"Cut the comedy" = Ngưng làm trò hề, đùa cợt, ngớ ngẩn hoặc dừng ngay mấy trò lừa bịp.

Ví dụ
If David Spade could cut the comedy and take on a serious role, he'd definitely be a contender. Our most serious choice for Duane would be Ryan Reynolds.

What to expect from the full moon effect: you’re often cast in the role of the class clown or chief entertainer, using wit, wisdom – or gossip – to keep your audience enthralled (mê hoặc, mê mệt) and to fulfil your hunger for attention. But this Leo full moon suggests that it may be time to cut the comedy and work on being taken more seriously. Going too far with humour or spilling too many secrets could backfire during this time of heightened emotions, so know when to speak up and when to hold back. Completing a presentation, exam or written project (perhaps a blog or your life story) that has a bit of star quality about it is also likely now.

Odekro’s report is inundated (tràn ngập) with a list of impeachable parliamentarians yet the laws are lax. Sometimes I lay the blame squarely on ourselves for not mounting series of nationwide demonstration against the yearly meaningless ex-gratia (việc trả bồi thường không có quy định trong hợp đồng) paid to members of parliament. Why wouldn’t they become Oliver twists? For crying out loud, the government has recently secured a loan facility to build Eastern Corridor road. If we were that rich, would we have borrowed for that capital intensive project, bearing in mind we would be paying interests? Parliamentarians are no longer funny. They should cut the comedy!
