James Shim the particular talk took place in Greece and the majority of people in the audience were ''fucking'' Greeks... No I guess the rest of the world isnt Greeks as it isnt British I guess..
There is *UNDENIABLY* nothing we can't understand here regardless of her nationality... Besides that she actually in fact FAILS miserably at humour and definitely that she is truly unfunny what else further proof do you want? We admit regardless of color and race that her humour sucks elephant dicks. That's just your opinion it doesn't.
no they aren't - she has taken on the British sense of humour - it's not Greek to laugh at oneself nor is it normal to be a stand up comedian. Greeks really do not have much of a sense of humour beyond slapstick (Benny Hill type)
@@jsidiropoulou I would strongly disagree actually and it saddens me cause your greek yourself. I hope you are not one of those people who think anyone but their country are perfect. Love your culture guys
"I try to balance out not to feel foreign in two countries" As an immigrant who has spent half his life in a foreign country I can definitively say that is not possible. Unfortunately that's what happens: at a certain point you realize that you've lost your old home, but you've not gained a new one.
Half Greek, half Irish..born and raised in England. Never felt like I belonged with any. I'm not Greek enough to the Greeks, I'm not Irish enough for the Irish. If I say I'm English, I get...no you're not.
It is the same to me at least in my same country, that person which grew up in small town almost in village and started studies, job in capital. After living in capital, I felt exactaly like I feel not a part of capital, and it is not my soul home, I do not feel belonging there, but when I return to my little town-village I also do not feel like a same province girl like before. Strange feeling. 😅
+MsDanceDiva234 ...this was shot in Thessaloniki, Greece. Which means the majority of the audience was Greeks (along with Brittish/Americans/English speaking ones anyway that have already been exposed to "English culture").
Comedy is objective. Some people may find things funny that others do not. Everyone has different senses of humor. You might not have that sense of humor
@@TheSeptuagint The Cypriot dialect of Greek can be hard to understand even for Greeks. 12 points refers to the voting for the song of Eurovision. Inside jokes.
Ofc it's true, it's not like one person woke up one morning and said these kind of people smell very quickly, these people will screw you no matter what, these people's blood is always boiling or these people like swimming in diarrhea. It's a process of observation that took centuries. So don't get offended next time someone tells you that you are cheap af.
I always find it strange when other countries can just accept consuming media in a foreign language. This is a Greek person, in Greece, talking to an audience of Greek people, in English!
I like her. The first TEDx I actually enjoyed tonight. I keep clicking the ones that have interesting titles, but they are like useless ranting about some supposed key to life that has been practiced to get the TED speech pattern down pat. She was funny, and original though.
I loved it when she was talking about world domination like all of the countries were children, that reminded me of Hetalia except Canada actually get noticed for something.
The funny thing is that I am only thirteen and these things just come to me randomly, I should start writing them down though. Plus I have been to a few conventions before and I enjoy them a lot! :3 I am usually that one quiet person in class that comes up with the best comebacks too, but I usually never say them because I know that I would get in trouble.

She is one of the most talented and strong women I have ever met. If you do not know her story I recommend you look for it immediately. (In short, in 2017 she was on a tour, she fell into a coma and almost lost her life) Today, stuck in a wheelchair, she gives us courage and makes us laugh and proud!

+Footwon she actually explained it in an interview she gave in Greek that the people laugh,but there are no microphones at the audience's side so it seems like she laughs because of her own jokes, As she said she's not a jackass she actually laughs from the people's reactions...
9 years later, she's on a wheelchair and with some speech impairment after an experience that took her really close to death and she is more amazing and more funny than ever!! A huge inspiration for her audience in Greece and Cyprus 💜
When I first watched this I didn't know what Eurovision was and now having watched exclusively Eurovision for the past six weeks I laughed so hars at "12 points to Greece"
She is addressed to a greek audience and most of her jockes make sense only for greeks. But she is one of the FUNNIEST stand up comedians I have ever seen.
When you watch a comedy special on tv, there are mics in the audience to catch the laughter. I have to imagine they didn't do that with this, so the laughter sounds muted or non-existent
This crowd was greek... and the jokes were for this specific crowd..... if you did not find it funny, maybe it is because you are not greek or british... stop hating, she is not bad
I THINK THIS ACTRESS HAS A GENUINE TALENT AND I HOPE ONE DAY THE RIGHT PEOPLE WILL UNDERSTAND IT AND HELP HER BECAUSE SHE DESERVES A BRILLIANT CAREER.ALL THE BEST KATERINAKI!I LOVED YOUR PERFORMANCE
Her point about the rain is so true. In Nigeria (where I come from) the rain is like turning your shower setting to massage but outside and everywhere you go but in England you can barely feel it. It takes like a few minutes to get soaked through but like back home the second you go outside you are soaked through.
Nightmare Rarity MLP we are barely noticed. we are like that quiet kid in school who always gets good grades. we're unnoticed . well... America seemed to notice us when Trump got elected.
First female stand up comedian that I've actually really enjoyed. And before you ask, no I don't find Sarah Silverman funny, think she's a cool person, but she'd not be a person I'd go for laughs.
I find her act surprisingly funny, she appears like these couchsurfers who just hitchhiked a long journey and showed up at your house, then later you decide to go to a pub and have this funny conversations about greeks and brits

