A Comedian's View on Postmodernism
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
This has nothing to do with postmodernism. The piece is called “Speak with Conviction”.
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
a critique on the limitations of post-modern irony and lack of conviction that is, in itself, ironic and not very heartfelt….
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
respect the comedian for using words that may atagonise the viewers perception of their intelligence, thin ice, but he gets away with it in this crowd, But what’s with the bizzare mimish style dancing he’s doing as he’s talking, thats atagonising my vision

November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
true true
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am

November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
Fucking awesome.
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
not funny.
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
that’s definitely true, it is very postmodern, but so are a million things that don’t mean to be. but yeah, he prly did mean to be, i resign, haha.

I agree with the comments abuot it being a deliberation into linguistics as much as postmodernism. However he is arguing for moral truisms and genuine convictions because these things have been made ‘unfashionable’ by postmodernism (particularly the err… postmodernist hipsters)

taylor mali. he’s a poet, not a comedian
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
This isn’t actually comedy, this is like someone’s dad complaining about “kids these days” and lecturing the audience.
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
This isn’t about postmodernism, it IS postmodernism. Taken at face value, the content is linguistic, but the way in which it’s presented is a brilliant statement about postmodernism– deliberate hypocrisy, inconsistency between formal and informal tone, etc.
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
Hahaha.
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
i’m not even gonna deal with the racism, but next, he didn’t mention postmodernism. this could’ve been funny when u just think about the way people speak and use words. that was orly his point, since he was wearing a scrabble shirt. he’s a linguist!
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
How is the audience getting this humor? Are there “laugh” signs? I mean, the audience is mostly black so how are they able to laugh at punchlines that require thought? I don’t get it.
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
I don’t think it’s fair for you to assume that the general population has no awareness of postmodernistic art. It’s not as esoteric as you may think it is. Granted, many don’t take the time to research the specifics, but everyone and anyone can sense the intellectual and pretentious aura of the art.
hopefully, that made sense
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
shemay!

Speaking with conviction undermines postmodern expression.
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
all dem votin for obamaa
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
what show is this ? def comedy jam for literates?
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
Too bad he’s a slam poet, not a comedian.
November 19th, 2009 at 1:59 am
Yeah, all people respond to that. You’d have to be crazy not to. It’s easy to hear that and identify with it. To think that that’s enough. To think that one’s emotional investment is the same as one’s confident conviction.
That’s probably why this message had to be presented in an artistic, emotional way. It wouldn’t resonate if it were presented dryly (which it most likely was to most of these people, in grade school).

Bravo!
