Wet Liberal weekly no. 3

[TillieMoon]

The opening always takes me by surprise and freaks me out :O

Fabulous show Rob :D

[PurpleFunnyChocolate]

I get offended when I hear people or comedians making fun of autism (Because my brother is severely autistic) but I don't sue everyone, I'm just one person. There's no point, just let them do it and I'll live with the knowledge it's NOT funny. It's true that at the moment you can't say certain words anymore. But, do homosexuals know that 'gay' is becoming a bullying word? "That's Gay" is starting to be a popular comment at my school. So it's not too good, it's considered AWFUL to be called gay!

[PurpleFunnyChocolate]

It seems like everybody in England hates Gordon Brown (understandably so) So does that mean the whole of Scotland voted for him/ If not, who did and why is he in charge?

[richman02392]

you dont know how crap they are till there in charge

[Cloud6556]

They just lie to you so they can get in and then you cant get them out ¬_¬

[deejaydoubleyoo]

Bob, great vids as always but two quick points.

1) Even though you are trying hard not to be your Dad by blurting things out before you have had chance to process them, at least you have learnt to be a bigger person and apologize about it.

2) Being PC is fine in the circumstances that you mentioned but it's when it goes to far I have a problem with it. For example calling a black board a chalk board! It's black and it's a board, it's a black board. You are not demeaning someone!!!

[Cloud6556]

I'd love a black guy to call me a white board id laugh in his face, your right its not offensive to anyone, it couldnt possibly be :\

[psymon2005]

Great Vvdeo's Rob, and great to see Red Dwarf again.

Just a note, every video where you use this camera angle/mic set up, it makes the sound pan to the left when using headphones (which i do a lot)

I don't suppose you have any way of getting it centered in future?

If you have been, thanks for reading. :D

[PurpleFunnyChocolate]

Robert, have you seen any of the 'Smeg-outs' of Red Dwarf on YouTube? You're FABULOUS and so funny!

[Cloud6556]

if a black person called me white id say "..yes..its more of a pinky white but none the less your right.." when did robbie call mr brown a one eyed scottish twat, i thought that was jeremy clarkson.

[philjc54]

He was saying it with his tongue firmly lodged in his cheek, jamfabulous.

[spiralisedcat]

Its great the way you apologise a few rants later :D.

[mustymodo]

robbie coltrane didn't mind being called cracker,

not only that he is scottish as well,

though he is not a giant twat like gordon brown is.

[jamfabulous]

You've just given people the right to call white people derogatory terms which to be honest, I don't think anybody should be allowed to do, being that it's quite rude considering white people now are hardly to blame for previous bouts of racial hatred which their forefathers ensued.

[gnoxycat]

ROFL I'm a Hungarian by birth and is a naturalized citizen in the US and I LOVE to call myself a Honky. We are the original Honky's who took jobs even cheaper then the newly freed slaves in the US and I think its great that its used as a derogatory word. Because really when they call someone a Honky they are calling them Hungarians and that somehow is a bad thing when your black =)

[ragtag2]

Left / Right, depends where you live

[BeckyRoseI]

Gordon Brown IS a Scottish twat. It's just the fact that he's Scottish is not the reason that he is a twat.

I don't think heritage has any merit in the use of words in the PC debate, because heritage implies you are your racial stereotype - which would be racist.

The basis for racism, or indeed any prejudice, is judgmentalism and or intent to cause harm.

If one denied me my right to marry because i'm gay then one isbeing oppressive. One may even be able to justify it, but it is oppression.

[dsb456]

Tourettes?

[HarrysBar]

First Bobby I think your channel is great, just a word about the banks though, I hope you did not mean all banking staff got what they deserved. Many of those being made redundant now are low paid bank workers who have been let down by the piggies at the top or the rest of the swine working for giant bonuses in the City, on Wall Street, in Dubai and the rest of the Gucci fueled bear pits of the world. That said keep up the wet liberal vids, cheers Harry

[bakura23]

i'm rather amazed how polital corectnese has changed, because i was watching an episode of "monkey" on youtube (something like 3rd or 4th episode) and there is a where monkey chase's a demoned and once the demoned espace's monkey say's "oy, coward, sissy, puffter", and i was shocked thinking, this is a kid's show isn't it, can thay realy say that.

