funny clever smart
Ed, I see you're out drinking again. What's the occasion? I was sober.
christian fun gun
I'm a fan of Bill Hicks. He did things that no other stand up did at the time. He was making fun of religion, at that time it was a lot harder to say those things in the States than it was here. To slag off Christianity and fundamentalist Christians, and to be pro drugs and anti gun in the deep south, that's a big ask. And he did that and made it funny. Bill Hicks was able to say things that he really thought, and he managed to make those thoughts funny without a care if it antagonised people.
suicide book reading
No one ever comitted suicide while reading a good book, but many have tried while trying to write one.
