[@climberguy10001]

As a life long fan of comedy, I have to say Bill saved me. I was going through a rough time and I turned to humor and the ability to see reality through a comedic view. Bill’s “Im sorry you feel that way” is in my opinion comedic perfection. the jokes are amazing and his ability to work the audience was great. Bill… i wanna say thank you for keeping my head in the best space it could be at the time, in the space of laughter, comedy, and happiness. Ive seen all your stuff, and will be a fan till my end. All the best Bill and thank you again. PS.. SNL was pure GOLD!!

[@clicheguevara5282]

I'm a musician and grew up in a whole family of musicians. I have a deep connection to music but I've honestly never said "This band saved my life" or "This song got me through dark times". I definitely feel that way about comedy though.. I owe more to comedians than I do my music idols. Lol

bill burr is a legend. man went largely unnoticed for most of his career and just blew up in the last few years despite him being consistently funny his whole career. he has put in the time, done the hard work and got rewarded for it in the end. also a truly independent thinker, he doesnt go all in on the culture war crap or chase an audience like other weaker comics have after covid. great dude

Long live Billy Burr. I can paraphrase the line on O&A that made me fall in love. I'm not giving context. "Hey! Which one of those keys open up the door to your forgotten dreams." And then at some point, I flew in to Columbus and saw him live. It was years ago. So much material I hadn't heard, and haven't heard since. "If I just drive home... nothin... Just a tiny turn of the wheel, and everyone knows my name."

Stick shift went away in the US because people want automatics. They don't care about real driving, just stare at their phones while speeding in a stupid, deadly 5000lb SUV they don't need.

​@kennethgross3 Also Europe tends to have more robust public transportation. Cars are much more of a necessity it the US so car culture is geared around convenience of getting point A to point B. It doesn't really make sense to choose a manual if you're not an enthusiast and are just trying to get to work and the grocery store.
