Karl never finished school. He has none of the benefits of education, but also none of the consequences.

I hiked 4 days to Machu Picchu only to see that you could take a bus in less than an hour.

It's accessible if you're not a lazy asshat like I am. I couldn't even hike 4 miles to the waterfalls at Big Tree.

4.0 miles is approx. 36,205.71 Bananas. (beep boop ima bot)

totally agree. hook a head to a bunch of wires and say look what we can do with science.

I would enjoy this show so much more without Gervais being in it.

Agreed. I tried watching the first episode but couldn't stand the deliberate fucking with karl

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 4

I wouldn't mind him being in it if he didn't use it as a platform for his own views and what he thinks is right. Like in the original (1/2)

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

radio shows and podcasts, he'll ask Karl something and then interrupt with his own opinion and then proceed to insult until Karl gives up.

Thanks, will do - I actually already downloaded them, but for now just put it off in hope of something I might have missed on tv.

It has been said that Karl is what you get if you maxed out wisdom on a character while leaving intelligence at zero.

That makes as much sense as it doesn't...+1

Yep. I think Ricky Gervais said he had the mind of a genius and the brain of an idiot.

Wait ... that makes sense ... carry on.

Like how priests offer words of wisdom but don't believe in science...

There have been many scientist priests actually. If I'm not mistaken the big bang theory was first proposes by a priest.

That stat combination Is that of someone that doesn't study, doesn't *care* to study and Isn't a fast learner, but has 1000% Common sense.

But he is capable of a lot. Not rockets ince of course. But don't let him get started about weird and the obscure. He loves a lot of weird

Who does know rockets ince, though?

I haven't even watched the film. That's just my knowledge from D&D - High wis low Int Is somsone with great instincts and great common sense

It's not a movie but series of genius humor and hardcore truths xD

A bit like an idiot savant. Is the only one able to activate an ancient machine because it instinctively makes sense. Not study/luck/etc

Like "I just pushed the button that looked big and important to turn it on" while everyone is discussing power buttons placements elsewhere.

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Well, not zero... Any creature with zero intelligence is essentially comatose.

8 years ago | Likes 11 Dislikes 7

I think intelligence is learned facts/social behavior but not innate/instinctual drives. So 0 INT would be like a feral wolf-boy.

An actual wolf has 3 INT though.

In most D&D rulesets, a 0 in a mental stat will turn you into a veg, and a 0 in a physical stat will outright kill you.

3.5 D&D: 0 Str = falls to ground helpless, 0 Dex = Paralysis, 0 Con = Dead, 0 Int/Wis/Cha = Unconscious.

What about 0 in charisma

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

Charisma is personal force, strength of personality. Zero Charisma would more less be depression. So unable to be yourself that you sleep

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

it's the opposite. intelligence is the ability to comprehend, knowledge is facts. karl has plenty of intelligence

Karl Pilkington surprisingly always has a point. Especially on An Idiot Abroad, what is where this is from.

Carl has a logic about him but his premises are naive, immature and superstitious resulting in extremely funny, insane conclusions.

8 years ago | Likes 40 Dislikes 0

Very scripted though. Helps when you have stephen merchant helping you too.

Watch their podcast...you'll see how Karl is exactly like that if not even more so

correct

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It drove me nuts to watch, because Stephen said they were sending him out to broaden his horizons, and Karl really tried every place he +

8 years ago | Likes 18 Dislikes 0

was sent. He really wanted to learn and experience, with a few restrictions. And Stephan and Ricky just delighted in making it terrible.

8 years ago | Likes 20 Dislikes 0

Yes, but this is the point of the show.

8 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 0

They even say in the intro of every episode 'we want him to hate it'

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Yeah but the rest of the show he just complains constantly about the beautiful exotic place he is in like its a chore

8 years ago | Likes 27 Dislikes 4

Partially because that's him, and he's also way out of his comfort zone. With the added issue of Steve and Ricky constantly fucking with him

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

thats why its funny

You should check out the Moaning of Life. No Ricky Gervais winding him up. He travels around and actually has fun. So much better

Ricky and Karl is a strange relationship. Karl needed him but is better without him.

Ricky is a bully.. always has been even before he met Karl.

Good idea. I loved An Idiot Abroad, but it made Ricky seem like such an asshole.

The bigger challenge would be making Ricky not seem like an asshole.

That's because, in part, he is. Bit they are also great friends.
