Nasty Comedians!
I'm sure that if you class yourself as comedian you're meant to be funny, now if you're being nasty how is that funny? It's commonly known that it is really quite hilarious taking the mick out of people! For being fat, hairy, having a lisp, being a freak, or just simply making a joke out of things you do in every day life. Take Peter Kay for instance, he is not nasty in any way whatsoever and one of the UK's biggest (literally ha!) and best comedians. Then you've got comedians on the other end of the scale, such as Chubby Brown. He constantly swears, he's racist and vulgar so why would anyone find his banter remotely funny? Well people do! Don't get me wrong, I'm more of an Alan Carr kind of girl. Being that camp with those teeth is already hilarious without him prancing about or telling any jokes.

If you research comedians on the internet you begin to see what a vast scale of comedians there are. However, with so many types of comedy out there, there obviously is a rather dark side to comedy that arises also. Racism and sexism are not necassary to be featured within comedy performances. Ergo the people that find such issues funny ought to be ashamed!
This has been a bit of a short blog to be honest, but I just do not see the need to give these 'nasty comedians' anymore publicity because they're simply not funny & ought to find another day job!
Years ago, comedians such as Tommy Cooper but on silly voices to make their audiences laugh not make fun of the colour of someones skin or what sex they are.
I probably am guilty of laughing at some cruel jokes, for example when you get jokes sent through to your phone about features on the news. However that is slightly different to being just nasty about people all in the name of comedy!
