Fun fact: Gandhi lived and studied in London from 1888 until 1891. Jack The ripper also roamed the streets of London from 1888 until 1891....
coincidence?..... i think not.
Considering he slept with groups of naked young girls on his travels in India you might have something
So not so much peaceful protest as pieceful protest?
Gandhi the ripper, doesn't have the same Headline appeal.
There's a dig at Gandhi in, of all places, Anne Frank's diary. I recall reading, "Gandhi's on his umpteenth hunger fast."
When I was young i was told another version of the story, featuring an industrious ant and a lazy cicada. When winter come, the cicada knocks on the ant door and asks for shelter. The ant just say "you passed the whole summer singing, now dance" and slams the door.
Brutal, but works better.
Karl Pilkington offered another ending to the story, where the industrious mouse gets run over by a car before winter starts, the message being live live for the day
This is from Jean De La Fontaine... "La cigale et la fourmis".
Version i heard was similar, but the Ant and the Grasshopper. Same premise also as the Little Red Hen. You don't do the work, you don't prepare, you snooze you lose, take a hike.
@@garryiglesias4074 And much before, Aesop :)
Simply the best. Can't watch any other comedians any more.
Try Quinn Dale
He always makes me laugh 😆
Never noticed that the joke about the old lady mugged from Afterlife was a rehash of a joke from this
Most of Gervais material is recycled from previous shows or his XFM days
You’re brilliant RG
Laughed at the story of the mice. Reminded me of certain members of my family who pissed away everything they earned, had, on the moment never considering the future. Then they show up at my door, the door of the person who saved while he lived more modestly, carefully, saving resources and expecting me to share what I had conserved with them.
The attitude being that those who live more carefully are obligated to take care of those who don't.
The fallacy of m@rxi$m is that it attracts the latter like flies and the savers, hard workers, they give up because they know the fruit of their efforts will be stolen from them, if not by the people themselves, by the state.
Eventually the liability outweighs the assets and you end up with empty shelves and bread lines.
The story with the mice is normally or maybe initially the fable "La cigale et la fourmi" (the grasshopper & the ant) by Jean De La Fontaine. And at the end the grasshopper (lazy mouse) come to the door of the ant after singing all summer. And the ant replies : You singed? I am glad. Well dance now.
Cigale = Cicada, NOT grasshopper... AT ALL...
@@garryiglesias4074 sorry I took the suggestion of google and I didn't question it because I thought english people translate it like that and that's it. Calm down jesus...
La Fontaine's story was a re-telling of Aesop's fable The Grasshopper and the Ant. @@garryiglesias4074
😂😂😂 Love Love Love Ricky Gervais ❤ Political Comedians are the Bellwether of a healthy Democracy, because they remind us that the Emperor wears no clothes and has feet of clay. First ones to "disappear," under a Dictatorship. Mockery des*troys them. 😊
Love Ricky
You had the lazy mouse and the industrious mouse. Growing up, there was a PSA cartoon on t.v. of the industrious ant and the lazy grasshopper…in the 1950’s
There's a version too in reference to city - + peseant version of mouse
Genius
Another one about Gandhi-
When he was returning after meeting the King of England, he was asked by a reporter whether he felt at all embarrassed at meeting the King in a dhoti and sandals with nothing to cover his legs or torso? He replied, "I have nothing to hide. Besides, he was wearing enough clothes for both of us"
Guyssss i proper don’t understand why you can’t just post the whole show rather than snippets😩 I just wanna watch the whole thing even if I have to pay for it idc I can’t find it anywhere☹️💔
I HAVE IT ON DVD clue: it's written on the back drop by you know who😂
Netflix mate
Or if not Im certain its on spotify, I know its not the same as watching it but if you’ve never heard the full thing, it’ll do.
aged excellent :D stephen hawking
Ricky one of the best..
With recent allegations against Hawking, this has aged quite well
What allegations??
Sure, and not to mention the friendship btwn Gandi and A.H1lter...
@@PhilrcEpstein flight logs
Yeah there worrying has anyone heard has anything come of them? Evidence?
@@jamesw9873 Is there *evidence of actual wrongdoing* beyond being a plane passenger?
I've sat at the same lunch table with a few (alleged) Mafia "made men" during my high school days with scores of other classmates. Their extracurricular activities have always remained none of my business. My recently deceased uncle was a drinking buddy of a politician (also deceased) way back in the old days. I guarantee you that my uncle had nothing to do with any political hit squads which that politician allegedly operated. Uncle was a well-liked, fun drunk and party-goer in his wild youth.
how can a vegan who drinks carling be so funny? it's not natural.
