Fair game and funny. But interesting tittle.
No not really. I understand that a lot of people see Amy as fair game but I'm not comfortable with it and wouldn't perform it. I don't think it's even that funny.
I'm not going to comment on the self harming issue but it's a lazy weak gag, possibly designed to seem controversial but actually just piss poor. It's not unlike the endless variety of equally lazy poor Spice Girl gags that proliferated on the circuit back when I first did stand up.
I haven't heard the entire act so wouldn't judge her on this one gag alone but it's too easy a target. It's like saying "God aren't Halford's crap?" on a cycling forum, easy acceptance but nowt else.
The runner up gag seems out of the same mould too.
Anyway, it's not the funniest joke on the fringe, it's the 'funniest' joke as selected from a list of 30 put forward by comedy critics and then voted for by Dave viewers.
