  • “The Brits started it” is basically the history version of “Once upon a time”
  • @user-op8fg3ny3j
    First mistake was filling in the gap between the 2 lads taking a leak.
  • @user-zp9cq2vm8o
    Historically speaking, the brits really started it🤣🥲
  • @JimmyIsTheBest1
    As a Brit, I don't remember starting it, but I apologise nonetheless

    Had to comment. Comedians are a blessed bunch - and you are chief among them. Comedians are the only ones allowed to speak with nuance by some great irony. Journalism is so rabidly fundamentalist one side or the other that it truly is propaganda no matter who you read. Although authors should be clear about their persuasions and their arguments to have a good book, journalism is supposed to investigate and present the nuances - somehow it has devolved into shouting “facts”. I appreciate the way you handled this topic. Someone else said “clever, daring, and compassionate” and I wholeheartedly agree. Keep up the nuance guys! Well, well, well done!
  • @wotan10950
    My first thought was, “Don’t go there!” But you handled a delicate subject very well.

    "Peace in Northern Ireland was only achieved by the laying down of Arms." Whoa. Kept that quiet Arms. A powerful man!
  • The biggest injustice in this sketch is they didn't let him take a piss in peace 😂
  • @IKEACherryChair
    he's gonna walk out of there and realize he didn't even piss
  • @gabsie7224
    Thanks for the signed print lads. Sorry I did not have any local cash on me last night 😊 The show was hilarious and had my brother laugh out loud. There is no better sound that the laugh of someone you love.
  • @naomigreen9749
    My headcanon is that they only subjected him to that out of revenge because he chose the urinal between them when there were others available without neighbours.
  • @87worms
    The title seemed risky but I was pleasantly surprised by the end of it! Funny but full of compassion
  • @TragoudistrosMPH
    So well done. It's great when people you already like can tackle a touchy topic and make you smile.
  • @sarah.bea.
    Oh wow! Hats off to you for picking that topic, getting your point across, and even making it funny in under 2 minutes!
  • this is a beautiful example of how comedy can be made about any topic aslong as you approach it right
  • @TheDaragh
    Thank you for being so brave to post about this very difficult issue.
  • @ninab9969
    Thank you for pointing out the nuance and the complexities of this situation. I wish more people did. Every time I see someone speak up about this, they make their points extremely well and I wholeheartedly agree with them, but then they are shot down by those trying to force them to pick a side that isn't peace and will inevitably lead to the loss of more lives just like in this skit (but usually with a lot more name-calling, threats, severe online bullying, non-stop hounding and people trying to 'cancel' them until they either go completely or partially quiet). Especially if you're a public figure of any kind, you're basically forced to talk about it and expected to take some sort of extreme stance even though the logical, compassionate answer is right there. Anyway, thousands will probably tell you that doing this skit was wrong. I'm here to tell you it was 100% right! I was subscribed already but I'm even more of a fan now. Kudos!
