      Being A Caster you’d have thought six identical cream horns would be a doddle:
      A Caster
      2. To attempt to have your cake and eat it too...
      In addition...
      A Caster is a person that can shift an occupied room’s atmosphere or mood by their presence alone. This can be attributed to the caster’s strong aura or spiritual energy emanating from their heart chakra or a very strong emotional state. Caster’s have the ability to shift the atmosphere of a room in both spectrum of polarity. Good or Bad. Warning ⛔️ Some casters are oblivious to this ability.

      I watched this clip before I watched the show (Cold Lasagne Hate Myself 1999). I thought this clip was hilarious until I learned the entire context of what happened to him before and after this moment in his life. I'm glad he said that he is actually already done processing everything he shared in the show, but it still made me really really sad to hear how he felt throughout the stories in this show. This special was both more energetic but also more depressing than he previous special Repertoire.

      I've always thought, and this clip makes it far more likely that I'm right, that him saying that was more just... him explaining the situation. He started making it, had a literal breakdown, and here it is. Obviously, he's a brilliant comedian and put his spin on it, but it's never come across to me as an actual joke.

      David Attenborough does a lot of nature documentaries and the camera team often see some harrowing moments. Sometimes they might feel like they can step in and stop it happening but morally they can’t because if they weren’t there it would’ve happened. Seriously heartbreaking stuff, I’ll always remember a little baby bird being blown out of its nest on a rock… you’d think it’d jump back in but it couldn’t and unless the parents see the chick in the nest they won’t feed it… as I said heartbreaking and easy to fix but morally complex. There have been a few occasions they’ve stepped in - search up them saving penguins.

      One of the best things about this special was his outright contempt for the audience. As comedic devices go, telling the audience repeatedly how sincerely you hate them, and having them not only burst into hysterics but genuinely take your side in the argument, is about as good as it gets.

The coffee came out like a spraying hose and went directly for my friend's handmade blanket (which I also previously accidentally set on fire), and her DND books. Still choking, I picked up the sentimental blanket, rushed to the bathroom to wash the coffee out, but managed to pull the shower curtain and rod down onto me on the way. 10/10, would recommend this video!

    Bless you, you poor thing! I’m kinda sorry I laughed so hard. It was like laughing at your best friend after they take a spastic fall. Thank you for being able to laugh at yourself and let us laugh along. Just so you know, every time I mess up a dish I’m cooking I still serve it to the family and when they start to ask what happened I repeat your line ending with bon appetit and everyone laughs and then eats it anyway. Thanks. :)

    James Acaster is probably my favorite living comedian. Bob Mortimer is hilarious, but idk whether he's a comedian or simply personality writ large. You don't get the idea that being funny is his main goal, somehow. Actually, with Bob Mortimer, it feels like he just wandered by and decided to visit.
    With James it's more like he really wants to tell you how f'd up everything is, but he doesn't want you to retaliate, so he's going for the strategic laugh instead.
    Which is more or less my experience of the world.

    This was me today walking around downtown trying to find my friend I was gonna meet up with but her phone died and she never told me where to meet her. Walked 13 miles total. Went to a coffee shop and started having involuntary spasms so bad that I left because everyone was staring or pointing at me. Hadn't slept a wink in two days. Two bars acted as if I was homeless and needed to leave immediately as soon as I walked in the door just because I wasn't wearing my best outfit.
    But I found the friend. And we reconnected. And it was worth it.
    But mate...living in the UK sounds tedious as hell.
