He's not making fun of Africa.. he's making fun of religion!
And those virtue-signalling charities.
Precisely..!! Just what I was going to write, but you beat me to it...👍😃
Dont stop the tea, just wean yourself off the sugar. You'll actually taste the tea. Love your channel. Happy New Year all
I was just about to suggest the same
I used to take 2 sugars in tea, but now I’m just tea,milk, no sugar. Much better.
@@fayesouthall6604 I was the same until the dentist recommend I avoid as much sugar from drinks as possible and it was a great decision personally
I can go without sugar in tea and coffee but if its there I have three sugars but I don't drink that much tea or coffee, just six litres of cider a day.
What I was going to say too.
drink all the tea you want, without sugar
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the term ‘Mong’ is a contraction of the word Mongol, an old fashioned term for people who we now refer as people with Downs syndrome.
On the subject of tea, try weaning yourself off drinking tea with sugar in it.
I weaned myself off sugar in tea about 40 years ago, it’s such a nice drink without sweetening.
If someone inadvertently gives me a cup with sugar in it, I can’t drink it.
Dry drinking tea for about two weeks without sweetening, I can almost guarantee if you try it with sugar at the end of two weeks, you won’t want sugar in it.
It is a diminutive of 'mongol', although it was always meant or said to someone who had done something particularly stupid - wasn't specifically a term for Downs Syndrome sufferers - just the more regular kind of spastics.
Mongols are from Mongolia, It's from Mongrel.
@@ryanlynch248 no, it's shortened from "mongoloid" which used to be used to describe indigenous Mongolian people and was later adopted as a slur for describing people with downs syndrome.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongoloid#%3A%7E%3Atext%3DAs_a_term_for_Down_syndrome%2C-Main_article%3A_Mongolian%26text%3DThe_term_was_motivated_by%2Cmedical_usage_until_the_1950s.?wprov=sfla1 cl
Completely forgot about that word! Thanks.
Mongoloid is a old term used by the medical profession in the 1950's to describe people with Downes syndrome. In street use, it was contracted to 'Mong' and used for the same purpose, but also as a pejorative for anyone who spoke or behaved in a manner deemed to be silly or uncoordinated. In later years, the medical reference fell into disuse, but the schoolboy pejorative remained for many years after.
the tea is not the problem, its the sugar. if you stop the sugar ,you will enjoy tea more , and drink more .
Tea and sugar is not the reason for fat, animal and plant fats are, you are having far more of those everyday than sugar in tea.
@@MrTrevisco Retired nurse here , Sugar is actually far worse for you than fats , Olive oil is actually good for you, Thats based in my degree in nutrition and helping people for 3 decades to lose weight and keep it off , Carbs are the enemy not natural fats which actually helps to suppress hunger pangs, It's universally agreed with nutritional specialists that a Mediteranean based diet low in sugar , high in Omega 3 oils is by far the most healthy diet
@@tillyt4054 only too much sugar, the only really bad stuff is in what the sugar is added too so it entices people to eat.
@tillyt4054 I love the 'retired nurse here' opening, like that grants any authority whatsoever lol.
I stopped taking sugar in tea forty years ago and don’t miss it.
"Mong" was a big insult we used on each other when i was a kid in the 80's/90's. Mong was short for Mongoloid which was a name for someone with Downs Syndrome although was often used in the same way as Spastic or "Spacker" (general disabled person) as you might remember from Inbetweeners - in fact i think they did used Mong on that program. The 80's was a very different time
Joey
He didn’t make fun of Africa in this clip. He made fun of the term ‘act of hod’ and arguably of people’s inconsistency when it comes to their faith.
Spot on 👍
Also, Ricky does not make fun of Africa when he says ‘we owned it’ he is making fun of the people who think like that.
