Daniel | Episode 2: When You Apply For Benefits | Comedy Blaps

[@thedoctorand]

"We won't tell your flatmates, but we will leave little clues in the mail."

[@DavidWoods255]

That no renting to people on benefits has gotta be horseshit right? I mean I'm Aussie and dont know but thats some insane discrimination. You pay ya rent, babing badaboom who cares yes?

[@CiacNoris3]

@@DavidWoods255 it's not. It's illegal but landlords still do it. I think the reason is they're afraid that if the renter loses their benefits they won't have the money to pay rent anymore. And the process of kicking them out if they refuse to leave the house is long and costly.

[@kingayy9267]

@CiacNoris3 The same concern is valid for people losing their job(s), although the landlord would probably think they'd be more likely to have savings than a person who's on benefits.

[@HopOPwndTheHippo]

Well if that's it then he's in the clear

[@thetruth1733]

Such a shame there is not more of this guy online

[@sa99miy]

I love this guy.

[@MedalionDS9]

Dude is a hero... I have always been very shy/anti-social/introverted but wanted to be a comedian when I was very very young before... he's living the dream!

[@brassmonkey4815]

believe in yourself, okay LOL

[@kyyappeeh]

How is this not a show yet?

[@OffkeyCreatives]

Best comedy blaps by a long way. Deserves his own series!

[@kingayy9267]

What is blaps?

[@Johnphilips1234]

Haha the benefits officer "that's not actually my problem at all is it?" Bet they wish they could say that sort of thing in real life.

[@toffeecrisp2146]

You kidding? They do. I have seen them laying on their desks in the past, and checking out their social media profiles during "interviews" the system is totally screwed.

[@BillHicks420]

"It's alright..." LOL

[@1q3er5]

i like how he answers the door

[@carlosjrp815]

I love this guy!

[@bruceinmyheart]

"Hans, du må hugse geværet!" Lolz :-D

[@nuclearrunt3023]

What did he say?

[@pricerowland]

I have a hard time believing I'm not just inside Daniel's mind right now.

[@jananni123456789]

Does anyone else wonder if his old flatmates watch this/saw him on tv? That would be so funny lol

[@meirwise1107]

Give him a series already.

[@kiraaalucyyy3271]

[@armindoroudi9025]

[@maxbusiness69]

[@harryponders]

[@morgengabe1]

[@TomasStavik]

[@Julemacgrumble]

You feel awkward just by watching

[@jananni123456789]

Cheese, crisps and cola - doesn't this guy put on weight?!

[@r.davidsen]

Well, it's all he could afford for the whole week, so... there's that.

[@MedalionDS9]

He's Norwegian... all of them are super skinny all the time

[@SuzLa1]

Ha ha

[@Keanuism]

What is his accent

[@SWflashproductions]

Norwegian

[@mfwplayinggames]

***** it's beyond just norwegian at this point

[@youdontknow4264]

It is bergensk

[@mattpuxty6094]

To the people who said they were gutted because they are no equivalent English words, for those German ones: Schadenfreude = 'Epicaricacy' Fremdschämen = 'Cringeworthy', perhaps? Anyway, even if they aren't appropriate, I think it more poetic to describe feelings with figurative phrases/language. As opposed to having a word for everything.

[@CrimsonsDeath12]

+Matt Puxty What do you mean? This guy is from Bergen, Norway and he speaks norwegian

[@Julemacgrumble]

I think it sucks that there are no words for fremdschämen or Schadenfreude in English

[@nastyevilbunny]

I agree. For a long time i knew i felt fremdschämen but i couldn't put a word to it, so it was difficult to explain. Most people know what Schadenfreude means now, but if you try to use fremdschämen in a conversation you have to explain what it means.

[@nastyevilbunny]

Contact embarasment, which the German's call Fremdschämen and the Finnish call Myötähäpeä. I get that a lot.
