I think Frankie Boyle is trying a bit hard to be offensive now, which is a shame
I don't like his stand up because he just repeats the best things he thought of from Mock the Week, so if you've seen Mock the Week it's just boring.

I agree in principle
but he was always the best thing about Mock the Week and a lot of the stuff he came up with is still funny on the 6th or 7th listen. Plus there's a lot of audience interaction on his stand-up DVD, plus the stuff the BBC wouldn't let him say.

You are right though, he's a naturally very funny guy but he is trying to offend now. Shame.

I think he tries way too hard now
The best thing about Mock The Week is the possibility that Ed Byrne might be on there, being all fit and stuff.

I care about substance. Sort of.

coincidentally
I have a friend who contrives to look exactly like both Frodo and Ed Byrne

So he's just growing his hair then?

( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 9:32, Reply)

I would like to meet him.
As long as he looks more like Ed Byrne than Frodo.

Please tell me it's the Irish accent
Cos otherwise I'm forced to conclude that you have no eyes

What?!
He's gorgeous, he's got that sexy geek thing going on. The Irish accent is just icing on the cake.

Absolutely not seeing it
Glad you have a thing for sexy geeks though. Would you be prepared, in my case, to overlook the "sexy" part?
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 25 Aug 2010, 9:38, Reply)

No, that's fundamental to the sexy geek part
I'd say it makes up about 50%. Otherwise I'd be attracted to fat WoWers. Like psychochomp.

Bollocks
Why do so many women insist on men being sexy? Fucking inconsiderate if you ask me.

Agreed. Took me ages to find someone who likes short fat angry blokes with grey hair.
