>>69873085
They do and not only that, the fuckers have unbelievable energy.
I partied with a queer, tubby lad - no homo, he set me up with his female friend though - and after we were all awake for about twenty hours and ready to call it a night, the guy comes back form the shops with more alcohol and had been awake for about thirty hours already.
Only actual queer gays stay out though; the normal gays don't.
Karl was literally always right
>>69872730
>implying Karl runs that facebook page
It's quite plainly an intern or someone attempting to mimic Karl's speaking style in written form.

>>69873773
You've already been told to GTFO>>69872730
>>69873669
How? Karl doesn't even want to work any more, he just pops on for a browse every now and then.
He hasn't made a wall post since news years eve; he just replies to some people's comments on his profile.
He'd have no need for an intern.
>>69873981
apart from that particular New Years post, all the recent posts are "Karl" plugging his books/DVD's and whatever else is being sold. It's done in such a strongly promotional way that he just wouldn't do.
>>69873672
Link?
Not that it takes much effort to BTFO Ricky on anything science-related.
>>69874749
I'm not sure of the episode as they bring it up several times but a sixth former calls in who has an A-level in statistics or some shit and comes to Karl's aid.

Thanks a bumch anon.
>>69872730

>>69881226
And Karl wonders who would ever want Steve's voice for their product ("Is it an advert for tractors?" or something to that effect).
>>69877158
>It's a Steve refuses a girl on a train without even approaching her
>>69881268
I wouldn't
>>69881226
Ricky was pretty amazing at stirring shit up between them. He'd act like he was on Steve's side but he'd subtly set Karl up for the attack all the time, or make a big deal out of a bit of banter.
Like the time Karl said "No-one likes to pick on an invalid," or something like that. You'd expect Ricky to howl with laughter, or say something in Steve's defence, but you could hear a pin drop. He let it hang there to give it more weight than it was intended to have, and you can hear Steve get legitimately upset over it.
>It's a "Steve boasts of getting his ass pinched by a woman and Karl thinks he was actually getting mugged by a midget" episode
He's done you again, Steve.
OH HE'S DONE YOU AGAIN
>>69881104

The podcasts got me through some dark shit. Super comfy.
>>69881432
K-Karl?
>>69882721
Nah
how did you get into Karl?
i was a super pleb who loved everything Gervais did (even the crappy movies and stand up specials) and discovered the shows with Karl and Steve.
it was only a matter of time until he became only my 3rd favorite of the trio
with the derek crap, atheism and twitter non sense, my relationship with the guy is now "skull fuck him with hate" type of deal
>>69882400
Karls there and makes quips occasionally. You get to see how they slowly realise that Karl is funny

>Only actual queer gays stay out though; the normal gays don't.
I think this is true. I've only ever known two gay dudes my entire life, so it's not exactly a perfect testgroup, but one of them is the very definition of your stereotypical flaming gay dude. None stop partyer, drank all night every night, did alot of drugs, was the bitchiest motherfucker you'll ever see, enjoyed talking about how good of a cocksucker he was. Constantly in your face. The other one is just a quiet, clean, nice dude who enjoys the company of other men.
>>69873134
looks like we hit a nerve. lots of his ex member have came forward to call it a cult.
Funniest bit from the whole show is when Karl edited himself into a scene from Planet of the Apes. I was dying from laughter.
>>69872730
Based. /x/ and /b/ are really more up Karls alley.
>it's a karl gettin' 'is 'ead squoze episode

Theres enough episodes so it never gets stale to listen to. I dont think it will ever end friendo
>>69887410
I don't see any FB posts from him in 4 months.
>B-BYON FERRY
I listening to the one where Karl tells the story of that old women who went to the doctors, and the doctor thought she had a tumor, then when he went to check properly it turned out it was a pork chop she'd sat on 5 years ago and it was stuck on her ass ever since. I actually woke my flat up howling
>>69889251
he replies to people writing him on his page
It's my comfy show to listen to when falling asleep.
The catch of course is that in the earlier shows, Karl's mic is shit but ricky's laugh is like ear rape so every now and again it'll jolt me awake.
>>69889297
had sleep paralysis this morning and I was listing to Byon Ferry show and when ricky said that I could still hear the show and was internally laughing while frozen.
It;s the way he says it.
>It's a 'Karl is """"sick"""" again so Claire Sturgess has to fill in"
Sort of enjoying them now desu
>>69889505
need to give em a listen, ive skipped over them before because im cunt thats uncomfortable with anything that isnt familiar
>>69889500
how does that work? are you actually laughing or feeling the act of laughing without it actually happening sounds like fun tbqh
>It's a Suzzane tricks karl into marrying and then cucks him with more sexually charged men and divorces him and JUST FUCKS HIS SHIT UP
Don't do it, Karl
>>69889679
I just felt warm and fuzzy and could feel the muscles on my face try and move. Could feel it in my diaphragm as well.
>>69881104
>>69882261
what exactly are the 1998 tapes?
>>69889557
She's pretty quiet, Ricky and Steve sort of turn on each other because Karl isn't there, so she's just there to occasionally set up a conversation or stop them from bickering too much.

