Seriously, I keep waiting for that 'Triumph the Comic Insult Dog' moment to kick in, where he explains that the whole thing was a joke in bad taste, you know..?
"For me to poop on!"
But no, that context is seemingly lacking, wtf?
I'm honestly baffled, here. Jim Jefferies is normally GOLD in everything he touches, but... *&$@# is this anti-woman shizzle?
I MUST be missing the joke, right? Right..?
I saw him when he was on tour with Jimmy Carr and got a bit of a ick vibe from a lot of his material. It felt like he was taking the edgier, sexier angle of his schtick and instead of using it as a platform to make deeper jabs at our society, he was leveraging it for manosphere talking points.
Very disappointing. More like a Bill Maher show than a clever comic.
He was never good
Sorry, I skipped around, but the set was pretty eh for me, what's the timestamp for the joke you're interested in specifically?
I think the poop is implied. He's clearly a shock comic, his gimmick is saying things that make people uncomfortable. He's playing a character and how much of himself is part of that character, we can only guess , but when he's on stage he's "the guy who says humorous offensive things."
I'm sure many wouldn't find it funny, but I know that many do. As is their right.
