- Trick-or-treaters were turned away from Jeff Bezos's house this year, because the Amazon founder skipped town for a yacht party with fellow billionaire Bill Gates. Over in Europe, G20 leaders tossed coins into a fountain to celebrate their agreement on a target date for global net zero carbon emissions. #Colbert #Comedy #Monologue

As a Catholic, i've just never understood the selfishness of the rich . They have so much , and simply refuse to do without so little.
If you can't relieve suffering and don't, then you are the same as the person who inflicts the suffering .
Disgraceful.
Actually the rich are definitely the ones inflicting the suffering, that’s why they don’t do anything about it.
As an agnostic, I agree.
As an atheist, I've never understood it, either.
Look at the churches and the wealth most have and could solve many problems as well.
You can say the same thing about God. Religious people like to blame the bad things on the Devil but If God can relieve suffering and doesn't, then he is the same as the Devil right?
The paper straws on a helicopter was such an incredibly clever joke that accurately points out the hypocrisy of the wealthy’s attitude towards climate change. Kudos to Colbert and his writers.
Thanks for mansplaining the obvious.
Meh, Gates at least offsets all his carbon by financing tree planting. Do you? Thought so
I’m wondering maybe it should’ve said Bozo .
@@freegee5790 Impressively sexist response to something that wasn’t involving gender 😂
Best writer's room in the business, by a loooong shot
The only thing I ever seen these leaders do about climate change is talk about how urgent it is to reverse climate change. It’s like if the fire department put out fires by sitting around a table talking about it.
So they should NOT talk about it then?
@@morpher44 They should ACT.
Its been "urgent" for over 40 years now. ProTip: it's not urgent, its just another scheme to get money from the populace.
@@RobinDale50 Some folks are certainly scheming to get money with green tech but many communities have already felt the effects of changing norms in climate. What did you expect, Day After Tomorrow quickness? Just because we'll see more extinctions and destabilized ecosystems a generation from now doesn't mean it's fake. Be glad it's gradual because human race is stinking slow to get off its ass
It’s all made up to keep people ruled by oligarchs. Don’t be a damn fool.
Imagine spending enough money in a week to float on water that could sustain 20 families comfortably for a year.
imagine that much money just to keep human garbage afloat?
"[...] at twelve o'clock I will turn back into a pile of hay!" Now, that is not just funny. That is insanely hillarious in SO many ways! Genius!
I live in a small house, making less than Bezo’s official salary, and I still give out full sized bars ffs. That dude could’ve had a pallet of candy just laid outside if he didn’t want to be around the masses
He wasn’t even home, so what’s your point?
@@tahiragibson6407 Some people on modest incomes, who are not going to be home on the night, will put out a bowl of candy and a "please take one" sign.
@@tahiragibson6407 The point is that the asshole would be charging the kids if he could think of a way to do it!
Nothing is greedier than a billionaire.
@@ireallyreallyhategoogle the only thing greedier than a billionaire is a trillionaire. But they don't exist yet.
I'm all for ethical capitalism but, my god, $2 million a week to rent a yacht? That's downright obscene wealth that should go for taxes or at least for employee bonuses, salaries & wages.
It should be 2 trillion a minute
look at it this way, the money is going to the employees of the yacht rental company

Support living wages for all!
@@xbb1024 Doubtful, maybe the company ceo
So true, my only thought is they can’t take take one cent with them on death 💀 The equaliser
The guy who didn’t pay income taxes for 12 years, doesn’t hand out free candy. Shocker.
Man with more money than the rest of humanity will collectively ever see refuses to share 20$ in cheap candy. Yup, sounds exactly like that misanthrope who treats his employees like serfs
and the guy who rode on epsteins plane same as bezos, and has been advocating the lockdown policies that made him 100's of billions...is calling him out over candy not actual substantive criticism
controlled opposition much?
@@apokatastasian2831 smh the reach
He probably regards Halloween as creeping socialism.
And the Bible asked in the end of days, why are religious folks so afraid to be Godless?
A multi-billionaire who makes his employees pee in bottles and poop in bags (so he can go to space) doesn’t even give children any candy for Halloween? I’m not shocked I say, not shocked at all!
But Bezos looks like Uncle Fester so you'd think he would love Halloween.

