[iheartscreamcore]

[SuperGeorgian]

Bo , you're retarded :/

[MissWillowWillow]

Bo burnham favorited this!

[1332recordsboise]

He is performing in Boise Idaho tonight and tomorrow

[MusicOfEthxx]

@1332recordsboise Damn! I am in Idaho Falls. Wonder if he is headed this way.

[TheRalphus666]

This guy just fell off the earth

[TwoTekah]

@CiaranMcGarry1 i dont see anybody being offended in the comments...and the crowd wasnt offended at all..... so what the hell are you talking about?

[ulquiorra051597]

*deap breathing*...... creepy

[gibil666]

Who the hell is bo burnham?

[rockboy10798]

bo burnham favorited this!!!!!

[HollymarkProductions]

She said Emo, you should wear your grandfather's tuxedo. So I got a shovel...

[xXTwhizzleXx]

thumbs up if you came here because of bo burnhams favorite



[trixiehodgson95]

thank you hot mama!!! XD

I wish he said that too me.

[mruncommon1]

his heavy breathing is so funny & his timing is perfect

[austinthebookworm5]

as a trombonist, I am hurt. jks

[bumman97]

@austinthebookworm5 i was like holy shit thats bad

[austinthebookworm5]

@bumman97

agreed

[heatbucspies55]

Joke at 2:00 is one of the best ones of all time haha.

So funny.

[commetsmasher]

lol, bo burnham has good taste. This was in his favorites :P

[ThrottleCola]

This man's act is wonderfully weird - not to mention he's hilarious. :D

[CrazyMushroomPeople]

why does he breath so heavily? Is he drunk?

[Jwalter421]

How high/drunk is this guy haha

[MichaelHansenFUN]

@Jwalter421 this is his persona

[Jwalter421]

@MichaelHansenFUN Yes i figured, just being silly! :)

[MichaelHansenFUN]

@Jwalter421 he is allways like this on tv, readio shows, ect...

[MichaelHansenFUN]

@Jwalter421 he never breaks character

[pleasedontask]

wow, he's amazing, he has pitch perfect delivery plus his awkward physicality

[ConanGabe]

18 people got gym credit for high school beatings.

[TheOwlManson]

funny how the name emo gets commonly mistaken with the modern term of emotionally problemed, emo philips was created in the late 70s if i can remember correctly and its funny how much his charaters name has the same persona (that is in a parodied version) of what the term emo means today, funny

[kelcee89]

He kinda freaks me out. I think he's funny though. Just gives me the heebie jeebies.



[kelcee89]

He kinda freaks me out. I think he's funny though. Just gives me the heebie jeebies.

[SombreaFlaco]

Oh bo

[SpaghettiMarinarable]

I...think it's on.....the floor somewhere....

[RoilNoise]

golden!

[bobmitchell7]

1:42 is hilarious

[spudd86]

The mustache is horrifying, I'm glad he got rid of it later.

[Spazaliciouschick]

Have you guys seen Fred trying to do this? He's calling himself Claudio.....I kind of like it.....

[nekonya96]

I am SO going to do the eating out the eyes of a chocolate bunny thing the second Easter comes around!!!

[NFFAisnumber1]

Damn it bo....

[2ndhandsoul]

Master of the paraprosdokian.

[ultenth]

@ecaspden It's not all persona, he has severe autism.

[GreenGearMood]

@ultenth Cite your sources plz.

[NuAddict]

@ultenth Not true

[Catcherintherye11111]

never heard of this guy amazing delivery and akward like manners lol

[oliviacnb]

what the fuck LOL

[spiritjd33]

I laughed and cried at the same time watching this guy

[Topgeneral3070]

ROFL he was HIS  imaginary friend~! xD

[StewieSwan]

This is brilliant

[troubleinrain]

wow i just found out today that bo burnham favourited this video.. and ive alwayssss thought that he reminded me of emo philips weirdd,

[orgixvi3]

It's amazing how he completely captures my real life best friend!

[stephenb109]

I asked for a card and he said "You need to prove that your a citizen of Chicago, hmmmphmhmhppmhmhphh" So I stabbed him...

[billyisnotcake]

3:20 the laugh :D

[jameson63926]

@billyisnotcake Will you hand me that, hot mama? 

[etomocky]

@ecaspden he isnt doing a character. Thats just how he talks. If you have ever seen Home Movies, the cartoon on adult swim, on Cartoon Network, he does a voice of one of the charachters (the school bully). He has also been on the Weird Al show, and other shows... real funny guy.

[lkmhuskee]

saw Emo and Judy Tenuta on a double bill at a place called the Charlie Club in the winter of 1982. South of Chicago in Joliet.

[ThePhishBoss]

Thankyou hot momma

[48loweschevy]

Awesome i think i wet myself.

