A lovely Irish smile

On Friday saint_moro and I saw Dylan Moran performing at the art centre! How can a chain-smoking, wine guzzling, messy haired comedian be so hot? Maybe it's his Irish accent, I blame Ballykissangel for that particular fetish. ;) Unfortunately we didn't get to see the whole smoking, drinking, joking thing that he usually does because in Australia he wasn't allowed to smoke on stage. But he did have wine and Jaffas, which he threw at the audience (the lollies not the wine).

He was oh so funny, and I love it when comedians study up and play on the rivalries within the country they are performing in. *shakes fist at Sydney* :P I can't really remember the jokes well enough to do them justice and you need the accent to make them work. But, he did a cute thing about having kids. How when you have them you're really excited at the prospect of teaching them literature and history and geography but all they want to ask is "does batman have nipples?", "what's the name of the space between the prongs in a comb?", "what do you call the space under a kettle?". Heh.

He also talked about how when Madonna and Britney are magazines they've got this whole "I'm awesome, and I get people to peel my grapes for me" look on their faces, but when Irish people have their photograph taken they look like someone has whispered in one ear "You just won 5 million dollars and you can spend it on anything you like" and at the same time someone else has whispered in the other ear "and you have 10 minutes to live".
Example A: :P


But seriously guys if you ever get a chance to see him do, b/c AWESOME+HILARITY.
