Not talking money wise. That can simply depend on syndication. Cast of Seinfeld make millions a year off royalties. Jordan now gets $100m a year off Nike.

Talking more about getting more work in the industry. For the most part most struggle there. Even Miley Cyrus struggled after becoming an adult, spent years going all weird to break out of the ‘Tween’ act and went rebellious. Harder to break out of in film, everyone sees you as the adorable kid on that show or movie. Hard to break out of the mold.

True. I think its harder these days too with franchises.
Everyone that was in Harry Potter is kinda screwed like that.

Without the glassing, but with a mobile phone. There is a picture of him with an icecream cake he bought for himself after his 100th sexual partner. His teammates actual bring up an icecream cake in one of those locker room interviews, without referencing what the cake was for. Pretty much confirmed it was true.

not just 100 partners but 100 partners in 100 days

There's a video clip by GWS of Dom Tyson & Patton chatting about things including "having ice cream for 100 days in a row" and how he celebrated - surely the club wasn't so naive to know what was going on or did they just bury their heads in the sand to pretend it wasn't actually happening

Nah Carey's MO was apparently in clubs when women turned him down was to do the whole "why dont u get a bigger set of ****" thing.


Lmfao as for the cake. That is just tragic. Its like something a teenager would do, "hey bois check out how many chicks ive banged!!!!"

Grow up.

Apparently he went and got the cake out of the freezer after his 100th, and offered the chick a piece. What a campaigner.

 

[Spazz Cat]

The chick who played kimberly became a junkie prostitute i think. One died in a botched armed robbery? It didn’t end well for most of them.

Yeah she ended up a bit rough. Lost the middle bit out of her nose from all the coke too I think.

Eh. Idk, maybe it shows immaturity as well as insecurity on his part.


And its really not the worst thing ive heard.

Didnt some rugby guy take a dump in the shoes of a woman after some group sex. I would have legit gone nuts on his arse, made him ****ing eat it up.

 

[cats_09]

No sh*t? They got new ones? Any good?

starts tomorrow night, so not real sure

they had a few specials they showed across last year - they had actually been filmed late 2019, and the tickets were done via ballot due to the popularity. Those 3 were good as there was a focus on the 90s, 00s and then 10s

The ones with Adam, Myf & Alan (including last years specials & hopefully the new ones) are much better than when they tried to reboot it with others hosting

Ahhh thats like Buddy and Gibson with the Tripple Figure N***a. Dunno who won.

Best live stand up I ever saw was an act in Florida... Brian Regan.

Absolutely hilarious- and very little smutty kinda of humor, iirc he never even swore. (not that im offended by that- its just most live acts swear their heads off)- he was just brilliant.

Went on a cruise a few years ago, and they had a comedy lounge there and the comedians they had on the ship had to do an all ages show as well as an 18+ show. One of the guys was clearly unprepared for the all ages show, as his set only went for about 10 minutes, before he decided to get kids in the audience up on stage and tell their own jokes for the rest of his 30 minutes.

One comedian was funny though. He was asking people in the audience their ages. "Do we have anyone over 30?" Heaps of cheers went up. "Anyone over 40?" A few less cheers. Then he said "Anyone over 60?" And my mother was the only one in the audience who cheered. After the audience stopped laughing, he goes "Wow, I was surprised you could even hear me!"

Saw Ahmed/Ahmed? Little lebbo guy anyway. He was funny.
And Arj Barker. Was heaps funny.
Had tickets to go see Noel Fielding once. But got too pissed before it and didn't go.

Akmal, not Ahmed. Yeah, he's awesome. Love Arj Barker too.

Perhaps a comeback to that "Yeah and I can see too- you're ****ing ugly"

Ahhh thats like Buddy and Gibson with the Tripple Figure N***a. Dunno who won.

but for the club to put the clip up on their website & it still be available (as of a couple of months ago) that's kinda bad

not sure there was anything footy related to the clip at all but still posted on the club website for all to see

 

[Shell]

Akmal's appearance on Selling houses Australia was legit gold.

I recommend anyone who hasnt seen it, to look it up

 

[Shell]

Wow i got shit to do (not in anyone's shoes)- i gotta get up.

Nice chatting with you folks about a whole range of topics.

 

[Baudolino]

Another reason to cancel ABC. Gave the world the cancer that is the chasers, charlie pickering and Shaun micallef.

There. I’d make a good politician. Just saved the taxpayers a couple billion.

Agree Pickering is terrible. The Chaser is hit and miss.

Shaun Micallef is a genius though, he's the only truly world-class comedy talent currently active in Australia. The level of writing on Mad as Hell is unironically 10 or 15 times higher than the level of writing on other local shows.

Franklin.

Chaser were great way back in the 2000s until they went to crap.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Franklin.

Ta. Thought he would.

 

[Baudolino]

You are aware that there's actually no PC do-gooders in this case, that it was a joke to get this exact reaction and you've fallen for it

I feel a bit ambivalent about this prank.

If the intent is purely to mock the propensity of right-wing journalists to ignore real news in favour of desperately pursuing and sensationalising culture war stories without even bothering to research them then I agree with the satire they're going for. However, their suggestion that the prank was obviously fake because no one would take offense to something as trivial as Fairy Bread is stretching it. Some of the stuff woke people come out with really IS indistinguishable from this kind of satire.

The right-wing is dumb and hyperbolic when it comes to culture war stuff but let's not pretend like there's no issue whatsoever with the wokies lol.

Someone sent me this. Is great.

 

[Down at K Park]

Someone sent me this. Is great.

That is spot on. She is an absolutely horrid piece of work. She’s actually the attorney general now replacing the accused rapist. How someone as laughable as her got to that position really is a sad indictment on our parliament.

Emily Taheny is amazing.

Yeah just a campaigner of a thing. And agree it's sad. It really is.

I don't know who she is TBH. But that was brilliant.

 

[Baudolino]

She does lots of characters on Mad as Hell. One of my favourite comedic actresses. Here's her parody of Triple J...
