So the other day my sister was in town and we thought, mmmm
long time since we watched Churchill Live, so why not….off we trooped to
Carnivore for a good laugh
We laughed alright….the new acts were funny…..and we laughed
hard!!
BUT what was disturbing was the way in which MC Jessy ‘enjoyed’
the visiting South African musician. And she even sensed it and kept saying
that I don’t believe what you are telling me! That was in bad taste! I was embarrassed
to even watch it unfold…..waaaaaaaaaaaaa…… The audience was laughing at her!!! Adding
salt to injury, he made very inappropriate comments to a lady clad in a hijab, it
was uncalled for and utterly immature of him!! I was so annoyed!!! Eish!!!
Other than that very strange episode I came to a REALISATION! I
have outgrown these ‘tribal’ stereotypical jokes. They can’t even get a smile
from me!! I know it takes a lot to prepare to entertain people and I can only imagine what it takes to prepare for Thursday comedy…and I
also know that our wonderful cultural differences make for rich fodder/ material for comedy..... but it’s no longer for me!
I need a different brand of comedy!!
SO I enjoyed the ones for situations like the one beautifully
crafted by MCA Tricky…regarding visit to Parliament! That was hilarious and of
course the young man with his string instrument and eerily seems like its
talking!! Talent, raw and refreshing
