Billy Connelly

[Lou Girardin]

Went to see him last night. I was a bit unsure about the show, I'd read a crap review and wondered if he'd lost it at the ripe old age of 61.
Au contraire, he was a riot. 2 3/4 hours of effing and blinding, prancing around like a teenager. Bloody hilarious.
His new theme is 'senior moments'.
He gave us heaps about Lord of the rings and Americas cup even slipped in a crack about our drivers.
He thinks that when someone overtakes us at passing lanes, we shouldn't take it personally. They're not insulting us or our cars and they don't want a race either.
Zed probably wouldn't have enjoyed him though, Billy gave religion, especially christians a major serve.
Well worth the bucks.
Lou

[Jackrat]

Yeah,I saw him a few years ago.
Still laugh when ever I think about it.That was in OZ an he took the piss out of them big time.Bloody good stuff.

[Zed]

...Zed probably wouldn't have enjoyed him though, Billy gave religion, especially christians a major serve...
You're right Lou, I wouldn't enjoy his humor...and this is what God says to people like Billy:

I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: Proverbs 1:26-29

...and I guess the fact Billy has already lived to 61 and is probably as rich as hell your mate God has really acted on his promise or Billy hasn't needed to call him huh.

... and like all good religious people when someone is in distress and anguish he will not answer. Really charitable huh.

We proberly deserved every bit of it, I personally don't like his use of expletives upon expletives but did enjoy his doco's of travelling around OZ on a trike.

Billy was quite good in a serious role in The Last Samurai. Pity he died ;) No bikes in that movie though, usually Tom Cruise has at least 1 bike in each of his movies??

[SPman]

Saw Billy on Sunday - good show. His language doesnt worry me - as he says..."if you're going to swear, do it well......I do it very well!"

And if you dont like it ..well..you can Fuck Off!

[bondagebunny]

have you got a reference guide to your book - a quote for every occasion,

geez it tiresome, keep it to your self

Billy is the funiest bugger ever as far as I'm conscerned.

God is love, yes, but He is also a God of judgment! If a man scoffs and scorns God publicly and causes others to do the same then God must bring judgment on that man for his wrongdoing. Because God is longsuffering the executing of that judgment may not come immediately, it may be years later. Our lifetime is very short, and many aged people will testify to that, but God is not bound by time because He inhabits eternity!

I've seen quite a few movies where he has had a serious role - always very good. I think the mark of a great actor is when you forget who they really are. The only stoopid thing he ever did was that American sitcom that died a natural death. :thud: I haven't seen him live but I would love too :yes:

He was superb in Mrs Brown.

He was superb in Mrs Brown.

That was the one that sprang to mind, I have seen him in others though and I think his Glaswegian accent is dead sexy! :shifty:

[SPman]

He also did a good routine about BEIGE PEOPLE!........

Zed :innocent:

I wonder if God ever tires of humourless gits interpreting "His" word.
The Bible comes to us in English, via Latin and Greek from its original Aramic, and there are all sorts of people around who claim to know what it means.
You can't all be right.

How come there's no religion that preaches:

Thou shalt keep the gospel to yerself, unless asked....

Perhaps one of the resident Godbotherers could explain why God has guys on TV, dressed in Polyester Suits and bad haircuts asking for money on His behalf? Surely a truly omnipotent deity could summon up his own cash, and would have a better dress sense?

[wkid_one]

I wonder when the day will arrive when we get to have a thread WITHOUT a quote about some biblical bullshit.

What makes you think these charlatans represent the true God? Have they fooled you too? :weep:

... "The Man Who Sued God"

Excellent movie that was absolutely written for him. Swore like a trogan in it but always warranted.

Quite appropriate within this thread, huh.

For fuck sake Zed, I thought this thread is about Billy fucken Connelly not a religious fucken debate. Go start you own thread and stop fucken annoying everyone here. If we feel like debating fucken religion with you we visit you there.
PS: don't reply to this here. I will look out for you thread and read that if I want to preached to.
IN the words of BC "FUCK OFF" and go and stand in someone elses door.

Hmmm, could get into this quoting biz. Here's my contribution to the spamming:

On my planet, to rest is to rest -- to cease using energy. To me, it
is quite illogical to run up and down on green grass, using energy,
instead of saving it.

