Favourite Jokes From Stand Ups Page 2

The king of stand up Richard Pryor:

There are two billion chinese people living in China. That's how you know someone's doing some serious f**king.

Talking about when he was freebasing and accidently set himself on fire:
When that fire hit your ass, it will sober your ass up *quick*! I saw something, I went, "Well, that's a pretty blue. You know what? That looks like *fire*!" Fire is inspirational. They should use it in the Olympics, because I ran the 100 in 4.3.

and:
I learned something that day. When you're running down the street with your head on fire, people get out of your way!

Honestly I don't think I would laugh at any of those.

I asked God for a bicycle, but I know he doesn't work that way. So I stole a bicycle and asked for his forgiveness. (Emo Philips)

Now that one was funny.

Rick Mayall (RIP)

"What does a man with a twelve inch penis have for breakfast?

Well today I had a sausages".

That was brilliant.

Isn't it "What does a man with a two foot cock have for breakfast?

This morning he had a boiled egg

That wasn't an improvement. Mayall said "I".

Emo Phillips is kinda magical.

"I went to a karaoke bar that didn't play any '70s music. At first I was afraid."

"There's a new show you can host, "Through the Loophole". Who can afford to live in a house like this?"
--Sean Lock (to Jimmy Carr in the aftermath of his tax scandal).

I've seen too many live acts to remember, but he's top 5. Truly unique.

One of my favourites is from Lee Mack which is something along the lines of
"I don't drink in the house, in other news I've just bought a shed"

Quote: Chappers @ 20th December 2015, 11:26 PM GMT

He's brilliant.

No he isn't.

Jimmy Carr's 'Red wine with fish' should've got him a knighthood.

He is AWESOME.

Jimmy Carr in trouble again for telling politically incorrect jokes about dwarves.

If they didn't like it he said that they should grow up.

He made the same joke about 'If you're scared of pedophiles... Grow up.'
People criticise Jimmy Carr. Normally people who can't bestraddle a stage for 2 hours cracking 'em out like Bob Monkhouse on amphetamines the way Jimmy can. Legend.
Ah, while we're on Bob Monkhouse: 'My son is gay. He decided to come out over Christmas dinner. He said, Mother, can you pass the Brussel sprouts to a homosexual. And she passed them to me, there was a Hell of a row.'

Brilliant!

One I heard Harry Hill do live (though others comedians have also said it)

I have just put a sunken glass bottomed bath in my upstairs flat.

The people in the flat downstairs are furious.

Another Harry Hill joke:

I went in to one those Cancer Research charity shops the other day.

It seemed to be full of old ladies just selling clothes.

They are never going to find a cure for cancer that way.

Bob's Live and Forbidden DVD is stunning. An hour of gag after gag... Recently I saw a stand-up show and cos it was around St Valentine's everyone was going on about their sex lives, dates etc. Honestly my dear, I don't give a f**k. Just make me laugh like a retard.
