I used to think you had to live this miserable life and that that would make you funnier, but you don't. The misery will come. The misery will find you. Bill Burr findfunnylife Change image and share on social
I like finding stuff that I suck at and trying to get better. So I'm taking classes, getting myself comfortable in an acting scene. You've got to work out those ticks.

I still remember the first gig where I got people going, it was Rascals in New Jersey, and the place was packed. I was scared. People were expecting me to be funny. I gotta be honest, every time I walk into a club, it's that same fear. Bill Burr clubexpectfear share on social
Like most comics, I tried to come up with a sitcom idea that was based around my life. And it didn't work out. But maybe because it didn't work out, that's why I ended up on 'Breaking Bad;' I don't know. Bill Burr badbasebreak share on social