Vegan?!?! No really?
@@superwoutI think vegetarian not vegan. Massive difference
@@trevorcook3129 not really, Hitler was vegetarian.
OK, that's funny. I took Philosophy of Mind as well ... Yes, I have a philosophy degree.
If only he knew SH had been on the island
Probably all the skateboarding 😂
What special is this from? I want to watch the full show.
Politics
I miss this Ricky :/
Chubby, XFM days of Ricky was the best. I think he is just doing the jimmy carr appeal now where he'll just say out of taste jokes just to hear the groans and shocks
@@NatS3703I like the one from today better, honestly
His "Idgaf" energy is hilarious to me
@underfire2364 fair enough :) he is Still funny :)
He's the exact same lol have you not seen his new standups?
@@iFreeZe2011 seriously? He used to want to be funny, regardless of whether it was offensive, now he just seems to want to be offensive, regardless of whether it's funny.
Why comment if you don’t like it?
Just walk away!!!
U know he loves us both
Comments mostly wiped. Aren't they?
Yes, youtube employees have become complete cunts, no free speech, and they support the NWO agenda.
That sounded like a laughter track!
That's why the spark is gone
❤️🇵🇹❤️
Audience WTF is Peter Ustinov?
I have to correct Gervais about sarcasm. According to research from Godalming University Department of Utterly Pointless Research (GUDUPR), sarcasm is three levels higher than previously thought. it has now been estabished that the lowest form of wit is practical jokes resulting in death.
Now,now,now! 😂 Please tell us more...What are 2 levels of sarcasm that are in between?
@@sourcessay8295 The form of humour directly above practical jokes resulting in death is, of course, Bernard Manning. As a fellow Brit, I apologise to the rest of the world for him. Directly above him is "comedy" films for adults that rely on pulling weird faces, falling off things and getting hit in the groin with large vegetables.
I should add that this was an extensive study undertaken by highly qualified researchers who don't think finding a cure for cancer deserves the priority it has been given.
We used to call that “thinning the herd.”
Ghandi is from India, say what you want about western civilisation, but anyone from India shouldn’t be talking. Culture on the other hand….
Wasn't he born in South africa
@@simonshiels1 I don’t think so🤔
@@simonshiels1 - I think you’ve confused him with Nelson Mandela. Easy to do considering how much they look alike.
@@simonshiels1 He was born in India, got his law degree in england, and professionally practiced in south africa
Ghandi grew up in RSA unless i am mistaken
SOUH AFRICAN Indian ethnicity
Ricky is a very intelligent and well informed human being, when he says something about this and that i believe 😂 he's the most sweet chick monkey i love 😘
Now the Chinese baby has grown into a responsible man
The spark was the little Chinese baby
That's why there not happy they lost the spark
Ok, now I'm curious about what Gandhi said. What does Gandhi mean by that? The colonization may have given some but it's actual intent was to create submissive slaves... 😮 Is Gandhi someone who has been... I think Ricky is on to something here.
Gandhi was implying that there is no western civilisation in the sense that the west is not as civilised as they think they are. In the context of all the atrocity westerners has committed in the age of colonisation.
Colonization was about attaining resources, initially spices.
The difference between Taught during a lesson... or Taught a fricken lesson!
I wish these were dated.
The fear in people's eyes and the respect for the devil
And his wife
It joined the right
barely tolerble
Brilliant political comedy to show the truth😊
You've got to love how he tackles pedophiles in Hollywood yeah, auroraborealisg? Um? Yeah?
Like your spelling 😂
Hes miserable without the left
Had a good time on Epstein island.
He used to be funny. A while ago.
Still is.
@@cherylween4973 I watched his special on Netflix around Christmas, it was absolutely terrible. He just recycles the same old stuff which seems to be designed to offend rather than amuse. As far as I’m concerned he stopped being funny when the collaborations with Metchant stopped.
@@tatata1543 who is Metchant?
@@cherylween4973 If you think about it very, very hard I’m sure you can work it out. Probably.
@@cherylween4973 Think about it, I’m sure you can work it out. Probably.
Is this supposed to be funny?
only if u understand the long words
Yep…it is.
I don’t find him that funny myself.
Don't find him then mate
