This section and also the next and final section on my website are about this other model building I have completed on Sunday the 30th of June 2024 called 'The Beagle & Acolyte Eight Snack Bars Tower & Entertainment Pub'. Starting in the next paragraph below this one is how I came to making it.

 

In late May 2024, I ordered for myself 22 stand-up comedy DVDs that had been released over the course of the 2010s where you see the audience being filmed, not to watch, but to cut up the discs for them and put them inside this used squash bottle and roll up the covers for the DVDs and put them inside the used squash bottle as well and also fill the bottle up with water. This is just me being truthful here, and this won't have happened so much in the late 2000s when I got into watching stand-up comedy DVDs and getting them as Christmas presents and birthday presents, but I now associate coming across young audience members bring filmed close up at stand-up comedy shows that will have been filmed for DVD or for NextUp Comedy with being traumatised by negative outside influences that will have been of a formidable onslaught to my senses regardless of whether I will have had anything to do with those things or not. If I didn’t have so much to put up with over the course of the 2010s, that probably wouldn’t have been the case. Having said that, I’ve never really liked coming across young audience members being filmed close up at stand-up comedy shows, no offence to any of them though. I didn’t watch stand-up comedy DVDs to come across young audience members and be forced by my own mind to memorise their faces without wanting to regardless of whether I will have come across them deliberately or by accident.

 

On top of being forced to associate coming across young audience members being filmed with things that would upset me by hurting my ears for example, if ever I come across a young audience member being filmed close up at a stand-up comedy show, as a result of a lot of things that upset me over the 2010s, I am now forced to picture in my mind that precise young audience member being angry and horrible without wanting to. I am even forced to picture in my head young audience members screaming and crying if ever I hear the sound of a crying child, and I am also forced by my own mind to repeat that exact screaming and crying noise in my head without wanting to. I have never used the website for 'NextUp Comedy', and quite frankly I’m not taking any chances by using it for watching stand-up comedy shows on for fear that I am going to slip up again and I’ll have any young audience members in my head that will have been filmed at stand-up comedy shows that will have been filmed for ‘NextUp Comedy’. I’m not even going to listen to audio CDs of stand-up comedians’ live shows, and that’s because I personally find it difficult to relate to the things that the comedians tend to talk about.

 

I think my enjoyment of watching stand-up comedy is sort of crash and burn really in that respect. The love of it really went out of me. I’m just glad things are a lot better for my Mum and I now seeing as the 2010s were a difficult time for me as a result of a lot of things that upset me in that time. I don’t really miss watching stand-up comedy on account of me personally not finding much of what the comedians tend to talk about in their routines very funny. Apart from Billy Connolly’s live comedy and Ross Noble’s live comedy, it’s out with me watching other comedian’s live comedy for fear that once again I’m going to accidentally come across any young audience members being filmed and being forced to do negative things with that face without wanting to such as imagine him or her being angry and horrible or screaming and crying like a young child. I think my dislike for coming across young audience members being filmed has worsened for me overtime because of what the 2010s were like for me. It’s not seeing the audience laughing that’s the problem because it is the audience that causes the atmosphere at a stand-up comedy show, or at any show for that matter, it’s just that I would be forced by my own mind to do negative things with faces of young audience members being filmed close up despite them laughing. It’s not seeing the older audience members as well that’s part of the problem because their faces don’t seem to stick in my mind like the younger ones will have done.

 

In about 2010 whenever even by accident I came across a young audience member laughing and being filmed close up on stand-up comedy DVDs, I wasn’t forced by my own mind at the time to do negative things with that face, I was still able to picture that young audience member in my head laughing and having a good time. If I remember rightly, it was around early 2011 when this long and protracted series of little events had begun and had mounted up for me over the rest of the decade. There was an awful lot of things that upset me between late 2010 when I still used to be able to enjoy watching stand-up comedy on DVD, more and more stand-up comedy DVDs being released over the rest of the 2010s, and the end of the decade when stand-up comedy DVDs stopped being released around Christmastime. It would take me far too long to mention what every one of those little things were and would also be too painful for me to explain to anyone what they all were, even in writing. As I say it’s all finished now. Having got into watching stand-up comedy in around the first half of 2008, it was from Christmas of that year that I had been getting stand-up comedy DVDs as Christmas presents and birthday presents, the last lot of which I got for my 30th birthday in 2017.

 

Since Christmas of that year, I have been getting Amazon vouchers as presents. I feel it’s much better for me getting those instead because I can always choose what I want to order for myself on Amazon. Anyway, in the process of me watching stand-up comedy DVDs from Christmas 2008 onwards, I had came across so many faces of young audience members being filmed without really needing to, and I think that’s what resulted in me developing a dislike for coming across them being filmed in around the autumn of 2012. As I say, it’s not seeing them laughing that’s part of the problem. Maybe I should have stopped getting stand-up comedy DVDs in late 2012 rather than in 2017 when I did stop getting them, but what else could I have had for my previous Christmas lists and birthday lists? The main things I had on those lists were stand-up comedy DVDs, plus, more and more stand-up comedy DVDs were being released over the course of the 2010s where you see the audience being filmed, so as well as more and more things having upset me over that decade, I will have been able to come across more and more audience members being filmed and be forced to memorise the younger ones regardless of whether I will have come across them deliberately or by accident.

