Jo Brand's "throw acid not milk" at politicians joke

[Pickman's model]

politicians could be drowned in vats of acid. or barrels of malmsey. whichever is cheaper.

Ha ha, very funny. Presumably the lump has forgotten Jo Cox.

you sexist pig

you sexist pig

Yes, I wonder if the comedian's weight would have been an issue if he had been male?

Pretty idly wondering, because I know the answer...

 

[Manter]

It was a very normal kind of Jo Brand joke:

"...and they are very very easy to hate. I am kind of thinking, why bother with a milkshake, when you could get some battery acid? That’s just me, sorry."

One thing that you'd think pretty obvious about her jokes is the self-deprecating package they come in, and how no sane person could consider them incitement to anything.
There was similar pearl-clutching when she began her career and talked a lot about cutting up men.

And if you were going to incite violence, would radio 4 be where you started?!

 

[existentialist]

And if you were going to incite violence, would radio 4 be where you started?!

Only if you wanted an outbreak of particularly vitriolic tutting and a deluge of green ink!

I guess I could go on and claim Gardener's World and The Archers had been axed...

The tutting would break windows at 30 paces, but I still believe the fatalities would be minimal.

 

[keybored]

Battery acid is 32% H2SO4, which melts flesh as if it was candle wax.

H2SO4 doesn't melt candle wax.

The ending of the shipping forecast created some noise didn’t it? That’s about as bad as it gets

 

[polly]

I would 100% kill the cast of the Archers, even that really old one. I know that's a bit tangential, but just in case anyone who can make it happen is reading...

 

[Pickman's model]

You'd work your way up to it, you'd think

 

[joustmaster]

depends how hot it is

 

[not-bono-ever]

farage should “man up” a bit really. He was ok with rape jokes from his mates.


I hate man up but feels fitting

 

[wiskey]

Well there was quite a bit of understated indignation when Nigel fell off a roof ... Yet somehow the country didn't decend into chaos.

 

[cupid_stunt]

Battery acid is not at all innocuous. Trust me on this. I've had acid burns and they are not fun.

With your accident record, I doubt that surprises anyone, TBH.

TBF, the rape jokes came from some UKIP twat, not exactly mates of Farage nowadays.

 

[steveo87]

So to sum up, Farrage is a cunt.
Jo Brand isn't funny.
And there are better acids available.

 

[dylanredefined]

I'd go with phosphorus grenades as they are spectacular. If you going to throw something at someone you don't like. Or a Molotov cocktail. Acid is just not really trying and has lot of negative conatations with it being the weapon of choice of sexists and moped thrives.
Would holy water have the same effect?

An ordinary grenade you got a very loud bang and a cloud of thin black smoke. Kind of disappointing.
I find myself agreeing with Jo Brand

"The lump"? Fuck off back to your antediluvian village, cuntlugs. They're missing their idiot.

 

[Saul Goodman]

Battery acid is not at all innocuous. Trust me on this. I've had acid burns and they are not fun. As much as I think there are politicians worthy of ridicule, and certainly of milkshaking I wouldn't advocate acid throwing at all.

Dunking would be more effective.

Especially men called Gavin. As far as I'm aware, no Gavins were ever harmed by her comedy.

You always have such a way with words.

 

[Pickman's model]

And they're really naughty give 'em an acid bath

 

[ViolentPanda]

You always have such a way with words.

It's a gift.

 

[Proper Tidy]

I really hate this new trend for being nice to MPs, fucks sake

 

[neonwilderness]

the rest of what she said seems to have been forgotten...

"That's just me. I'm not going to do it, it's purely a fantasy, but I think milkshakes are pathetic, I honestly do, sorry."

Yeah, don't let facts get in the way of a good story

I'm surprised the press haven't tried to link this to Labour yet, IIRC she is/was a member.

 

[Dogsauce]

Should’ve just said throw salt and watch the horrible slug shrivel up.

"We're alternative comedians. That means we're not fucking funny".

Probably helping Jeremy Corbyn machine-gun the occupants of Belsen.

At least they weren't using milkshakes.
