Stupid bloody sketch, why do I bother?!

Don't know why I just thought this, but here goes...

... on second thoughts, as I type this somethings telling me it's not a good idea...

... but I'll let you lot be the just of that...

... Errr ... Huh?

INT. OFFICE - DAY

THREE MEN STAND AROUND THE WATER COOLER CHATTING. STEVE, MICK AND TONY. TONY IS NEW AND STILL SETTLING IN, MEETING EVERYONE.

STEVE
(Pointing to a man at a computer)
That's Dave, he's a prick, stay clear.

MICK
(Pointing to a woman carrying files)
That's Helen, she's a right whore.

STEVE
(Pointing to a tall man adjusting the window blinds)
That's Tall Pete, he's a good bloke.

MICK
(Points to a black guy facing the other way, at a printer)
That's Monkeyface.

TONY
Woah, woah, Hold on. What did you say?

MICK
That's Monkeyface.

TONY
That's a bit racist in it?

STEVE
What do you mean?

TONY
Just 'cos he's black, you can't go around calling him, a name like that.

MICK
Don't be silly (To Monkeyface) Oi Monkeyface, come over here.

MONKEY FACE TURNS AROUND TO REVEAL A NAME BADGE ON HIS SHIRT WITH THE NAME 'JOHN MONKEYFACE'.

TONY REALIZES AND LAUGHS AT HIS MISTAKE.

MONKEYFACE
Yeah, what's up?

MICK
I was just telling Tony here about everyone.

MONKEYFACE
What did you say about me?

MICK
I was about to tell him, you are a right c*****n b****t e****g, b***o p*****g, t**e s******g, b****a e****g, v****o p*****g n****r!

MONKEYFACE
Yep, that sounds about right.

END

... This sounded funnier in my head, but as I print it out, it just sounds wrong and bad and shame on me...

Hey Leevil, that's excellent, no need for the false modesty.

I would suggest you change 'monkeyface' to a less incendiary target though, like 'John Bumstabber' or something, if only to protect your letterbox and doormat from dogshit.

Also, you need to complete the joke by saying 'that's monkeyface, he's a loser/prick/great bloke' etc.

But good one! One of the best sketches I've read on here.

It's not false modesty, I thought the sketch was cheap, but I like your suggestion to use another target and the bit at the end.

If you really do think this is one of the best sketches, then thanks, if you're taking the piss, then erm thanks?

I try to avoid using irony, it sails over too many people's head. If i said it was good, I mean it goddammit!

No free rides in my cab though, chicken balls.

Well I laughed - but then again I would!
