Mist All Chucking Frighty!!!; Spoonerisms Extravaganza

This was allegedly shown on BBC TV back in the 70's. Ronnie Barker could say all this without a snigger, though after what knows how many takes. The irony is, BBC received not one complaint. The speed of delivery must have been too much for the whining herds. Try getting through it without converting the spoonerisms [and not wetting your pants] as you read....... Quote: This is the story of Rindercella and her Sugly Isters. Rindercella and her sugly isters lived in a marge lansion. Rindercella worked very hard frubbing sloors, emptying poss pits, and shivelling shot. At the end of the day, she was knucking fackered. The sugly isters were right bugly astards. One was called Mary Hinge, and the other was called Betty Swallocks; they were really forrible huckers; they had fetty sweet and fatty swannies. The sugly isters had tickets to go to the ball, but the cotton runts would not let Rindercella go. Suddenly there was a bucking fang, and her gairy fodmother appeared ... Her name was Shairy Hithole and she was a light rucking fesbian. She turned a pumpkin and six mite wice into a hucking cuge farriage with six dandy ronkeys who had buge hollocks and dig bicks. The gairy fodmother told Rindercella to be back by dimnlight otherwise, there would be a cucking falamity. At the ball, Rindercella was dancing with the prandsome hince when suddenly the clock struck twelve. "Mist all chucking frighty!!!" said Rindercella, and she ran out tripping barse over ollocks, so dropping her slass glipper. The very next day, the prandsome hince knocked on Rindercella's door and the sugly isters let him in. Suddenly, Betty Swallocks lifted her leg and let off a fig bart. "Who's fust jarted?" asked the prandsome hince. "Blame that fugly ucker over there!!" said Mary Hinge. When the stinking brown cloud had lifted, he tried the slass glipper on both the sugly isters without success (and their feet stucking funk). Betty Swallocks was ducking fisgusted and gave the prandsome hince a knack in the kickers. This was not difficult as he had bucking fuge halls and a hig bard on. He tried the slass glipper on Rindercella and it fitted pucking ferfectly. Rindercella and the prandsome hince were married. The pransome hince lived his life in lucking fuxury, and Rindercella lived hers with a follen swanny!	Con fused jus Posts: 834 Group: Administrator Member #4 Joined: February 15, 2008

Maybe this is one of those "guess you had to hear it" moments?	Posts: 1,360 Group: Administrator Member #2 Joined: February 15, 2008

To be fair, it is 'very British' humour, perhaps having greater appeal to those whose ethnicity leans that way.	Con fused jus Posts: 834 Group: Administrator Member #4 Joined: February 15, 2008

Joe E. Holman Oct 2 2009, 06:20 AM Maybe this is one of those "guess you had to hear it" moments? Yeah, the trick is to read it aloud, rapidly while sporting a contrived, heavy British accent...though I also tried it with a thick German accent, which was even funnier. On second thought, Fuck that. Americans prefer it when our comedians just cuss, flat out. We are a raw, gritty lot, at times.	Posts: 99 Group: Member Member #46 Joined: January 22, 2009

Somehow or other, the concluding statement doesn't necessarily follow on from the proposition - for me.	Con fused jus Posts: 834 Group: Administrator Member #4 Joined: February 15, 2008

Somehow or other, the concluding statement doesn't necessarily follow on from the proposition - for me. That's because of the way your "ethnicity leans" as you called it. What I meant was that American comedians have a long tradition of using "raw and gritty" material, combining political and social commentary with satirical humour. They don't use spoonerisms, they use the actual cuss words. Lenny Bruce was the forerunner of this style of comedy(late 50's/early 60's), but you can see his influence in later American comics, esp. Pryor, Carlin, Kinison, and more recently C. Rock, Chapelle, Stanhope, just to name a few. But me, I don't discriminate. I enjoy humour that is ..um...funny. I happen to love British humour. There's a strong sense of the absurd in it, which I find appealing. Some comedians seem to use a hybrid of both styles of comedy ...Izzard, Gervais(UK) and Chapelle(US) spring to mind. -- In honor of Lenny Bruce...a quote... There are no cuss words in it, but I thought it was amusing: "If Jesus had been killed 20 years ago, Catholic school children would be wearing little electric chairs around their necks instead of crosses." ~Lenny Bruce	Posts: 99 Group: Member Member #46 Joined: January 22, 2009

Yes, my leanings are towards the subtle, the satirical and the innuendo. I enjoyed the few bits of George Carlin I've seen. Ricky Gervais, too. But I draw a parallel between humour and debate. In debate, when one debases oneself by name-calling, swearing and ad hominem remarks, one has lost the debate - mostly. Humour seems much the same. The 'need' to stoop to a succession of four-letter expletives degrades the humour and the humorist - generally. To call it raw and gritty seems to me to be a eumphemism for vulgar and crass. As I've observed before, it seems that the 'jokes' foisted on many USAmericans via TV are so bad that a laugh machine is needed to lead them, as the humour is indiscernable, otherwise. That's plain scary.	Con fused jus Posts: 834 Group: Administrator Member #4 Joined: February 15, 2008

The 'need' to stoop to a succession of four-letter expletives degrades the humour and the humorist - generally. To call it raw and gritty seems to me to be a eumphemism for vulgar and crass. Generally, I would agree with that, except to say that there is a definite distinction between "raw and gritty" and "vulgar and crass" though the two can certainly overlap. "Raw and gritty" refers to a certain style of comedy that stems from New York comedy clubs. Many famous American comics are from New York...or have spent time there working the comedy clubs trying to make a name for themselves, but the raw New York style of humour isn't dependant upon cussing to be funny, It just so happens that many New York comics speak very directly and many of them cuss alot. If that's all they had to offer they, they would be booed off the stage. The competition is tough. What I find appealing about New York, "gritty" humor is that many of the comics offer insights into social institutions, such as religions, government, in ways that not only makes people laugh, it makes them think...and sometimes say inwardly, "Yeah, that's true, I never thought of it that way." ... Perhaps, some people underestimate the power of comedy, satire for social change..? ...I'm not one of those people. Edited by Carmel1110, Oct 7 2009, 08:07 PM.

It's inherent in the nature of true artists to reveal things about our mundane world that we'd miss, not appreciate or simply ignore, ordinarily. With that I concur, unreservedly.

Hmmm. This is a little too Folk Loreish for my palette. I know Ronny Barker and he was a wizard with words and their pisromunciation. But he never said these words and it certainly was never broadcast. He was far to clever a wordsmith to be caught with anything so openly suggestive.

I added the word 'allegedly' to allow for that very prospect. Edited by Perry, Oct 10 2009, 03:49 AM.	Con fused jus Posts: 834 Group: Administrator Member #4 Joined: February 15, 2008
