Weird tics, certain expressions/voices, and annoying repetitions in their mannerisms are why I can't watch pretty much any stand up comedians. I have yet to find one that doesn't annoy me deeply.

[(Anonymous)]

I play comedy on my phone while I'm doing other things, so I miss the physical mannerisms.

("Nanette" was the most gutted I've ever felt after listening to a standup comedian.)

[(Anonymous)]

I don't know the comedian or the material from the show but... isn't feeling gutted while listening to a comedian kind of... opposite of the point of listening to a comedian?

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, which was... sort of the point?

One of the things she says early on in the special is how conflicted (and tired) she is about self-deprecating humor.

I'm not sure if she states it outright, but there's a point, too, about how generally humans use humor to ease people's discomfort over difficult or painful topics, but perhaps we *shouldn't* become comfortable with such things (hate crimes, homophobia, rape, CSA).

[(Anonymous)]

Okay, but people using humour to cope with things has nothing to do with a stand-up comedian performing non-comedic things. Just... don't make jokes about those sort of things if you don't agree with it?

I'd honestly feel a little bait and switched if I went to watch a stand up and halfway through the show they started telling me everything that was depressing and wrong with the world.

[(Anonymous)]

The show was advertised as her departure from comedy when it was running, and a lot was written about it in Australian media, so I doubt anyone who attended felt wronged.

Also, I tend to feel that a comedian with no insight isn't worth my time. Good comedians work with difficult topics.

Never watched her properly, but I've seen gifsets, and her appearance is a trip for me because she looks a lot like a woman from one of the family vlogger channels I watch, Mabel's Moms, and I constantly have to remind myself they're different people

[(Anonymous)]

the facial expressions and tics could be because she has autism ....

I thought it was Johnny Depp at first.
