"should i be joking at a time like this?" hits way too hard when you cope with laughter

[@LordGeneralButtoms6969]

Especially when you watch "Goodbye" where he starts doubting that comedy is alright at that time

[@Pfhorrest]

I never realized that I cope with laughter (and probably would have denied it) until Jan 6th when I just couldn't help laughing my ass off all day at the absurdity of it all, and my now-wife was very concerned that I wasn't taking it nearly seriously enough, and now looking back on it in retrospect I feel surprised at myself for not taking it seriously, and realize I was coping with laughter.

This can also be interpreted differently. This is is one of the best things about Bo's comedy, his jokes are largely down to interpretation and can be understood in multiple ways.

0:31 Love how Bo Burnham takes the line "What the f*ck is going on" from a genuine question, to one he adds a cutesy "um" before it, and then treats it like a comedic punchline, before adding in a laughtrack. It's just one example of how he's constantly switching between being genuinely concerned to focusing on putting on the act and trying to get paid and attention.

[@noone3305]

‘cause it’s kind of a blueprint for a common corny joke, like: “x, y and z walk into a bar and do this that and whatever” and he’s just making fun of that kinda joke. “oh nothing happened i just saved him a seat”

[@DanteYewToob]

I think everyone has this wrong. This is Bo Burnham. The joke if the whole song is some white guy trying to “fix the world” with comedy. So the joke about saving a seat is making fun of how everyone thinks over political correctness will actually solve anything. Policing comedy and “sanitizing” jokes isn’t how you do true equality and inclusion… jokes should be safe as long as they’re not directly intended to hurt others. So the point is that it’s a lazy feeble effort to save the world through fake political correctness because that’s easier than actually addressing the real problems. Don’t bother facing the roots of actual racism and bigotry, just don’t allow people to make jokes about Jews or people of color. That will fix everything! It’s simultaneously kinda messed up, but also true and thoughtful. Right where Bo lives in his comedy.

Then again, it's possible he designed it that way specifically from the get go. I honestly don't know which would be more impressive.

Only slightly. Average doors are around 80inches in height - the door behind him is slightly smaller than him as shown at the end of the special so it's around maybe 73inches tall. Bo is 196cm (77inches). He looks tall af in most of the musical skits because of camera angle and framing techniques, camera is positioned around the height of his waist and pointing slightly up, this is common in making yourself look taller and guys use it all the time. Perspective comes into play a lot too since the door is quite far back.

The "work montage" in this part made me laugh until I cried the first time I watched it.

W Song, W Special. Bo Burnham makes Vibe Turtle smile (and sob) so much.

Don't you dare underestimate the higher tempo change 2:45 and 5:01

[@kruegerpoolthe13th]

I love the immediate No after he asks if he should give away his money

[@superboyrecordings]

march 2022 and i'm still not over this special

[@xpertd1962]

This has a pre-hiatus bo feel to it

[@Trixiewin]

All the songs put into this EP was amazing.

[@JuliGalang]

"the other stuff" gets me every time

[@Palemagpie]

I'm sorry 🤣 the (Malcolm X (Me) weird Al) Joke fuckin slew me. The man is a master of the visual gag

[@aisuhd]

Theres a typo in the title, its a pronounce *Komdi* read your dictionary kids

[@MacEwan23eh]

It’s a goat song because it literally has everything. Slow build. Euphoric rise. Tempo changes. Goated.

[@beyondgirl178]

I can't believe he thinks he shouldn't tell jokes at a time like this. Now is when we need it the most.

[@emmy_the_nbnd]

Seems appropriate again...

Comedy = Tragedy + Time Time = Money Tragedy = 9/11 Comedy = 9/11 + Money? lol

[@mattasticmattattack8546]

Anthony Jeselnik makes a living off that formula lol

[@tracy9610]

Haha! Syllogisms gone wrong!

[@grabble7605]

I mean...American Dad. Rick & Morty. Future Man. All at one point or another were given money and used it to create episodes about or humorously referencing 9/11, and all are comedies. So...Yes. Comedy = 9/11 + Money. True.

[@PoisonousVector]

it's funny how he thinks he is being sarcastic about healing the world with comedy while he in fact has helped so many people with his work!

[@simonrudduck8726]

Making a literal difference metaphorically makes me laugh EVERY time.😂

Four times the Bo, four times the fun!

[@A_combustible_lemon]

4:16 That harmonizing hit different

[@darienhigh]

The beginning of the song sounds almost like if Depeche Mode wrote comedy

[@michaelringler237]

I almost got too excited when I seen 4 frames thinking it would be another one of your quartet masterpieces like the Disney princess you back in the day. Loved it anyways

[@Izzy-bq1rc]

Wasn’t that Paint? Or did Bo do something like that too
