones donating so much of their time and life in order to help others? I think that you need to stop that the false prophets of our modern day society (and in history) are the epitome of Christians. Not to call any names, but that comment was just dumb and false.

[Hagathorthegr8]

@pianonger it is false, because bongolongo never said Christians were selfish, just that they were narcissists in their tendencies to pray for petty things, I know not all christians are like that, but there are a few bad apples that spoil it for those of us who disagree with their faith. Like the christian athletes who thank God for their good performance in a game or that kind of nonsense, or christian politicians, (especially in America) who use the bible to mask their bigoted views.

[catchrnthkudzu]

@Hagathorthegr8 An athelete publicly surrendering to God all credit or glory for his achievements is hardly narcisism. It is humbleness, humility and a recognition of things greater than oneself. Same goes for Christian politicians. Those core values help a person from being fooled by every lying huckster and phony liberal dingbat with a little charisma and a silver tongue, like Obama, Tony Blair, etc. Look at the freakin mess those assholes have made making up their own rules as they go along

[catchrnthkudzu]

@TheMeanAdmin Judging by your unintelligable post you have a substance abuse problem. God can cure you of the pain that drives you there. Peace

[TheMeanAdmin]

@catchrnthkudzu The most remarkable thing is I eschew any abusable "substances" heavier than caffeine, including alcohol and nicotine. That allows me such a feat as remarkable as spelling "unintelligible" correctly even without an autocorrector.

I wish God would start curing those who believe into him of at least terminal levels of stupidity - I would willingly sacrifice my chance at salvation for such a miracle...

[catchrnthkudzu]

@TheMeanAdmin Seeking God is an intellectual persuit. A two deminsional being could not conceive of "up" and "down". He would perceive only a small part of a 3 dimensional being in his universe. Such is our observable relationship with God. The scientific position that natural laws govern the behavior of every particle in the universe except humans is the questionable logic. It allows Statist kooks to intrude on the human freedoms that flow from God.

[Maxdwolf]

@catchrnthkudzu From what I've seen of Scripture, God/Jesus was a statist.

"The scientific position that natural laws govern the behavior of every particle in the universe except humans is the questionable logic." Erm, that's not the scientific position, to the degree that one can say there even is one.

[catchrnthkudzu]

@Maxdwolf My point is not a written standard but the practical result of scientific rigor. Observing the unknown/unexpected, quantum physicists don't describe the phenomenon as divine intervention but as natural law not yet understood. Mankind thrives under conditions opposed by statists, truth, liberty, self determination, life sanctity, endowed by God. A glance at the EU and US shows the disharmony and strife caused by statist leaders rejecting human nature and God. They are utter kooks

[Maxdwolf]

@catchrnthkudzu "Mankind thrives under conditions opposed by statists, truth, liberty, self determination, life sanctity, endowed by God." 1) No evidence that these were endowed by God, particularly if you're not going by scripture. EU and US disharmony and strife is still head and shoulders about the rest of the world, largely thanks to secular measures. What precisely do you mean by life sanctity and how does anarchy support it?

[catchrnthkudzu]

@Maxdwolf 1)According to the US Constitution all men are endowed by their Creator with "certain inalienable rights"... "life, liberty and the persuit of happiness". The things I mentioned fall under this document. Murdering fetuses with tax funds over-reaches gov authority under the "life" clause. Your narrative that things would be worse in the EU/US if not for statism/Marxism is wrong. Name ONE example of successful Marxist/statist ideology. They end in Berlin Walls, roundups and mass graves

[Maxdwolf]

@catchrnthkudzu 1)That's the Declaration of Independence, and even that only speaks of men so technically a sexist document.. 2) A fetus is not a human being, For several weeks it is barely more than tissue. The funny thing is, even the bible doesn't say otherwise. 3) How many roundups and mass graves has the European Union experienced? Or the US? 4) If statism = Marxism, neither US nor EU qualify.

[lazerbeam134]

@catchrnthkudzu The document you quoted was the Declaration of Independence, which was written as a letter to the Monarchy and Parliament of Britain, as an explanation that the people of the American colonies were to form their own state, and the reasons why. The US Constitution was created many years later as a means to fix the issues of the governmental model set by the Articles of Confederation. History, learn some.

