Have you ever had a fight like this with your mother?

“GO ON, DADDY!! DRIVE HER LIKE YOU STOLE HER!!” Omg the best line EVER!!!!!!!!! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

I miss my little Irish mum. I am old man now of 64 and mum made it to 96. And she was still fighting right up to the end. A Cork woman, with a build like Popeye. Oh she was small but hard as nails. The problem was her brothers the Creans from Kinsale taught her boxing. They were all sailors and fishermen, and they also taught her to swear like one of them. I saw her once hop about a 2 meter fence and take down a Clonmel neighbour twice her size who told her to "Feck off!" "Yer wot!" she said and that was it. Off she went like a little whirlwind. That neighbour she put on the floor with one punch and sat on top of her bashing the face in. She used to give us a good belt about the head. My dad used to run. Kind of funny seeing an English Protestant man running from a little Irish Catholic woman. Dad certainly could run fast :) But she and dad loved us all. And they loved one another deeply for over 65 years. She was the last of her family to go. One thing I can say is that the Irish have life by its tail and they will hang on to it.

I have been living in Ireland for about five years now. This explains a lot about the people.

My ma used to shout, “I’ll fuckin’ crucify ye”, which other people presumed was a figure of speech, not knowing that she had actually already crucified me for real. Not the full “nails hammered through the wrists” version, just the “tied hanging from the staircase by my arms” version. She properly tried to kill me on 3 different occasions.

If this is an example of an Irish childhood, I think my parents stole your guide book.

My (Ulster) Mum wasn't like this. But the school bag routine was absolutely real! Sometimes I'd leave it in the 'wrong' place and 30 seconds later it was flung out on the drive with accompanying instructions.

My friend from Co Tipperary, the youngest of a shitload of kids, he was the youngest & expected to look after Mammy. He got his HGV licence & took a job that kept him away in Europe for 5 days a week, just as soon as he was old enough. He told me he didn’t blame her, his Da had run away to England with Mammy’s sister, leaving her with all these kids! My friend would say they were like a small flock of sheep, following her round, calling, “Ma, Ma!” All at once. I loved my visits to his home town though, everyone I was introduced to said, “Welcome home to Roscrea.” They we’re so generous & kind. I went to a wedding there & there were 7 bridesmaids & 7 groomsmen! A massive sit down dinner for 300, several rooms booked for those who got too pissed to get on the coach home! It was like money was no problem at all. My friend told me that an Irishman started a bank account for his daughter’s wedding the day she was born. I believe it too! It was spectacular!

Did anyone else get the "No Father! Stop it! Get off me!!" over and over? A friend told me she ran into her parents room with a broom and told her Dad to leave Mum alone.

And I thought I was the only one who had an irrational phyco for a Mother... the only difference is I had the Scottish version lol xxx

Oh my god I had this mother 😂🤣😂. I was 1 of 4 children and I remember we talked about how much better it would be if we could all go live at Bernardo’s. (Childrens home). I now know of course that my mother was a slave to her hormones, loving and suffocatingly affectionate one day and the devil incarnate the next ( sometimes the same day).The problem was you never knew what you were getting when you walked through the door.

*Drive 'er like you stole 'er!!* 🤣🤣

The spring symphony!!! I’m dying!!! 🤣🤣🤣

So delighted your uploading your material Tommy. Get it all up!

KZfaq finally recommended something good 😆 as an American i never get to hear Irish or Scottish accents and i love them. ❤

The spring symphony 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I am also the ma and I come from along line of Irish mothers before me.... We are getting slightly less mental as time goes on, I hope. Hahahahaha . The wee lass Roisin cracks up at the part, "you're dinner! Yee'd be fecking lucky!!"

The ould spring symphony

Well done you fought your way out of the madness and the loveless childhood.

This really makes me look at myself and my reactions from a different perspective. I love it

Imagine if they gave Gerry these fantastic lines in Derry Girls. He'd have been UNSTOPPABLE 😂😂🤣🤣

Love it! Thank you!

Some of you didn’t grow up in a screwed up household and it shows. People use humor to cope with this stuff. If it’s not your thing, move on…

We saw him at Just for Laughs comedy in Montreal quite a few years back. He's hilarious.

I was always in trouble for staring out the window. I'm part Irish and this is all too true. It where dark humor comes from.

Love his humour and delivery

Thankyou so much. Not laffed like that for so long. 🤣🤣🤣😘😘

This guy is so funny your laughing so much it hurts. 😂👏

And this is why people become comedians to be able to deal with the crap.

'Don't f*ck with me!' ha ha lol

I love this guy!

This is my first time of seeing him & I was dying laughing, especially the encouraging, “Go on, Daddy, ride her like ya stole her!” He’s like the Irish Billy Connolly! Where can I find more of him?

