Heard that one yesterday on "Live At The Apollo". Don't recall the comedians name, but he is very funny. Mostly does on-liner's.

His version went something like "I farted in the lift and it was wrong on so many levels".

Another I recall is "So what if I can't spell aarmageddon, it's not the end of the world is it"

Not only are they crap I have heard them before.

I heard a variant of the "winner" a couple of months back.

IT guy sees blonde typing her password. He notices it takes her a long time to enter it, so he goes and speaks to her. She confides that her password is Micky, Minnie, Goofy, Daffy, Bugs, Cinderella, Dopey and Paris. She says it is the computers fault. When asked how so? She says the computer insisted her password was 8 characters and had to include 1 capital.

I like Tim Vine's stuff. Rapid fire, relentless and still funny. He must get through hundreds of one liners in a show.

Much better than Mcantyre's (sp?) "isn't it funny being middle class" crap.

Ah.....saw that dude too and quite liked him.

He did a gag near the start of his act, apologising to the audience that he was a 'one liner guy' then he said, yeah, I do one liners, I don't tell stories....and it's interesting how that came about........


Like Tim Vine gags too normally, but his live delivery is awful.
