I've found nothing but support and generosity from older comics. I think comedians are a lot nicer than the stigma is, at least from my experience. Bo Burnham comediancomicexperience Change image and share on social
There's a certain line between jokes and music and poetry that's a bit blurred in my mind. Bo Burnham biteblurjoke Change image and share on social
For me, comedy is constantly presented as this fake casualness, like a guy just walked on stage going, 'This crazy thing happened to me the other day.' And he's in front of 3000 people, and he's acting like an everyman, and he's getting paid so much money. Bo Burnham actcasualnesscomedy share on social
I'm bored way too easily. I'm staring at screens half the day. I need to be overstimulated. And how will that express itself artistically? Bo Burnham artisticallyboreday Change image and share on social
'Words, Words, Words' was very much its title. It's just words, words, words and trying to show that I can pack as much material into an hour as I possibly could word count-wise. Bo Burnham counthourmaterial Change image and share on social

I've always liked TV shows that have slightly unlikable leads, where you root for them in spite of a lot of things. I know it's not common with shows with young people; they have to be so likable. But, I mean, teenagers just generally aren't very likable. I know I wasn't as a teenager. Bo Burnham commongenerallyhave share on social
Comedy is the one absolutely self-aware art form. Actually, hip-hop's another one, I suppose. Because in your songs you're talking about how good a hip-hop artist you are. It's like a painter painting a panting of himself painting a painting. Bo Burnham absolutelyartartist share on social