Pee in bottles and poop in bags? Where did you get that idea from?

Bezos really takes "No giving back" to the next level
The problem with old Boris' James Bond analogy is that Bond sets out at the start of all his movies to save the day. He doesn't wait around for the doomsday clock to read 11:59 and THEN decide to do something.
The problem is that the Tory party is basically SPECTRE.
Bond also doesn't care about the impact of his actions on the villain's profit margins.
True. Still not as bad as Drumpf (at least, not on paper), who'd call climate change "fake news" and a "hoax", and probably suggest that oil spills are *good* for the environment - nevermind the whole nonsense on "clean" coal, what bullshittery.
You mean "and then decide to have a meeting about maybe looking into the possibility of finding a way to do next to nothing."
I'm surprised you didn't make more out of the elevator thing - it's a set up that works on multiple levels.
🤣
Yeah shame it could have given the monologue the lift it needed.
Maybe they thought the idea was too floored.
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤣🤣🤣
This is all quite moving.
That James Bond analogy doesn't quite work if Bond spent the previous 25 years watching the enemy build the doomsday device and doing nothing but play Parcheesi and give helpful suggestions.
It was shuffleboard. He was playing shuffleboard!
Is that not what James Bond does? I’ve never actually watch a movie but I just assumed he looked handsome for 80 minutes then spent the rest of the movie scrambling to save the world
For the past 25 years he's actually been helping to payroll the villain! And still is now! And still getting his own friends to build more bombs...
You have described Boris in a nutshell, just change the nuclear device by brexit.
All while accepting generous bribes from the enemy.
Every time Boris Johnson begins one of his torturous monologues that takes a lifetime to meander to the point, I feel my body and soul cringe
And now you know what it feels like to be British
He really is like a muppet...on drugs.
Anytime a conservative says anything a little piece of my soul dies... they are just so retrograde
Getting Boris Johnson to the point is like trying to get a kid to say TRICK OR TREAT!
Yes, old Boris pontificating up there reminded me of Bruce Willis in Fifth Element asking "Mr. President, any idea when you're going to get to the point?"
World Leaders: "We DESPERATELY need to solve climate change! It's midnight on the doosmsday clock!!!"
Also World Leaders: * Hm, which polluting industry can I subsidize today? And how can I not expand public transport? *
*Smiles sadly at you from the LEAST corrupt region on Earth, northern Europe.*
Hang in there. Some day, you will also ...
Some day ...
"The 26th year they cop out of doing anything about climate change" It's funny and it hurt.
If these "leaders" are serious about discussing ways on how to reverse climate change, they should do these meetings in places that are most affected by extreme weather events. Have them do their summits in Bangladesh, Mozambique, The Philippines, The Marshall Islands, and Madagascar. Let them swelter in +36C heat. Make them wade through chest-deep floods. Have them endure +160 kph typhoon or cyclone winds.
Having them meet in effin' _Glasgow_ is a joke. None of them has *ever* seen CC-related devastation first-hand. Let them experience it, see how serious this issue is.
@@alcor7104 recently glacier national park had to take down signs posted that by the year 2020 all of the glaciers would be gone, the glaciers are still there , since the 1970s I have lived through an ice age , acid rain, a hole in the ozone ( nobody still has taken credit for patching that but it went away as did the acid rain) NY. Is supposed to be under water as is the Maldives, you can still get a nice bungalow there, above water on the same beach the" experts " told us would be gone by now.
At one point they told us that Britain would be frozen like Siberia, they said that by the 1980s all of the oceans would be lifeless . Al gore told us the polar caps would be gone like 15 years ago, they're getting bigger however Barrack Obama said that the single biggest threat to mankind was climate change so he bought a multi million dollar home right on the ocean that's supposed to be already under water.
Now before you think I'm a climate change denier I will point out something. During this " pandemic " they tried to force us , you know all of these " leaders" at this meeting to keep a face diaper on all the time to " save our lives " , as of two months ago we had 1.6 billion masks weighing 5,400 metric tons and taking 450 years to biodegrade floating in our oceans but not one of them gave a damn about that . The Chinese. Russians and the Indian government told them all to stick it and they are three of the biggest polluters around , do you actually think these weak kneed narcissists can make 3 nations that big change ? Remember, I'm not your enemy but they are , I'm just giving you something to think about and as a side note the hottest recorded temperature ever was on July 10th 1913 , Greenland Ranch, Death Valley , more than 100 years ago . Enjoy your life , stop worrying abou the earth it can and will take care of itself

To quote Greta "how dare you?" how many effing meetings does it take until they actually do something?
