  1. Jimmy should have said ended the story "and then i had this incredible guilty feeling deep down inside as I watched him plummet towards the earth… perhaps i didn't need to push him out of the helicopter, but we both knew it was time" 🙂

  2. This was genuinely something special. Jimmy Carr is always hysterical, but in this he shows some humanity, and a philosophical depth that I never would have expected from him.

  3. Holy heck, about 10 years ago I abandoned a script about two jewish clones who were aspiring comedians but kept stepping on everyone's punch lines because I thought no one would ever find characters like that believable… What a fool I was.

  4. Jimmy Carr looks like Pinocchio made a wish to be a real boy but it didn't.. quite… take… He sorta looks like Richard Nixon's younger brother. Last time I saw a forehead like that was Frankenstein's Monster.

    Edit: Now that I've had an hour of Jimmy talking, I think he might be the Ouroboros. His head seems to be so far up his own backside, I'd say he was "taking out his a**", but his head is so far up there I think it looped back around again. He is a human tesseract of smug.

  5. phenomenal. truly. four comics that deliver from the intellect rather than the painful needy side of comedy, have one of the most present, human, and humane conversation I've heard, and, peppered with killer punch lines and callbacks.

  6. Big fan of everything and everyone here, but not knowing what an isotope is off the top of your head doesn't make religion any more true. "I don't know" is a huge part of science and it doesn't make any religious claim. That sentence meant essentially nothing.

  7. I find Pete Holmes to be one of the most annoying and least charismatic people ever.
    Something about him creeps me out, deeply.
    Like, I think he might be a serial killer. No evidence or reason to think that at all.

  8. Any info on the documentary that Pete says he watches each year… he refers to it as "Happiness", but not finding that; there is one called "Happy", but doesn't seem to be it… he talked about flow and line cooks, which is the part that caught my attention… any info to find it is appreciated.

  9. It's a different kind of the same type of atom. Meaning that it has a different number of neutrons but the same number of protons. I thought he meant that people don't know why things can have different chemical properties when they are so similar and that is still mysterious. But, you 1-upped him with your ignorance and was like "yeah…what is an isotope?". Either way I get it. Jimmy is so known for a quick set-up and move on, so it was interesting to hear him slowly build a premise. He kind of seemed a little coked up. Maybe he's just in a hurry.
