People are easily offended by everything... but people will always need to laugh

David: Yes, I think so, although I think the thing that I celebrate in comedy is the impish urge to do the thing you’re not supposed to do. That’s why in the past you'd have so many jokes about sex, which was taboo.

There’s a very human urge to be naughty - the naughtiness of putting a whoopee cushion under the teacher's chair, the naughtiness of saying the word you're told not to say, or nearly saying it. The fundamental urge to do that is, I think, a great thing about the human spirit. That's what drives me to watch comedy and to make comedy at any time.

The lines may shift and move but the fact that the nature of debate and the nature of society is different now from when we were last doing a sketch show, doesn’t make the comedy harder. It just makes it different.
