Aaaarrrggh, NO you weren't supposed to AGREE. Otherwise it WILL be closed down, and I like this thread. Remember democracy. Where two or more agree, threads are closed down.
'We're learning songs for baby Jesus' birthday. His mum and dad were Merry and Joseph. He had a bed made of clay and the three kings bought him Gold, Frankenstein and Merv as presents.'
What is more ethical? Me asking Vedderlution for her services in order to ENHANCE my comedy, or Dunkman going to her because he never even had an act in the first place?
I've been running around on these boards for three fucking years now and I still get refered to as a "her". I'm offended.

LOL really? Man I'm sorry. I think it's the 'baby' on the end of your name. Too much time spent in chat rooms as a teenager.

Seriously though Dunk, I'm pretty interested in stuff you've done. Anything I might've seen? I'm new to this comedy malarkey. People have always said I'm pretty funny, but I have the self-confidence of a barnacle.
you won't have seen anything as the bastards rejected my 2 pilots :mad:
but on an upnote (sorta) I was asked to re-submit stuff for sketches, etc. based on very short scenes... it would appear i can write funny jokes and shite, but i do struggle a bit with plot, character, pace, etc... the usual writing "rules". So in my last letter back they asked me to do some more gems of mirth
So i have sent off sketch ideas, and hopefully they/one might be used... ideally i'd like to something on my own... but i'll persevere regardless..
oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

I was surprised when he referred to you a her because, after all, you were threatening mal-intent to HLF's kneecaps!!!! A lady wouldn't say that... they would threaten harm to another part of the body!!!!

hahaha. no it's cool. I just rack it up to me being so sexy that eveyone wants to fuck me. Including guys. That's why they gotta imagine me as a girl. Cause they don't wanna have gay thoughts.

Interesting. I've finished a novel, so story is my strong point. The question is can I make one funny. What sort of comedy do you like? My wife and I are heavily into the Mighty Boosh and Black Books at the moment.

You hit a nerve there and it cut like a knife. You hit the biggest nerve in my body, actually.

This sort feels like in primary school when your mates were trying to get you and a girl to get together when she was in the same room listening.

But somehow I think it is a name that Dunk would be proud to bear :rolleyes:
f***man is a beeyute name!!!!

I've always been more into stand-ups.. Izzard is my surrealist favourite, but even he learned his trade from the master... Billy Connolly. he practically invented the genre as we know it.
Sitcome wise its always been Blackadder for me... pure genius!!!

so sarcasm doesn't need to be spelled in real-life... but i just typed it... and i'm in real-life!

Looks like you two are meant for each other.. what would the 'partnership' be called? harmlessDunk? f***man??? Gotta think of that!
EDIT: f***man sounds a bit too superhero-ish!
Push Me Pull Me
its a good idea... with my comic brilliance and hlf's wheelchair getting us past the equal opportunities crap then we'd definitely make it... :cool:
and then once we'd made it and were fabulously rich and famous i'd buy an office at the top of a big long hill

Actually, I'm only recently realising I like stand-up myself. Spent my whole life not giving it a chance; just discovered late night Paramount Comedy and I'm loving it. I need to figure out who I like. At the moment, I know I like dark, surreal, dead-pan, alternative stuff. We just bought the new Mighty Boosh live dvd and it's hysterical.
Actually I agree with you about preferring stand up to comedy drama. As far as ME doing it is concerned, I am a confident writer, but I quake trying to tell a joke to even my wife in person. I'd love to eventually be confident enough to do standup; I just think it'll take time.
I'd love to discover a comedian who is actually shy. Know of any?

I've never seen Josh Blue. Hang on a sec. I'll go and visit youtube.

F***man sounds like the name of a feminist superhero.
I'd go for 'Harmless little man' myself. Kind of like Woody Allen minus the personality and wit. You find these unassuming, ball-less types in all churches and Star trek conventions the world over. The world would be the same place without them.

I was asking because he has cerebral palsy and a big part of his act was making jokes about. Obviously no one had a problem laughing with him about it, cause he won last comic standing
Have you listened to any of the Derek and Clive stuff?
My Dad used to have the tapes and a lot of Goons tapes as well ... may have to go on a hunt as haven't listened to any of that in years
Derek and Clive made me the mentalist I am today. I studied them with vigour, gusto, and much mirth in my formative years. Ad Nauseum was my bible.
Derek and Clive and Bill Hicks are the funniest things I've ever seen/heard. Chris Morris - Brass eye & The Day Today - also ranks up there somwhere.

We could count up to a hundred billion, but we would not. They have clusters of galaxies, and then there's big, big bits of nothing, so it's awesome, yeah?. The universe is awesome using the original version, the meaning of the word awesome, yeah? Not the new one which is sort of for socks and hot dogs: "Hey! Red and yellow - awesome! You got red and yellow socks, they're awesome!" You know. But if they were you'd be (gasps). I saw an advert for 'awesome hot dogs, only $2.99'. If they were awesome you'd be going, (gasping for breath) "I can not… breathe for the way the sausage is held by the bun. It is… it is speaking to me. It is saying 'we are lips and thighs… of a donkey. Please eat us… but do not think that we are lips when you eat us, otherwise you'll throw up'." Which is true! It's awesome!...
