    Bill Burr is definitely not average. He takes complicated issues and simplifies them in a compressed comedic form for everyone to enjoy. That is pretty much the definition of being clever.

      You feel like he's been through some shit, doesn't moan about it, has made it, doesn't gloat and has compassion for those in the swamp he hauled himself out of.

      +mrbrockpeters True, but not true for females. Nearly every girl I know has the same answer when you ask what they like to do or if they have any talents. They admit they can't do shit and have no hobbies. Thats actually the number one thing I look for in a woman. They gotta have a talent and a hobby. Doesn't matter what it is. Because I find that if they do, they are funner to be around, they encourage me to do my thing, and overall they seem to be the ones who use their brains. Not a foolproof plan, but it's an observation I made years ago.

    It’s good to have ambitions. What’s not good is when he reaches some of those goals and he’s making it big, then here they come the, “tax the rich” folks and other jealous folks that rip on him saying he’s “privileged” and all that. I personally know some of those people and I gotta say, they could get the most out of life and make something better of themselves if they simply tried harder and set more goals. But either they don’t have the economic libido, or unemployment benefits are more desirable to them, it doesn’t ever stop them from ripping on someone who’s becoming successful. It’s just a drag to everyone around them because they just want to bring them down to their level of lifestyle of muck. Keep striving, set more goals, keep your dick in check, and cheers my friend.
