I'm a comedienne and I've written an entire routine about this forum

[joanjett]

I love this forum so much , I wrote an entire routine about it . Would you like to see / hear it ?

meh also.

I HATE the word "comedienne". It makes me itch.

I didn't find it that funny, sorry. I smiled once or twice at the personal bits but that was it.

I understand why the stereotype was needed in the context of the routine, but still for me the whole thing lacked bite. [hsmile]

Mme Lindor - she wasn't mocking a stereotype, or rather she was, but she wasn't mocking the stereotype for being a stereotype, she was mocking "smug mums on MN"

HeadlessLamaaaaa - I don't know what you mean

Funny, but it could be longer, much, much longer.

That Rasta Mouse one was real though.

There were people appalled that their children might start talking like black people. I saw it.

I think it started with someone being concerned it was sterotyping black people or someone being outraged because it was really about drugs not cheese (someone has some isshoos they need to look at). It soon turned into a mad thread about babies saying their first words in patois or something.

Hully - I do believe you're turning into a >

?? frothing berserker ??

I thought it was hilarious. Have posted a link on FB for my friends. For the record I don't drink organic milk, wear Cath Kidston, have a blond bob, have a nanny, worship Nigel Slater or lisp with Spanish words.

I might drink Pinot Grigio and think bankers should be paid bigger bonuses ...is it after 11am? yes... ok time for

Made me giggle!

everything you say, Mary Bourke. i have thought 1000 times. and i'm still here haha

Midly amusing I suppose.

What is funny are the people who have taken offence.

Jesus, get OVER yourselves!

I smiled. I didn't laugh

It's pretty much lifted entirely from the media stereotype and is rather lazy imo.

i thought it was funny, because im normal.
The posters who actually are mentioned in this clip will find it offensive because thats the point!

I found it very funny.

The ranty bit at the end had me in stitches.

Am. I. Being. Unreasonable. LMAO

Oh mosschops, that's a silly thing to say. We'd all be laughing at John Bishop if we wanted to be normal, and where would that get us?

I can't be arsed to watch/read it unless you can guarantee I am on it

Brilliant - did you have Farrow and Ball in your rant?

I thought it was fairly boring and bore little resemblance to the funnier AIBU threads I have read and AIBU as I know it. If it was just full of smug mummies moaning most of us would have got bored long ago, it's the variety that makes it interesting (and funny).

I actually laughed out loud OP. But maybe that's cos i don't have a nanny, don't wear cathy wotsit (whoever the hell that is) don't drive a 4x4, don't drink organic milk, don't have a cleaner (I wish!), couldn't care less how my kids talk as long as they talk (they are SLD) and don't know who in hell Nigel Slater is...
You didn't mention the copious amounts of acronyms though...Aha, there's something new for you next time.

And by the way (Or BTW) I love your accent.

I loved it, way to go girl : )

I loved it - more please

Really lazy. I don't believe you've been on her at all. You've just read what other people have had to say. I couldn't laugh because I didn't recognise the person you were talking about

Thanks for that

been on here

Bit lame. But I expected it to be - t'was the 'comedienne thing.