[catchrnthkudzu]

@lazerbeam134 True, but the implied concept of limited government remains a powerful part of the American psyche.

[lazerbeam134]

@catchrnthkudzu Yes, which is why the government shouldn't be in control of an individual woman's body. Or a man's for that matter, but when the issue is abortion, it really is women being controlled by prohibition. Just so we're clear, the government gives money to programs like Planned Parenthood because of the social good they do with the services they provide. This doesn't come with a mandate of authority on what those org's do. No one is forced to have an abortion.

[catchrnthkudzu]

@lazerbeam134 Liberal gov gives money, opportunity and glory only to those organizations which support the lib agenda. In this case, irresponsible consensual sex supposedly void of guilt. Is that a woman/man being in control of her/his body or is it a false message of liberal ideology? Self-serving lib ideals are acceptable to elites who can buy their way out of repercusions but don't transfer well to the masses they claim to adore. The regime is trying to mandate Catholic Church contraception

[Maxdwolf]

@catchrnthkudzu Don't know why your reply isn't showing, so I'll reply here. 1) Women's suffrage is not a "lesbian agenda". It is a basic human right. Arguing that that cage is a gilded one does not support your position. 2) Abortion is not a convenience. It's not something you get at the mall on a whim. 3) That Greece went nuts and is suffering for it does not support the notion that we should flip entirely over to voodoo economics.

[lazerbeam134]

@Maxdwolf Especially when said voodoo economics caused our own financial crisis.

[lazerbeam134]

@catchrnthkudzu I am speaking as one of the masses, and "irresponsible consensual sex supposedly void of guilt" is YOUR idea of what is going on. Says a lot about you, I think. Repressed much? Anyway, that being said, consensual sex with any partner that arouses sounds like two people in control of their bodies to me. But you probably believe in "traditional" marriage, you know the contractual rape of a woman, in the name of the "family".

[Maxdwolf]

@catchrnthkudzu 1) They didn't allow for women's suffrage either. They were wrong about lots of stuff, like you are about femininity and masculinity. 2) Well, its a good thing no one uses it as such. Shall I take it that you are ok with early term abortion then? 3&4) I'll take the violence we are experiencing over the hell we would if the conservatives had their way. How far is Greece from a "roundup"? Pretty far I'd say.

[mphello]

@Maxdwolf BRAVO! FINALLY, someone speaks the truth.

Worth repeating.

=I'll take the violence we are experiencing over the hell we would if the conservatives had their way=

[louloubabe97]

@mphello same here!!!

[Pilaf1984]

@catchrnthkudzu Obama and Tony Blair have both publicly defended "faith based initiatives". Great example of atheists there. Not.

[LokcedUot]

@bongolongo He ends it by warning us all of "mr. whippy men". (I'm American, what.)

[skevoid]

@LokcedUot Mr Whippy is an icecream van franchise.

[Ganzedijker]

@bongolongo they are not called Christians, but the Pharisæus, My hero is a moslim comedian btw.

[Reaperman64]

@bongolongo If you havent listened to The cataracts of Sams mum, go, go now! Its One of his best songs

[Jord3W]

2:04 I cum erm, i like cum

[Shaun17170]

good said Garp

[SerialOfSam]

@MrPeanut273 your not born with intelligence, you gain it (or you don't) from exposure to information and a lack of narcissism. Your opinions will probably be similar to those around you because those opinions have developed and transformed through your interactions with those people. That's why we have stereotypes, large masses of people with similar intellect and opininons

[RainbowsRockets]

"A slightly racist rain dance"

[TheRealHumMyName]

He never wears shoes does he? :P

[0TheGuru0]

@dunbar9finger the real issue is that english has, since the 14th century, been defined by RP, oxford english and the oxford dictionary. This means that even if english changes-which it does and always has-british english is true english and american english is a deviation. It isn't a criticism, I couldn't care less, but it is a fact.

[captainjailbait]

If he's the one playing the pedophilia jingle, I'll get in the van with no questions asked.