Exactly! She is brave, and she tells the truth! And, they try to weaponise her sex and her youth against her because they have no excuse for their sociopathy!
They won't ever do anything because they can't actually DO anything. The world "leaders" are just puppets. The rich decide, and the rich decided that they don't give a shit about anyone but themselves or anything but money.

@@soniclore Manchin and Sinema,…NEITHER are Democrats. They’re indulging in country-crippling obstruction for their own self dealings.

He has MI6 write them.

*Do you want the 🍊🤡 back (**#Trump2024**)?*
*Then just ignore my comment.*
*Or you wanna destroy the GQP* once & for all?
*Then here's a detailed guidance* on how to do that:
*If you wanna win elections, you need Progressives, who offer popular policies, like:*
- the legalization of Cannabis
- a wealth tax
- Medicare for all
- a raise of the minimum wage to $15 per hour
- a green new deal
- tuition free colleges/canceling all student loan debts & medical debts
*The Democrats tend to win elections, if there's huge voter turnout. Obama was very popular,* especially among young voters *and got (re)elected, bc he ran as a progressive and he promised us fundamental change, while H. Clinton, Al Gore and J. Kerry lost bc. noone was excited about them bc. they stood for nothing!*
And Biden only won because Trump was fucking abysmal. The DNC could've nominated an heap of dog shit and said dog shit would've won against Trump. But still, only 43.000 people in 3 states made a difference!
Of course, Obama unfortunately turned out to be the biggest fraud in history (bc he was a corrupt, neoliberal do-nothing DINO, who gave us no change whatsover, and therefore, paved the way for an even bigger fraud in 2016 (the orange menace)).
*The Democrats gotta give voters an incentive to vote for them and a* _"I know we suck, but you still need to vote for us, bc our opponents are worse than us."_ (which is basically the case that DINO's like Biden, Clinton make for themselves, each time there's an election) and an _"orange man bad"_ *doesn't do it!*
100 mill. Americans didn't vote in 2016! Those people were fed up with being forced again to choose between the lesser of two evils! So they stood home and we got Trump!
If someone had been on the Ballot that isn't a full-blown sociopath that couldn't care less about you (Trump, Clinton), my entire family and all my friends would've been there to vote for him/her!
One reason, why *Trump, Obama and* progressives like *Bernie are/were that appealing,* is, *because they oppose(d) the establishment.* And many people despise the establishment. *Of course Trump, just like Obama, were a giant frauds, for Trump & Obama ARE THE ESTABLISHMENT! And both governed just like their respective predecessors (Bush Jr. & B. Clinton)!*
But unlike Obama and Trump, *Progressives* (like Bernie Sanders, AOC, Ilhan Omar, Charles Booker, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley, Shahid Buttar, Ro Khanna, Nina Turner, Jamaal Bowman, Cori Bush, etc.) *aren't frauds! They are THE ONLY PEOPLE who actually care for you and who are actually fighting for you, whereas all the corrupt, neoliberal do-nothing Republikkkans* (Trump, #MoscowMitch, Graham, #CancunCruz, etc.) *and the corrupt, neoliberal do-nothing DINO's* (the Clintons, Obama, Biden, Pelosi, Klobuchar, Mayor #WallstreetPete, #CopmalaHarris, Manchin, etc.) *are EXCLUSIVELY fighting for the wealthy that **-bribed-** "donated" to them!*
If Bernie had been on the Ballot in 2016, instead of the corrupt, neoliberal, sociopathic do-nothing DINO, (again) 100 mill. Americans wouldn't've stayed home (including all my family members). And my friends & I wouldn't have wasted our votes for the green party candidate.
*If Bernie was POTUS right now, the GQP would be dead, bc Bernie would've canceled all student loan debts* (& maybe even medical debts) *that millions of Americans* (including me, my family & friends) *are drowning in!*
Bernie would've ended the endless wars once and for all; legalized cannabis nationwide, etc.
