Cinderella Is Just Misogynistic Rubbish | Jon Richardson | Universal Comedy 

Did you know that an orange used to be called a norange?

That’s the power of the vegetable he was talking about

So does the onion

@@xXMattMateXx so powerful it can make you cry even if you mispronounce it.

The worst part is now I feel like I do that

To be honest though, I think Sean Locke is the one that made Jon cry those times...

was that scripted btw?

😂😂😂👌so good! Thank you for this comment1

Underrated comment

😂😂

Me too, I want to hear more on that!

Cinderella Is Just Misogynistic Rubbish | Jon Richardson | Universal Comedy 2225pm 30.7.2 did they make that bread he made a sandwich with with sick?........... or is that another anecdote.... i thought he was talking about being drunk and thinking about food... feeling sick.. erm...

You peed yourself a WEE bit

@@BlahBlah-cn3cs HA! YES!!!!!

Because you do it too

@@xaviersmith2199 true...

I heard some of the originals in elementary school. And then wanted to be traumatized more as an adult so I bought a collection of original fairy tales. Most of them end in brutal murder, sometimes unexpected and an obvious overreaction to what happened before in the story. One of the fairy tales (forget what it was called) takes place in the city I currently live in. Two people fall in love and want to get married, she's a commoner and he's rich, his mother opposes the marriage and the couple decides to deal with it by tying a rock to her feet and throwing her in the river drowning her. Some stories also don't make much sense in our current year because we lack the cultural context the stories were written in. You don't know what's going on and then suddenly... orrible murdurr again.

Actually fairytales go so far back we don't actually know the "originals". Just various versions of them :)

I just want to have movies of the original fairytales since they’re more interesting than Disney’s

I think the original cinderella had her step-mother and sisters executed, and in the original snow white the evil queen was her *birth* mother.

@@itsalwayshalloweenexceptwh5118 at least you can see the morals in the originals, like you would notice mother of a rich heir woudn't be happy to welcome some social-climber girl with no education and nothing to her name to the family, it's at least teaches some real life morals. Instead of stupid ideas Disney feeding to young girls, of how physical beauty is the most important thing in woman's life, and just on the back of you being pretty you should get some crazy rich and loving prince charming, who will solve all your problems.

I never knew that!

Also "an orange" used to be "a norange".

That was legitimately interesting, thanks!

That explains why my grandma called me an "obhead" the other day.

Twions?

@@pal8542 twonions

A pair o' funions

You can also try ONE onion instead of an onion.

Two nunyons.

A pinch of salt would bring out the sweetness.

i only went into the comments to find this one or type it myself. thanks for saving me the time!

But then why can't the magic just make THEM not recognize her? And if you spout some lousy nonsense like, well love blah blah blah. He searched AN ENTIRE KINGDOM for her and he needs a stupid shoe to prove his love??

Isn't that a really stupid plot device then? Oh I fell in love with a girl at first sight and then when I found someone who the shoe she dropped fit the girl looked totally different! I mean how likely is a prince to meet someone at a dinner party and learn enough about them to go off much more than physical attraction? Not like he knew her life story or got a great front row seat of how kind she was to the animals.

@@Namron9797 That's,,,, that's literally what happened. The magic only changed her appearance for Stepmom and Stepsisters. And Prince Charming didn't search the entire kingdom. He didn't even know that a search was being performed. The King decided that. He just wanted his son married, and he didn't care if the shoe belonged to the right girl or not. Prince Charming wasn't even in the room for that discussion.

It's also about a girl who knows how to work and - if you've seen 3 Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel (which is a fantastic film) - who's smart enough for riddles and fit enough to go hunting instead of just looking pretty and singing to birds on a balcony. I mean I get the "diamond covered in mud" analogy but I'm honestly sick and tired of princess stories implying that the only thing that makes someone notice you is being pretty. Btw the prince in the movie I mentioned as well learned the lesson that there's more to a girl - or any person really - than the way she dresses and acts at a social occasion. I wholeheartedly recommend watching that film. I've been watching it with my family every year on christmas and I don't think I'll ever quit that tradition. Not trying to bash your views on Cinderella but the frase "somehow everyone misses this" made me want to show you that it's not a matter of understanding the plot but rather a matter of perspective regarding the story.

