I have had the misfortune of seeing some bits from Geoff Norcott and Chris McGlade and they are painfully unfunny

For the longest time, i asumed Geoff Norcott was a bit the Mash report came up with, like Barry Shitpeas or Philomena Cunk.

The best use of out is as a modifier for itself.

“Are we going out tonight? Like, out out?”
I always assumed that somehow originally came from something to do with word duplication for literal emphasis seen in Nguni languages, like actually now, actually out, actually good. As opposed to 'just'. "Are we going out tonight? Like, out out?" "Just out, man."
It wouldn't be the strangest linguistic reverse colonization in English.

Imagine the most absurd way you can realistically think of to own your posting enemies on the internet. It is more absurd than that. The sheer force of retaliation combined with the utter improbability of having the material components to hand. Just unfathomable, you could never expect it.

Some UK cop was being a wanker online at a lefty twitter peep and this several-days-old Twitter account responded with a picture of... I still can't bring myself to say it plainly. But after the ouuuuuuhhhhh they said I just came on your mum and the attached picture was a funeral booklet for the cop's mum covered in fresh semen

To the internet, it is always the tweet. I have seldom heard them mention it under any other name. In their eyes it eclipses and predominates the whole of its media. It was not that they felt any emotion akin to love for Guy Who Replies To Dipshits. All emotions, and that one particularly, were abhorrent to their cold, precise but admirably balanced mind. They were, I take it, the most perfect reasoning and observing machine that the world has seen.... And yet there was but one tweet to them, and that tweet was by the late Guy Who Replies To Dipshits, of dubious and questionable memory.

It really was incredible, the sheer, unparalleled violence of it. Like yeah the cop was being a sneering wee poo poo or whatever but that tweeter just went like loving... like that bit in equilibrium where his polygraph flatlines and then he murders hundreds of bad guys. Just cannot imagine the sheer stone cold desire to obliterate the psyche of your posting enemies that must have happened there. Unfathomable, you are at once horrified and yet also struck with the feeling that you will never quite achieve the same level of power and perfection of purpose that this person has done. Their entire life to this point was building to this perfect moment of posting violence, it strikes the mind with a force beyond processing, and all who witnessed it are moved by it in some way.

Even still when I think of it I am moved to do this weird kind of scream laugh, I have never fully dealt with the experience and I don't think i ever will.

Dankula is the dumbass alt right edgelord who taught his girlfriend's dog to nazi salute when he talked about gassing Jews. Ofc famous antisemitism disliker JK Rowling came in to bat for him because he was 'only joking', not like those nasty lefties who racistly do things like pronounce people's surnames correctly.

No Geoff Norcott is what happens when somebody at the beeb realises they've accidentally let a show on the air that isn't even a little bit right wing. They bring that prick on to go "Ah, starving kids, not that bad, quite funny really".

Told lots of terrible rape jokes then gotten mad when people didn't like them, including the woman whose rape he worked into his act as a gag.

It's really something. The cop made a dunkable post, no doubt, but the guy goes from 0 to 90 instantly. There is zero escalation, he goes straight for a nuclear option none of us even thought possible, and does it with no hesitation or regret whatsoever. It's stunning.

I saw Reginald twice at the Fringe, I think way back in 2014 first time, then 2016 or something next time. The first time he was okay, funny in a sort of deliberately offensive way, but nothing incredibly nasty and it was a good enough show. The second time though was pretty dire - he was obviously hungover and said so, and his act was pretty much a repetition of the year or two before. He didn't seem to be able to create any new material. I think he dropped out of the Fringe around 2018, which wasn't surprising.