And as a result, *Bernie would be the most popular president in decades!*
*In the midterms in 2022,* there would be a bloodbath, where *the Republikkkans would be slaughtered, bc millions of people, who* (just like us) *turned their backs on politics,* would've regained confidence in politics and *would show up to vote for the Democrats!*
*And the GQP would face its exinction once and for all! A Party that is that corrupt, racist, homophobic, misogynistic & xenophobic like the modern Republikkkan Party solely exists bc their only opposition Party (the Democratic Party) is just as corrupt and useless!*
*See? Politics isn't rocket science! If you serve the people who elected you & improve their lives, they'll love you and reelect you!*
Trump was the result of decades of neglect of the American people, for our major parties stopped serving the American people decades ago and EXCLUSIVELY does/did the bidding of the wealthy!
*Under Progressives the Democratic Party would finally become a useful Party again, that actually fights for the American people* (i. e. it'd be the end of neglect of the American people)!
*A President Sanders would also be able to use the 🥕 & stick approach* against obstructing Republikkkans!
Bernie could offer Republikkkan scumbags like Sinema, Manchin special projects for their respective states, and if they'd still obstruct Bernie's agenda (which happens to be the American People's Agenda), he'd use the stick.
Bernie would have an approval rating of 80-90, whereas the approval rating of Republikkkan scumbags like Manchin/Sinema is in their low 30s, which means he could destroy them when they're up for reelection by supporting someone to their left!
*This is how you play politics! And* this is *how the social Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt passed his agenda! He was that popular that he won 4 elections (in one election FDR won 46 of 48 states)!*
*The Republikkkans literally had to come up with term limits in order to prevent the Democrats from permanently winning elections!*
*But the DINO Joe Biden can't pressure his fellow Republikkkans because he's not popular (after all, he's a do-nothing DINO) & he won't pressure his fellow Republikkkans because he agrees with them!*
*Therefore, if you wanna defeat Republikkkan scumbags (Trump, McConnell, Graham, Cruz, etc.), stop voting for Republikkkans/DINO's (Obama, Biden, Pelosi, the Clintons, Klobuchar, Mayor **#WallstreetPete**, **#CopmalaHarris**, etc.) in the first place!*
Besides, *The Republikkkans/DINO's are NOT your friends! They DON'T serve you! They DON'T care for you! They DON'T represent you! They all favor their **-bribes-** "donations" over your lives! And only their wealthy donors matter to them, NOT you!*
*While preventing the 🍊 menace from getting (re)elected might have been your top priority, the DINO's* couldn'tve cared less about Trump! No, their *top priority was to stop Bernie Sanders, bc a decent, non-corrupt man is obviously much more dangerous than a fucking fascist!*
And while the DINO's did nothing to prevent their fellow Republikkkans from appointing another Supreme Court Judge last year or to stop Trump, they moved heaven & earth to defeat Bernie (they rigged two primaries against his favor)!
And couple weeks ago, there's been an election in Ohio, where another progressive (Nina Turner) ran against another do-nothing DINO (Shontel Brown)! The DINO's (including Hillary Clinton) worked with their fellow Republikkkans (including Fox 'News') to stop N. Turner!
Again, *defeating Progressives* (NOT their fascist fellow Republikkkans) *is the DINO's top priority!*
Progressives are currently fighting for paid sick leave & paid parental leave (that are standard in every other developed country), lowering prices for prescription drugs, medicare benefits for hearing, vision & dental, etc.!
We have none of these things, bc. all Republikkkans are corrupt & bc. the Democratic Party has been taken over by Republikkkans, like Obama (who passed the Republikkkan healthcare plan -Obamacare- Romneycare), the Clintons, Nancy Pelosi & Joe Biden who both literally said: _"we need a strong Republikkkan Party"_ !
Thus, *the DINO's are just as much your enemy as are their fellow Republikkkans! The DINO's agenda is* in accordance with their fellow Republikkkan's agenda, to wit *fuck over (non wealthy) Americans, prevent progress & to preserve the status quo!*
*Only progressives will make the Democratic Party a useful Party again.*
But *the current Democratic Party proves their uselessness every day* all over again.
