Burr is so great. The best is how he handles the umcomfortability.

I laughed . Several times.

He was so great last night. It’s been a while since I’ve heard a comedian say what comedians could get away with forever. Downvote away but if a comedian isn’t making someone a little offended with his jokes then he isn’t doing it right. That’s what makes them jokes.

Pete Davidson on Weekend Update was really good also

I think a good measure of success is when people from the left and right fringe are screaming their idiot heads off. I’m a fan.

Its a bit ironic 'Cancel culture' is coming after O' Billy Red Face to cancel him.

I wish I could quantify the people who get legitimately upset by this. Do they scream in dark rooms? Do they throw things? Do they curl up in a ball? It seems like mental illness to be outraged over a 50 year old red headed comedian saying some off color jokes for 7 minutes.

Ha, that was pretty funny. Some cringeworthy comments too, but he got to the points he was making which were good.

Pushes on the moron anti-maskers and the moron cancel-culturers. I can dig it.

Thought it was pretty funny, but I am a Bill Maher Democrat, not a "Shaun King" Democrat.

"Plowing ahead...plowing ahead, let's talk white women here, let's talk white women "

He gives exactly zero *****.

People forget Burr was one of the best writers on Chappelle. Chappelle loved him and it’s time for Dave, Bill, and Tosh to keep saying the things others are afraid to say.

That monologue was CLASSIC Burr. Check out the earliest specials on Netflix and last night fits right in.

For all the PC warriors out there, go read his bio on billburr.com... what did they expect when he finishes his hilariously tongue-in-cheek about me section with “ He tends to go with his first thought, because reading makes him sleepy”?!?

He is the best standup going nowadays. Doesn’t work clean, but isn’t afraid to tell anyone (and everyone) what he thinks. Highly recommend you check out his specials. The most recent, “Paper Tiger”, was fantastic and will have you in stitches.

Also give the Bob Saget Podcast with him as the guest. It’s hilarious.

[The Peeper]

I wasn't offended at all by any of it, but I didn't laugh either

 

[MarkDallas]

So I brought this up a few weeks ago. Burr really turned me off with his appearance on Theo Von's podcast. Acted like he was too good to be there and just made an *** of himself. I always thought of Burr as grounded, man of the people.

My ranking of current comedians:

1) Dave Chappellle
2) Bill Burr
3) Everyone else

Dave and Bill are doing their best to fight off the Woke Mob and Cancel Culture. They’ve tried to go after Dave but he’s remained unscathed. Also, I think they’re afraid to go after Dave for reasons that don’t apply to Bill. I don’t think they’ll win, but Dave and Bill have to keep up the good fight.

Paper Tiger was hilarious. He might actually give less than no *****.

THANKS! I enjoyed that. I haven't watched SNL since forever. I was the humorless version of all the national news outlets with skits. It needs more cowbell. I hope Alysa Milano was watching the white women segment.

Paper Tiger was one of the best stand ups in the past 5 years. If you haven’t watched it you need to

I didn’t find any of it cringeworthy which is the problem with wokes - they’re offended by the truth

Ok, good to know.

Direct me to some Theo stand up specials. No sarcasterisks.

I don't know much about his generation of comics, except that a lot of them have podcasts. Burr was funny and busting his *** long before podcasts were a thing. He's also very self deprecating. On the show in question it felt like Theo thought he was an equal & was trying to bait him into controversy.
