He read his crowd pretty well for an American! Brits just have different humor, but I think he did pretty well

no idea why they didn't tell him it's usually called guy Fawkes night, or bonfire night lol

How did I like in the UK for 3 years and never heard about it??? Is it just a London thing?

It's funny how often he says "guy" or "guys" when talking about Guy Fawkes, when the word literally came from a reference to his name.

[@AylaMarianna]

Wow, I had no idea! Just looked this up. Thanks for this interesting etymological tidbit. 😻

[@herpyderpy4366]

There's something amusing about the casual use of the word ‘guy’ whilst talking about the event that ended up giving us its modern usage. Also hope to see you in Scotland some day. I can promise at least one ticket sold, so rest easy on that front.

[@KatefromEngland]

I saw one of these live - Gianmarco is exceptional! So sharp and funny!

Guy Fawkes Day sounds crazy

[@sophiebaker3907]

We mostly call it Bonfire Night these days and yeah it's insane. The bigger displays run a procession through the town and the shops have to board up their windows and such because people keep throwing firecrackers and sometimes larger fireworks. Loads of fun though, but you have to be careful since it's several hundred Brits, absolutely wasted, throwing small explosives and fire. And yes people bring their small children - I went every year as a kid and loved it! Still love it!

I’m sorry but that explanation of Bonfire Night 😅 “A couple hundred years ago, this masked dude tried to blow up Parliament”

[@yeslinsequeira4612]

You're genuinely amazing!

[@rachelcookie321]

I’m British but I’ve honestly never seen an effigy or a bonfire, I’ve only ever celebrated Guy Fawkes night with fireworks. The celebrations for fireworks night were never really that big when I was a kid in Britain, we just went to a field, watched fireworks for 10 minutes then went home. In New Zealand fireworks night is much bigger, there is like a whole fair with rides and carnival games and musicians.

[@NotSpillingTheTea]

Where did you live in the UK? I’ve always had a good choice of several different Bonfire celebrations to go to. Not all have fairground rides, but they do all have big bonfires, fireworks, food stalls, and game stalls.

WTH with the terrible Guy Fawkes history? “A couple hundred years.” Umm November 5, 1605! And he didn’t wear a mask. 🤦🏻‍♀️ But very funny from Gianmarco as always! The tube ad joke, for real. 😆

[@antine1279]

Remember, remember the 5th of November

[@ButMadNNW626]

Not so fun fact: the film _V for Vendetta_ (which heavily references Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot) was supposed to be released in cinemas on 5 November 2005, the 400th anniversary of Fawkes’s arrest. However, a real-life event occurred in London that some felt was too uncomfortably similar to something that happens near the end of the film (I’m trying to avoid spoilers here), so the release was delayed to 17 March 2006. And I’ve just realized while typing this that that date was exactly 18 years ago and I feel old. 😅

[@momojojokoko]

"The apple doesn't fall far from the colonizer" is a chilling expression when you remember that apple trees are one of the things Europeans brought to the New World as they sough to reshape it in their image. To the Natives, honey bees and apples meant impending doom.

[@spinshade]

Was she about to explain geography?!

[@anywallsocket]

[@Malletman2]

Man, Guy Fawkes Day being celebrated in schools in the UK is so weird to think about. When I was in college in '08 (coincidentally, UK - University of Kentucky!) two guys apparently decided to import the tradition. Except it was an Obama effigy. And they hanged it from a tree. So uhhhhhhhh I guess that's one way to put an American spin on it - add some Klan overtones.

[@rachelcookie321]

I will say as a British person, I have never burnt an effigy at school. I have never burnt an effigy in general.

[@helennelson959]

UK girl here, learned about it at primary school for one lesson but that was it. We certainly don't burn anything in school unless it's science experiments with a Bunsen burner.

[@aj_makesmovies]

Wait hold on. In the second clip the girl nudged the guy about the circumcision joke. She almost definitely knew he was uncircumcised. But then later they say that it's the first date. So what in the fuck kind of dates do they have in the UK where they talk about their uncircumcised penises on the first date? If it's a normal thing there please let me know because that would be hilarious.

[@TheKillahKyla]

Maybe they're fans of Gianmarco and made a bet on how quickly he'd mention circumcision in his set 😅

[@martafiord]

Is it a custom in the UK though? As a Greek woman that lives in Spain and very chatty with my girl-friends when younger, I have never seen or heard about a circumcised one here, except one and he was from the USA.
