Hey, everyone!

Welcome back to New Zealand Comedy Month.

This week's article on my site is tangentially related to Kiwi humor with one big exception: Bo Burnham performed with both Taika Waititi AND Rhys Darby in 2017! 🤯

That's right, Bo was an unannounced guest for Rhys Darby's Saying Funny Things Society on February 15, 2017, along with Taika and Jerrod Carmichael. What a lineup!

My article also goes into all of Bo's appearances at the Largo post-Make Happy (well, as many as I could find online at least), but seriously...that had to have been an incredible night for international comedy fans!

Enjoy reading about Bo's Largo shows, and stay tuned for more New Zealand Comedy fun! ✌🏼🐔

One of the funniest things about history is how people got the ideas for some mythical creatures. Pliny and many European explorers thought rhinos were unicorns. Chinese explorers looked at giraffes and thought "Ah! Qilin!" and later got translated into Kirin by the Japanese. Not to mention the sailors that were out at sea with scurvy and dehydration mistaking manatees for mermaids.

Bonus, the only ones who got it right!:

Yo what if Merlin not remembering their own childhood is why Satrana can’t see Merlin’s past…

YEAH EXACTLY YESS!!!!!!!

It's like looking at a blank canvas

Like, if merlin is (or was) a human, their childhood was so long ago that it's just become either, too irrelevant to be remember or too far gone to even begin remembered

If merlin was NOT a human, then their existence was born out nothing and will never have it, they don't have a beginning just like how they don't have an end. (yes this seem a bit far more of a reach but hey a food of thought)

But if they were a human, that means with each amnesiac episode merlin not only lost memory, but also sense of identity, every. single. time.

And that somehow even more tragic to think about,,, no wonder Satrana can't see anything, what there to see if you can't even pin point where your life start? When you live as countless of different person? What there to see really if you're made of a myth?

Those thoughts kinds eating my brain rn,,, each cycle or each amnesiac episodes it's like merlin born anew , and that's very fucked up cuz he could forgot himself and everyone again the next day...

I like to think that there’s aliens out there watching us wrap our heads around trying to figure out time paradoxes the way animals react to seeing their own reflection, and finding it cute. They are probably laughing their assess off on alien instagram on every frickin time travel conspiracy page.

I made another solarballs comic inspired on a comic in a website, originally in Brazillian Portuguese. So I decided to translate one of the comics and do some changes XD

“This is a message to David Beckham.

I consider you, along with Kim Woodburn and Monty Don, to be a gay icon. You were the first premiership footballer to do shoots with gay magazines like Attitude, to speak openly about your gay fans, and you married a Spice Girl, which is the gayest thing a human being can do. But now it’s 2022 and you’ve signed a reported £10 million deal with Qatar, to be their ambassador during the FIFA world cup. Qatar was voted (as) one of the worst places in the world to be gay. Homosexuality is illegal, punishable by imprisonment and if your Muslim, possibly even death. You’ve always talked about the power of football as a force for good which suggests to me that you’ve never seen West Brom. But generally I agree - so with that in mind I’m giving you a choice: If you end your relationship with Qatar I’ll donate these ten grand of my own money - that’s a grand for every million you’re reportedly getting - to charities who support queer people in football. However, if you do not at midday next Sunday I will throw this money into a shredder, just before the opening ceremony of the world cup, and stream it live on a website I’ve registered called benderslikebeckham.com. Not just the money but also your status as a gay icon will be shredded. You’ll be forcing me to commit a crime - although even then I reckon I’ll get off more lightly than I would if I got caught wanking off a lad in Doha. The choice is yours! I look forward to hearing from you.”

i can't find that "women can't make a joke" post that described how men will "joke" about violence again women and we're supposed to take that humorously but women drinking from a "male tears" cup is literal violence. But it opened my eyes. Women "can't" make a joke in the sense that men won't "allow" them to by taking it humorously. Whereas cool girl women will be generous towards men's "jokes".
