Bill Burr - Why Do I Do This?

Bill Burr is a stand-up comedian who often uses bawdy and black comedy.  This bit is from one of only two CD’s he’s ever released, “Why Do I Do This?”  In it, he discusses the effects of anonymity on the internet, political correctness on the internet, and sexuality and its relation to politics.  With this piece, he exposes the hypocrisy of many of the people on the internet.  However, he also uses his examples to show how similar we all are despite when we say we are different.  The audience for this piece is anyone who has ever had an argument over the internet and considers themselves intelligent.