Same as with a lot of Ricky's comedy. At the moment, he is the darling of right wingers because they think he is making fun of woke or immigrants etc, when in actuality, he is making fun of the right wing mindset. The reason they like him is because they think he is somehow on their "side", and that he is "punching down" on their behalf. Ricky himself is a left winger who voted for Labour, but irony seems to be lost on both sides of politics these days lol@@QueenscityCLT
About the africa thing, Ricky pointing out why do people follow a faith or a God when there God is to blame or take the praise of things there God does,they praise there almighty when good things happen then they make excuses for the God when bad things happen like the kids with aids. Why? Why follow a faith/God when they do everything even the bad stuff, the faithful always say when bad stuff happens, God did it for a reason making out it was done for the good, try asking those on the end of God's bad doings if they think it's OK and done for the good. This is what Ricky's trying to get at to explain what's the point of a god/faith
What if he did? So what! Africa is up for humour and criticism as is any other continent! Idi Amin, Mugabe, Gadaffi - all great figures fir ridicule!
No no no! You dont drop the tea!!!!..... You drop the food! (Its the tea that'll keep ya going)
"Life's too short".
Another Ricky/steven and Warwick Davis show.
Really good.
Life's Too Short is Inbetweeners level funny. Absolutely packed with huge laughs. Riddled with them.
So sorry to hear that you are down to 1 cup of tea a day.
Very tough and sad times.
My thoughts are with you and family.
That wasn't an Africa joke, it was a god joke... lol
The Monopoly Man never had a monocle lol
Tea is great for you. Even better without sugar!
I’m from Yorkshire 👍Top Tip from a Yorkshire man…..cut down on the sugar,its not the tea.❤
Don't cut down on the tea, just remove the sugar. Once you get used to tea without sugar you'll never do it again.
I just watched his tv shows Derek and Afterlife, in every episode you’re guaranteed to cry then laugh.
I've been living about 200 yards away from the Yorkshire tea factory ,in Starbeck, Harrogate,for the last two weeks. Back in France now , but miss the place already.
The talking about volcanos reminded me of Yellowstone then I noticed your t shirt aha mad coincidence 😂
11 o'clock show was the first time I remember seeing Ricky Gervais
And also Ali G
Was that his talk show?
@misterprecocious2491 11 o'clock show was hosted by Ian Lee and daisy Donovan with other comedians doing little bits and Ricky Gervais had a part on that as did Sacha baron cohan playing Ali g these two went on to be the most successful others on the show are forgotten now maybe getting small acting jobs
Certainly not making fun of Africa !
Irony is a great thing. Iceland is a giant volcano and there you are wearing a Yellowstone shirt which is.......a giant volcano.
✌️❤️🇬🇧
For me the best Ricky stand up was when he reads Noah's ark
I agree
Youre not drinking enough tea , 4 cups is just about enough for lunch time .
Time is an an illusion, lunchtime especially so 😅
Get in shape Santa. Thanks for 2023 both. Happy New year love from Wales ❤
Mine was/is tea, too. Unfortunately, it was too many long island iced teas...and too often. You are definitely not alone in your struggle. Keep moving forward in the right direction.
Bill Bur and Billy Connoly are the goats.
No Boomer, I'm from Yorkshire it is not the tea. It's the sugar in your tea. I can drink upwards of 10 cups a day but not with sugar. And, with semi skimmed milk. 😊
I cut out sugar from my tea, and stopped eating cereal in the morning and I lost a stone in no time..Just the sugar..Amazing..
yorkshire tea is amazing
It's from his 2010 stand up special "Science"
You've definitely heard the term 'mong' in Inbetweeners and stuff like that, it's a pretty common insult (or was), it's like calling someone 'ret***ed'.
Tea is nicer without sugar.
Ricky is the best comedian on the planet, he will never be cancelled. Billy Connolly is another great comedian
Ricky not in the same league as Billy though
@@garyb7575 I agree with you totally, but Billy is still second best for me.
@@CeCeuk- you don’t agree totally then.
🙄🙂
Mong is a slang term used to refer to people with Down's Syndrome. It is derived from the word "mongrel Not to be mistaken for the word mongol who is a person from Mongolia.
