They should have a black man host the Tonight Show instead of the same pale white dudes…
ReplyI LOVE TARIQ
Replythat was very funny…nice job Tariq
ReplyI love this more than I probably should lmao
ReplyI was watching a bit of Dylan Moran before this. My advice is: don’t try it. Mixing your standup genres will give you a comedy hangover like you wouldn’t believe.
I’m dreading tomorrow morning … looking at these YouTube comments and wondering: “DId I write this?”
ReplySolid set Tariq!! 👏👏
Reply4:11-4:19 is the description of modern day hip hop and it Irks me to…. never thought that feeling needed a word but it does.
ReplyOMG…YOU NEED TO KEEP THIS AS A REGULAR!!!🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
ReplyTariq nailed the bit! He KILLED!!!
ReplyTariq should be his co host
ReplyTariq is funny as hell I hope they keep giving him the spotlight.
ReplyTariq should have his own show!^.^
ReplyI friggin love this bit. i need moooooooore
Replyily him so much
ReplyPreach!!!!
ReplyMy Irk List…wasting almost 5 minutes of my life listening to this attempt at comedy. Fallon laughs at ANYTHING like a little school girl with braces, and Tariq should just stay in the background, and not speak. What the hell was supposed to be entertaining about this???
ReplyThat couldn’t have been scripted. I believe Thought stays awake at night pondering this stuff. It sounds… personal. But when you hear your thoughts out loud you realize how ridiculous and hysterical that shit is.
ReplyI believe that my ears need to be protect.
ReplyTariq is my man!
ReplyThank you for pointing out the double morning!
ReplyTariq Trotter channels Larry David.
Replybro i’ve always hated when people say “i could care less” instead of “couldn’t”
ReplyTariq is gonna be a ghost haunting Jimbo for ETERNITY!
Replytoo funny Tarik!
ReplyDamn straight about people saying could care less.
ReplyIt’s up there with idiots who say legos.
I’m irked that Tariq’s list wasn’t longer…🤣😂
ReplyOh my goodness! I clicked on this video unwilling… and that’s an understatement. I was so irked by the “I could care less” title. I sat here and cussed to myself, aloud, for a whole minute before deciding to click. After I managed to get in I was relieved. Then the “3 a.m. in the morning” got me riled up again. Thank you for addressing these things. Next time you could add that “to” being used where “too” should be is unacceptable, so is “your” when “you’re” should be used. Well, I shouldn’t expect anyone to bother with “‘re” if “n’t” is too much. What can I say? I’m as irked as you are Tariq.
ReplyFucking towels, man…
Reply“I’m terrible with names” KILLED me.
ReplyTariq is hilarious! We need more of these! For anyone being irked by a non-absorbent towel, I found the problem was using fabric softener when washing!
ReplyTariq is fantastic
ReplyMore….i need more Irk videos
ReplyIt has been a long and tough week, so thank you for this. It is what I needed this morning. This was hilarious! I love these Tariq rants, they are always epic.
ReplyMore Tariq…we need to hear what this guy has to say!
ReplyQuestlove’s laugh is pure gold
ReplyI’m happy because he shared his words cause not everyone share they feel pity
ReplyIt irks me that they’re back to having an audience. They were so much better when it was just Fallon and The Roots bantering and fooling around! No suits, just fun. This is.. trying too hard. I wish Conan still had this show. Damn NBC!
ReplyYooooo I think it’s about time the Roots get their own show
ReplyThis is the Best.
ReplyI 100% agree with him about the “I could care less”
Replythat was an amazing segment!!! Black Thought is the greatest!
Reply“I could care less” is an American habit that irks the rest of us. Outside the US we say “I couldn’t care less”.
Reply[edit]: David Mitchell does an excellent breakdown in a video called Dear America, which demonstrates “I could care less” actually implies you care, not the other way around.
That was just the best!
ReplyMaybe my favorite segment
ReplyI think Tariq is a stand-up comedy in the ‘Tariq’s Irk List’.
Reply5:20 beach towel
ReplyNetflix Give Tariq his own Stand Up Special!
ReplyTariq “Black Thought” Trotter
ReplyYou know he’s one of the best when Eminem looks up to him!
This was essentially a rap freestyle told in common tongue
Please make this a regular spot on the show!!
ReplyWhen Black Thought becomes Jewish Thought…
ReplyBest irk list ever
ReplyI love this kind of humor.
ReplyWhere the heck did that come from???? Priceless,,,Emmy for just that.
ReplyThank you, Tariq for saying what Australians and basically everyone from english speaking countries tells Americans “the saying is ‘I couldn’t care less’ not COULD”
ReplyJimmy i so love youuuuuu
ReplyHis so right with the towel
ReplyTariq is hilarious and I love the interchange between you guys!
Replyit’s 3 A.M. in the morning. My irk is people (even plumbers) saying “hot water heater”. It’s actually a cold water heater or just a water heater.
ReplyDon’t like these segments where Tariq just read things off of a board non-stop with no pause. Gotta keep it more natural, like Amber Ruffin does!
ReplyPlease! Keep doing these! Love it! Much love and gratitude
ReplyThese. Are. The. Fucking. BEST.