THIS is BY FAR my FAVORITE stand-up of his!!! Love ya so much, Tommy!!! 🤣

Thank you 🦋

Amazing 😻

I’d love to share this with me own Mother, but I can’t for all the cursing! 🤣

Omg!! Almost peed myself 😂😂😂

Politically not correct but as real life happens, it’s absolutely spot on.

Loved him in derry girls

Even now, my Irish mum, a couple of weeks ago we went down to Cornwall for her and my da’s wedding anniversary, I’d forgotten my charger, I said “ma please can I borrow your charger” she goes “I’ll feckin charge you in a minute!!!!!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

My mother to a "T"!! A screamer and she could reduce you to a quivering spot of jelly on the floor in 10 seconds of her interrogating! She once had my father come to take me out of my 5th grade class at mid day because she wanted to know why I had gotten into her bag of fabric scraps while they were on vacation ...And the worst was elwhen she gave you a spanking ( with dads leather belt or a "bolo" paddle) she became a madwoman who was so worked up she just wouldn't stop! My dad would have to enter in and grab her arm to make her quit and tell her "that's enough!" I only got one spanking from her and that's all it took for me to become a child that blended into the walls!

He really didn't get on with his mother, stopped talking, he admitted this in an interview.

Tommy is of the people. Finger on the pulse because we love Tommy he's our brother in arm's. 👊😂😂😂☘️

🎉 3:58 and there goes roto rotor and a chopper😂 4:16 😂😂😂😂

Guess Irish and Scottish mother's have a lot in common. Mental ! Mine was !

How lucky was I? My mother was an angel!

🤣🤣🤣

I am this Mother🤣🤣🤣😩

I showed this to my son who is doing his LC year 😂

While this is utterly hilarious for the material, as someone who has only seen Tommy rather staid on Derry Girls, listening to him swear like a sailor is oddly refreshing

Very funny😂🤣😂🤣😂

In America you dont want to sit by the window due to random bullets being fired !!!

OMFG...... East Coast Canada right there by..... That's that's just how it is in East Coast Canada, bloody hell

Never have I laughed as bad and me with a mirgraine .this is my son to me tells me he put me in a mental home .only I would drive people mental .oh Tommy u have give my mirgraine a mirgraine with laughing brilliant x

Hahahahahahahahhahahaa

Did you know, Miramichi is the home of the world's largest Irish festival and the home of the largest cultural festival in Canada!!!! Mi grandad was an immigrant from Ireland and he married a native lass

I think lots of folks cannot begin to understand what it's like to grow up with seriously insane and/or Irish parents, one of whom was usually gone missing at any given time while the other one fed you snot colored vegetables- I didn't know broccoli was supposed to be green until I went to jail, and WHAT a relief THAT was! Pancakes you ate with a dull spoon rather than drank from a broken bit of crockery? Heaven on earth it was! Mind you, my parents weren't detectibly Irish until they were in the bag- then it was jigs that broke every lamp in the room and an accent that made no sense at all. And then the teeth, my god, the teeth- we didn't celebrate the usual "normal" holidays because more often than not the latest harrowing toothache overshadowed even Christmas (although I suspect that had more to do with not wasting the drinking money on gifts and instead unwrapping stuff from my brother's room as they unwrapped stuff pinched from me and my sister's room and then done in reverse the following year and by then the shoes never fit anymore)... ah, but I've gone on too long...

How enjoyable to see comedy none Woke absolutely brilliant are you going to ever do liverpool l will be first at door

I just thought my parents were practice wrestling 🤷🏻‍♀️

My parents (married 1961) were proudly once a week people. Sunday afternoons after our big lunch. And I never once knew it. My mother told me decades later, "Your father is and was a once-a-week man".

The way he describes his mother, was the way my mother was. She was always threatening to kill me ("I. Bought you in this world, I can take you out!") Always threatening to send me away! nice one day, mean, the next. For years, I tried to figure out, if she was just mean, for no particular reason, or just Irish! I have no desire. ever, to visit Ireland. The people I associate with, are of Irish descent, so they can't be avoided. I am angry, but I can't deny my Irish heritage. My dad was Irish & Scottish. Irish people strike me as mean & sarcastic. But this is the hand of cards God delt me. I can't hide behind other races (friends), so I deal with it.

FfsThe amount of snowflakes in the comments is worrying. It's a fuckin comedy show. Thx for the laughs tommy my mother was the same I'm 38 now and when I bring my kids down to see her she still gives out to me. My kids find it hilarious. Shes so nice to them tho lol. I wouldn't change her for the world.

Ha, ha officer I don't know him.

A handsome man Tommy. And very intelligent.

Lol. Parenting was different years ago. Kids weren't shooting each other then, either. Kids weren't coddled much to not at all. Lol M arr
