Bren Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 So what does everyone on here think of Karl? I for one think he's one of the funniest people goin. He's so stupid, i dont really know if his character is a real person, or being acted out, by a really gud comedian. He co-hosts Ricky Gervais's podcast, and is funny on that, so download some of those! If you dont know who he is, Meet Karl Pilkington : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRwLXTarr1s
Shorty Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 Warning: first video contains Ricky Gervais' laugh. I think it's possibly the worst sound ever, it may be the sound of a million angels crying out as their wings are burned from their bodies. But I have forced myself past that and will now check out Mr. Pilkington (who I had never heard of). edit: holy crap, even if this is a wind-up I'm surprised nobody's kicked the shit out of this guy yet. someone's going to shoot him in the street one day
Nintendork Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 I am a lot like Karl but he gets paid to do it.
The Peeps Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Karl Pilkington is hilarious. Just listen to any of the ricky gervais podcasts or ricky's xfm radio show that karl produced (available on xfm's site)
Bren Posted January 16, 2007 Author Posted January 16, 2007 thats the thing, i dont think anyones sure. He seems beleiveable(sp?)
killthenet Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 He's just playing a massively exaggerated version of himself. End 'o story.
Dan_Dare Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 I dunno what to make of him, but if anyone has heard the conversation about the infinite monkeys and Shakespeare, that's comedy gold I hope it's not a set up. He's fantastic.
Ninty 182 Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 I got 'The World Of Karl Pilkington' for christmas which is a book of his best radio things with Ricky and Steve as well as his drawings and notes and what have you. It's short but hilarious, he's one of the funniest guys ever.
Roostophe Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 I got 'The World Of Karl Pilkington' for christmas which is a book of his best radio things with Ricky and Steve as well as his drawings and notes and what have you. It's short but hilarious, he's one of the funniest guys ever. I got the book as well. It's well funny. What some of you on here don't realise is that the Karl Pilkington you hear is actually Karl Pilkington himself, believe it or not. You couldn't script stuff like that, no way. edit: holy crap, even if this is a wind-up I'm surprised nobody's kicked the shit out of this guy yet. someone's going to shoot him in the street one day It'll most likely be you that'll get shot. :wink:
weeyellowbloke Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 I got 'The World Of Karl Pilkington' for christmas which is a book of his best radio things with Ricky and Steve as well as his drawings and notes and what have you. It's short but hilarious, he's one of the funniest guys ever. Well, whaddaya know, I went and got the same thing for Christmas. I reckon he can't be acting up, some of the stuff he says is just too weird and removed from reality. The most likely explanation is that he is just a hilarious idiot. I quite like Stephen Merchant as well, he comes out with some pretty funny one liners.
Wesley Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Karl is amazing. Simply put. The best thing ever. I've listened to the podcasts of Ricky's show on XFM, and for once I think I have laughed at someone else more than Ricky himself.
Ninty 182 Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 The funniest thing is just that he'll say the most unexpected things. Most funny people you can tell when a punchline is coming and it's a joke you'd expect. With karl out of nowhere he'll say something incredibly funny. He can't be faking it. Exaggerating maybe