[crazy360playa]

came here from mahnrubob

[Karnage515]

I bet this guy gets like, ungodly amounts of ass.

[Kozzi42]

I've heard of him all my life, and I finally take the time to look him up. I love Emo Phillips!

[trollhater70s]

He sounds high....

[gingerkid286]

i love how it sounds like hees having a a one big, long orgasm

[sheepdog2c7]

this has been favourited my @mahnrubob ! :D awesome

[aufbakhandleitung]

His jokes are great, but I can't listen to this!

[xxoosweeneytodd]

Wow...comedy has changed. A LOT.

[gamelover37]

0:48

[GenericPurpleTurtle]

what does he say at 4:25? Edepol complex?

[bulletfanmhdan]

@GenericPurpleTurtle "Oedipus Complex", it's a Freudian idea of child attachment where a young boy subconsciously desires his mother and is scared of his father finding out and castrate him. This is through the first ~18 months, until the boy associates with his father. It is considered outdated and overtaken by newer theories with more evidence. Google it to find out more.

[calvinjones]

@GenericPurpleTurtle oedipal i.e relating to oedipus of greek legend and key to Freud's understanding of sexuality

[poetaviolinista]

The Odyssey.

[terracottaheavens]

at the end of the Granspa's tuxedo joke, 1:27 does that lady say "Sick..."?

[TheNo1GublerFan]

so i stabbed him...

[purpleXtofu]

the only emo i <3 you

[iSKATEshut43]

Does he have some form of A.D.D. or A.D.H.D.?

[GenericPurpleTurtle]

@iSKATEshut43 He puts it on.

[PoopSniper]

Emo phillips is the only cool emo :)

[patrickcole117]

@PoopSniper wrong. he is the only LIKEABLE emo.

[Cnupoc]

i think he really has some kind of a mental problem :D he could be schizophrenic =)

[ganttler]

@Cnupoc

He doesn't .This is his character. I met him after a gig a few years ago.He's brilliant.

[behindyourtrouble]

@Cnupoc and ýou actually say that smiling? i wonder who has more of a mental problem, if its him or you, seriously...

[MikuxMew85]

"Well Emo, there's nothing wrong with your head--"

"Guillotine."

[supermanofmen]

the man said "you have to prove youre a citizen of chicago", so i stabbed him

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

@supermanofmen

you should hear the new york variation

[lupischuckle]

Not many people can hold a candle to Emo Phillips in terms of comedic timing, originality, persona and especially, cleverness of writing. A legend.

[Ahoydizzle]

such a funny bloke. Is he like that all the time? 

[rickj37]

I have know about Emo for many years. My fav line is " my brother says hello, hurray for speech therapy."

[skittlesrozanski]

Because i forgot the stroler... LOLZ

[iheartjimothy]

I could play a swell game of rhyme-hopscotch with this fine notwoman.

[pennydesouza]

Just discovered this comedian... this is dynamite - so sharp and entertaining. Glorious!

[pete7wiegard]

i go to Downers Grove North. The school he graduated from

[BlackTarHeroinTiger]

I don't get it, it's like he's goofy or something.

[loneone01]

3:20 THAT LAUGH

[PooPoo2U]

man, sometimes i go the whole day just seeing how long i can talk like emo. it's hard as fuck!

[clintbronson5]

Can tell that Emo was a HUGE fan of Ernie Kovacs/Spike Milligan and Python

[NoahLDiamond]

I loved his old work. His latest stuff isn't as good as this, but this is classic and killer.

[ThelemicMage]

hey zap

[xfactor0693]

this guy is awesome

[Perbear213]

creepiest laugh ever

[missJK92]

"now I know you all may be concerned that I might reproduce" hahaha so funny. Emo is great

[zacharysm148]

@isay8675309: you dumbshit! this guy was born in like the 50s and the term emo wasnt coined until the 80s

[buzzkiller98]

is this what he is like in real life or is it just like a stage act

[xLightLordx]

I think it is a stage act, but I'm not sure.

[Justshutup14]

@xLightLordx it is just the act

[ty56ty65]

This guy is brilliant.Very odd sense of humor that works so well with his delivery

[rwrobp]

SHANNON

[awfulpwn]

haha yes!!! from Home Movies

[rwrobp]

@awfulpwn I found out about emo from home movies.. im glad i did hes hilarious

[isay8675309]

wow...emo....what parent holds a child in his arms and sais "lets name him EMO"

[MultiCoolcat69]

hrs not i character thats just who he is

[redcthulhu]

I know this is a stage act, and this is him in character, but he makes it very convincing, and very funny.