@@diosdehuecomundo I like the modern spin off as much as everybody else, but the original story is nothing like you've describe. The story is middle age , and reflects the middle age mentality . Is not smartness, witt , or hard work that saves Cinderrela, it's MAGIC ,made by family - her godmother who "happens " to be a fayrie. And it was also the lack of a good family that condemned her in the first place- her father disregarding her - the worse thing that could happen to someone in those times. The only atribute that is praised in Cinderrela , beside her decorative looks , is her obedience and resignation to her fate, the "slave mentality" who was so apreciated by christians...especially in a women ... There is a reason why there is NO story about a prince marrying a low birth woman.. and when it DID happen , rumours about wichery and evil started around her ...This is what they belived then - you are your father's son or daughter , and your place in society was decided at birth.

@@diosdehuecomundo That film sounds interesting, I will look out for it, thanks.

@@speedy7040 Neither the most famous version of the Grimm brothers (1812), nor the older french Version (1679) which is closer to the Disney one were written or published in the middle ages. There's no fairy in the Grimm's Version and her good nature, diligence and relationship to her dead mother are what help her with her fate. The fairytale can be interpreted in a lot of ways and from different viewpoints and it's luckily alot more interesting than just that bleak stereotypical perception we sometimes have about the past. Oh, and Cinderella isn't a "low birth" woman in any of the popular versions, she's abused in a rich home.

I like that radical 90's Z you put in usurped.

You sound v cool let's be friends 😉

Not true for onion, at the very least. The word comes from Latin unio via Old French oignon and was unyun in Middle English. None of these words begins with "n". The article "a" actually comes from "an", not the other way around, which makes your explanation a bit suspect, at least as a generality.

Legit, she never cared about the Prince XD It was the power-hungry Lady Tremaine and her daughters that were all in a tizzy over the guy! (Of course, I'm only going by the Disney version.) Of course, once the Prince singled her out and spent the evening with her, she was smitten. But even then, she didn't know he was the Prince until she got home! At the time, she just thought he was a nice dude and she had a lovely night with him. The end (so she thought).

then you're either saying twonions for two onions or suhmunions for some onions

I know! I was watching Josh Widdicombe's DVD a while ago, and at one point it cut to Alex Brooker giggling away in the audience. Love it when you see (or hear) stuff like that.

This might have been the show Rachel went to

I don't remember eyes being pecked or dancing in hot shoes, but that story of one sister cutting off her toes to fit the shoe, and the other cutting off her heel to fit the shoe, that has stuck in my mind for life. Every single time I hear about that shoe, I think of those mutilated feet.

No I can't

"Can you not take the p*ss out of my friends please, 'cause I knew this lot before I picked you out of the gutter!"

I guess they're making money from international viewers that cannot access whatever TV channel may have previously aired it 🤷‍♀️

Kristen Perry Probably, yes. I just find it unnecessary as I’m sure they make enough off of their tv channel anyway and to monetise the RU-vid videos just seems like greed to me. Just my opinion though.

The business met their modest target for maximum earnings, and ceased to monetise because they had earned "enough". They closed down the company, gave away all their product for free, all the employees took paid early retirement, and everyone lived happily ever after. The end. Night night. Sleep tight.

@@GoggledAgog Very good. Silly, exaggeratedly over the top, nowhere near what I was getting at and an utterly ridiculous alternative as if it was the only one when it isn’t...but well done you. 👍🏻 They’d totally have to do what you said if they didn’t monetise RU-vid videos... Jesus bloody wept the level of “intellect” on this platform. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Well, there IS no such thing as a too long nap time.

@@perfectfiresky Your comment sounds cute, but, just so you know, the reality and consequences of hypersomnia are considerably less fun. May you never have to experience it, and continue to enjoy, and benefit from your naps. :-)

@@daniellamcgee4251 unfortunately I do experience it. Well, not sure if it's to the extent where it needs to be diagnosed, but definitely poses a danger when I'm driving. So not trying to be cute lol but long naps are good

@Karina Peters hahaha how old is old though?

@Karina Peters god forbid you ever have kids if you believe that

Givem The Slip !

_n o _ not even close

@@PointsofData lmao at this😆

Probably somebody who was in too much of a hurry to notice the flaw in the argument "It's #standup #comedy about cooking and #kids."

Good grief.