*Despite having the complete control over the government, they get nothing whatsoever done, bc. corrupt, neoliberal do-nothing Republikkkans/DINO's* (like the Obamas, Bidens, Pelosis, Mayor#WallstreetPete's, Manchins, Sinemas, etc.) *are in charge of the Democratic Party. And the wealthy that **-bribed-** "donated" to said DINO's, don't allow the DINO's to pass any meaningful legislation that would help the American people!*
*Progressives are the only people that acutally get things done & improve people's lives & therefore, guarantee huge voter turnout* (bc. they aren't beholden to wealthy donors)!
My friends, family members & I donated hundreds of dollars/volunteered hundreds of hours for Bernie, Charles Booker, etc. *My cousin waited nearly 9 hours so he could vote for Bernie & Charles Booker, during a fucking pandemic, that might kill him* and his mother (he's an asthmatic and she's currently fighting breast cancer). *For Bernie and/or Charles Booker, he/we would've waited 9 days if necessary. For DINO's like Biden, Manchin, Clinton, etc., he/we wouldn't wait 9 minutes.*
*DINO's like the Clintons, Bidens, Obamas, Pelosis, etc. have been in politics for decades and they did FUCKING NOTHING for us... They represent the very Status Quo that enabled the Trump presidency in the first place!*
*So do the right thing, and join us on the left and help us to replace all the DINO's with progressives.* Because, *Unless we create an economy that works for all Americans and not just a few, the orange menace will be back in 2024.*
*Or do you want a rerun of the kakistocracy that was the Trump presidency? In that case keep voting for DINO's like the "very electable" Hillary Clinton, the "very electable" Al Gore and the "very electable" John Kerry,* who stood for nothing, other than corruption, Neoliberalism and "Orange man bad", *and your wish shall be granted.*

@@lealta1481 this is sadly true also, if they had a trump republican in manchins spot the Senate would be Republican and they would not get a chance to get absolutely anything done, they would just block everything like they did to Obama. With Manchin there is at least a ability to negotiate.

I'm not usually a fan of Boris, but it's nice to see a fellow Johnson taking the Climate Crisis seriously... he is right about it being one minute to midnight.
If wishes were horses we'd all be knee deep in shit.
I think we already are.
Like we aren't already....
Lol
@ Blame political parties and dumb voters who conspire to offer only the "safest" candidates who are a "sure win" rather than let us actually pick people with the positions and energy we need to improve things.
We are.
I love Stephen’s Biden impression! Gets me every time!
Johnson is quite an appropriate name for Boris.
I got u.
I asked the kids that came to my house to tell me a joke, dance, or sing. Most did all three willingly and I got a few good jokes from the kids. I love Halloween. 💜💀👻
You made them do tricks! Liking this twist
If any come dressed as a pirate, ask them “ where are your buccaneers?!” ….to which he will respond “under my buccan hat, lady!”
All these Leaders have a lot of power in their respective countries so use that power to act on Climate change instead of Giving Lip service
They don’t give a rats ass about climate change. They just care about getting re-elected.
Our second litter of grand kids said "Happy Halloween!" Good enough =]
Why not? It's not like a prayer or anything...
I feel sure the Pope was on the phone concerning his car warranty. 🤣
Nope…the paying of his student loan!
I'm sorry you threw your back out! Hope it gets better soon! Physical Therapy and chiropractic heat-adjustments will help more than just about anything else. (Been there, done that, myself!)
tbh any picture of Jeff Bezos is spooky.
I bet the elevator floors were in Roman Numerals, and the "game" was guessing
Jeff has turned from worse to the worst. As for billionaires.... I wouldn't shed a tear over their graves.
I'd shed something, but it would be yellow and not from my face.
What, because he wouldn't give kiddies candy? 🙄 Not because Amazon is a horrible company that steals employee tips, or that dick shaped rocket?
It is one more unlikeable tging to add to his account. But yes, the terrible things he does with his company are despicable and deserves reprecautions on its own...
*"Squid Game season ticket holder,"* though. 😁
A place to empty those bottles
Notice that Bezos's helicopter 3:44 is run by a minimum-wage guy running on a treadmill under the helicopter blades. Life expectancy of runner is about 2 trips.
The sum of all fears is at his golf course in Florida.
