Zizek Receives a Phonecall From God

[kisame21]

Genious!!! And so on and so on....

[parkbudi]

hahahaha....it's so smart funny joke

[renumeratedfrog]

This guy should have lived in 1918's Russia... Maybe then Stalin would have been prevented from seizing power.

[theruggednorth]

does this guy do blow?

[wiseFoolsDies2]

Priceless...This is great! For us Jews, it's a local call... LOL! Thanks pixelator30 for the translation. I'll have to remember this joke.

[constablecomfortable]

@havabighed Sorry you took offence, it was meant as a joke, English sense of humour strikes again. But you raised an interesting point. You asked me if I knew how much people get paid to make phones and what if the guy was on minimum wage.

I ask YOU, do you know WHY people get paid peanuts to make this stuff and WHY a person has to work in a 'hard-labour' job for minimum wage? Listen to Zizek a bit more, read Das Kapital and come back with the right questions. Smash the system, not my face.

[havabighed]

@constablecomfortable I agree that the system needs change... but it doesnt fix that I am 29 and have a bad back.

Ive heard stories of professors actually smashing phones of students, and if it happened to me. I cant guarantee that I wouldnt lash out.

First I would demand that they buy me a new phone. If they refused, THEN I would take revenge.

Minimum wage isnt the only problem, but we need a maximum wage too. High salaries drive prices up. The problem is too complex for 500 characters.

[havabighed]

'Slavoj Zizek talk at Birkbeck is interrupted by a mobile phone and instead of smashing the phone to pieces(as I would have done), brilliantly improvises in his own inimitable way. God bless you."

And I would have smashed your face in if you smashed my property.

Do you know how little those people get paid to make this technology?

And how do you know I wasnt working a hard-labor minimum wage job to buy it?

like I said... I would have smashed your face in if you smashed my property.

[cpt1chris]

a mouth is too primitive of a communicator for this guy. he needs like 10 mouths to get it out.

[slickrickdarula]

@cpt1chris language is the limit of the human brain

[mostrolopo]

No, seriously. Is he high? or how come he seems to uneasy and touching his nose repeteadly...repeatedly...

[alliant]

@mostrolopo

cause he feels like it lol

WHY YOU DOIN THAT MAN? WHY ARE YOU DOIN THAT? MAKES ME UNCOMFORTABLE, STOP DOING IT MAN. CUT IT OUT MAN, WHY ARE YOU DOING THAT?

[ViperRob42]

@mostrolopo have you seen any of his videos? HES ALWAYS DOING THAT

[slickvguy]

This guy is a) brilliant, b)extremely mentally ill. The two often go hand in hand. Good joke / sense of humour.

[shessohiigh]

AHAHAHHA <3

[shantih433]

Any time I want to feel tired and worn out, I just watch a clip of Zizek.

[lampajoo]

Is he on coke? Seriously, does he do coke? cause he keeps touching his nose and can't shut up.

[thetelomere]

[Jadabh3]

[DarySLO]

[TwelveBells]

Transcription, Part 2

Then he calls God, but looks at the bill. It looks horrible. A million dollar per minute. He furiously calls Israel, "we're giving you all this money and you're spending it on this?!". And you know the Israeli answer? For us Jews, it is a local call.

[pixelator30]

Transcription, part 1

American president, Nixon or whoever, doesn't matter, visits Israel. And sees there, on the prime minister's table, apart from the usual phones, a blue phone. "What is this blue phone?" They tell him it's a phone to call God. Then, Clinton I think it was, returns furiously to USA, they have it, why can't I have it. And he orders CIA, or FBI, that they deliver the phone.

[spartan2600]

"God bless you."

Ironic I presume.

rosmarinusofficialis - try harder and stop demanding spon feeding service

[inside0ut37]

"for us it's a local call"

[rosmarinusofficialis]

Pity I could only understand every fifth word of what he was saying.

[topher01]

@rosmarinusofficialis Same here.  I also thought he might be coked out of his mind. He's obviously brilliant but very distracting to watch or listen to.

[JaneTennison]

My nose..
