The missus doesn’t like Alan Partridge.

“He’s a dick”, she says.

“I agree, but you’re missing the point”, I reply.

Things persist in this state of tension.

To be fair, there are people who find Mrs Brown’s Boys hilarious too. Each to their own.

You’re contributing on a sub-forum named after an invention of that show.

You’re lucky we didn’t call this Youth Hosteling with Chris Eubank or Inner City Sumo.

The point is that Alan Partridge IS a dick…but you already know that. This is a pointless exercise because whoever the comedian some will find them funny and others won’t. No matter what we say for or against he’ll still be funny to me and not to you.

Next.

Funny how a thread like this kind of confirms what you already knew but weren’t necessarily consciously thinking about other posters.

I consciously think everything.

I hate surprises.

Should start a vote on this one, I think it will be more one sided.

“I’ve got a broad grin and tell my “jokes” very loudly, I must be funny”

Now there’s a bloke that people find funny because everyone else says he is…bit like a Russell Brand and the way the media think he’s really funny. Funny, my arse.

No, I don’t like Mrs Browns Boys or Michael MacRetread etc either.

That’s Les Denis, not Barry.
