I don't think you've seen this unusual "talent"

It's not sexual, just humor that some will find in poor taste ... but funny to others.
It is a creative new take on an age-old problem, acted out by someone with an extraordinary, uhm, talent.

I added a NSFW above.

so british......and I do so wish I hadn't seen it!

but I participate on another forum that is like 99% male and i'm going to post it there.....i'm sure they'll appreciate it!

I think you can generalize that men are more likely to find this funny but it was emailed to me by a woman who is a tenured professor.

I love over the top British humor, Monty Python, Benny Hill etc.
I just refuse to grow up when it comes to humor.
I also LOOOOOOVE potty-mouth Louis CK.

Letme know if the guys like it or if it also goes over like a lead balloon.

Pretty lame (and I'm a guy) - and it obviously has no methane in it.... Otherwise you would have had a fireball instead of blowing out the candles.

OK this guy pumps himself up with air. So what....

In my teenage days I saw people who could blow controlled fireballs (as long as they ate right some hours before) as real gas does in fact contain combustible methane.

Yeah, guys giving themselves nasty burns are on Youtube.

Thanks for the information. I shall not watch the video given all the comments, especially yours, MZ. What does Kenny's acronym stand for? The NSFW? Not Safe For Women?

deb, not safe for work......or at least that was what I always thought it was.

there's nothing obscene about it.....but it is definitely british "potty" type humor. and while not offended by it, certainly not my thing!

so, Kenny, one guy said he and his wife were rolling on the floor......and another was surprised i'd post it!
guess it was too much of a guy thing for a woman to post......sigh.

and while that was not my thing, Kenny, I do love Louis c.k.! we've been watching his show via Netflix.
I can hear you now Kenny: what's up with mz?! she doesn't like british potty humor but she likes the American guy with the really potty mouth?! go figure, right?!

Not at all.
What strikes a person's funny bone is a complex thing.
There is no rhyme or reason, and nobody has to explain or justify what they find funny, or not.

Louis CK's humor is very adult and I could totally understand people being deeply offended by him.
He's just so darned smart and perceptive about people.
He's like George Carlin in that he holds up a mirror to us, but in new ways.
He identifies and says things many of us may think, but would never say.
I've devoured all 3 of his seasons on Netflix, but I think in the latest season he's lost a little bit of his edge and is getting weird.

NSFW, not safe for work.
It's a courteous warning to not open a link at work because you may get in trouble.
Often adult content or something some would consider offensive enough to get an employee disciplined.

Louis ck picks up where carlin left off....but I don't think he's quite as much the thinker on so many issues as carlin. on the other hand, I think he certainly has a finger on modern relationships, self-image, self-worth, dating, single parenthood, etc.
and there is not one word that he won't use......do not watch at work for sure!
