I think the love-hate is fundamental. Everyone hates reality television, and everyone's watching it. Everyone hates Facebook, and everyone is on it.

I do think that stand-up comedy in general heavily favors masculinity and so I like to act a little feminine onstage.

Image
I don't want to try to recreate for no reason. Like, me in my bedroom, singing songs to a camera was a special thing that was at that time in my life. But I'm just not that kid. I like the format of it, but I want to be able to release things for free.

Drugs kill, just like cancer. So don't smoke... tumors.

Image
Nothing's true that I say, because I don't really want to say anything. I don't think my life's that cool, and I don't think my opinion's that valid. They're just silly jokes. Usually I just take a topic that isn't funny at all, like Shakespeare, and work backwards. I just try to find an unfunny subject.

I misdirect the audience, so they have no idea where they are or who they're listening to.

People do complain about the way I act on stage... They think on stage I act too arrogant, too self-obsessed, solecistic, self-contained, synonyms.

Humour is often linked to shared experience. Like, a guy gets up and says, Have you noticed public restrooms have really inefficient hand-dryers? Oh my God, yes I have, hahaha, really good point, they should... fix that. It's good to know that somebody finally gets me!

I always wanted to be a comedian and actor. I basically stumbled into the music medium, though. I'm OK, but that's about it. I like to think I'm good enough not to negatively affect the performance.

Comedy is very strange to me and I don't fully understand it's purpose or function.
Bo Burnham
Image
Postmodern comedy doesn't work well with very old audiences, because it's making fun of the comedy they enjoy.
Bo Burnham
Image
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.

I get more ass than a giant donkey stable.

The thing is, I was on YouTube like the golden era, I think. Before ads came in, it was really cool back then.

Squaring numbers are just like women. If they're under thirteen, just do them in your head.

The strange thing with Wikipedia is that the first article that ever gets written about you will define your Wikipedia page forever.

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.

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.

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.

When I tried to hit puberty I swung and I missed.