Getting ready for 2024
Gates B'day Party - confab on " How in the hell do we not pay taxes ?"
Gates Party Planner : "So what do we do now Epstein Island isn't an option?"
They know exactly how. They made sure to build the system that way.
It's like the only legal day you can go around and thread and all of your neighbors trick-or-treat.
Boris Johnson speaks in a tone I imagine the Declaration of Independence being wrote
Nah, it is that tone, *why* the Declaration of Independence was written.
@@karlkarlos3545 is this The National Treasure?
as a UK resident, I loath trick or treat, its a US traction (damn you ET for introducing it to UK kids). But considering how many halloween costumes, accessories, etc, are ordered via Amazon, jeeeees, Besos is an arse!
That Boris Johnson speech came across like a Rowan Atkinson stage bit.
When Steve takes his glasses off and looks into camera 1... Pure electricity.
We didn't get a single trick or treater on Halloween This year.
Not that it's a total loss. All those kinder chocolate bars all for myself now😋
Kids in the UK are disappointed when they get candy, they usually expect money.
Are they just kinder, or maybe both kinder and gentler?
@@ericminch A thousand points of light!
What were we talking about?
I gotta be honest, I kinda liked the Boris Johnson James Bond speech.
Me too. And to all the people criticizing it for being inaccurate at points, analogies always break down if you push them too far. He's basically telling the other world leaders there that they can be as cool as James Bond if they just help save the planet instead of padding their bank account.
They need to update that linkedin add to include "must not engage in or protect others who have committed pedophilia."
Wait if bezos was on his own yacht…
Did he party with bill gates, or just alongside him??
Knowing Bezos, he would be partying on a bigger yacht with more people, right beside bill's yacht, just to make bill gates feel inferior. He does that kind of stuff.
Jeffrey might be in need of a french shave ....
Gates pulled his yacht up alongside bezos his yacht and then got in his helicopter on the yacht and flew over to the helipad, I should say the spare helipad, on bezos's yacht. Then they hung out and kicked it.
Yeah, they threw candy bars at each other.
I love the Prime Minister. I laugh Everytime I watch his deliveries. A right, jolly good show😀
My man! You've aced this monologue
I'm pretty sure 2 million dollars would set me up for life.
Bezos spends that in a WEEK for a RENTAL YACHT.
If you live in the USA then 2 million dollars are like a knee injury operation
It's called hard work!!! 😂😂
then why don't you start your own trillion dollar company
He doesn't rent
@@charan775 probably because not everyone is willing to oppress people!
Wish ... and throw money away.
Love that "holy cable provider"
That Boris Johnson joke at the end felt incomplete. 😒😅😅
For the complete joke, See Boris Johnson.

When I opened the door the kids started walking inside.
Did I miss the new rules ?
1966 - We need to act now, 1983 - We need to act now, 1999 - We need to act now, 2007 - We need to act now, 2021 - We need to act now......
2015 - We all need to act now.
You might say they are acting, only in their own best interests, not the global or humanity's interests.
From Glasgow to Abedin - a truly Scottish flavour to this show.
They should have made it so only people who will still be alive in 50 years are able to make these decisions. I want my baby to be able to breathe clean air and stay outside for a long period of time without getting skin cancer.
Seriously. Maybe there should be a cut off age for authorities who are responsible for everyone's future.
I just had my third and I'm terrified of their future 😔
Congratulations! America is trending downwards in carbon emissions and greenhouse gases.
Maybe people ought to take their complaints to countries that are increasing their pollution like China and India and Russia. Try that and see how much good you accomplish.
@@soniclore It's good that America's emissions are going down, but it's still a global problem that won't be solved till everyone who has an *actual* say gets on board with saving the world. At the rate it's been going so far, humanity will be added to the long list of species wiped out directly from human interference.
The "Treats or tricks" part: funny, because that's what happened to me here in France: The Kids simply stood there not saying anything, not even dressed up, just waiting for candy, with a smile to a "Bonsoir"...Cute, but for the first time since we've been forced-stuffed this American custom, that is 20 years or so now, nobody shouted the equivalent of "Treats or tricks" in French.