No, it is a diminutive of 'Mongoloid' which is an old way of describing a Downs Syndrome person.
He's only banging on his belly, 😂😂 happy new year good sir and bless to your new family ❤
You should try pure maple syrup in tea instead of sugar, it helps boost your metabolism for weight loss and contains more antioxidants and minerals
In hot tea? I might have to try that
Honey does the same
Maple syrup is 75% sugar, 25% other stuff. It's not much better than having sugar.
Honey yes…syrup..lol..may as well have 10 sugars..
@@niklfc9384 honey is an appetite suppressant too
I keep coming back for more. Am I a Boomerang?
"Mong" short/slang for Mongoloid which is a dated (therefore of course offensive) term for people of Mongol (Mongolian) or East Asian heritage, seeing as Genghis Khan procreated a hell of a lot around those parts. However the term can also be used in the UK (again subjectively very offensive...) for people affected by Down Syndrome.
I went to watch this in Portsmouth. Think it was around 2010.
You can still enjoy tea without sugar. In fact, once you cut the sugar out, you may not want to go back to it again as it will just taste sickly the second time around.
British Airways paid for my hotel because of the ash cloud 13.5 years ago. Long weekend in New York turned into an extra week in the Dominican republic.
This is from his fourth stand up tour Science (2009-10). His Out Of England shows (1&2) recorded in the US include material from his past shows
You don't need to put sugar in you 2 cups of tea a day.
Have to say your getting a belly mate, princess looks good though Lol
Its not a race to loose the weight mate, slow and steady wins the race!
Just try changing a few little bad habits and see how you get on, otherwise it will be to hard to keep it up and you will end up putting it all back on as its not sustainable.
You got this !! 🎉🎉
cutting out the sugar is the better move i feel
Just stop putting Sugar in it!
I hah an act of hod every day when I was on the building as a teenager.
Had to keep three brickies going.
If I’d known I could get insurance,I’d have been all over it.
I stopped using sugar in tea a very long time ago, it’s hard to get used to, but it’s far better, and you can drink more.
Is it just chub or bloating as well? If you have stomach bloating peppermint tea really helps .... i love Ricky Gervais 😂
Americans do be loving sugar. I find tea tastes best with no sugar and a small amount of milk.
You didn't cut the C word out 😂 can't belive it made it on here!
I honestly forgot to do it! Lol, hope it doesn’t get me in trouble.
happy new year to King, Queen and Princess Boomer
Your extra weight isn't from 5 cups of tea a day, even with sugar. More than a teaspoon of fat in your diet each day, over-loading on calories, and inactivity puts weight on. Inactivity too.
This tour must have been 2010 or a little later because that's when the Iceland ash cloud happened..
Oooh I hate sugar in my tea x
Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant's show 'Life's Too Short' is Inbetweeners and Peep Show level funny. Absolutely packed with huge laughs. Riddled with them.
Really? No one I know liked that, I thought it was awful. (though it was funny in the scenes when Ricky and Steve were in it)
@@SketchyMagpieim with you i couldn’t finish that show. Extras is much funnier and the xfm radio podcasts
Huge laughs...boom boom 😊
@SketchyMagpie nah it was hilarious. Probably cancelled today.
I really love Proper Strong Yorkshire tea and also I drink lots of fresh black coffee but it is not a problem as I have not used sugar or milk in a drink since 1965. This is through choice and I soon found out that I could really taste the tea or coffee flavour rather than have just a sugary hot drink. No doubt Queen Boomer is looking forward to being able to put her arms around you again.
You have heard Mong, as in Briefcase Mong in the Inbetweeners
suki go to the well and fetch the water
Sugary tea isn't going to create a 'wok' of the size like the one under your T-shirt, in less than a year.
P.S Jay said 'mong' in 'The Inbetweeners' quite a few times so you had heard it before, mate.
Only 4/5 cups of tea a day? You bloody amateur. 😁
I have 5 in the morning 😅
Exactly, that is just breakfast.