[shaneac9]

@captainjailbait FAGGOT !

[skevoid]

@shaneac9 Firstly, you don't even know the gender of the person you're abusing, secondly, pretty much everyone enjoying a Tim Minchin video will be open minded enough that they won't be particularly offended by the idea of being gay.

[shaneac9]

@skevoid firstly fuck you secondly FUCK OFF ! HAHA 

[ZenCodeMonkey]

@snaredrum110 You hitting the crack pipe?

[DR01D5]

wow he even used the term post hoc ergo propter hoc correctly. (as opposed to cum hoc ergo propter hoc in which time is irrelevant)

[lisabschmidt]

I want to party with this guy and Russel Brand. At the same time. That would pretty much complete my life.

[xShakespearex]

@snaredrum110 I don't understand your comment... I'm honestly looking at it and it's just a big pile of shit - it does not make sense in any way, shape or form. Are you high?

[RangaBeast]

Guys if you dont like it dont watch it, doesnt that make more sense than bitching over a video comment section?

[666makes1happydevil]

@RangaBeast Not really, considering this video is about human logic this will be sort of on topic. See, people like negative things. We crave them. Check out the news paper every day and you'll see - the big sellers usually revolve around tradgedies and misfortunes. So for everyone who craves a hit of negativity, where better to go than the center of all negative things ever? That's right. Youtube comments.

[MrPeanut273]

I have to say lol to all you over fanatic religious nutjobs and I say this being a catholic but I'm not freakin blind it's obvious that somethings in the Bible are metaphoric and said literaly sound retarded so grow a sense of humour or simply continue to be a redneck criacionism believer with a brain from the medieval age.

[dunbar9finger]

@MrPeanut273 What's even more ridiculous is to take sections of the Bible that are obviously outright false and then trying to rescue the Bible's reputation by claiming they were merely meant metaphorically rather than the simpler explanation that they were made up by humans who at best were mistaken and at worst were liars.

[FabiotheTurtle]

I like how he's barefoot.

[ZenCodeMonkey]

snaredrum110 Is a Troll and a poor one at that. LOL

[ZenCodeMonkey]

@snaredrum110 Yet you are here....

[beanodonnell]

can someone translate what a raike(spelling??) RAY-kee is into american

[ModernDear]

@beanodonnell I assume he's talking about a reiki, there's a wiipedia page on it.

[Vineirys]

@beanodonnell ... *face palm*. We speak English, darling. English. American English is a dialect.

[beanodonnell]

@Vineirys yes but british english and american english have so many differnt versions of slang that the language is very distant over time this will lead to a separation of the language and there are many british terms that americans don't know about i try and learn all of them i also learn old english and the etymology of the language asking for something to be localized doesn't make me stupid think before u post

[dunbar9finger]

@beanodonnell And the other frustrating thing about Brits claiming American English is a deviation from the default is that actual professional linguists will tell you that many "Americanisms" are actually old British terms that were better preserved in the New World than they were in the Old World. In other words, Modern English is *also* just as much of a deviation from the language that existed back before the two forked.

[RebelsAreWe]

@beanodonnell Since it appeared no one told you... Reiki is a Japanese technique for reducing stress and helping relaxation that also supposedly promotes healing. They "lay hands" on you and it's all to do with unseen "life force energy" that flows through people. If someone's "life force energy" is low, then they are more inclined to get sick or be stressed out. Also, it's a load of shit. :P

[MrMoterhed]

Ignore or SPAM the pile o shit troll known as "snaredrum110" It's only existence is to attract flies..........don't be one. Thanks for your cooperation and have a great day!!

[666makes1happydevil]

@snaredrum110 Yes. You're so talented that you need to leech off Minchins crowd to get any attention.

[thisismynamehahaha]

@snaredrum110 Your retardation is almost poetic...

[thisismynamehahaha]

@snaredrum110 No, trolls usually put more effort into their retardation than you do. You remind me of a guy I fired once.

[thisismynamehahaha]

@snaredrum110 Wow, you're bad at this. You're an embarrassment all the good trolls out there.

[thisismynamehahaha]

@snaredrum110 Your opinion is worth less then the amount of money I would spend to keep you alive.

