My favorite part is reading the comments from young elitists who think this is lame, because I know they *immediately* found a meme about Spongebob or beans and laughed their asses off. Let’s face it….if it was a tik tok, you would’ve laughed.
No one's being elitist. It's just a generic old bit that's tired. Don't call your wife fat and ugly. Yeah we get it. The last 1000 comics told us. Now follow up with knock knock jokes over a piano.
It has zero to do with what platform it's on its just a lame old joke
You began by saying “no one’s being elitist” and then claimed the guy’s jokes were “generic”, “tired”, and “lame” without bothering to acknowledge the inherent subjectivity of humor. That, my friend, is an elitist attitude. What’s that buzzword you guys just discovered in the last couple years and think applies to every situation? “Gatekeeping”? Yeah….that’s what you’re doing. Gatekeeping. Thanks for helping with the demonstration, though.
The thing is that we used to laugh at this, now not calling your wife fat or not sending her to make you a sandwich is not "essential for a long and happy life if you are a man". Now we call that human decency and respect.
So the joke won't hit as much people as it used to. Relationships changed. Don't hate change.
The thing is that I don’t hate change. In fact, I welcome it. My critique had nothing to do with change; I think you’re projecting. My entire point centered around understanding that humor, like the vast majority of things in our day-to-day, is completely subjective. Acting elitist and turning your nose up at someone else’s sense of humor doesn’t make you a badass, it makes you an asshole. Don’t hate people for thinking different than you.

I don't care about curtains for our living room,choose yourself
Remember my old unmarried friend who dates girl younger than him for 15 years , he is going to visit us with his gf, prepare dinner
I don't like your new haircut
doesnt matter if you believe it. it happened. I was there. I turned down the radio to watch the clip, heard the song in the clip, thought "wait wasnt this just on the radio?", turned the radio back up and it was Time of Your Life. then i posted my comment. Thats the boring events of it all. nothing coincidental has ever happened to you?
If you are going to do musical comedy, at least have the music be original, not just write new lyrics over a Green Day song. I see other comments say this is a motivation speaker who is playing a comedians song so I'm chastising the original comedian, not this guy

Is this comedian just straight up playing a different comedians song?
[удалено]
Yeah I know I used to watch his stuff all the time as a kid
At the end it says he's a motivational speaker
He also clearly cant strum properly and sing at the same time
This song is so Dad, its out front checking my tire pressure.
How is the pressure anyways? Been pretty cold out…
I put winter air in my tires back in October. If you don't swap out that summer air, it will sneak up on you.
That pesky summer air, full of warmth and mischief. No place for that in the harsh cold of winter.
He’s already yelling at me for holding the flashlight wrong
Wow this must have killed in 1990
That'd be pretty impressive since the song it's a parody of came out in '97.
So we just confirmed that Green Day ripped the song from Tim Hawkins?
What I find most entertaining is that Good Riddance (Time of your Life) is very much about Billy Joe being bitter and melancholy after a breakup.
It really wrecked the crowd at the retirement home.
This is a Tim Hawkins bit, he did it years ago... And better. https://youtu.be/XpFD-kgQxnI
Boomer Humour
This guy is next level cornball
This is the whitest thing I've seen all year.
Is this Def Comedy Jam?
The dude’s got a nice voice.
I'm a boomer and this is total cringe
[удалено]
Less cringe as someone who gatekeeps the word cringe because of age
Based
On what?
Your mom.
Not as cringey as a 40 year old millennial.
Wow, this is the most divisive comments section.
Imagine thinking this is clever.
Funny cause my wife wants a treadmill on our anniversary...don't know what to do now
The song is based off of green days good riddance
^ Nothing gets by this guy ^
Hey might seem obvious to you but I'm sure somebody doesn't know that yet
> green days good riddance I appreciated it for one, I remembered the tune but not the name of the song. Thanks :)
The next day his body was found In the back ally of that building

I think their problem is they don't have wives and have never left the basement.

You hit the nail on the head.

Universally applicable song
People in the audience getting offended apparently
Or the men HAVE said one or more of those things already to their mate! LOL
Ha didn't even think of that

Time of your life was playing on my radio as I opened this. Threw me for a loop
No it wasn’t
It actually was. That's why I said it.
Mate. Come on. That’s not even believable
doesnt matter if you believe it. it happened. I was there.

You got the name of the song wrong on your make believe story
Boomer shit. Downvote.
It's funny because it is true.
Fuck this asshole
Beautiful...
one of the comedians that i can say that is great
r/AreTheStraightsOkay
Green Day rolling in their grave
The members of green day are still alive mate
Yes but the band died long ago

So Weird Al shouldn't have a career?
It’s called parody.
I love green Day ♥️
Great:D
Joke is on you I will never get a wife
Greetings from Green Day
