Bill Hicks (may he rest in peace) was a dim-witted dumbass who had a very limited, childish perspective on life and made rash judgments based on that narrow frame of reference.

But then what makes him so different from so many other libs people here?  Ummm....  never mind.

I know why he's different than conservatives.

He has a first rate sense of humor.

Conservatives think Dane Cook is funny.

He has a heart and it figures into his world view.

Conservatives are congenitally selfish and ruthless.  No heart there.

Man, I can't believe it's been almost 17 years since Hicks died.

So I'm a selfish, ruthless, heartless bastard?  You say that like it's a bad thing?  Hahaha.

But seriously...  Hicks was never really funny!  Maybe "dumbass" was a bit harsh...  I was in a pissy mood when I posted that last night.  But...  I mean he made biting, incisive social commentary but he never really made me laugh.  I'll tell you who's funny if we're talking about a first-rate sense of humor...  Umm Brian Regan comes to mind...  HE makes me laugh.  But Hicks never really made me laugh, he just really more tried to get people to think.

His last recorded show was pretty damn funny.

I tell ya, I've been watching comedy shows for many, many years and only recently came across some material from Bill. Amazing. He was truly ahead of his time. I mean, he was talking about this stuff back in the late 80s early 90s.

Just amazing to watch.