>>69882245
how has he done me?
>>69889505
My parents used to listen to Claire's evening show back in '03-05 when they were cooking or doing housework.She look's pretty hot
>>69883155
Hearing them talking about Blair, the Iraq war, being openly homophobic and racist and sexist and 'ableist' as well as 'fat shaming' on air is all very weird. They'd get fucked for that shit now, even though it was all tongue in cheek.
WISH WE COULD TURN BACK TIME
>>69890002
They would've been fucked back then if anybody actually bothered to listen to XFM on Saturday afternoons. Even then, Karl kept stressing out because Ricky wouldn't stop swearing
>>69890070
Karl was openly, although unintentionally, homophobic and racist on air. Well he was speaking truthfully but you know how people are.
>>69887597
>Seen this thing right, on err, 4chan and that.
>It's basically this bloke who's now 'alf a woman, still got his knob and that.

>Ricky: It was a pianist, and this is true, and his name was "Wayne King". I - do you like Wayne King?
>Steve: Karl, what's your opinion on Wayne King?
>Karl: I don't know his work.
>>69890181
fucking hell when he tries to explain the pre op tranny to Ricky and Steve
>its a man who is now half a woman
>>69890218
>Its, its, its a woman. Well, its a man.
>Play a record.
>It's a "Karl actually says something that genuinely makes him seem like a bad person episode"
That one when he just insulted a girl who liked Steve for no reason, and then again when she emailed in.
>>69890218
>>69890281
>Karl: No, well this is what’s weird about it! He, he’s got the top half, but not the bottom half sorted out.
>Ricky: What you mean, he – he’s got breasts and a wig, but he’s still got his, his boys, downstairs. His captain and the boys, are still there in his Y-fronts but upstairs he’s got a lovely pair of dumplings.
>Karl: Why do that?
>Ricky: Well, he’s halfway through!
>Karl: But why not get it done in one, one go?
>Steve: Maybe he couldn’t afford it!
>Karl: Well, wait, till you you’ve got all the money! That just looks a mess. And who’s he pleasing, there?
>Ricky: Well he wakes in the morning, pleasin’ himself, he can’t believe his luck! He doesn’t know where to start!
>>69890355
>She had a problem with 'er marrow and tha'
>>69882847
I still enjoy 00's Gervais stuff, but he's really taking himself way too seriously for the past 5 years or so. Like he thinks he's an actual "Artist" or something.
He was a philosophy major, so I guarantee he's fantasised about his stuff being taught at the academic level at least a few times.
Found Karl through XFM stuff on youtube in like 2007. Tried to show a few people how brilliant it was but no one was interested. Then 3 years later everyone loves Karl.
>It's a "We're never doing this again" episode
>>69890437
>Oh, I thought you meant she had one stuck up her fanny
>>69890574
Ricky thinks he's like some exemplar of reason and logic just because hes an atheist, literally the fedoracore poster boy, though he never seemed to mention it that much in the early days.
Probably twitter meant he could vent and it was received well so whatever, still very arrogant.
>>69873134
Not an argument.
>>69890574
RICKY FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT
>>69890859
I'm certain Steve has given him shit for this picture
>>69890174
>I'm not being funny, but they do all look the sa-
>RIGHT!
Karl also called Ricky and Steve a couple of benders once.
>>69890978
Steve and Ricky/Karl dont get along anymore
>>69891066
>anymore
they never did
>>69891143
Ricky and Steve definitely got along, they wrote everything together
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHdTve2PpeI
>>69891066
I waiting for them all to finally burn out of their failing solo careers, and then when they're all bankrupt, no doubt Ricky will ring them both up
>yeah look I'm sorry we've been apart for so long but uhh
>XFM Series 5...?
>>69890859
This picture sums up modern Ricky for me.
Is someone ever going to tell him that being Atheist is really no impressive? Like it's not clever to base so much of your philosophy on something you don't believe in.
>>69883240
O&A had numerous opportunities to break into TV/films, they just turned them all down
>>69891335
nah hes already had a "discussion" with Dawkins so hes pretty solid in his beliefs
>>69891066
Do they really not get one though? I know they went seperate ways but I didn't think it was because they all had a fall out or anything.
>>69891486
I thought Dawkins hated the "Fedoratippers" though? AKA the people who think they are intelligent for rejecting a belief system they never really adhered to in the first place outside of childhood, and doing so by simply quoting things much smarter people have said or written?
Because that sums up Gervais to a T.
I actually respect people like Dawkins for challenging the Conservative Religious establishment that actually did have a negative influence in American politics back in the day. But the Fedoratipper kids who go around trying to shove a Hitchens book down their old Christian nan's throat and stuff can fuck right off.
>>69891802
I don't have a problem with Dawkins, but its on youtube and its basically a cringefest with Ricky just saying all the same shit "I feel more awe than a religous person when I think about the Universe da di da di da" also he was brought up religous so that it is fairly significant but he is still pretty much a fedora tipper.
>>69892055
Weren't we all brought up religious though? We all went to schools that taught us about God and shit didn't we?
Ricky even said himself he rejected Christianity at the age of 8 without any pressure from his parents to continue, so it's not excuse to me. Not like he was raised in some super Conservative Christian household and his mum made him write with his right hand or some shit.

