Stand-up comedian Katerina Vrana talks about stereotypes and makes us all believe that the reason that they are funny is that they are true. This 16 minutes performance has everything; from humor, inconvenient truths and family secrets, to the actress's plan for global domination. One thing is for sure: it will make you laugh wholeheartedly.
Katerina Vrana was born and raised in Greece. She went to study in the UK and stayed there. As an actress, she has appeared in TV series in Greece, stage productions in London and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, as well as in short films in both Greece and the UK. As the well-known London arts magazine, Time Out, once reported "Katerina Vrana sparkles" on stage.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

A stereotype is a generalization that potentially offends people. In order to be offensive it has to be somewhat true or at least have a grain of truth. If someone generalized that all the great composers are Scots it wouldn't offend Scots or non-Scots because it's too far from the truth to be taken seriously. Often whether it's offensive depends on who is speaking. Most groups make fun of themselves but if someone outside the group makes the same joke it's offensive. This attitude carries over to discussing public affairs. When you discuss public affairs you want to be objective and be seen as objective, but this is impossible. You are required not to offend anyone with power (you are welcome to offend unfashionable groups, such as poor whites or Muslims.) This precludes objectivity since the truth is not always flattering. An objective discussion of public affairs can only take place in private, if at all. But then we should not take seriously what 'experts' say on television because they know they are not allowed to say various things and are even required to lie.

For all the haters out there, that don't think she's funny, get a life, and learn something, cause everything she says makes perfect sense and is epic-ally funny! The only way this is not funny to you is because you don't have any cross-culture experience.

@poego6045
@poego6045 4 года назад
The title is kinda weird? This is kinda just a stand-up set. I thought this would be like, a breakdown of our use of stereotypes, and while I disagree that stereotypes are always inherently funny, I still wanted to watch to get a differing opinion to see what the justification would be (like, maybe it would be "stereotypes, when not punching down, or directed towards your own culture or something like that"), but then it's mostly just a standup set that has stereotypes in it. Not really anything that awful, but also, kinda disappointed. (unless her point is that stereotypes are funny because they are true, when them being funny isn't per say due to that, and judging from some of the jokes, not even funny to begin with based on the reactions of the audience)
@potentperson

I just wish she had told us what she was going to talk about or what she was talking about or what she had just talked about. To me TED and TEDx talks have a point and evidence supporting that point. Just because it's TEDx doesn't mean it shouldn't be well-constructed. She's likeable and I enjoyed her, but was left waiting for the point.

@danaeprotopsalti80
@danaeprotopsalti80 8 лет назад
now look people, there is a reason why you do not find her funny. what she does is saying greek jokes in english, that's why you do not find her funny. greek humor is a type of humor that only greeks find funny, greek humor should not be translated because then no one finds it funny. that woman is actually really funny, any greek person who has seen her in greek shows know that she is a funny lady with a lot of humor (yeah i know i use a lot of the word funny). translating jokes is actually a really difficult and most of the time failed process, for example, all you that you're native language isn't english but you like english stand up comedians and their jokes, imagine if they translate these jokes in your native language, i'm pretty sure they will be total failures. so, the problem isn't that she is not funny, it's the fact that this type of humor, you don't find funny

Her point about the rain is so true. In Nigeria (where I come from) the rain is like turning your shower setting to massage but outside and everywhere you go but in England you can barely feel it. It takes like a few minutes to get soaked through but like back home the second you go outside you are soaked through.
