MejlaAnna Andersson+ FÖLJÅSIKTSandler has taken – in a fun sexual humor can all förenasAnna Andersson about the humor in a polarized time This is a kulturartikel , which is a part of Aftonbladet’s opinionsjournalistik.Photo: NetflixAdam Sandler entertains in the ”100% fresh”. CULTURE
Adam Sandler features never been a favorite so I was a little surprised by how much I laughed at his new stand-up show 100% fresh (Netflix).
He jokes about gender and sex, and about stuff like that to pee in the shower and orgies on board the space station 69, he sings larviga songs about uberchaufförer that smells bad and if the old people who go very, very slowly across crosswalks. You hear, nonsense all of it.
It is far from the political, the black satire that has been so big the past few years. It has been mainly male comedian – a bit självpåtaget – dress of our people in power and to safeguard free speech. Who are happy to claim that ”you don’t joke about some things anymore, people are so sensitive”. The does not specify what they mean but I get the feeling that they mean the type of ethnic minorities and the disabled. There is a cerebral sense of humor, slick, smart and often wicked.
satire flourishes in a time of political polarization is not strange. Regardless of the side so are easy points to pick up, the jokes about ”sverigevänner” or ”batikhäxor” always brings laughter (or gråtskrattemojisar) from the team. But it is just that, it is only the self that laughs. In general the contribution to this sense of humour – and here I am generous in the definition of humour – to even deeper trenches in the public debate.
in Addition, it is a sense of humor which is often based on anger. But it is when it comes down to it a right, destructive the basis for the community (please see Hannah Gadsbys stand-up show Nanette at Netflix, where she’s the reasoning around this).
Adam Sandler neither angry or spiteful, he is goofy. Despite the fact that he is a white, middle-aged man, so he seems to not pull to joke about it, he think is fun. He shows, for example, that the ancient skämtgenren ”women are incomprehensible” still works, only it is fun enough.
His humor goes more by the belly than the brain and it is never difficult to understand. Sometimes missing points – as when he talks about that the only time he saw his dad vulnerable were the times was ten years since his father shaved of his beard – but then compensates him with minspel. The laughter will immediately.
Perhaps that is where the secret lies. What we long for now is less polarization and more community. A really fun sexual humor can all be reconciled.
PS. the Translation of sandler’s show, however, is under all criticism. He calls himself ”The Sandman”, but they do not mean ”the sandman”, and there is a difference between ”genes” and ”jeans” – with more. DS.
