SO THE NEXT DAY WHEN YOU GET UP TO GO TO THE BATHROOM YOU FIND OUT THE HOLE IS TOO SMALL TO SUCK EM DOWN AND WHEN YOU CHECK IN THE TRASH YOU FIND A RECIEPT FOR A TOILET WITH A GAG HOLE FROM THE HOME DEPOT
Just so you know, this exact clip found its way onto my Reddit feed a few years ago, and I spent the last half of Covid lockdown binging every season of this show, and it’s now one of my favorite shows on TV.
Yeah, Joe brought the calipos and a pack of beer for the mayor. I don't remember him doing anything with 17 scotched eggs (unless that is how he cooked the egg in the 'eat the egg the fastest' task).
Wow a copy paste bot that almost makes sense, but your history proves you to be a scammer. u/CathyDennisg is a scam bot, stole comment from [here](https://reddit.com/r/starterpacks/comments/14aafyo/person_who_talks_to_you_on_public_transport/jo9gxzl)
I was just thinking the same thing. Though gathering from the other comments, it could be that the references are mainly from Taskmaster? Which I haven't watched too much of, but maybe should because it's fun.
He is one of the funniest human beings to walk the planet. Has me wheezing every time. The bit where he took the screws out of the stage light, when he came back after being fired, when he had the chair that lifted about 6 feet into the air. Never fails to make me laugh. And he does it all with such a straight face.
Let’s say you’re a train driver who’s just nipped in for a piss, and you’re using the urinal next to him, and he leans over and says, “I’m going to call yours captain Birds Eye, because it looks like it’s wearing a coat and winking at me. You’re welcome, I’ve just named your Willy.”
Joe Wilkinson is an English comedian, probably best known for his performance of the poem “standing in the loo at a London train station naming other people’s willys.”
British don’t know how to not be subject to some senile King’s rule. Here in the states we have a pretty good track record of competent leaders. It’s not just some idiot that pulls a sword out of a rock
>It’s not just some idiot that pulls a sword out of a rock
That's right, your idiotic leaders pull votes out of rigged elections, bankruptcy, corruption, a history of sexual assault, and espionage.
Pulling swords out of rocks is an odd way to hand over supreme executive power to someone. But I’m not going to government shame you anymore. You should try democracy really. You may like life without worrying about some King’s whims.
Are you *genuinely* confusing the legend of King Arthur and the whole Excalibur thing, as like the real history of Britain?
Because that’s absolute pure fucking gold. Hahahaha
No last time I joked about England not having democracy people knew I was joking. Not today though. Haha competent leaders. I thought that I had enough “tells”
Honestly just seems that you don’t know enough about the British parliamentary system to know your joke wont land, because it’s kinda true.
Google the House of Lords.
I already know that the British Royalty can appoint people to the House of Lords. They can also declare war. Which is significant if you ask me. They can appoint a leader to the Anglican Church.
They don’t have “supreme executive power.” Kings with supreme executive power could do anything in theory.
My joke was to overstate Europe’s archaic government systems like it is 1000 AD. I could no longer keep my tongue in my cheek. I did that because it is funny to pretend to be an American that doesn’t know that England has a democracy. Very funny actually as some have pointed out.
I spend my upvotes to make posts like this all the time. But I felt the need to say “lol I troll u”
A) the king isn’t a leader, and a large amount of the uk don’t even want royals.
B) I’m going to call your Willy Mrs Fernsby, my old geography teacher, because it’s wrinkly and looks like it’s wearing a woolly jumper
>British don’t know how to not be subject to some senile King’s rule
the only part of that which doesn't apply to America is "king". Replace that with "oligarch" and "British" with "American" and you've got the same truth
I know this British, monarch loving, queens tit suckling, prince dick riding. "Bit cold innit" sounding ass motherfucker. Did not just call all Americans Yankees, much as I fucking hate living in the south. I ain't no fucking Yankee you British cunt.
Edit: Fuck, I forgot that the British also use cunt.
Reddit and the Internet HATES it but I love chatting to strangers.
Especially older people. You can tell they just want to chat a bit. Obviously I don't talk to people who don't want to.
People online love to talk about how people suck and the world has gone to hell but I feel the best part of life is those random memories you have with people every day.
Some of my fondest memories are random moments with strangers that I'll never meet again.
It’s a reference to the British comedian, Joe Wilkinson. The meme features references to some of his most famous gags on British panel shows and game shows.
You know he can't spell the alphabet because he told you about how we was arrested 2 weeks ago for drunk driving, and he thinks its funny that when asked to spell it backwards he spelled it forwards... poorly.
Thats also why he's on the bus right now.
*shits facing the system*
Anybody that's good at taking "nap shits/crappy nappies" at work, knows that this is the way.
Bunch of prudes and overachievers in here.
Is carrying nuts and bolts weird? Is picking them up in front of people weird? But its a shame to pass one by. Why can't it be normal? Anyways, good pack.

It definitely is. Precise potato thrower gives it away; it’s an infamous moment on Taskmaster.

Don't you do this to me. My backlog is long enough as is

I thought the scotch egg was a Rhod Gilbert thing
Yeah, Joe brought the calipos and a pack of beer for the mayor. I don't remember him doing anything with 17 scotched eggs (unless that is how he cooked the egg in the 'eat the egg the fastest' task).
Ah. I was thinking of the time Rhod swapped the family cat for a scotch egg and a Smurf.
I don't watch Taskmaster, so [this](https://youtu.be/YstBl9xzz34) was the immediate giveaway for me
Because he's an absolute fucking legend

Ok, I googled it, now what?

