I see Dave Allen is trending.

Not many 35 year olds probably get the reference, but I assumed it was about the late legendary comedian.

As good a time as any to re-share this - a sketch that I only saw recently thanks to Twitter.

Amazing observation on human nature. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙃" title="Upside-down face" aria-label="Emoji: Upside-down face"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49xiMfzjpSs">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

Watching bits of his stand-up. Talking (disdainfully) about The Church, & the first time he learned to bless himself, at an uncle& #39;s funeral in Dublin.

"I heard the priest say - what I thought was - & #39;In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and into the hole he goes." https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😄" title="Smiling face with open mouth and smiling eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with open mouth and smiling eyes">

His stand up is peppered with - at the time - truly original takes.

Here’s one I often bring up myself: how fairy tales & myths are basically adults traumatising kids.

The man had real insight.

Couldn’t upload this without uploading the rest of the story.

Sharp as a diamond.