>It's a Ricky makes a man have a mental breakdown episode
>>69892261
fair enough I suppose. I was made to sing hymns and listen to a local vicar in primary school so it certainly wasnt an atheist upbringing, I agree with you.
He certainly seemed to outline it as some revelation when he decided he was an atheist which is maybe why I felt it was more significant
>tfw re listening to it for about the 7th time but still listen because cant sleep without it
>>69892261
>Weren't we all brought up religious though?
Nah.
>it's the bit about terrible band names
When will this end? It isn't funny Steve. It was never funny.
>>69890002
Fuck off you social justice cunt.
Why does EVERYONE on 4chan seem to hate Gervais? He's honestly my all time favourite comedian tbqfh.
>>69892945
Calm down, fedora boy. I'm in no way 'social justice;
Your reaction is the very same one a tumblrite would have at seeing something like fat shaming. No though, just pure outrage.
>>69893122
I don't hate him, i just think in recent years he has become a massive edgelord and produced some very weak stuff
>>69893194
I think I misinterpreted what you said anyway. Pretty sure you like their XFM show.
>>69893282
I think he's definitely fallen off, and the anti religious stuff gets pretty preach like. I'm an atheist myself and even he annoys me with his shit about it.
Still, I think Extras and the original Office UK are GOAT.
>Its a Rickys mum falls in a pond when shes about 70 and he laughs at her on air episode
>>69893288
Yes, I love it. I started this thread.
>>69893418
Sorry man. I don't consider myself fedora or whatever, I'm just really against this overly politicised world. I try not to let it get to me but I hate that people want to censor anything that dare hurt their precious feelings. As if that means anything.
>>69893358
Even Derek is ok at points but sometimes it is unbearably mawkish
>>69893505
I thought Derek season 1 was good but season 2 was incredibly unnecessary. It didn't really do anything and it felt like a baww fest. I'm not gonna lie it did make me fall to pieces.

what are your favorite Karl moments, bros?
One of my favorites was the chameleon PSA "stay green, stay in the woods, stay safe," but the saga of the wasp and the cricket might be giving it a run for its money
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FvuPk_mNhdg starts at around 18:20

>>69894867
Even Australia's own Hamish & Andy don't come close and they're pretty fucking hilarious.
>>69892261
>Weren't we all brought up religious though?
No, not really. I mean, we've always gone to church for weddings and funerals and shit. Sometimes at christmas, especially when I was young. Me and everyone else in my family is confirmated and all, but it's mostly just tradition you know. My dad is on the local church council and shit, but it's for the community. It's not like anyone really believs in this stuff. Maybe my grandmother and some great aunts of mine do, but you know, they're old. Grew up in a different time.

The guy's a sociopath that exhibits many cult-leader behaviours.
He's also a fucking unbearable narcissist.

He seems to care