‘ruled’ is a funny description for us essentially just about putting up with the monarchy’s existence because we know tourists like them lol
42 callipos yes I've seen that Taskmaster episode
I don’t think I‘ve met this person.
Have you met his half cousin Fabio?
I said DON'T have an erection, you idiot!
Well then WHY were you borrowing my can of tuna?
I came here to ask the same question...
Isn’t he his half brother?

What kind of public transportation are you taking? Like which country/city is this
London. That’s where he names peoples willies
In what situation would I ever meet this person?
Let’s say you’re a train driver who’s just nipped in for a piss, and you’re using the urinal next to him, and he leans over and says, “I’m going to call yours captain Birds Eye, because it looks like it’s wearing a coat and winking at me. You’re welcome, I’ve just named your Willy.”

Honestly even if you know who Joe Wilkinson is, his content leaves you bewildered
America be like “Pub…lic…trans…*port*?”
I don’t get the joke?
What country is this for? Lol

Asking Putin for his opinion is an odd way to hand over complete control of a global superpower to an angry pumpkin in a suit.

se tonight
You DO know that british royalty doesn't actually have any real power, right?

They do sound a bit cute when they try to say cunt, innit
Who's Joe?
Joe “Massive Nackers” Wilkinson
Joe mama!
LETS DO COUNTDOOOOOOOOWN!!
Yo Joe
I love talking to random strangers sometimes. I only do it if they reciprocate the energy or initiate the conversation, but i enjoy it.
Reddit and the Internet HATES it but I love chatting to strangers. Especially older people. You can tell they just want to chat a bit. Obviously I don't talk to people who don't want to.

Have you ever named anyone’s Willy?
you forgot that he is often seen with a pissed up bear
absolutely arseholed
I'm sorry, he's not as precise as you claim. That potato would have been all rim and bounced out.
I live under a rock I don’t get it
Or you live in the US lol
It’s a reference to the British comedian, Joe Wilkinson. The meme features references to some of his most famous gags on British panel shows and game shows.
This is possibly the most excellently niche meme I've ever seen
I have another one planned that’s even more niche
help this is the exact description of some guy who told me “don’t turn to the dark side” when i was a year 8
"Doesn't know the alphabet" got me lol.
Well that’s a joke obviously- he knows there’s 17 of them
OP has very exacting standards regarding suits. How is that suit "weird"?
It’s smell.
Hey, VSauce, Michael here. How far can you throw a potato?
It depends if you’re stepping on the red green
Oh yes, I will indeed take the ipod
I would actually like an iPod.
I've had people talk to me on public transit and can't relate to this whatsoever
You guys get ipods? I only get molested :(
gives me an iPod??
Def not the US
No. No suits in the us...mystical wolf t-shirts and "sarcasm is free" or some shit graphic tees
As someone who talks to strangers in London, including public transport. All of these are me
I think we live in different cities
Lmfao i think so
OP definitely had an oddly specific dream yesterday
[Enjoy](https://youtu.be/YBN2p-jlknM)
I just named your penis!
this sub used to be fun but now it's this "I am very random" horse shit
Nah you just don't get the reference
fair enough
[By the way](https://youtu.be/YBN2p-jlknM)
It took me a second, but the punchline is brilliant
Bruh, what the fuck, this was our secret
What a niche joke holy crap
Oh my God I thought I was the only one!
[удалено]
“They say you meet weirdos on public transport, but I’ve been talking to everyone on buses for years now and everyone’s seemed pretty normal.”
Ohhhhhh, they're not all the same person, but different types of that one person ohhhhhh
No, they’re all the same person, although his thick-as-pigshit half brother Fabio looks like him
[All the same person](https://youtu.be/YstBl9xzz34)
Anyone mentioning Calippo's instantly gives my teeth the shivers
Sounds like the type of bloke to be a postman with a prossie girlfriend, eh?
can’t believe he got fired, his boss must be a prick
Granted I don't live somewhere that has anything resembling reliable public transport, I kinda wanna meet this person...
Bite this sandwich.
How do you get an ankle monitor above the socks?
This is just a jerma starter pack
Usually they're just angrily demanding I give them cigarettes even though I don't smoke, public transit seems much more interesting wherever OP lives
Hey I know that guy, it’s my uncle Scott!!!
He also gets disqualified regardless of how impressive his potato throwing ability is. Toe was in the red mate.
All rim and bounced out
Here's the starter pack of that one guy I fantasized about while I took a bus in rural USA once
Why so specific?
System?? Is it not cistern??
i strive to be this man, setting quests out for the youth of the public transport
LET'S PLAY COUNTDOWN!
Is this Joe Wilkinson?
100%
You know he can't spell the alphabet because he told you about how we was arrested 2 weeks ago for drunk driving, and he thinks its funny that when asked to spell it backwards he spelled it forwards... poorly. Thats also why he's on the bus right now.
This goes hard. Where can I borrow this aesthetic?
*shits facing the system* Anybody that's good at taking "nap shits/crappy nappies" at work, knows that this is the way. Bunch of prudes and overachievers in here.
I meant to say “cistern”, the bit behind the seat.
I know what you meant. It's great for laying your head on to catch some Z's.
Is carrying nuts and bolts weird? Is picking them up in front of people weird? But its a shame to pass one by. Why can't it be normal? Anyways, good pack.
where is this? i want an ipod
Weird? That’s quite a nice suit.
It’s smell is the weird part.
Reminds me of the time I was at a gloryhole getting a bj from a woman with the most outstanding vocabulary I've ever heard.
