Bill Hicks has been dead for 25 years today.

Makes me feel old.

I wish Bill could come back for one night to tell 2019 to GTFOH, right now!

Here’s the problem. “These days,” says Petts, “if an angry white guy stands in front of an audience spouting his opinions like they’re 100% fact, people will be quite alarmed.” In the 90s, that was standup’s most romanticised mode. Today – in an era much more alert to privilege, gender and cultural politics – it’s not such a good look, especially after Louis CK’s behaviour. To Petts, who is the co-founder of queer comedy collective The Lol Word, Hicks is “like mansplaining from start to finish. And we’re a bit bored nowadays of that.”

. . .

There’s more. “He kicks down an awful lot. The fall people are always women, gay people, Iraqis. His routines deliver devastating one-liners to members of the hospitality industry.” Take the famous “What are you reading for?” routine, in which Hicks recalls being asked this question by a waffle waitress, who becomes the butt of the joke. The problem, says Oldham, is that Hicks is quick to criticise Americans, society, the government, but seldom himself. “Something that’s truly radical needs to take a look at itself.”

Fuck 2019.

At least the kicking down part is right about Hicks but what the hell direction was Seinfeld kicking in' and why were they so far up his ass? The lack of self awareness on the taking one's self too seriously tip is hilarious and frightening at the same time.

Louis C.K. gets standing ovation for surprise set, but social media is quick to boo him: 'A remorseless charlatan'

People are still not ready for the return of Louis C.K.

The 51-year-old comedian, whose career was abruptly halted by #MeToo allegations, made a surprise appearance this week at Skankfest, a three-day comedy festival in Brooklyn. The crowd, upon hearing his name, reportedly gave him a standing ovation.

Video of the moment has been circulating on social media via a clip from fellow comedian Luis J. Gomez, a festival promoter, who wrote, “Had to be there.” It showed the shocked audience screaming, cheering and, yes, standing as he made his way on the stage.

The only people complaining are screeching harpy non-comedians trying to gather clap-ter and notoriety among the resistance set.

People who are normal/comedy fans are glad to see him back.

One cunt attacked the Legion of Skank management saying that Louis being there created an "unsafe working environment"

He really should just hang dong and tell them to fuck themselves.

Yeah. Funny that Louis and Co had no idea about the depth of SJW hatred regarding Milo. Talk about being red pilled......