You'll start to enjoy the taste of the tea when you reduce and eventually remove the sugar. Once you get used to it the flavours really open up.
P.S. Mong used to be a derogative term for someone with Down's Syndrome. It's was one of those insults that was rarely heard out of the school playground. It took me back to the savagery of kids of that age.
kB it sounds like you got a beer belly rather than the sweet tea 😅
Oh Rick with a silent P
I'm as well starting to exercise more and watching my sugar , thing is to just cut down on the sugar levels, thing is its hard to do , like you said one step at a time hitting the cardio at the gym 😂😁
Stewart Lee made the joke about Ricky Gervais : if its the middle of the night in the woods and Ricky Gervais shouts the word mong at a tree 10 times but there are no Americans there to tell him he's a genius did it really happen?
I thought of this, too. XD
@@SketchyMagpie 🙂
I'm surprised you don't remember "mong" from the Inbetweeners
how much sugar are you having in your tea? Bob Mortimer level? It's probably just beer and comfort, worked for me :-)
Ive also done well cutting down my tea drinking, Ive gone from 20+ cups of tea daily to 20+ travel mugs of coffee daily.
pg tea is way way better than any other tea ...HANDS DOWN... and its sugar that brings out the flavour in all tea!!! do the test... have a clear cup.. put water and tea bag in... then pour sugar over the tea bag.. and watch that flavour flood out!!!
Have your tea without sugar, it makes you a superior person.
I have at least 10 mugs of tea a day but only the first of the day has sugar
4 cups a day?? I can have 4 cups in an HOUR sometimes XD 2 sugars!
This clip is off his Science stand up show.
happy new year
The volcano erupted back in like 2013/2014
I drink Decaffeinated Yorkshire with 0 Cal Sweeteners. Al the taste benefits with no of the health drawback
I've NEVER heard of tea making people fat 😂😂 I would suggest it's the sugar and are you adding cream? Don't give up on tea. Us brits survive on at least 10 a day 😂😂
0:06 my new alarm.
Try some honey in your Yorkshire tea 🍵
Mong derives from mongol or mongoloid wich is a derogatory term ( but super funny)
I drink 4-5 big mugs of Yorkshire Gold per day, but it's black without sugar, so negligible calories.
Alcohol and suckers gives you belly fat. Next to cutting back you can use sweatner
Nowt wrong with a nice cuppa tea 🫖
😉👍❤️🥳
As said by others here, this wasn't a joke about Africa. It was a joke about the hypocrisy of religion and the simple people that don't like facts and still believe in it.
You can prove anything you want with facts you just made up.
When I quit sugar in tea and coffee I used a few drops of natural honey instead. Now I just have it with oat milk and find that is sweet enough
torkshire tea without sugar is amazing you will soon get used to it, fm a yorkshireman
Wow! The best thing that ever come out of the UK..???? wash your mouth out.
I’ve put a tea spoon of honey in my tea instead of sugar for the last year and much prefer it.
Tea white 2.. standard brew
Instead of using sugar in your Tea, why not try Sweeteners a Sugar substitute.
fuck me. you could rest a full round of drinks on that shelf.
Or try honey in your tea!
“Mong” is short for Mongrel, an unintentional Nickname for people who have Down’s syndrome, used many years ago. Susan Boyle looks faintly like that, and when she first went on Britains got Talent she behaved weirdly!
Mate, I have 3 sugars in my brews and I have about 20 a day. I'm as skinny as a rake. You have the belly from either eating too much and not getting enough exercise or if you like a tipple booze is the worst. Every pub has plenty of beer bellies there.
5 or 6 a day? I do that in a morning.
Yorkshire tea, The king of brews.
Tastes better without sugar though
His real genius is telling "offensive" (to the uneducated) jokes that shoot in the other direction. The kind of joke that has somebody complain before they really understood what was said.
OMG we're has your belly come from Jesus Christ haha
I lost 4 stone and I still drank 2 teas every day I just changed the sugar to xylitol. And I cut out carbs And sweets.
