to find Frankie Boyle hilarious?

[dolldaggabuzzbuzz]

I am a fan of Frankie Boyle. I am going to see him live this autumn. I'm a bit scared cos I'll be sitting near the front - I hope he doesn't pick on me! AIBU?

1/10

is it easter hols yet?

Yep.

Each to their own - I think he is disgusting!

And yes, if I was near the front I would be very scared!

mmmmmmmmmmmm..........he has a fan?

That's great. He must have fans. You couldn't get a tattoo or something could you? It would save me time. Sometimes you can spend ages conversing with someone before you realise they are a bigot.

Let's ignore this and go off on a slight tangent... what do people think of the pub landlord, whatever his name is. I watched him the other day and couldn't beleive how horrendously seist and racist he is... I mean, i know that's all part of the 'comedy' but it's really crap.

Are you really frankie boyle?

is that the prick guy that slagged Katie Price's son?

Which part of his sexist, disablist, racist rantings do you find hilarious?

I used to like him but he last live show disgusted me tbh.

I found him amusing on mock the week. His stand up far less so, as his comedy comes from insulting people, including minorities.

I liked him on Mock The Week... BUT he goes too far for my liking. Much like the ever so misogynistic Jimmy Carr...

He was vaguely funny on Mock the Week but his own show was utter crap. It was so bad it was actually embarrassing.

I did like him on Mock The Week. However, he was heavily restricted/edited on that show. Since he has left his true colours have made themselves known, I feel. He just tries to shock, so imo he isn't getting laughs through being amusing. People seem to be laughing in a 'OMG I can't believe he said that!' type of way. A comedy style I grew out of at around 13, IIRC.

offensive, unpleasant, vile stuff aside, he's just not very funny. In my humble opinion. John Bishop and Mickey Flanagan, however, are very funny live.

Yep, some of his jokes are hilarious, he owns my favourite joke.

I disliked his tramadol nights series, it was too grotesque for me - thought there was much worse than the Katie price joke. One sketch actually made me cry.

I thought he was brilliant on mock the week.

I couldn't go and watch him now in case it was like the tramadol nights stuff. I'd have to walk out.

Which joke, Laurie?

Pub landlord is taking the piss out of racists tho, isnt it?
Arent we laughing at him, not with him?

Frankie Boyle, too cruel to be funny.

Actually it's two.

They said mel Gibson couldn't play a Scot. And look at him now .............. An alcoholic racist.

Man walks into a pub in Glasgow and asks for a pint of lager and lime.
Barman: we don't do cocktails.

Appeals to my weegie sense of humour

That what i think sunshine we're laughing at him. The Pub Landlord is, in effect, a charactor played by Al Murry. If you watch Al Murry doing stand up as himself it is totally different. I personally find both very funny but think Frankie Boyle is an absolute disgrace. Can't stand him. And I bet it was the 'something wee hing' or something like that which made Laurie cry. It was completely repulsive. Sickening.

So who do people like then?

My favorite is Bill Bailey, I've seen him live no swearing, no sex jokes, only ridicules ignorance and still funny and brilliant.
