Bill Hicks is the AWESOME
« on: October 19, 2010, 08:00:51 AM »
Am preparing an article re same but decided to go ahead and start to see if there's any Hicks fans out there (or non-fans who wish to contest my assertion).

I'm not a HUGE fan, but I like his stuff.

What's your assertion??

i aggree w nearly everything he rants, but
i think hes sortof.. "made for americans"
not strictly and entirely, but it seems very tailormade for a predominantly religious society

sometimes he gets a bit too preachy

my favorite bits of his are the "situational" bits, about family life, his dad, growing up, etc
but those are sortof "drowned" by his political stuff.

That shouldn't preclude him from running for office though.

A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

My brain is both uninhibited and uninhabited.

I'd go so far as to draw parallels to Jesus (or joshua/yeshua, wo'eva).

Not the same kind of comedy. No satire.
