Any other Bill Hicks fans out there? By far the best and most accessible comedian/philosopher to walk the earth imo... I have a huge poster of him on my wall

Relentless is brilliant and I've listened to a bit of Rant in E Minor. Bill Hicks is awesome. Does anyone know any comedians like him?

"People suck, and that's my contention. I can prove it on a scratch of paper with a pen. Give me a ****ing Etch-a-sketch, I'll do it in three minutes. The proof, the fact, the factorum. I'll show my work, case closed. I'm tired of this back-slapping "aren't humanity neat?" bull****. We're a virus with shoes, okay?"

Well, older curmudgeony Carlin was very similar but I'd bet you already knew that as he was very famous.

yeah rant in e minor's cool... the recordings are from after he was diagnosed with cancer so he knew he was dying at the time it was recorded, thats why it's an intense album

I love what he said about the pro life anti abortionists:

"Instead of blocking med clinics, link arms and block cemeteries. Let's see how f*cking committed you are!"

Bill Hicks was hilarious. Sadly, he died way too young (died in his early 30s of cancer).

But, to paraphrase The Man himself, "I WANT MY COMEDIANS DEAD!".

I dunno...philosopher is a bit a stretch, but he was a damn good comedian

I liked a lot of his stuff, and then some of it not so much.