 

To try and explain it a little better, with each single little thing that will have upset me each year, there will have been more and more new young audience members from previous stand-up comedy DVDs each year for me to be forced by my own mind to without wanting to picture in my head being horrible and not very nice. Because I actually now really hate coming across young audience members being filmed at stand-up comedy shows, and no offence to any of them whatsoever, I might as well say that I would create my own parallel universe where every single young audience member that will have been from 2010 to 2029 filmed close up at every single show that will have been filmed for DVD and for 'NextUp Comedy', and even for Live At The Apollo have two sinks in their bathrooms. They every day brush their teeth in the left sink, and in the right one, mainly cry. This is inspired by the stand-up comedian Simon Amstell having said on his first live DVD called 'Do Nothing' which was filmed and released back in 2010 that he does exactly that.

 

Also, I ordered myself a packet of 25 blank CDs for making my own music CDs. They arrived in the post on Thursday the 6th of June 2024, and I made 21 music CDs that now come in 21 of the 22 used DVD cases. The other DVD case was slightly broken, and so I cut it up and the plastic bit that protected the cover, after which I put every single cut up bit of the case and plastic bit inside this used squash bottle along with the DVD cover rolled up. And please don't think of this as me playing some monstrous God cutting up all the young audience members that will have been filmed close up at various stand-up comedy shows that will have been filmed for DVD over the 2010s, I'm sorry, I will not have that. Nothing can save the 2010s for me, I'm afraid I'm the kind of person that hates that decade. I know I did have some nice times over that decade, but it just wasn't enough to get me by without being forced by my own mind to memorise so many negative outside influences without wanting to regardless of whether I will have come across those things by accident or on purpose.

 

For me to go from really enjoying watching stand-up comedy on DVD or online to really disliking watching it for reasons having been explained in this section maybe a crying shame, but I'm better off staying away from watching stand-up comedy permanently if the problem I have with coming across young audience members being filmed close up is going to remain with me for the rest of my life. Anyway, after all 22 of the stand-up comedy DVDs I ordered for myself had arrived in June 2024, again I cut up all the discs for them and put them inside the used squash bottle along with all 22 of the DVD covers rolled up, after which I filled the bottle up with water and put the light on firmly and tightly so that the bottle wouldn't leak, after which I rolled the bottle up with kitchen paper and sellotape; I used up two whole rolls of kitchen paper as well as two whole rolls of sellotape on this model building which as I say is called 'The Beagle & Acolyte Eight Snack Bars Tower & Entertainment Pub'. The name is a homage to Charles Darwin's book The Voyage Of The Beagle, and former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett's debut solo album Voyage Of The Acolyte.

 

Also, I shook the model building in the rocking motion non stop to 20 songs 10 on YouTube on Friday the 5th of July 2024, and the other 10 on Windows Media Player on Tuesday the 5th of November 2024. The first 10 are by John Lennon and the other 10 are by Paul McCartney and Wings, apart from the 13th and 18th songs which are by Paul McCartney just on his own. I shook the model building to the 20 songs so that the 22 DVD covers inside it will have disintegrated in the water, which I should think they well and truly are now, and had possibly been even to the first one of them. Below this paragraph is a list of what the 20 songs were that I rockingly shook the model building to on the 5th of July 2024 and on the 5th of November 2024 respectively:

 

1. John Lennon - Imagine

2. John Lennon - Instant Karma

3. John Lennon - Mother

4. John Lennon - Jealous Guy

5. John Lennon - Power To The People

6. John Lennon - Cold Turkey

7. John Lennon - Love

8. John Lennon - Mind Games

9. John Lennon - Whatever Gets You Thru The Night

10. John Lennon - #9 Dream

11. Paul McCartney and Wings - Listen To What The Man Said

12. Paul McCartney and Wings - Band On The Run

13. Paul McCartney - Another Day

14. Paul McCartney and Wings - Live And Let Die

15. Paul McCartney and Wings - Jet

16. Paul McCartney and Wings - My Love

17. Paul McCartney and Wings - Silly Love Songs

18. Paul McCartney - Pipes Of Peace

19. Paul McCartney and Wings - C Moon

20. Paul McCartney and Wings - Hi Hi Hi

 

There were ten other songs that I shook 'The Beagle & Acolyte Eight Snack Bars & Entertainment Pub' to after I rockingly shook it to the first ten songs mentioned in the list above and before I did the same thing with it to the other ten songs in the list above. Those ten other songs will be mentioned in the next and final section of this website, but before that, I'm going to end this penultimate section on my website by lengthy confirming that because a lot of things had happened over the 2010s and culminated into it being such a terrible decade for me, and I sincerely apologise to any comedian of today and the future should they read this bit on my website (this bit has been added to it in February 2025 and has been updated in March 2025), I want to manage to avoid every single reference to every single stand-up comedian that emerges in the second half of the 2020s and beyond, as well as every single stand-up comedy show that gets recorded and released for any service in the second half of the 2020s and beyond because that's how much I dislike stand-up comedy on top of me not really being able to relate to a lot of the things that stand-up comedians tend to talk about in their routines.

