real thinking scary
I'm interested in taboos for certain reasons. They can dramatise things and they're scary, and they're important to think about. I'm also wary about the fact that if you don't proceed with caution and understand what you're doing, you understand these things are realities that you're dealing with, they're real things.
theory
Was Einstein's theory good? Relatively.
thinking rights feminist
I don't like calling myself a "feminist" only because I don't think I've done anything active enough to call myself one. It'd be like calling myself a civil rights activist just because I'm not racist.
bipolar bears mets
I met a bipolar bear. He laughed, cried, then wanted a threesome.
funny beautiful distance
In the distance, Bo saw a fairy. A fairy so beautiful that he felt proud of being called one in highschool.
hoe feminist knows
Bitches and hoes don't exist because the hoes know Bo's a feminist.
rap dark thinking
I've found, across the board, that comedians have been very respectful and kind to me. And that seems to stem from the fact that they are just respectful and kind people in general. Comedians get a bad rap for being dark and anti-social I think.
college comedy going-to-college
I chose to do comedy instead of going to college.
down-and firsts cameras
My first concern is that when you go to a show, you should be present. It's much more exciting to put the camera down and lose yourself in it.
song dirty kids
I'm not a grown up until everybody realises I'm a grown up. When everyone remembers me as the dirty kid singing little songs I am the dirty little kid.
annoying sociopath
I like to call everyone that I find slightly annoying a 'sociopath.'
dream college eight
I worked eight hours a day just so I could get into the college of my dreams and say that I got in - and I never went.
asian persons ifs
Even if he is your friend, never, ever call an Asian person.
thinking worry people
I think comedy has a range, with multiple peaks in different areas. It's like trying to compare Beethoven and the Beatles. Sometimes I hear from people, 'I think you try too hard in your comedy.' And that's what I worry about.