[nalyd09]

Wow, I'm huge comedy enthusiast and I've heard a lot about this guy yet I've never actually watched him. His style is psychotically Shakespearian. I love it! =]]

[GAARAmatt1HUGS1]

lol that guy is fuking funny

[ALXXMaXX]

Wait...does he have a moustache?

[spacecowboy5000]

Just the power of magic marker.

[ALXXMaXX]

@spacecowboy5000 That's what I thought, too. A Magic Marker moustache. Thanks for clearing that up, Maurice.

[HappyGestapo]

funny stuff

[AnarchyItsHere]

he's hilarious...

but is he drink?

[crashtest1012]

No. It's a character he plays.

[Anon1696]

"Feeding him cereal or whatever" is a great one.

[Anon1696]

He plays such a great character.

[RussinTirnaNog]

classic entertainment. No swearing nothing rude, just good clean twisted fun.

[kingskatevideos]

does he have problems

[onyxdaemon]

This is one of the best stand ups EVER.

[jasmineC4C]

He is just the most adorable man ever! I love his humor because you have to be intelligent to get it. Genius!

[TotalKaosE]

@jasmineC4C I guess unintelligent is not getting "I was pushing him through the park, and he was crying. Because I forgot the stroller."

That doesn't take intelligence.

[raybanfandom]

It takes intelligence to make it up.

[intothetopcorrupt]

the kids would c all me names like Pukeface and neo-calvinist

[intothetopcorrupt]

I Love watching this because it literally seems like he's just a drunk homeless guy talking about his life

[AshleygodHarvey]

he's a friggen weirdo but funny as, it was gr8 when he talked about his granfathers tuxedo

[DonkeyDelight]

I'm a big fan of Emo but I couldn't watch all of this because there is a really high frequency noise which gives me a headache, can anyone else hear it?

[Mcrlover2death]

are u a dog? thats b/c its on VHS

[aurexvorshade]

Yeah, that's his voice

[SmittyBaGitty]

very funny!

[TielPearce]

Emo is a genius. I love the library card joke. He is one of my comedic influences. Emo is still touring actually.

[robg71]

Emo is Spike Milligans Double

[souperska]

the cellar door one is genius

[crescentfresh182]

he cant decide what to put down the glass or the case lol. this is kind of scary but i feel like emo phillips lol

[mattcowzer]

is there something wrong with him ?

[LeeM2K1]

We get it. No need to comment on every Emo Phillips video. If you don't like it, why are you going through them all?

[zuddytag]

would that surprise you?

[asidy7trs93]

Nah, but thanks for all the thumbs down guys??? I DO LIKE THE GUY, I NEVER SAID ANYTHING WRONG, probably just all the 12 year olds getting mad cause i said the word "drunk"

[afinendale]

He said 'Emo, there's nothing wrong with your head.' 'I said, guillotine' XD

[jdvond]

never seen him before, now i can't stop searching. thanks

[Manateecutie]

He was on the Weird Al Show once.

[mattboy1115]

One of my favorite Emo quotes: "Just call me Mr. Butterfingers."

[lidoeg2]

I don't know who that guy is but wow is he great

[FlamingSkorpion]

"so i stabbed him" lol

[PoopyPantyPoop]

0:50 -0:56 xD lmao

"so i stabbed him"

[HoldChurKnikerz]

he said the same thing about new york

[potayto2]

He is a genius it's just such a shame how much he re-uses his material.

[lathandien]

yeah thats true.

[xoO0oO0ox]

It's true. I saw him a couple of years ago and he was still doing some material from the 80s.

It's a shame because he's hilarious and his newer stuff was great too.

[7areegaa]

he must be schizo, i saw him out of charachter, he was lame. yet in charachter hes hilarious.

[afinendale]

A lot of comedians do, but the way he tells his jokes makes the re-used ones much more obvious.

[BedTimeLullaby]

LOL HIS BREATHING!

[athrough0]

hahaha neo-Calvinist

[ChiTownJohnnyB]

Was this from Zanies on Wells St.? I might have been at that show!

[MasonWorkz]

i relate to this guy so much, 5'd and favoirited

[mikemuniyaandi]

Quite possibly the most unique stand-up comedian I've ever seen (on YouTube). Brilliant. Thanks for the upload.

[lilanthia]

Emo is just so great!!!!!

Just gotta start speaking and I crack up!!!!!!

[UnknownSun556]

He must be Emo!

[Misaio]

Gotta love Emo!

[padassers180]

he sounds drunk all the time. hahaha but hes awsome

[grizz11952001]

hes verry funny lol

[CBGB42]

He's nuts :D

[KaraBear567]

This is the first video I've ever seen of Emo Philips. I'm going to be completely honest: he gives me the creeps. I just want to know if all of his stand up is like this.

[enidric]

Yes, it is.

[KaraBear567]

Oh, ok. Well thank you very much for letting me know.