That said, the candy thing is the only one I like about Halloween, so that's OK with me :)
So you approve or disapprove of the kids not saying trick or treat? (French equivalent)
Same here in Switzerland. The kids just said hi and held up their treat bags. A few years back, while living in China, hordes of children showed up but seemed to have studied up on protocol for trick or treating except for the costume bit.
The custom of kids going house to house on Halloween originated in Ireland .. when I was a kid, the custom was to sing songs, recite rhymes and the like (not pretend-blackmail the homeowners).
@@fergalhughes165 Exactly. Trick FOR treat, not trick OR treat.
@@fergalhughes165 much the same for me in Wales back in the 70s. Except we were given a few coins for wishing people a Happy Halloween. Of course in Celtic countries, Samhain/Noson Calan Gaeaf is a more important day culturally than the whole trick or treat thing (though the practices of NCG had died out in my area before I was born, we did learn about them with a great primary school teacher who knew all the local ghost stories and ancient celebrations. He was epic!). Trick or treat had crept into England where I am now by the time my kids were old enough to realise we lived too far from enough houses to actually go do it (on the edge of a farm!)😂
Boris Johnson talking about James Bond threw me right back into Metal Gear Solid 3, with Major Zero raving about the 007 movies to Snake.
This year, I absolutely had to prompt kids to say trick or treat! Those kids are so nice this year!
Johnson switched from a James Bond to a Watchman reference effortlessly; no sorry, the other thing… Cluelessly
The doomsday clock analogy is a cold war reference to how close we were to war, and thus mutually ensured destruction.
And yes, that's why it's used in the comic Watchmen.
Lol, symbols of symbols. The zeitgeist is schizophrenic.
@@Theladrion well yes, but I should add that the clock is a real thing, and has been 100 seconds to midnight since last year-closer than it ever was during the cold war
Not shocked about Bezos. I do believe that he would be a spectator on The Squid 🦑 Games. 🔼 ⏹ ⏺💵💸💸
😆
If not a major organiser.
Main investor in the game is more like it
What is that?
Wow nice original joke 🤡
I noticed that too… no one said trick-or-treat
Weird how there were no trick-or-treaters on the streets, but the parking lot trick or treat thing at the local church close to where I work was JUMPIN'.
Oohh my goodness that was great!! 😆 Stephen is Soo funny on impression of President Biden!! That was hilarious!! Thank you for sharing 😊🤘✌️
The hay joke has me ROLLING
I split my gut laughing!!😂😂
Also my birthday. Love you guys all of your team are amazing. It's a gift to have you all. 🙏🙏😎
Poor poor Britain...
God I needed a good laugh after the day I've had great monologue 🤣
Stephen should interview me!
"LET'S GO UTOPIAN!!"😃 ✌
My daughter is 3 1/2 and since last year there was nobody at the doors and everything was just set out there was no need to say trick-or-treat and therefore it was a new thing for you to have to learn this year
I sure wish we did not waste the past 30 years doing the exact same thing were going now to affect climate change... wishing into a large well crafted toilet
Can’t Bezos get that eye 👁fixed ?
Much appreciated 🙇♂️🌏🙏🙌👍
Colbert describing Boris Johnson as a muppet is bang on
snacks are better when you share? that particular muppet definitely did not learn that lesson
Wow his writers were on point tonight
Meanwhile also needs it's own video uploaded every night. Make this happen please!
Mars_Air, They already do, hon. Usually it says “Meanwhile” on the thumbnail. ☺️ I’m sure you’ll find them.
The muppet learning that snack are better when you share....💀💀💀💀💀💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Stephen is soooo correct about kids not even knowing what "Trick or Treat" is anymore. I worked for a theme park and remember doing Trick or Treat events several years ago. Kids would come up and be like "Ummmm..." and just hold out a bag. My assumption was they might be visiting from other countries. The kids that said Trick or Treat I would joke and say Trick! They would look confused and have no idea what to do. Some of them being 8-10 years old too. Course I confused people that came around this year by telling them "Happy Samhain". I think like 2 asked what that even ment.
Next years Halloween costume.
Dress as an Amazon employee piss in a bottle and leave it at his door. Dont wash your hands and give him the candy you ordered from Amazon that was shipped to you by an Amazon employee who pissed in a bottle and didn't wash their hands.
Yuck!
