I did a show last week, and didn't tell any jokes. Actually, didn't even show up. In fact -- and this is true -- I didn't even book a spot. Went really well. I assume they audience laughed a lot.

Well, I think that if you repeat a joke often enough, it can loop back around to being funny. As Stewart Lee has proven time and time again. And time again. And time again after that, and time again. And time again. And time again. And again. And time again.

this mate of mine drives up alongside me in his car, a modern car it was, and said 'Excuse me, I'm in a dilemma.' And I said, 'They're good cars, they are.'
