Listen up Yanks! I'm on tour across the States in October, November and December. Come and watch me live: www.jimmycarr.com/usa/

[@Imperial-Socialist]

Saw you in Kingston, Ontario a few months ago

[@josephcallahan1664]

Sold out, damn! Keep challenging us Yank, Mr. Carr.

[@King_Stranger]

9/11 jokes aren't as offensive as calling americans "yanks" nobody calls you Invaders, marauders, brigands, invading just to invade. yank is derogatory.

It is quite comedy how he is talking slower and leaving longer pauses while he waits for them to "get it" 😂

[@RM-ti8nf]

😂😂😂

[@grazstarr]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@gazzie12000]

Yes - thank you! If you change video speed to x1.25 it's the normal Jimmy - I wondered why he sounded a bit slow and lethargic compared to usual !! Did Netflix slow the video down for yanks to understand?

[@PatrickStarr]

Dont you just love Jimmy's face when he is suppressing his own giggles? Keep em coming

Dark humor is like a food: not everyone can get it

[@HimanXK]

It seems like in Jimmy's case, dark humor is like food: Some people think cooking means toasting an eggo waffle.

[@agasfer520]

Dark humour is like children with cancer: never gets old

I honestly think making jokes of traumatic events is a coping mechanism. Yes, the events have been quite horrific, but sometimes people need humor in order to cope and process it.

[@coolyoutubename16]

Yes comedians are all manically depressed

[@australien6611]

Yes all jokes are better when you micro analyze and explain it to ppl in the KZbin comments section 🙄

[@SamuelBlack84]

If we didn't find a way to laugh at this cruel and insane world, we'd all go crazy

[@Cookie_Ninja14]

@@SamuelBlack84 agreed

[@Erickhetfield]

This should be obvious.

[@4legdfishman]

I'm a New Yorker, but I moved to another state well before 9/11. I went back to visit family a couple of months post 9/11. My suv was full of relatives, and we were on our way to meet with others for a night out. We passed by a home with a huge DIY memorial to 9/11 it even included large models of the twin towers. The first words out of my mouth? HEY! WHERE ARE THE AIRPLANES!? That did not go over well. But I still continued with... NOT REALISTIC AT ALL! True story.

[@rawx485]

Sounds like something I would say honestly.

This was still VERY tame about what you could've joked about.

[@sixaout1982]

You can laugh about anything, but not with just anybody is exactly what Pierre Desproges was saying 40 years ago

[@346cta]

Salut ma hargne!!

[@thehellyousay]

So, a timeless truth. Tell me, how many people do you reckon knew Pierre Desproges even existed, let alone said that, if he even did say it? I didn't know he even existed, let alone said anything worth repeating, and I'm 58, reasonably well educated, generally open-minded, and I pay attention. Seems a weak criticism from you, yeah?

[@Dreyno]

@@thehellyousayIt’s not a criticism, it’s an observation.
