Thats Really the extent of his act I guess he’s not really a sophisticated humour guy
I am more concerned about the likes of what Chubby Brown is doing (even though he's not on Netflix) rather than a bad taste Jimmy Carr joke.
Is Chubby Brown really still doing jokes about n*ggers with big lips and Pakistanis smelling?
Fortunately a pub I was going to use for a party has stopped publicising itself with the fact he likes it and visits it a lot, else I'd have to engage in my own cancel culture!I am more concerned about the likes of what Chubby Brown is doing (even though he's not on Netflix) rather than a bad taste Jimmy Carr joke.

Used to have photos of him on their walls and everything.Gerard Ratner in charge of their marketing?

Sure after reading that article, the Afro-Caribbean element of the guests'd be delighted!Book the party, might get a free stand up routine…bonus
Do they play auld lang syne or something?I'd be more concerned about CB's audience than him. At least he has an excuse of it paying his wages, they're choosing to pay to hear his bollocks.
Jimmy Carr did one and again polarised opinion but I seem to remember a good few squaddies coming out in support saying that, that was the dark humour they used.I still maintain that ‘jokes’ about British people being blown up in terrorist attacks, soldiers being gunned down etc would be met with outrage on here.
I don't usually laugh at bad taste jokes, but I do find that funny.Jimmy Carr did one and again polarised opinion but I seem to remember a good few squaddies coming out in support saying that, that was the dark humour they used.
Just googled the exact joke:
“Say what you like about those servicemen amputees from Iraq and Afghanistan, but we're going to have a fucking good Paralympic team in 2012."
It’s because it is funny though isn’t it. It’s funny because it’s ridiculous and pushing the boundary. Clearly we are not going to have a great Paralympic team because of the amputees.I don't usually laugh at bad taste jokes, but I do find that funny.
I don't think people can tell the difference, it's very w eird.
It was a comedy show, not a Tommy Robinson rally. It was explained beforehand and after and was one of hundreds of jokes.
People still just want to be seen as "good people". Shouting for him to be investigated by Police.
Or alternatively maybe some genuinely just have a problem with it?
Where have you taken that quote from?Yeah maybe some romany gypsys actually do.
However, the majority of people piling on are on it for the bandwagon and don't seem to realise it was a comedy show and just want to be more offended than everybody else.
"I feel sick to my stomach and close to tears" is one example. Course you are. It will be something else next week that sickens and upsets people.
Where have you taken that quote from?
So where’s it from?Somebody trying to be more offended than everybody else.

So you’ve made it up.It was an example of somebody trying to be more offended than everybody else, like I have said.
So you’ve made it up.
What a fucking farce.
For tax evasion!I don't think people can tell the difference, it's very w eird.

Virtue signalling.No, I haven't made anything up.
Didn't mean to disappoint you that somebody has taken their virtue signalling game to a higher level than yours.

Virtue signalling.
You’re a joke.
The idea that you can only be offended by something if you are *that* person is absolutely nonsense by the way. If my wife/daughter were to suffer racial abuse, can I not be offended by it because I am white?
Personally, I am of the mindset that comedy should be left to comedy. It becomes a dangerous game if we start drawing lines. I didn't find his quip remotely funny, and I think he's a twat. People can judge him, and those that find it funny, as they see fit.
People will be 'fake outraged' as you have put it. But you are also outraged at their outrage like it somehow is about you. There's plenty of that to go about.
Says the man who makes up quotes to try and win an argument?Ironic really as you don't seem to be able to differentiate between jokes and real life.

Screen grab one for meJimmy Carr is still trending, there are plenty to pick from. That was just one example.
The act from people acting holier than thou is pretty funny though.
Took two seconds
The woman in question claims to be of Roma origin though, so I'm not sure what Nick's point is. Did you tell her you think she's overdoing it, Nick?
I stand corrected. Apologies @Nick
