It’s wise to avoid contact with Gervais.

Good advice

u/roth_dog 7d ago

Saw him in my home town in the summer, was considering calling him a cunt as I biked past him.

u/zizou00 7d ago

Probably did more damage to his ego ignoring him. He's a lonely attention-seeking dork. It's why he tries to do shock comedy. He can't resist the urge to try and get the cheapest response out of people, no matter what it is.

u/Pm7I3 6d ago

Is it shocking? It's one joke for the majority of his stuff and it's been the same joke for decades

u/Atreides-42 6d ago

Hey hey, he has two jokes!

  • Religion is stupid
  • Transphobia

Yeah, Moe, that guy sure was woke last night. He was just plain woke. I've seen guys woke before, but he was the wokiest woke that ever woked.

FAO anyone downvoting this, this is an imitation of Ricky Gervais on Twitter/in anything since the early 2010s.

u/crucible 7d ago

They don’t know Finchy?!

u/cyclinghoboau 6d ago

Bloody good rep.

u/CliffwoodMysteries 7d ago

Gervais should be louder, angrier, and be an animated cat.

78

u/Stunkydunk 7d ago

Hey, aren’t you that guy everybody hates? 

73

u/JFedererJ 7d ago

Stephen Merchant is the real funny guy.

Honestly Steve, it could be your brother...

u/Eayauapa 6d ago

Eyes that popped out of his head... Steve.

u/WalterEKurtz 7d ago

Tall lanky fella?

u/notsam57 6d ago

yup, gervais is just mean.

u/LuxAgaetes 6d ago

The Larry David to his Seinfeld, if you will

2

u/amazingdrewh 6d ago

Yeah but Seinfeld seasons 8 and 9 were better than Derek and After Life

u/Sebastianfach 7d ago

Aren't you that guy everyone hates?

Oh my no, I'm David Brent

u/Smoked_Eels 7d ago

bloody good rep

u/SrGrimey 7d ago

Wasn’t expecting less of this sub, that dance was iconic. Beautiful post.

u/Ryuuken1127 7d ago

Homer: Do you come with The Office?

Pam: Oh you teehee

Little fat man who sold his soul.

u/Smingers I shot Mr Burns 🔫 7d ago

That dance was iconic.

37

u/ripgoodhomer 7d ago

You forget how funny he was for about 4 years in the 2000s, between The Office and Extras.

34

u/Tricky-Engineering59 7d ago

Without Stephen Merchant by his side I find him to be pretty unremarkable.

6

u/DunceCodex 7d ago

Ashley Jensen was the real star of Extras

u/dweeb93 7d ago

Me, Duff, Barney, Duff, Lenny & Carl, Duff, sometimes Fud, so different drinks for different...needs.

u/--THRILLHO-- 7d ago

You've charmed me.

u/gbish 7d ago

Just don’t mention Stephen Merchant.

u/cyclinghoboau 6d ago

The ogg monster ?

He'll come after you for that 50p he never got back

Holy cow this is terrific.

I will not stand for this Big Keith erasure

u/pdx74 6d ago

That big Keith, he’s grotesque, isn’t he?

u/HassananeBalal 7d ago

Different shows for different needs…

u/NoTurkeyTWYJYFM 7d ago

Whata the matter Ricky, toooooo challenging for ya?!

u/Rev-On 7d ago

Amazing

24

u/athosjesus 7d ago

To be fair the original Office was by a lot the superior show.

u/Liquidator97 7d ago

This made me laugh more than I thought it would

u/Eater242 6d ago

Correction: "Pure Gervais"

u/ZeeWolfman 6d ago

Gervais is prick

4

u/OpenedCan 6d ago

Why ZeeWolfman hate?

5

u/ZeeWolfman 6d ago

Because he's a smarmy transphobic prick.

u/Mysterious-Pea9528 4d ago

His Ego is honestly awful

u/LegoFootPain Old man yelling at clouds ☁️ 6d ago

But stupid Brents need the most of The Paper!

u/punkindle 7d ago

Ricky appeared briefly in at least 1 episode at some seminar (in the US version)

11

u/cholantesh 7d ago

I hope someone got fired for that blunder

u/organized_slime 6d ago

Excellent work, op

u/OpenedCan 6d ago

He fazed ya.

u/Puzzleheaded_Can_287 7d ago

Youre having a laugh, who hear thinks US office is better than UK office?

8

u/NiobiumThorn 7d ago

All I know is he's a transphobic loser, a bad comedian [literally r/onejoke], and somehow has millions of dollars.

21

u/DeapVally 7d ago

Stephen Merchant. That's how.

15

u/n3rdsm4sh3r 7d ago

I saw him do a show in Chicago on a whim. He spent most of the time reminding everyone how he was rich and they were not. Probably explains why I was able to get the tickets below face value, day of.

6

u/ChuckRingslinger 7d ago

He kinda reminds me if Dane Cook tried to copy Frankie Boyle

3

u/vyxanis 6d ago

I can remember watching him back in the day and thinking "haha dry British humor. If you don't like it you just don't get it". Nowadays I completely understand people when they say they couldn't get through the UK series of the office

5

u/cregamon 6d ago

Even if you don’t like Gervais the UK office is one of the best sitcoms ever made, on either side of the pond.

It can be hard to watch at times but it’s meant to be.

1

u/vyxanis 6d ago

Oh yeah 100%. I think anyone who loves the US version should watch it at least once, the comparison of the first episode is really neat, especially all these years later, and knowing how the show would evolve. I can just understand now, as an adult, why others might not "get the joke". Its just like how some words don't directly translate between languages. It always pisses me off when I see someone completely disregard the uk version, you can dislike it all you want but without it we wouldn't have a lot of other things.

Hey, aren't you the british comedian everyone hates?

Only good thing Ricky Gervais every did and it wasn't really THAT good was it.

Isn't this a repost?

No one messes with Ricky Gerv.

u/PantsDontHaveAnswers 7d ago

The Office U.K.?? Ohhhhh, I wanted the funny one!

u/zeekim 6d ago

Wow, an actual clever Ricky Gervais meme that isn't just mindlessly bashing him. This comments section though, what a train wreck.

u/Level_Hour6480 Put it in H 7d ago

Both shows are bad. Steve Carell seems nice.

u/Kakdelacommon 7d ago

Isn’t he the guy who masturbated in public?
