he may be a pedantic, tiresome know-it-all, but he's a british pedantic, tiresome know-it-all, so that makes it okay?

John Oliver has gone full-blown SJW moron, his HBO show isn't even that funny anymore.

I totally hated transgender people until this shrill nebbish loser changed my mind with his humour

he's better than john hodgman, at least. which is kinda like saying a punch in the face is better than a kick in the balls.

I don't like the tone of this thread but I have something to say about John Oliver so I'm going to say it here: once you really, truly realize how often he says "to be fair," it completely ruins any chance you have of enjoying his show.

I don't like the cadence of his delivery.

ROFLburger posted:false His bit on the $10 vs. the $20 was lame, But then that whole "controversy" was stupid. Why is the $20 more "Prestigious" than the $10? Because that's what ATMs give you, so the argument is about whether a woman should be on the $10 or the $20. Except that in Europe ATMs give out all denominations of paper currency, 5s, 10s, 20s, 50s, and even 100s, so why is "It's what ATMs give you" more of a focus than "What woman should be on it"? Then his AOL skit was like 5 minutes of repeating a joke he just loving told. Then the credits were the bloopers from his lame 5 minute sketch.

he's okay i don't think he has the greatest voice. i don't watch his show but i like to watch youtube clips whenever they happen to pop up. i can't imagine listening to a full half hour of his voice.

In 2014, the Federal Reserve calculated that there are 1.9 billion $10 notes in circulation, and 8.1 billion $20 notes. A fact that takes all of like 5 seconds to look up and would have made the segment a lot clearer. For another comparison, there are approximately 1.1 billion $2 notes in circulation, a bill that a lot of people don't realize exists.

Upon further reflection, I don't hate John Oliver as much as the people who immediately clutter my FB feed with reposts of some dumb bit he did about inmate sexual reassignment surgery or whatever

The really important fact about US currency is there used to be a $10,000 note with Salmon P. Chase on it, one of the funniest names in history.

Only thing that really that I find really irritating about his show is that he uses the same laugh/cheer track as the daily show and it's totally over the top and annoying. edit: Pick posted:The really important fact about US currency is there used to be a $10,000 note with Salmon P. Chase on it, one of the funniest names in history. Yeah, during the Great Depression when no one had $10,000 to spend.

That's a fact that is tied 100% to the ATM thing, and a fact that can and will change when they decide to change up the bills. And having more of something is the exact opposite of being prestigious (except in Tumblr Land), and having the U.S. President most renowned for his hatred of paper money and fiat currency and federal reserve banking be on the most ubiquitous bill in existence is the most America gently caress Yeah thing ever. John Oliver does not understand America.

And having more of something is the exact opposite of being prestigious (except in Tumblr Land), Having a commemoration seen by more people is more prestigious than a commemoration seen by fewer people. This is why big funerals are more prestigious than being hucked into a box and thrown in a storm drain.

Human rights violations and humorous juxtapositions upset me. Why isn't he talking while playing a video game?

My Q-Face posted:John Oliver has gone full-blown SJW moron, his HBO show isn't even that funny anymore. He's a less edgy but still sanctimonious Bill Mahur like John Stewart and Colbert. He can be funny and insightful when picking on easy targets like Big Tobacco. He can also be funny when talking other complex targets. He is also entirely viewed as an icon because his views match his demographic's and people like hearing celebrities say stuff they already agreed with. That's all.
