Jimmy Carr bad taste I took it as a dig at the goverment not squaddies, its their fault they are all coming back with 1/2 price trainer vouchers. Total blow up by the media again, things always look worse in print.
i have heard him crack far worse jokes than this like. the one about skinhead (meaning cancer sufferers) for example was horrific am going to see him on friday
Aye i saw this yesterday in the Sun, its just standard really for the sort of comedian he is and he has definitely said a lot harsher stuff that that. There isnt anything or anyone he wont rinse on stage, and anyone who takes what he says as more than just a joke to make people laugh has completely missed the point. If you are easily offended you dont go and see him, its simple really. I think hes a fucking crease and have seen him a few times, hoping to get down on thursday to see him at the city hall.
Perhaps the government should issue us with a list of acceptable comedy topics, or even just a series of jokes our comedians should read to the crowd. What a load of crap - more sickening 'rah rah' support of the troops to the point where they are raised to god like standards.
