What Is Fat-Thin? | Aisling Bea

[@lonelystranger7114]

Her performances are so fluid. Especially for a person who can't be arsed.

[@user-yp3oj5se1i]

so over rehearsed.

[@GuitarJosh161]

@@user-yp3oj5se1i What does over-rehearsed even mean? Doing her job?

[@user-yp3oj5se1i]

@@GuitarJosh161 It does need more elaboration, like how "so fluid" does. I don't mean simply over rehearsed on it's own. Like the phrase 'over acting' we know doesn't mean doing their acting job better. As over acting is understood to be negative, over rehearsing means thinking up exactly what you are going to say during your stand up, rehearsing it verbatim, delivering it word for word, generally fast paced, a bit louder and walking up and down the stage a lot. Those 'stand ups' do that because they don't have very interesting stories and are not good story tellers. As opposed to people like Billy Connolly for instance. Aisling never goes off on a tangent because she rehearsed her act When you are not a good joke teller like Rodney Dangerfield to be a good stand up you must have good stories and be able to tell them well. Her stories are delivered fast paced and she delivers them as if she rehearsed them well but are not very funny. Now, what does "so fluid" even mean? That comment is not saying 'that bit was funny' it was mentioning generally her performances run fluidly which is very like over rehearsed. Over rehearsed can mean better rehearsed but as i explained it's like the term 'over acting' which is what people that can't act well do to make it look like they are acting well. None of her fluid performances make up for the negativity happening and she supports the establishment with it's child abuse, war, anti 'white', anti male ideologies, monarchy families etc Even Billy Connolly's humour doesn't make up for that.

[@GuitarJosh161]

@@user-yp3oj5se1i most of your comment is fair but you lost me at the end like you got super angry half way through typing it. Not sure show her performance right here has anything to do with supporting the establishment and it’s misgivings

[@user-yp3oj5se1i]

@@GuitarJosh161 The most definitive sign of a troll is when they claim you are angry/ tell you to 'calm down' without any evidence of how clam you are. I'm shocked at some of the comments that's all. You got no indication of if i'm angry or not from what i typed. The end bit of what i typed was to explain more about myself. That gave you an indication of where i'm coming from. I just noticed another bizarre comment from 4 months ago someone said "she has a strong one liner game. thats a bit of a lost art, and im appreciating it."?????? Now, if you don't notice what's wrong about that comment, i don't believe you. dangerfield and stewart francis or steven wright etc are one liner comedians. I can't remember one liners from her, the commenter doesn't know what one liners are or it's another very fake comment from a friend of hers.

[@user-yp3oj5se1i]

What was she doing there? Sarcasm? people really don't like going from being young and healthy then growing old, getting wrinkled and sore and not able to move as much etc that happens when we get older. She's mocking herself as she must dislike the ageing effect and she's mocking most people. She acts like the subject of ageing, the process everybody would change if they could is something we should be mocked about. I wonder what you'd say if asked about why you 'loved' that?

[@IWillBeBacon]

The point she made between jokes about botox and looking older was actually very well grounded. The fact that she can make great jokes and keep everyone laughing whilst making great remarks on stuff like this really makes her one of (if not) the best comedians out there right now.

[@user-yp3oj5se1i]

You must be one of her friends. What a fake comment. The first thing she said was the doctor told her to get out of the house and she said 'but my naps won't take themselves' and she used it as a punchline. Then said 'soz' as another punchline! The 'fat thin' bit isn't something she made up and the 'can't be arsed' bit is also an existing phrase which isn't funny when used, it just means you can't be bothered/don't want to do something. I can remember hearing people say 'can't be arsed' or 'i wasn't arsed' since the 1990's. She used it as a punchline! You clearly extremely over exaggerate here "stuff like this really makes her one of (if not) the best comedians out there right now"?? She's nowhere near even being a good stand up comedienne. Exaggerating how talented she is makes people look closer at her material and they then see how over exaggerated those comments are and is one of the reasons they dislike her. The ping pong looking like perverts spanking a ghost bit was a complete miss. You said she keeps everyone laughing. She knows the audience feel embarrassed when a stand up tells their punchline and it's not funny so they give a fake laugh. Many stand ups have admitted that themselves. The audience don't want to see you not being funny and potentially running off stage so they give laughs when nothing funny has been said. The Tv camera encourages the audience to smile and laugh when it points at people. This clip had one funny bit in it. The bit where she said she doesn't like listening to sad music in case she'll be moved.

[@user-yp3oj5se1i]

@@mirjanbouma Her humour isn't funny = Women hater. How weak, typical. Working class males go through tougher harsher environments where you have to be funny to fit in and deal with bullying. Being funny can stop bullies in school assaulting you. Middle class females are protected from that harshness and we see the results with the difference in humour. She even admitted that she has friends that are not celebs and are funnier than her. It's about having regard for the audience that has to listen to you. These 'stand ups' were born into social circles that become celebs. They get college fees paid unlike most working class people and already know other celebs that help them get on tv/become famous. It shows when we see their stand up that they didn't go through what the likes of Pryor, Connolly or Dangerfield went through. They disregard the class oppression which separates all races/genders of people into higher and lower, working, middle and upper class orders. Then they are used to bring up the less oppressing things like sexism and racism so that the public don't talk about her middle class getting more money for doing less work than working class people that get the least pay for doing the hardest work. All the elements of slavery still exist, it was never abolished but they never bring it up during their stand up. That's extremely unobservant or extremely cowardly. They repeat propaganda for the propaganda movements/establishment to keep their money and fame. Sexism and racism combined are nowhere near as oppressing as social stratification/class. Why wouldn't a sane person at least dislike people/women like that?
