It's all about money, not freedom. You think you're free? Try going somewhere without money.

Set up a silly little Bill Hicks quotes account on Twitter years ago before it was a hellhole. It became popular and long story short I ended up being invited to NYC for the premiere of the Bill Hicks movie and meeting his family who I am still in touch with and have met again since. Lovely people.

There is a current trend in the UK to put St George flags and Union Jacks on houses and bridges, I don’t agree with why this. To me being proud of where you come from is celebrating where your parents fucked! @billhicksrip.bsky.social @heisholt.bsky.social can you explain this in Huddersfield?? πŸ˜‚

There is a third point of view on the gun control issue - those who I refer to as…The Victims….but they remain strangely silent.

Nobody ever died for a flag.

They died for freedom....the freedom also to burn the fucking flag, okay.

What a hard sell that must have been for John Major. "John? George Bush. Good. We've got disgruntled masses, gettin' really bored here.

How about a little fireworks? Well, let's look through the Rolodex! Noriega? Nah, got him. Oh here's one: Saddam Hussein! That'll look good.

I have something to tell you non-smokers that I know for a fact that you don't know, and I feel it's my duty to pass on information at all times. Ready?.......Non-smokers die every day

I'm sorry, but this may be the funniest Facebook AI slop I have ever seen. Bury me sideways in my coffin, brother. Let my dog see

There'll be two funerals that day. I can see my mom going through my stuff. "Look, honey, here's Bill when he was a Cub scout. Look at how cute my baby is. His little short pants, his little hat. Look how cute my baby was. I wonder what's in this box over here.

One of my big fears is I'm gonna die and my parents are gonna come to clean out my apartment and find that porno wing I've been adding to for years.

I actually did that joke in Alabama, right. These three rednecks met me after the show. "Hey, buddy. Come here. Hey, Mr. Comedian. Come here. Hey buddy, we're Christians. We don't like what you said" - I said "then forgive me".

You know what causes sexual thoughts? I'm gonna clear the air for you tonight. Here's what causes sexual thoughts: having a dick.

They're putting the cart before the horse on this pornography issue. Playboy doesn't cause sexual thoughts. Sexual thoughts exist and, therefore, there is Playboy. Do you see?

I find it ironic that people who are against sexual thoughts are generally these fundamentalist Christians who also believe you should be fruitful and multiply.

Here's the commercial they'd like to do, if they could. The ultimate television commercial and we might see it one day yet: Here's the woman's face; beautiful. Camera pulls back; naked breasts. Camera pulls back; totally naked, legs apart, fingers right here...and it just says "Drink Coke!"