[AnalogRIP]

Being scottish i was a tad offended with the scottish twat comment, but then i thought about it and i came to the conclusion that you were 100 percent accurate in you assesement of formentioned Scottish pillock. Further more I think most English and Scottish people have been brought up with a certain degree of disrespect for each other but only the ignorant truly hate someone just because of there race, were all the same man, but iv got a much bigger dick than all of you!!!!!!

[siskygod]

Ok so you got a bit of a 'waffle' going towards the end, but still, some good points. But isn't it interesting how people who constantly harp on about political correctness, are themselves, going against political correctness! What a tricky concept it can be...so I agree with Our Lord, Billy Connolly..."when women decide they want to be up their armpits in SHIT, then, we'll call it a 'person-hole cover'...but until then, it's a fucking 'manhole cover'!!!!"

[dsb456]

Excellent use of the gospel according to Billy Connolly!

[squalloogal]

I am so glad he told us what was on the computer it was driving me nuts. I thought it said "Smegheads Guide to Pie".3.14 Blah blah blah. Now that I have that off my chest.Can't believe how brilliant Mr llew is. To be of his generation andnprofile and still able to admit he has made an error,fess up to it,keep his backbone,stay true to the jist of his rant is brilliant. I really can't think of 1 other person in the public eye like him.The more I see and hear from the more I admire the man.Legend.

[Gestamptemuisjes]

This isn't Liberal, its the justification of a bully.

Be as critically forthright as you like to people, if they deserve it, without worrying about if they are black, gay like me, mormon, royal. Same goes for institutions too . Lay it on!

To allow gay people, or any group to get away with something just because they are, is stupid behaviour, and a whole lot of other things too.

Just leave out the personal, bullying words. You don't need them. They just demean - you, and your victim.

[daz71]

"Rectum? It blew their flipping legs off!"

[blondehootie]

Excellent !

[greg1912]

On the money as usual Llewellyn! Really enjoying this Wet Liberal Weekly stuff.

[executiverocker]

Rob, please release the smeghead guide to IT :D even if it takes you a little bit, I look forward to reading it!

[matthews827]

lol very good!

[joshboy1st]

you cant even say boo to someone whithout getting your head betten off! well said rob

[Ichinin]

I would never describe myself as a "Stupid Swede" or "Koskenkorva drinking Finn" (I got 50% of each), because that would legitemize the words.

And then if i accepted a friend to call med that (you know, friend to friend and nothing hostile ment about it) and someone overheard it, there would be a shitstorm that my friend had to fight.

I dont judge people how they look or where they come from, i judge them by their actions. If someone is an idiot - i will make sure they know how i feel.

[thestalkinghead]

i as a white person am actually a bit offended when black people use the N word, because now it is like backwards racism, where cirtain races can do or say things that others cant, rather than cuttain races cant do or say things that others cant.

[TomBandfield]

Lol, you just keep gettin yerself into trouble with yer big mouth don't ya?! Haha no worries, it's happened to me before too :D

Another great installment of Wet Liberal Weekly. If you're going to do a vid about political correctness, I'd love to hear about your opinions of the dreaded 'C word', cause as both a wet liberal and a great fan of this word, some people's attitudes towards this word puzzle me a fair bit. :S

[iggy35]

Is Frank Carson racist?? He was always talking about crackers!

[Betalgeuse]

Good one!!

[bobbyllew]

It's weird when you tube doesn't release a vid that you put up. WLW no 2 is uploaded and waiting some form of clearance for take off. I can see it, annoying as number 3 makes more sense if you've seen number 2. May put it up again to see if that works.

[WillEyedOney]

Sounds like a lame excuse.

Slacker wet liberal more like!!!

