One of the funniest things I have ever heard was when one of our teachers came into the classroom laughing his head off. He had just been reading a leaflet in the staffroom that had been sent to each school ( From the education dept. or whatever ) about suggestions on how to teach teenage kids about ...well, "The facts of life" for want of a better phrase. Thus it began :-"Imagine Mummy has an engine in her tummy and Daddy has a starting handle". Of course we were all in hysterics! Then he said "Honestly, this is for real, this is actually what they have sent us, for teaching FIFTEEN year olds!"
I have scientifically proven that this bit cannot be watched during the night without waking someone up. My test subjects did not find it as funny though.
@@antoinemozart243 Prepared jokes are so much harder to do without laughing, because you'd get selfconscious and it would seem funnier. It would for me at least!
It reminded me of the ninety year old man who said to his wife that maybe they needed to get tested for Aids. When she asked why , he said "Well, we have annual sex!"
Whenever I see any of Ricky's act (or movies or anything), I can't help picture Karl and what his reaction would be. I bet he is watching and going this, "it's alright"
yeah, like in a joke magazine or something. with most things like this in comedy (EG: most comedians BS hypothetical stories) it'd be funny if it was real, but if you are just making shit up to hit a fake punchline, it loses 80% of the hilarity- and i just have a hard time believing its real. I'm sick of comedians lying to me like I'm an idiot. insulting. i can make up funnier stuff, but its fake. i do genuinely enjoy how he laughs at his own jokes though. i honestly find it endearing.
Ricky....loved the pamphlet routine.... I was thinking at the very end when number ten said WHY NOT COME OUT A WINDOW? ... AFTER your comments say then there's 2 guys below the window yelling "NOT THE HAIR!!!!!" just an afterthought ...love your work....love from America's Funny Lady, "J,R,"
Judith Roth Americas funny lady I have to tell you something a bit upsetting... This is not Ricky's channel. If by some bizarre coincidence he is looking through youtube comments on bootleg versions of his own old stand-up material I seriously doubt he would revise his routine and change it based on your shortsighted callback. You explain the state of America. Love ya
I walked past two guys doing number 10 once...didn't know what came over me.
lmao that pun though
2 years old but still gold
What came over you? I'd assume they did.
@@Tammyaway FUCK
that's good
@@Tammyaway Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooosh....
"Why not just throw in an onion?" I have tears running down my cheeks after that one! ROTF!
dont cut onions then
that’s number 6
And how Ricky walked in the phrase. The most hilarious thing about it is You can watch THIS Ricky in a Chef's suit. 🤣
Licking the fingers killed me!
Exclamations
!!!
Wipe them on the duvet or curtains before you lick them. The smell and taste of sh*t is not as bad then.
That was the mic drop moment for me !
He is so good at creating suspense by delaying the joke as he gleefully enjoys it himself
He looks like he's imagining how the goodly burghers in the audience will react to the next line,, and it cracks him up.
I have a pamphlet thatll solve world hunger
1: Why not eat?
Why not eat some gently used Watermelon?
I'm more concerned about losing weight and eating less!
Eat the pamphlet
Oh hello there Marie Antoinette.
You need 10... two rows of 5. It's the symmetry that will sell it.

If this is how they do it in the education dept., no wonder they come up with such wonderful ideas :D.
shakespeare, dickens ... the office
Captain! I need an explanation please...
Gervais created and starred in the original The Office. He was being sarcastic.
The Abyssal Archivist Thanks
I didn't knew about that show. Thanks! :D
Do you like Dickens?
I don' knowe, I've never been to one.
not one of them was "why not wear a condom"
I know right, like wasn't the whole point of the article to prevent heterosexual men from getting HIV, not suggestions on what *FUN* should look like
@@wwf-weirdwrestlingfan I think you have the wrong term for gay men... for the same gender it’s homosexual not heterosexual
@@arch3861
You don’t think, you know
This was directed at men who refuse to wear a condom.
BTW, a ripe, juicy cantaloupe is MUCH more erotic than a watermelon. And easier to cuntrol...
@@thesoundsmith ...how would you know
Funniest man on earth.He doesn’t even have to say a word and I’m laughing .
