to ask if to ask why men have a better sense of humour than women?

[mdowdall]

Was discussing this with my mate in the pub earlier. Why are women just not as funny (generally speaking) as men? Where are all the great women comedians? I can only think of Victoria Wood and that chubby one with the grey hair. It's just weird.

You say you've read Brooker and watched him on TV and you've never heard him say anything political......hmmm, are you deaf?

i love charlie brooker

Is the op of this thread male?

If he is this is too tragic for words.

Cat Good pick of article!

Crapola I think OP said he has never watched Charlie Brooker on TV so is completely unaware of the entire topical political comedy series he David Mitchell Lauren Laverene etc did on Thursdays (forgotten title). But also is apparently only skim-reading his Guardian column and ignoring any feminist rants from Charlie too. Just goes to show, you see what you want to see.

Carmina Yep he is, he's been all over MN ranting at teachers, lovely quiches who he thinks should disappear up one collective arse (v confusing thread that was), all manner of vitriol and ignorant hysteria. Think he's a little bit bored. And a lot unintelligent. To put it kindly.

What a loser - what man comes onto a parenting site that's 99% female just to slag women off?

He's on another thread slagging off a picture of a bikini. Just another troll.

Sorry - picture of a girl in a bikini.

yep I can vouch for the fact this guy is a troll. All over the anti-teacher threads banging on about 'lazy public sector workers' in deeply smug tones and spouting Daily Mail 'wisdom'. Claims to be in his late 30s I think

I suspect he is the type who comes onto all-female forums looking for 'feminist lefties' to bait. Not worth the bother.

Maybe he's lonely :(

must be crosshair, but there are better ways to get attention- and he seems to despise everyone on here (see his very unpleasant list of MN 'types' early in the thread). So really I think he must just be trying to stir up trouble.

If he's lonely there's plenty of male dominated forums he could go on - loads of political forums - there's something really weird about a man who chooses to come onto MN just to annoy women.
He's probably too scared to take on other men - that's why he's here.

Well all of my female friends are far funnier and wittier than the OP ergo, woman are funnier than men

Are you for real OP?!

Do you think he gets off on this?

seedy little man

He's probably 5ft 4 - ugly with no willy - this is the only way he can get women to talk to him.

yes v likely Carmina- and since he doesn't actually like the idea of women that much, he has to wind them up deliberately...his posts ooze insecurity imho.

I think he sounds like a catch.

Oi - I saw him first....

There are plenty of male dominated political forums I could go on Carminaburana. But they are boring as fuck. I go on a music one and an economics one. And here. I quite like it on here.
allegrageller - never said public sector workers were lazy. I said they should accept pension cuts. I dont read Daily Mail. In only read the Times and Guardian (for the sport section only - rest of it is like a student rag).

I like that you like it here.

well to be fair mdowdall, you do know how to take flack with aplomb...

I was sure you were tarring us public servants as lazy whiners on the teaching thread

So he's here because MN is so funny and entertaining.