:)

[lukeyboy37]

at the end of the day if things are said in a nasty way then it's wrong but if ment as a joke for a laff then no probs i say people have to stop thinking about what is said as being wrong and try to see the funny side of what that person is trying to make funny if it is ment in a jokeing way

[OminousVoice]

I'm beginning to see where the angerless Rimmer came from in 'Polymorph'.

[hartnell114]

i try not to see people as being any different from eachother,if people arent taught black from white,we'll all be dandy

[keltoi2000]

Left/ Right does NOT make any sense anymore- a relic of the cold war/ the 60's/ the baby-boomers.

Another terrific rant! Keep it up.

[no1getzs0da]

I haven't heard Barack pronounced like that before.

[Textra1]

I am deeply offended by this video. Your lack of empathy and consideration for the deaf and non-English speaking people of YouTube is prejudicial, insensitive and simply will not be tolerated.

We at 'People for the Requirement of Appropriate Text Subtitles', demand the immediate inclusion of text transcripts of all YouTube videos, to be rendered in five of the most commonly used languages and displayed on all future videos posted.

You have been warned!

[SethReturns]

(P)eople for the (R)equirement of (A)ppropriate (T)ext (S)ubtitles

lol Funny

[Textra1]

I see from the down thumbs that nobody got the joke. *sigh*

Everyone tells me I have a strange sense of humour. I guess they're right. ^^

[Steve7508]

no really, some of my best friends are Scottish... like er.... er.... whatshisname.

p.s. I read an article that said Obama isn't a dove, but he's a more intelligent kind of hawk. Which would be an improvement.

[IceP2006]

I've just watched it all the way through and heard your apology.

Very much appreciated but I must say my original comment on that video was suupose to be tongue in cheeck.

As in, Gordon Brown is a twat and making all the Scots look bad. I was offended to be associated with him - not with your actually statment.

A twat because hes a twat, not cos hes Scots

Political correctness is a joke, it wouldn't exist if it wasn't for people like Gordon Brown

Bobbyllew For Prime Minister !!

[forcecarrier]

During the election the other side continually referred to Obama as left wing because that is the most defaming and scary thing they can say about anyone. But that was just absurd right-wing name calling.

It's clear that as a thinking person, BA can't be pigeonholed. There is nothing to suggest he is ideological. I do think he has ideals.

[IceP2006]

Thank for another vid Mr Llewellyn

But wheres Wet Liberal weekly no. 2 ?

[m001900]

aaaa another vid :> *makes cup of coffee, lights cig*

[BaubleRob]

Thank you for listening? I'm deaf, you insensitive bastard.

[JohnHutch]

loved the vid. Always great to watch

[gratex]

One of the stupidest things I've ever heard was an American TV presenter referring to a black Englishman as an "African-American".

There's no thought involved in this PC stuff.

[pennylaneuk]

I love your videos . Theyre always so thought provoking. By the way did you know you were on Harry Hills TV Burp this week? It was hilarious lol.

Penny x

[mooxim]

surely you're allowed to say n word as long as you're not calling anyone an n word and just talking about the word. hmm not sure, I'd best change that to n word.

[geordieboy56]

nice video, although i was slightly distracted at the beginning by the ad at the bottom asking me -

"Big Wet Fannies - thinking of buying? compare prices at blahblahblah"

[Kabuki0009]

There are a lot of pop-up adds on your video what's up with that? *****stars;)

[NegPhil]

Howdy Bob, I'm loven the WLW. I get the thing about the Scottish joke. The English certainly have some bad karma there. Then again,as we Americans say, "Fuck em if they can't take a joke."

[gratex]

It's never used as a joke, though. It's used as a weapon.

[mk2passat]

good to see another WLW, thought this died on its ass after the first one!

[emmab2006]

Exellent video once again , Robert .. and ...Err !!! dont u mean number 2 not 3 :S

[bobbyllew]

there is a number 2. It's been uploaded, I guess it will appear soonish.

[weirdstuffanimation6]

[spittingimage4005]