I have scientifically proven that this bit cannot be watched during the night without waking someone up. My test subjects did not find it as funny though.
I did it.
Dr. Jay I also tried, another failure.
Dr. Jay And it also cannot be watched the night after you had unprotected sex, speaking from experience lol.
Guys, I tried it again 3 years later. Still unsuccessful
Ha I have AirPods in
they've already come out of the closet so why not out the window?
thank you, good sir
Lol nice
Fucking hell... You know what? Sure. You get that one. Anything - 1, Anything Else - 0
*Wicked ;)*
The best. Haha.
I put a lot of effort into that leaflet .... unappreciated.
Upton Robotics Pty Ltd 9 out of ten. The window idea was a hair off though.
lol.... brilliant
Yout leaflet got an entire bit dedicated to it in a Ricky G show so I think it did get the appreciation it deserves
@@youdontneedtoknow6621 I was joking, not my leaflet. Thankyou for being concerned for me though. awwwwwwe.
You didn't work that hard. You never even mentioned the mouth.
I love everything about him, but I especially like his body language. That little shrug of the shoulders is hilarious.
Rick has to be one of the best British comedians ever
The guy at 2:30 is having the time of his life lmao
Whole new meaning to "It's raining men"
Yikes!
Underrated
I just love how he giggles before he reads each one.
Just love him! He is a fantastic performer but also love him for his input against animal cruelty. He has stolen my heart.
I wish he'd gone through the whole leaflet 😂😂😂
Ashmoe418 we can go through it together if you want 😏😏😏😏😏
Perv, lol
@ashmoe418 I'm pretty sure he thinks you're a tgirl
@@neo2419912 not that there's anything wrong with that
I'm pretty sure nothing new would come out of there...
Shakespeare, Dickens, ....the Office (Brilliant!)
i love how hes cracking up at his own stand-up
I was under the impression he was laughing at the list.
I believe the leaflet was true, Ricky mentioned it in one of the old XFM shows back in 2003.
The way he builds the suspenses before each point. One of the best stand up comedian 👏🙌
I love you Ricky you make my day better.
This has got to be one of the funniest pieces of stand up ever, I am crying with laughter
Oh my GOD I need this leaflet!
I swear I was crying of laughter.
Ricky is just a savage, I love it
Bloody Brilliant!
I love how he laughs at his own stand up
It's prepared and part f the show !
@@antoinemozart243 Prepared jokes are so much harder to do without laughing, because you'd get selfconscious and it would seem funnier. It would for me at least!
@@fungling7982 it's part f the preparation.
I think he’s more laughing at how ludicrous the leaflet is.
He’s also notorious for corpsing.
What's not often considered is how good a physical comedian Ricky actually is.👍
This bit was so very funny that my stomach hurts. Ricky is comedy gold. He just shows how absurd people are in their thinking.
Sounded like good common sense to me.
Still hilarious all these years later....
Always on the Bach never on Debussy
Ynse Schaap ??
Familyguy joke, takes to long to explain, look it up on youtube
:-)
Ynse Schaap You have to know music.
Kerensa Birch You do
the funniest part is that he can't help laughing himself, I remember him talking about it on xfm and he could barely get out the words
I'm crying I'm laughing so hard
Odd.. I don't recall the forecast mentioning rain.
O_O XDDDDDDDDDDDDD
There is a possibility of jacking off out of the window tomorrow!
Mohammed Rouzbeh
"Thanks, Mo. And now here's Jim with Sports"
Baron von Quiply Thanks, Baron. I'm Jim Jaluski with the sports watch! Now, here we see the famous man known as Jacko Ff...
You made me think of Fullmetal Alchemist, which I wasn't really expecting.
It's real, I remember him talking about it during the early days of XFM
Series 2, episode 50 to be precise. I'm on another run through them as I type this out. Very funny.
Absolutely Brilliant
I'm crying, It's just too funny. xD
So funny! A comedy Legend!
This cracks me up every time
he is just the best. period
It is simply the greatest sentence ever ,im still laughing.
Probably one of his best!
