  • Here's an interesting idea for you squabbling folks: Bill Hicks and Sam Kinison were different kinds of funny. Sam Kinison was an entertainer and a comedian, Hicks was a mind-expander and an idealist. Kinison was probably funnier, but Hicks made you think more. They're both worthwhile people, and they were -friends-, you morons. Of course they influenced each other. They came out of the same places! Read a goddamned book about it instead of arguing on the internet.

  • thank you very much for this.

    although I believe I read somewhere that they didn't always stay "friends"? (cfr. kevin booth - bill hicks: agent of evolution) but they sure had a lot of interaction.

  • Lol!

  • Listen closely and you can hear people booing. Making fun of world hunger just wasn't done on network TV in the mid-80s, even though he does have an excellent point.

  • 0:17 not as easy as that sounds kinison but when they gave the food, more problems aroused and it started raining!!!

  • I read that one of the African country's foreign ministers was asking, "Please. Stop the aid."

  • Kinison was not once ever funnier than Hicks. I'm not saying Kinison wasn't funny, but he depended too much on the 80's "cliche comic" style, where you had a punch line, or just yelled as loud as you could, in order to be "funny", sort of like all the female comics from the 80's with the 'overly shy mousey voice'.

    BTW, all stand-up comedians on the circuit are "friends", because it's a small world an no one wants to make enemies.

  • Amazing how much comedians make sense if you think about it XD

  • We are losing daylight! 

  • @roxydog2004 lmao!

    Why does it matter where i'm from? You can't explain your this thing you think you're getting so you get racist?

    Also, "YEAH, SO OTHER PEOPLE AGREE WITH ME SO I'M RIGHT" is such a weak argument that you could get kicked out of an educational institution for using it.

    You and the other morons can keep your illogical "jokes".
