If you're a politician your words have added weight, and influence.
And therefore it behooves you to be responsible, and not a silly arse.
Talking about rivers of blood, and thinking you wouldn't be misunderstood.
Is the act of a silly arse.
The ASDA of satire.
I hate purity, I hate goodness!I don't want any virtue to exist anywhere. I want everyone to be corrupt to the bones.
But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.

People can be hijacked, though. I'm not sure Friedrich Nietche would have been overly fond of Hitler quoting him so often.

Wasn't the whole "rivers of blood" reference some highbrow classical allusion which only 0.00001% of the population were ever going to not misunderstand ?
I bet Aristotle (or whoever it was) is pretty fucked off at having his catchphrase well and truly shat on.

No, but Nietche wasn't a politician, and never aspired to be. Hitler liked Charlie Chaplin's, The Great Dictator, he may have been an evil bastard. But he was an evil bastard with eclectic tastes.
Enoch was a highly conservative politician with a strong following in the right.
Mind you the silly bugger, gave the impetus for the race relations act.
Kinda like marching against gayness, and ending up getting bummed.
It was Pliny I think? The rivers of the Tiber will foam with blood.
And Boris (may he lose horribly) Johnson was probably using an old Latin form of respectful greeting, when he uses the word Pickaninny. Especially when used in conjunction with cannibal, or water melon smile.

Isn’t it amazing how fast and far a thread can go off topic without the original subject ever being debated?
So this is a great example of what the problem is and it's not the numbers.
Reminder: - this is a forum for people with an interest in Comedy. (Should just be Sitcoms, but that another subject and didn’t wont to contradict myself).

And now for something completely different. A discussion about sitcoms, on BSG.

I'm sure there'll be a lot of blokes on here willing to give you a right good culling Charley. Oh yes, a proper good culling and no mistake. A good, hard, thorough culling.
Up the arse.
Oh damn I spoilt the innuendo now.

Sooty has earned an indemnity from culling with this post I think. And fuck Boris (but not in any way that can cause enjoyment).

Am I funnier when I talk crap on forums, then when writing my woeful skits.
I know this is going off topic.

I can't say I've read any of your 'skits' - not recently enough to remember them - but if you are, then that doesn't bode well for a writing career.