 

I'm certainly not trying to have stand-up comedy being permanently eradicated from the world and it is obviously still enjoyable, in which case fair play to all the stand-up comedy fans of today and the future, especially those who use the NextUp Comedy website, I just don't want anyone to involve me into watching any stand-up comedy of today or the future for reasons already explained. Although as you can see there is a link to the Wikipedia page for 'NextUp Comedy' in this paragraph for anyone who reads this bit on my website should they want to click on it and find out more about it, I won't be clicking on it myself because once again I don't want to know about any stand-up comedians of today and the future, once again, no offence at all to any of them. I also want to put all the stand-up comedy shows that have been filmed for DVD in the past where you see the audience being filmed for the very same reason, no matter how different they will have looked now or in the future.

 

Once again, it's just the young audience members that I have a problem with coming across and not the older audience members as well. The only comedians I am sticking to watching on DVD are Billy Connolly and Ross Noble because you don't see the audience being filmed at their recorded stand-up comedy shows. Billy Connolly retired from stand-up comedy back in 2018 as mentioned on this website earlier on, and Ross Noble is not releasing any more DVDs of his recorded material either and is now mainly releasing shows of his for various on-demand services now. Despite having taken to his art now, Billy Connolly will probably always be remembered as a comedian, and having had been a top comedian, he is still hugely enjoyable for me to watch on DVD as well as for many other people probably. Can I just point out, I do know that a lot of what is being said in the last six paragraphs of this section including this one are not so much about me having been making model buildings out of used squash bottles.

 

As well as me wanting to put all the other comedians' stand-up comedy shows in the past that have been released on DVD, again for reasons already explained, I expect a lot of Billy Connolly's material will eventually become dated despite possibly having been one of the best comedians in the world, but then a lot of old material becomes somewhat dated anyway if I'm not very much mistaken. Because I want to permanently distance myself away from what’s going on in the world of stand-up comedy, I don’t want anyone to involve me in knowing anything about it ever again because once again I don’t want to know anything about any new and upcoming stand-up comedians and their stand-up comedy shows because I prefer not to know about anymore of those shows that get released today or in the future for online-streaming or something if the audience are going to keep being filmed during those shows’ recordings.

 

Again, obviously no offence to any the comedians that emerge in the present day as well as in the future. I just hope it doesn’t sound like I’m trying to come across as a miserabilist by talking about all the things that I want to distance myself away from that goes on in the entertainment business. I think what is helping in making it easy for me is my Mum and I don't watch the telly anymore; we stopped watching television back in 2015. It’s not the comedians that I’d have a major issue with knowing about, it’s just that it would personally mean an awful lot to me if I don’t know anything at all about any of the stand-up comedy shows that get released today or in the future for online-streaming or something because I don’t so much want to have access to watching any of them so that I would be able to come across young audience members being filmed so that I would be forced to memorise their faces. Hopefully it shouldn’t become too problematic for me. I do know that I’d always have the choice not to watch those shows.

 

If I’m not very much mistaken, stand-up comedy is still enjoyable for some people to this day. I just have to be careful when I go into pubs that have got television screens inside them so that I can try hard not to accidentally come across any adverts about new and upcoming comedians and their own stand-up comedy shows that get released for online-streaming or something for reasons already explained in this section. I'm alright with having known about certain other comedians that have been on the circuit for a reasonable amount of time by now, but again I don't want to come across any references at all by accident to any new stand-up comedy shows or any future ones by those comedians for online-streaming, again for reasons already explained in this section.

 

However, if I happen to be in a pub that has got a television screen inside it and I'm with a personal assistant (PA) and I happen to come across an advert or something on that television screen of a new stand-up comedy show being released or a new comedian emerging, and either a customer or a member of staff notices me getting stressed and agitated over having accidentally come across that advert, although I may well manage to explain to that customer or member of staff my reasons for reacting the way I would to any references at all to any comedians or stand-up comedy shows of today, it would really cut me deep if that person thinks that I would want the television to go off on my behalf because it wouldn't so much be on behalf of the other customers in the pub, particularly if they would enjoy watching whatever they want to watch while they're having their own drinks.

 

The main reason I would really fall apart inside by that if it happened is because I feel that it would be the equivalent of me trying to spoil other peoples' enjoyment from watching whatever it is they want to watch despite my reasons for not wanting to come across any adverts at all of a new stand-up comedy show being released. To clear things up, such thing has not happened yet. It's just that if it did happen at any time in the future, it would get added to my repeat list without me wanting it to. Remember what was said in the first section called 'The Way My Brain Works' about my 'Rejection Sensitive Disphoria' and me having voices in my head trying to make me remember certain things having happened that I wish not to remember? Again, I know this part is nothing to do with me having been making model buildings out of used squash bottles.
