His supposed worldview is that everybody is as big a c**t as him; if they don't seem to be, they're just pretending otherwise for personal gain.

He's literally stated as much many times. Cartoon villain stuff.

Jesus. You'd pity him, if you could bring yourself to. He's Douglas Ross.

I was banned from the mobile library as a kid.

Was I cancelled?

Depends - was it because you were going to do a talk airing controversial views, or because you picked your nose and flicked it at the librarian?

Neither (me and a pal were caught kicking mud at the back of the truck).

You need to perform the litmus test of whether you have been cancelled or not. Open your mouth and let your belly rumble, and if you are quoted all over every right wing fleet street rag on Monday and prompt a slew of sycophantic editorial pieces praising you just for existing, then you've definitely been cancelled to f**k.

Remember the good old days when it used to be white doves they'd magic out of their pockets? He didn't do himself any favours in the fake knob department anyway...admittedly I was maybe eight or ten rows back, but it looked like a wrinkled two-incher.

Magic is the last thing I'd describe it as.

What time did he start when you went? Doors open at 7pm in Inverness but I can't be fucked going that early if he won't be on for hours.

It was a late show that the doors opened maybe 10pm and he came on 11ish - I think he might have done a double header that night TBH - I'm not sure as that time it was the bro-in-law who had picked up tickets for us as part of Christmas.

Cheers, I'll go about 8 and hope for the best.

Missed the start, think he started dead on 8pm. Think he's given up the willy thing, he showed an assortment of plastic ones at the end. Also explained a lot of his stuff is meant to be ironic a few times, obviously scared shitless of getting cancelled. 😜Laugh out loud quite a few times, was too far back to get much of the magic stuff.

I wouldn't worry too much about the card tricks, even from the front, they are what they are

I agree, he didn't need to explain as his very funny show stood on its own merits

I saw him once years ago at the Edinburgh Festival - pretty sure it was in that Udderbelly tent thing - and he did a show with a lot more magic stuff than I'd seen him do previously, but there was a camera trained overhead so you could see what he was doing close up on a screen.

Think it was billed as an actual magic show, but he couldn't help himself doing fifteen minutes of Madeleine McCann stuff because that was current at the time :)

I think it's always been the case with him that if you forensically analysed his act and picked bits out of it to be offended about you'd definitely find them, but anyone who did would be outing themselves in spectacular fashion as not quite getting what he was trying to do in the first place.

Have we had a poster yet who's been punted, only to go on a "Div cancelled me!" alias rampage?

Loving Oaksoft positing that left-wingers and liberals would have no idea about what it's like to discover consequences for voicing their beliefs  :lol:

cc Donaldsons solicitors has that one covered. Even went to the trouble of creating an alias Website.

Just cos one bad apple kidnapped, raped and murdered somebody who was probably teasing him, it's all gone "oooh, you can't say that, somebody might be offended".

Oaksoft's quite the supporter of trans rights, remember.

Unsurprising that the right to be a dick in the workplace would be of greater importance to him, however.

Teacher sacked 'after refusing to call schoolgirl, eight, by a boy's name' launches judicial review (msn.com)

But apparently there's no such thing as Cancel Culture as we keep being reassured.

Eh, you think a teacher should decide what name to call somebody's child? We don't know anything about the child and his biological history (just peeking at what nonsense you're coming up with now as your post followed mine, in case you're concerned)