Someone walking under the window: "That's funny, could've sworn I felt raindrops, but there's not a cloud in the sky..."
BRILLIANT!!!
You are amazing Ricky xx
Glorious
It reminded me of the ninety year old man who said to his wife that maybe they needed to get tested for Aids. When she asked why , he said "Well, we have annual sex!"
Jack Frost do u even english?
Sean Murphy Yes, I English four times a day.
Jack Frost On his back or in his hair?
Annual would be a big step up for...some of us.
@@pisse3000 Way to put a spin on it!
Love him. 🤣
Whenever I see any of Ricky's act (or movies or anything), I can't help picture Karl and what his reaction would be. I bet he is watching and going this, "it's alright"
This made me laugh so hard. Especially number 10 😂😂😂😂
I was dying of laughter! :) LOL
I adore you Ricky
legend!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love the bananas on the back of the card! OMGGGGGG “I don’t trust you! I’m putting on a shower cap!”
I needed a good laughter. T.Y.
This proves many things: 1) The smarter you are, the better your comedy. 2) Why make shit up when REAL LIFE gives you gems like this?
It’s the little extra bits of humour nuggets that make it.
I've tried a couple of these. I have to say, I loved it.
Does anyone have a picture of this leaflet?
***** He's holding it in his hand :/
jim jimjim
I mean an actual image of it. So I can save it, and look at numbers 4-9.
***** Oh I see lol... Try his website, might be on there if you're lucky :) let me know.
jim jimjim No link came through
BaraSkit07 "came through" wink wink
He is the best comedian.
this is the hardest i've laughed in a while ahahah
Great job on a well put together youtube video. You have completed a bang up effort here.
Saw Ricky in Manchester on this tour, this must have been added to later concerts as I don't recall him doing this at the time. V funny man.
This bit is from his second tour Politics from the early 2000s the American shows are kind of a best bits of all his tours
It's really hard watching this at midnight when everyone is sleeping
This is deadset one of the funniest videos on CZcams.
Not the hair 🤣🤣
Hillarious Genius
I’m gonna go watch the office now
"Watermelon."
"Thank you!"
I feel like this pamphlet was probably planted by somebody playing a joke.
yeah, like in a joke magazine or something. with most things like this in comedy (EG: most comedians BS hypothetical stories) it'd be funny if it was real, but if you are just making shit up to hit a fake punchline, it loses 80% of the hilarity- and i just have a hard time believing its real.

i do genuinely enjoy how he laughs at his own jokes though. i honestly find it endearing.
@@janeallgood9833 he mentioned this on xfm in 2003 so I think it is actually real, but agree with what you mean
I need this flyer
Ahahahah!!! Despite the list, he could read a shopping list and be irresistible the same!!!!
Omg hilarious!
Im dying!!lol
So many things deemed too bad for CZcams and are removed but this one has stood the test of time👍
I laughed so fucking hard... Now my neighbors think I'm even more insane.
You r amazing ricky, no 10 is the best :d
I love this guy!
Hilarious!!!
#10 is Epic :D :)
Thats number 17. Number 19 is over there. My belly hurts haha :D
I've got hairs growin on me belly.... hahahahaha hahahahaha
i cried laughing
that watermelon had me rolling
I cracked up just watching him crack up
It is!
that was pretty damn funny!
Why Not! Come Out A Window?
That's because Out of England was his first stand up show in the US so I imagine he picked his favourite bits from his shows
Hahaha I remember Ricky telling this story to Steve and Karl on XFM.
Morning! Hahahahaha
Can someone tell me where I can looking for that Leaflet? Thx!!
he actually made me laugh out loud and had to wipe my eyes !! Damn that was a good one :-D
haven't watched that one yet but it is on my list :-)
***** Yeah, that was pretty spectacular and that's coming from a "Yank" lol
The twist is the leaflet is real AND written by Rick Gervais !

As heard in 9th August 2003 XFM show, around the 21:50 mark.

Sometimes you can do 3 and 10 at the same time.
And I thought it was pigeons!
I used to work with Ricky and that leaflet was real. All of us were passing ourselves laughing at how ludicrous it was.
can you remember what the other things on the leaflet were?
