I live just over the road from United's ground, I hate them though, because I'm a Chesterfield fan and we largely hate everyone.

Chesterfield are a joke though, aren't they?

No, they need a kick up the arse, but they're definitely not a joke - 7th in the table isn't bad. Now Mansfield, they're a joke - 2nd to bottom.

Go to a local open mic night and do ten minutes, then say that anyone can do it.

On topic: Shit on my cock.

What's difficult about it barring the nerves?

It's not as if the majority of stand-ups are actually funny, I mean look at Eddie Izzard, Peter Kay and Ricky Gervais...

You've named three stand ups. Do you know how many THOUSANDS more there are? That's hardly the majority.

Here's yer education. The two best stand ups in Britain today...

That doesn't change the fact that stand-up is still poor in comparison to other mediums of comedy, sit-coms and what not. Personally, I'd imagine having to script an entire series that has to be funny to be a bit harder than doing more or less the same routine but in different venues over and over again.

I was gonna put a link up to Jim Jeffries but you beat me to it. That guy is fucking pure awesome! The joke about the sex toys is awesome.

"I've gotta tell ya... I've looked better!"

Also, Ed Byrne is brilliant too. Then for anyone who thinks stand up is shit and easy, there's Billy Connolly who can talk about anything and make it funny.