I was only taking the p*ss Two Smoker. I'm not really a Trekkie, just seemed appropriate to preach the word of Spock within this thread once it become yet another verse of How Great Thou Art.

'Twont happen again. No more spam from Pam... err, Deb.

He was pretty good in "The Man Who Sued God" - wasn't a bad movie, but the cockatoo coming through the window at the end seemed a bit contrived

Hey Zed, next time you log on, why don't you leave your Bible at the other end of the house?

:Offtopic: Stick with the Billy thread Lou, it's pretty obvious your just trying to stir up more trouble! If you read everyones posts on "your" thread you would see that some are getting fed up with all this, so have some respect for their wishes will you.

Tell me, Zed, do you take this attitude to your Christian Forums?
Do you go to www.godbotheringdickheads.com and rave on about motorcycles? In discussions with subjects like "Boring the shit out of the Heathen" and "How to make a complete tit of yerself by quoting the bible incessantly", do you but in and rave on about bikes?
No?
Well why fucking do it here....do you actually think someones gonna be converted due to you constant carping about your religion - "...Yes, I found God on KiwiBiker, thank you Zed"

Exactly, I've never seen so much religious shit from one guy in all my life and it isn't improving my perception of godsquadders one iota. I always thought the ones I met were mean-arsed intolerant up-tight types always with a sour look on their face with no sign of compassion and short of that fun in their eyes. Don't get me going on how they treated their spouses or partners either other than to say many are not together anymore. Zed, you going to prove me wrong by improving your ways on here? Everyone else I know treats humans humanely and doesn't say they will be struck down for having that opinion, whether it be now or some time into the future. They (particularly the bikers I know) are tolerant and helpful and caring, what's wrong with you religious dudes can't you see the error of your ways and be like that too?

Now here's an interesting thing:

Heathen

(Heb. plural goyum). At first the word _goyim_ denoted generally all the nations of the world (Gen. 18:18; comp. Gal. 3:8). The Jews afterwards became a people distinguished in a marked manner from the other _goyim_. They were a separate people (Lev. 20:23; 26:14-45; Deut. 28), and the other nations, the Amorites, Hittites, etc., were the _goyim_, the heathen, with whom the Jews were forbidden to be associated in any way (Josh. 23:7; 1 Kings 11:2). The practice of idolatry was the characteristic of these nations, and hence the word came to designate idolaters (Ps. 106:47; Jer. 46:28; Lam. 1:3; Isa. 36:18), the wicked (Ps. 9:5, 15, 17). The corresponding Greek word in the New Testament, _ethne_, has similar shades of meaning. In Acts 22:21, Gal. 3:14, it denotes the people of the earth generally; and in Matt. 6:7, an idolater. In modern usage the word
denotes all nations that are strangers to revealed religion.

I discovered I am a heathen in the true sense of the word: "...the practice of idolatry".

For this is my born again calling:

I am an idolator! -

Praise my idols!
Bow to Pine Tree!
Blessed is the mighty Waikato Rugby Team!
Lift your eyes to Scuderia Ferrari!
Blessed is the Big Schuey!
Praise the big single!
O yea, and blessed be the folks at Lion Nathan, as they bring forth Waikato Draught, and it is good!!!!!


Here endeth the lesson.
Go in peace my people......

[RiderInBlack]

Well that's enough about religon:shutup: I'd tell you about my first time. My eye's were rolled in the back of my head:rolleyes: The magazine was open at a particully sellishious picture. Pounding away to my heart's content. When the shopkeeper walked up and said "Well son, are you going to buy that fucken thing?" :lol: (Quote unquote BC)

Just thought we should get back to the subject:Punk:

[Skyryder]

geez it tiresome, keep it to your self

Zed probably uses a concordance. Just not too sure where Billy Connally's name is in there but zealots like Zed see themselves as God's judges and quote scripture to convince themselves of their own righteousness.

I once sat next to a young Morman who was going back home after his two years missionary work in New Zealand. This was on flight to America. This poor soul could not give an opinion on anything with out quoting from the bible. Oh I tell a lie. He had just found out that his girlfriend had just married his best friend and was down in the dumps. I told him to go to a bordello and enjoy himself for once in his life. Never did find out if he took my advice.
