    Humoty dumpty is actually a cannon from the siege of colchester, it was up high and shot sown, hence humpty dumpty had a great fall.

  2. jsoutine says:

    I heard though, that during a recent archeological dig at the north pole, a version of the riddle dating back to 150B.C. was found, in wich Humpty Dumpty is described as an alien lifeform that crashlanded on earth.

    That’s an interesting post monkeybars101. Thanks. Whenever I need a good laugh I watch this clip! Cracks me up every time! (no pun intended!)

    The rhyme does not actually state that Humpty Dumpty is an egg. In its first full printed form in 1810, the rhyme is posed as a riddle and exploits for misdirection the fact that “humpty dumpty” was also eighteeth-century reduplicative slang for a short and clumsy person; the riddle being that, whereas a clumsy person falling off a wall would not be irreparably damaged, an egg would be.[1] The rhyme is no longer posed as a riddle, since the answer is now so well known.

  12. Mayfan777 says:

    ‘Dnt sit on a wall if ur an egg’
    Lmao

  13. bigbearleeds says:

    Yes, shame on you. George and Ricky are entirely different styles of comedian. Like comparing a singer with a painter. Comedy comes down to one’s individual sense of humour once you’re above a certain level of originality and delivery.

  14. bigbearleeds says:

    ‘know one’ or ‘no one’ ? And George who? Burns? Bit sill trying to compare stand-up comnedians since they all specialise in different genres and are good/bad in their own way. Originality and delivery are key.

    george is the man… this guy is good, but know one is george

  16. iamtheschoolnerd says:

    When He starts acting out a converation between a soldier and the guy in charge of all the king’ horses and all the kind’s men; I don’t know how anyone can NOT find that funny. He just acts like someone who knows they’ve fucked up PERFECTLY.

  19. iamtheschoolnerd says:

  20. christopherinsc1981 says:

  21. funerallimosine1 says:

  22. horny4Utube says:

  23. iamtheschoolnerd says:

    well carlin is funny but i still love ricky he is the best hands down. i mean ricky is the number one and like i said before if you dont like ricky then you dont need to see him

  24. pipesandsnares says:

    Oh mannnn…. George Carlin would cry if read that. He had respect for anyone who could get up on the stage, and so should you.

  25. adamjlynch says:

    Now I’m not arguing that Gervais is lame, but Dane Cook and Jeff Dunham?! When has ventriloquism EVER been funny? Please, watch a real comedian: George Carlin.
