is not every you can't please everybody all the time and every line isn't going to hit with everybody the same way but it feels to me and i just think this is anecdotal but probably is true people are quick
They're quick to snap.
And, you know, we've seen it.
People bum rust the stage.
They throw shit at musicians.
They attack comics on stage.
You know, have you experienced any of this outside this one instance?
No, people are so entrenched in their own divisive thought.
And I can't exclude myself sometimes from that, too.
I don't think I would bum rush a stage, but it's like everything is so damn personal, you know, and it's it's really not.
I always thought of comedy is a little bit of a noble profession in the sense that it allows people to open up.
When you're laughing, you're opening up even to ideas that otherwise you wouldn't, you know, if you're talking to your friend or watching a news story, whatever you wouldn't think.
