Limmy's at his best when he's his own audience.

[@BigDaddyWes]

That's not comedy.... . . . . . . Or is it? (Vsauce music plays.)

[@GuyDude-hk8uy]

I'm here, at the Barras, asking the question on everybody's mind: how long, will I last, before I get the shit, kicked out of me, live, on camera? *begins walking towards the camera* The barras as a concept originated a-*SMASH* "YA POSH CUNT, GIES YE CAMERA ANN'AALL!"

Psychopaths often have trouble replicating normal human emotions.

i love how this video answers the question without explicitly putting into words what the answer is

[@giascle]

the answer is funny faces are comedy everything else is not comedy

[@00ValiantFay]

This Limmy Renaissance is all I ever wanted.

[@ayrshiresoundman]

You can't have a renaissance if you've never been away. Benny Harvey, on the other hand......

[@theylivewesleep.5139]

The thing about funny face guy is that he can show up at any time in really inappropriate situations like a comedy sketch.

[@joewellfair8238]

Ja want a mushroom?

[@jacobitedynamite]

Limmy's funny faces would make a statue smirk

[@ferguscasey5301]

you make my work day so much better Limmy

[@tombombadil4908]

A man on a camera, in an empty amphitheater, talking with himself about "What is comedy?" That's comedy.

[@gawni1612]

Dude I'm not even from the UK but that into music is so nostalgic!!!!!! Welcome Back Sweet Prince!

[@АртёмДубравин-ы6у]

I'm pretty sure that Limmy is the most brilliant person around.

[@Lucas43434]

Down here next to the... just spotted this here. I'm just down next to the suspension bridge here in Glasgow, and... There's these steps here. These kinda seats. Kinda looks like a wee bit like a theatre. That's cause it... that's what it used to be. This used to be a band stand. Here. I come by here thinking it would be nice to do a wee show here. Y'know, people could do wee shows here, like wee stand up shows and... but nobody does. Nobody does anything with it. It kinda looks a bit like a lecture theatre, as well. Good to, maybe, do one of the... do a wee talk. A wee comedy talk. Hi guys, my name's Limmy. Uh, Brian Limmond AKA Limmy and I'm here today to give a talk about comedy. I'm a comedian. And I just want to ask the question "What is comedy?" That's the name of my talk. "What is comedy?" That's a good question. "What is comedy?" Uhhh, is this? Is this comedy? Is this comedy, what I'm doing right now? Is this comedy? Someone there... I can see he's not so sure but that's okay. What is comedy? Is this comedy? What about this, is this comedy? What about if I do this? Funny faces, is that comedy? He... Yep, he approves of that. Okay. But what if I was to tell you that just there, just behind where you're sitting there's a church. A chapel, a cathedral. And they have funerals there. I've seen- I've went past in a motor and I've looked and um, there's been people outside, uh, grieving. And tears, uh, as they stand next to a hearse. Is that funny? Is that comedy? Nah, that is nay comedy. Okay, we can agree that that is nay comedy but what if you were to drive past and you were to see one of these funerals outside and they were grieving outside and um you saw one of the grievers, one of them, greeting their eyes out crying. And this was their face. I'm not putting on a funny face, this was their actual face. "I don't know how I'm gonna cope." Is that funny? Is that funny? That's comedy. That's comedy, isn't it, sir? Okay, well thanks for listening to my talk, everybody. I'm just gonna leave you with a joke. Everybody agrees that a joke's comedy. Um. You, sir. Knock knock. Who's there? Doctor Who. Doctor Who who? Doctor who who who who who who're you callin' a whore? Oh oh, he's away. All right. Right, so laughing at a funeral's all right but that... whore, that's...? Unbelievable. Unbelievable.

[@Karim-sh8pu]

Thats comedy

[@Rydonittelo]

I've loved Limmy since he had is own website back in the early 2000s and he can still make me laugh when I'm not expecting it...... " Who? Who? Who you cawin a whore!?" 😁

[@bananachild1936]

What is comedy? Life is comedy, and vice versa. So there you go. I just killed two birds with one stone.

[@figas126]

I didn't understand the punchline on the last joke, what did he say?

[@Your_National_Anthem]

It only really works if you're from here but basically when he says "Who are you calling a hoor?", Whore and contracted "who are" are pronounced the same with our accent which makes it funny. Pretty sure it was purposefully meant to be a pretty crappy joke though. Either that or I missed something entirely, lol

[@figas126]

@@Your_National_Anthem that makes sense to me, usually not understanding half of what he says it's what's funny to me, but I felt like I was missing out on something this time, thank you very much!
