Greg is already hilarious but what sets him over the edge for me is the fact that he always wears a shirt that is just one size too small and it always amuses me.

[@rhiannonchaffer2588]

He ALWAYS starts his sets by apologising for something that he's wearing. You'd think he'd have sorted it out by now! 😂

Its probably hard if not impossible for him to find anything that fits him given that he shops at Urban Outfitters.

Greg Davies is one of the best storyteller in stand up comedy. He keeps me interested 100%. When he talks that's all I'm ever focused on.

[@waheedahosein9496]

@@Runescapewithred I bet you think people are poor by choice too. If it's just bad people making bad decisions why doesn't it happen much in other developed countries? It is this attitude that is the real problem. You are so willing to throw people away so you don't have to help them.

[@Runescapewithred]

@@7thDayAdventures I'm willing to throw them away because it's a lifestyle choice. I never brought up money at all. Poor? I worked 80 hours a week for 4 months straight last year. You have a choice to make the money or not. It's not expensive to go running and do body weight workouts. A farmers market is also cheap as hell. Don't try and act like eating 4 McDoubles a day isn't a choice.