ΣΚΡΟΥΤΖ ΜΑΚ ΝΤΑΚ I think it would be wrong to draw the conclusion it is just any talk about anything. To qualify for a TEDx event they have to meet certain conditions to get the license from TED to hold the event.
Omg this is sooo funny because it is so true!I recently travelled to Amsterdam from Athens and upon disembarking from the plane before we could enter the airport we had to go through a quick passport control and the Greeks were like ' What is this checkpoint about like as if we are in Uzbekistan,I thought the EU solved this blah blah' I was dead on the floor laughing coz it literally took 5mins only to get through! Love her!
I knew she was going to say "why can't you be like Canada" lol must admit we are very quiet and don't stick our nose in other countries business all that much. she so funny tho! I love her hair lol
The audience was affraid of not being politically correct, so accepting the joke would seem as an possibility to create an outrage among the MJ fans so they just froze...
It's not a great joke at all. Good jokes are more than saying 'hur durr it's Jackson 4 now because he's dead'. Sure that's kind of funny but a great joke? Nah, not at all.
Hahahaha I noted that aswell, very much in bad taste! They're still the Jackson five, just one of them tragically died, since when was it ok to make fun of the dead?
I'm throughly amazed by this person. I don't know if it's greek meets english or stand-up comedy side, but she's firing me up like a dynamite. Extraordinarily hilarious. That's also an english word that makes no sense. How is something so normal that it's weird? Ordinary -> extraordinary. Somehow the part of "greece you're making me look real bad" is even more effective after the recent events.
People who live in Greece or has lived in Greece can understand her humor and how it is smart ause she makes her point with humor

Luke B I guess you're right. Then how do you explain that this talk took place at a qualified/licenced TEDx event?
ΣΚΡΟΥΤΖ ΜΑΚ ΝΤΑΚ I'm using that
Omg this is sooo funny because it is so true!I recently travelled to Amsterdam from Athens and upon disembarking from the plane before we could enter the airport we had to go through a quick passport control and the Greeks were like ' What is this checkpoint about like as if we are in Uzbekistan,I thought the EU solved this blah blah' I was dead on the floor laughing coz it literally took 5mins only to get through! Love her!
This is the most beautiful thing in the world if you are a Hetalia fan.
Yeeees xD
eyy
It's even more beautiful if you are greek cuz you can understand some parts better😂 (ne ne papa,welcome to hell😂)
Except the bit about Canada being noticed. Poor Mattie
I knew she was going to say "why can't you be like Canada" lol must admit we are very quiet and don't stick our nose in other countries business all that much. she so funny tho! I love her hair lol
Her hair is magical.
so bloody marvellous! ... ευχαριστώ πολύ! 😍😂😜😉😊😘😘😘
jackson 4 joke made her seem cooler than the crowd lol
SHE IS F***ing HILARIOUS
The Michael Jackson joke is great.
Ted audience has a dull sense of humor.
The audience was affraid of not being politically correct, so accepting the joke would seem as an possibility to create an outrage among the MJ fans so they just froze...
I loved MJ, but that doesnt mean I didn't laugh at the joke. I hope they'll make a joke about me after I'm dead. I'll laugh at it if I could.
Death is as precious as Life.From any loss there is a gain.They go together hand by hand.
It's not a great joke at all. Good jokes are more than saying 'hur durr it's Jackson 4 now because he's dead'. Sure that's kind of funny but a great joke? Nah, not at all.
Oh this is amazing, I just randomly started watching this and thought she should really do stand up, she's really funny!
HOLY SHIT this is the best ted talk ever LMAO!!!
This is the best thing I've ever seen😂😂 Oh goodness, it's 2am. I *should not* be laughing this loudly.😵😂
Super cute & super funny!!
My parents are Greek, too. Katerina, you rock!
best part
"jackson 4...because he's dead...heheh" *complete silence*
It was disrespectful :/
Hahahaha I noted that aswell, very much in bad taste! They're still the Jackson five, just one of them tragically died, since when was it ok to make fun of the dead?
It was a bad joke... But it was very funny
erika warwick no one laughed neither did I
Greek woman confirms everything stated about Greece. Katerina, you are oh so adorably true! Well done!
That was so entertaining!
This was the best TEDx Talks I have ever seen!!! Oh my god. That was hilariously accurate. She is very funny! I appreciate her.
10:37 is where the fun starts hahaha
I'm throughly amazed by this person. I don't know if it's greek meets english or stand-up comedy side, but she's firing me up like a dynamite. Extraordinarily hilarious. That's also an english word that makes no sense. How is something so normal that it's weird? Ordinary -> extraordinary. Somehow the part of "greece you're making me look real bad" is even more effective after the recent events.
Έλα ρε Κατερίνα!!!
It's just too much!!! I can't laugh anymore, my face is hurting! 😂😂😂
