Simply 14 times the fabulous Jemaine Clement made our day so much better on Twitter
We love everything Jemaine Clement has done from Eagle Vs Shark to the new adaption of Time Bandits over on Apple TV (and are currently on our third re-watch of Flight of the Conchords).
And when we say ‘everything’ that includes Twitter, and here are 14 reasons why.
1. When a troll took issue with this Flight of the Conchords song
Clipping this now… listening to the 4th greatest New Zealand folk rock band of our generation…

The guy on the couch says the song is about a thirteen year old girl. Just saying. https://t.co/fqjTW9Vf5V

That’s what we call a joke buddy. About all the lyrics being bad comparisons. Next time I’ll explain how when a character in a sitcom says they won’t do something and then it suddenly cuts them them doing it, that’s “irony” and it’s not a contradiction it’s supposed to be funny.

So you’re saying it’s fine to joke about statutory rape, so long as it’s just jokes. ✍

No, the first guy compares the subject of the song to Juliet from the play “Romeo and Juliet” – and I reply, disturbed, “what, 13?” – most people forget that that character in that play is 13 because she’s usually played by adults. Get it? https://t.co/m23ol3ioFf

Well, look at you not being defensive at all. The content is the content, regardless of the context.
Or does it make it okay because Shakespeare did it first?

The joke is a guy constantly missing the point and getting things wrong. Seems like you might relate to that. https://t.co/D5qr5SE9QI

2. When Aussie breaker Raygun went viral at the Olympics
This is Rachael Gunn, she has a PhD in cultural movement and convinced Australia to pay for her trip to the Paris Olympics.
She participated in break dancing and got 0 points.

I’ve been to Australia. That was their best dancer.

3. When a troll asked him why he stopped being funny
Hey Jemaine, Why did you stop being funny?

Because I wanted to see what it was like to be John Meffen. https://t.co/egSsALe1bP

4. When he launched DADSONLY
Check out my DADSONLY page. DADSONLY is the only site with exclusive pictures and videos of fathers taking out rubbish, connecting cables, lounging on chairs and wearing swimwear that is between 3 – 20 years old… pic.twitter.com/d2pHBA3o6D

5. When someone said politics in France had taken a turn for the worse
Look at how they are dressed, haircuts, & general appearance
No video better shows why things are getting worse under the left in Europe

Last time the French stopped the people with the better clothes from being in power, they chopped their fucking heads off. Consider this an improvement. https://t.co/sEsk5E7TuH

6. When they launched a Queen’s Gambit board game

7. When someone highlighted the AI ‘actors’ in this Disney film
Noticed it’s a whole row of AI actors. Yikes!
Disney is insane and just more reason why the AMPTP needs to ditch this plan to replace background actors with AI. The uncanny valley will always make your show/film look like hot garbage and age like milk. pic.twitter.com/NpfNbx2X1T