[8DX]

@snaredrum110 If this were my channel, you'd get the hook.

[8DX]

@snaredrum110 Asshat troll.

[PhoTC]

@8DX And he's not even good at it.

[rkwlamb]

According to Minchin "Science adjusts its views based on what's observed. Faith is the denial of observation, so that belief can be preserved." In contrast, according to Hebrews 11, "faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. [And] anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."

[clancym1]

@rkwlamb well if you've noticed, over the years religion has changed. it was once a way to explain existence, then it became a way to spread power, a way to keep people in line, a motivation for war, and many other things.

faith was once the confidence you speak of, but it is now simply a tool to guide the blind.

you'll also notice that jesus wasn't a homophobic zealot, and never even claimed to be the son of god. the new testament isn't about him to most; it's about dumbfucks like leviticus.

[dunbar9finger]

@rkwlamb How is that "in contrast" to what Tim said? It supports exactly what Tim Minchin said.

[clancym1]

@snaredrum110 before you go on, it's after this comment i realized you were "trolling."

but i might as well inform you that acting stupid doesn't make you a troll, it just makes you look like a fucking idiot. you're the only one laughing, and you will be the only one to laugh at your shitty jokes unless you change your definition of trolling on the internet.

[kisamehoshigaki09]

That song is mating call of the catholic priest... lol

[kisamehoshigaki09]

bennyhennyp is a certified jackass.

[bennyhennyp]

@snaredrum110 If only you had a proper education, you'd realise that this fellow is quite funny.

[XxmetalXpoisonxX]

@bennyhennyp He's just being a troll don't feed him...

[andokel]

Tim should have tought my 1st year statistics class. I would have paid more attention lol :-p Love it!

[clancym1]

@snaredrum110 it's more likely that they just haven't heard of him and that your opinion is solely yours because you're fucking stupid.

[ZenCodeMonkey]

@snaredrum110 Your opinion is of course yours... And very well only yours.

[MelancholyKoala]

I think you should change the name to mateing call of the kidy fiddeler

[NewGenerationAnarchy]

RUSSEL BRAND?

[Celebrintal]

"...systematically killing babys " LOOOOL

[TimoMcD]

After every joke, the audience sounds like they are electrically humming in unison with a few humans laughing.

[Ariuq94]

He kind of looks baked XD 

[MrZoobidibop]

@snaredrum110 if he doesn't have talent, who does? did you at some point in this video feel like he was being racist or bias? Of course he is going to, I haven't seen a comedian that doesn't have some bias jokes up his sleeve. Why do you have so much hate?

[xXChloeJayneXx]

okay. fair enough you people have your opinions sure, but keep them in your own head, Tim Minchin is funny, talented and extremely clever, but of course, that is my opinion, if you have any negative comments Tim Minchin, then please excuse yourself from this video because you will just get as much hate as you put in.

[akear1]

@snaredrum110 Why the fuck do you watch so many of Tim's videos if you are going to bitch and fight with people? Jesus Christ get a life fuck-stick.

[etowngftddummy]

I'm laughing harder at the way the audience sounds than what Tim's saying, hahaha.

[melhope]

Hmm. I always thought ice cream truck drivers sold drugs. Maybe that's an American thing.

[dunbar9finger]

@melhope Don't believe everything you see in Grand Theft Auto.

[silverulv]

Where is this from?

[wizard2160]

Lol the mating call of the kiddy fiddler

Can hear that 20 times and still laugh

[CylonAndrew]

and then the native american indians do a slightly racist rain dance

[courtsmcfly]

''Come on kids, it's the paedophillia jingle...''

LMFAO!

[SlightlyMishapen]

Does the laughing crowd sound like an Autobot having a chuckle, or is that just me?

[Lehooooo]

@SlightlyMishapen It's not just you…

[PackRunner3]

hahahah cum hauker hahah yeah idk how to spell it

[izzyGO52]

@snaredrum110 I'm British, Tim is Australian and I have no idea what you are (American/Asian etc???) but we're all awesome!!! Exactly as you said! No hate, but Christmas sucks... so yeh :)
