Heard Any Good Jokes About Bankers? I Bet You Haven’t

December 17, 2009

Circus Clown Adam Lovejoy writes: Heard any good jokes about bankers recently? I bet you haven’t, because there are none. Never have been, as a matter of fact. Mainstream comedians don’t mock bankers, you see. In case they get some sponsorship deals going for them from the money men, or a bit of advertising. Like those two clowns in Britain did, who are voicing over a TV ad campaign for a giant insurer. Street cred out of the window, but who cares if the money is good.

The bankers should have been torn to shreds by now, on the stand-up comedy circuit at least, for what they’ve done to the world economy. But do you hear any worthwhile gags on the subject? No, you don’t. What the comedians come up with is not even remotely funny. Pathetic stuff, mostly.

The clowns are not entertaining the crowds the way they should be. (Check the image of the sad looking clown that comes with this piece.)

And have you heard any good jokes about President Barack Obama? Because he’s sure providing all the material himself, for great one-liners or even full sketches. His Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech in Oslo should have produced a torrent of jokes. But the response in America and beyond it was very muted. In the US they still do George Bush jokes and have a go at Sarah Palin, as if he still matters and she decides anything.

And how about that buffoon, Prime Minister Gordon Brown, in Britain? He’s done more damage to the country than WW2, in financial terms, and yet he’s getting an easy ride. Not to mention that strange sexless creature, Chancellor Angela Merkel or that Mr Bean lookalike Spanish Premier, Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, both of whom managed to screw up the economy and yet pretend that they are on top of things. And how about the communist freaks who rule China? How about having a go at them for keeping 1.3 billion people in a communist hellhole? Not a peep and not squeak from the comedy crowd on China. Too big for them.

And once we’re on the subject of political satire, let me ask you this: have you ever heard any good jokes about the European Union that is behaving like the new USSR, with unelected creeps doing things for which in recent past people were sent packing. I’ve never heard a single good joke about the EU. It looks ridiculous, it does ridiculous things and, quite frankly, the people in charge of it are tailor made for being mocked: Manuel Barroso, Herman whatshisname, Baroness Ashton… And yet no one among the funny crowd is having a pop at them. Just like you don’t really hear any good jokes about the United Nations, a gathering that has long ago lost all purpose. Just look at that Ban Ki Moon: he’s asking to get into a joke. He is a joke. Still, the clowns don’t notice that. I bet you they hope to get into some cosy UN sponsored project, like telling a tree in Africa a joke and making it grow faster.

And how about climate change? I’ve never heard any comedians ridicule global warmists, who really got themselves into a mess with those revealing emails from the University of East Anglia. Not to mention that Al Gore should have been slaughtered already by the funny men for his stupid film and his ‘wise’ investments into government funded clean technologies. But comedians don’t do climate change. Too important a subject. Might rub off on them financially. Like it’s happening now at the Copenhagen freak show, where some funny men are making an easy buck entertaining the crowds.

There are subjects, it seems, which comedians do not touch. Feminism? No way. Sacred stuff. Multiculturalism, that has been rejected by everyone by now? Nope, still too sensitive for having a go at. Drug taking, anyone? Another tough call for comedians. Too close to home for many of them. Prostitution? Nope, too much respect among the funny men for the legs-wide-apart-most-of-the-time tribe. Much easier to have a go at silly women who get married and stay loyal to their husbands.

When comedians stop doing their job properly all sorts of nasty characters get away with murder. That thug, Tony Blair, a war criminal, who is avoiding justice, should have been slaughtered by the comedy people. But he gets away with it, because he did some serious favours for the luvvies in the past. All is forgiven , Tony. Go make your money.

Degenerate pop stars and actors, who make idiots of themselves every day? Anyone? Silence.

When clowns stop entertaining the crowds properly the whole world turns into a circus.

    Well, I heard a good joke lately about bankers and I must share it with you. ‘It is so cold outside that even the bankers have their hands in their own pockets.’ hee..hee.. Read that joke on some website that is always stirring trouble but I check it out almost daily because they are terribly witty. :)
