British Comedian Investigated By Police After Audience Member Offended By

What’s worse: someone actually called the police about a joke or that the police actually investigated this and contacted him?

Context?? What was the joke?

by Anonymousreply 1June 22, 2022 8:39 PM

Can someone please post the joke. He only says it involved the words "giant donkey dick".

by Anonymousreply 2June 22, 2022 8:40 PM

This would’ve been in the prequel to 1984, as things were leading up to that point.

Was it a tranny joke?

by Anonymousreply 4June 22, 2022 8:40 PM

R1, the joke is irrelevant.

And the EU thinks America is too “woke”?

Brits get called by the police for tweets, retweets, misgendering, etc. It’s all illegal. It’s a politically correct, anti-free speech shithole. One guy got a call over a retweet by the police saying that they wanted to “make sure he was thinking right.”

Tell us the joke!!

The joke was about online dating. He met this girl, talked for a while, was really falling for her, then went on a date. When they got back to his place and he removed her skirt, a giant donkey dick fell out. He asked the audience what they think happened next, if he still shagged her. He says you bet your arse I did, it’s not everyday you come across a giant donkey dick.

The woke British constabulary policies have been slipping the country bit by bit into a bizarre police state.

Of course it was about the trannys.

R9. I laughed.

This comedian is famous for his twee musings on BBC 'light entertainment' shows (shows like Bake Off etc).

So probably the audience member was probably not a tranny, but an elderly person expecting whimsy, not jokes from a bisexual man about fucking.

Honestly I doubt that r13. I don't think the elderly instinctively think of calling cops for a joke that bothers them. Trans activists on the other hand ...

Thanks, R9.

[quote]"The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities -- but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith."

No, not about the Ts.

Separate incident r16, separate guy. The joke by the comedian is about the T I'm sure.

Or are you saying something else?

I was addressing r10 and r11.

Someone should have slapped him.

by Anonymousreply 19June 22, 2022 10:26 PM

Actually, someone should have slapped that audience member. Oh are you offended? Well, here's a bitch slapping for you! There, now you understand what an aggression actually is.

I wish George Carlin was still alive.

George Carlin had too much common sense. Were he still alive he would have been cancelled and banned years ago.

Riiiiight.

People are being put on trial for their tweets in the UK. They have to pay money bd make a public apology for hurting someone’s feelings.

by Anonymousreply 24June 22, 2022 10:53 PM

Carlin is the one who all the little crybaby SJWs keep quoting about not punching down.

Ive been a fan of Joe Lycett. The jokes funny. And he doesn't only for whimsy. He's pretty explicit.

by Anonymousreply 26June 22, 2022 10:54 PM

The joke had something to do with joe showing a naked baby picture of himself

by Anonymousreply 27June 22, 2022 10:57 PM

Joel Lycett is partly famous for writing letters to councils, politicians, parking officials and so on complaining about treatment over a various issues. His letters are very funny and he usually gets the desired outcome. He now has a consumers rights type show on the TV as well as presenting the Sewing Bee so he will have a very diverse group of followers. When somebody makes a complaint the police have to investigate. They investigated - probably a five minute job if that - and closed the case. It was somebody wasting their time but the press are making a massive fuss over nothing just like the audience member.

R28, here. Joe not Joel. Typed it out of habit.

He’s probably a faggot.

I love Joe Lycett. Shit like this just fuels him, egging him on.

Matt, He's openly bi. It's part of his act.

by Anonymousreply 34June 22, 2022 11:57 PM

FFS - there is no right, god-given or otherwise, not to be offended.

Abestos eyeballs for everyone.

by Anonymousreply 35June 23, 2022 12:21 PM

If he's gay or bi, then the joke that got him in trouble makes no sense.
