Why wouldn't he?
Still funny
Bill Burr is a national treasure. Shut your whore mouth.
This joke still works great today. A guy just got banned from JetBlue for flying while knowing he had a pending test, Europeans are spreading it like wildfire with their cheek-kiss greeting ritual, and anyone who thinks stocking up on toilet paper is the answer definitely needs to be thinned out.
Still funny, I laughed.
I think we need to get more familiar with the possibility of our own deaths and of those close to us.
The problem with the cancel culture out there is they can't take a joke as a joke. People think that all jokes should be taken as serious statements, not pointed irony. I hope he does make the joke again, and I hope you find it offensive. I would find that hilarious. He doesn't owe you an apology because you had a sensitivity to one of his jokes. The only metric comedians need to worry about is if their jokes are funny or not.

What are you talking about? He is one of my favourite standup comics. I was simply wondering if that joke would still be funny now and three months from now. If he actually could pull it off.
Of course, if I told that joke, it would never be funny. But coming from him it’s hilarious.
I don't have any issue with Burr's humor. He is not by in large very funny, but I think most areas are fair game for comedy, eventually. I do have an issue with his underlying contempt and hate for humanity. Lenny Bruce, a comic genius, for whom no bovine were consecrated, still loved humanity deep down. I have never seen any sign that Burr loves anyone except himself. That gets old in a comic quick. But hey, we live under a Führer here in the USA now. Hate and narcissism is in.
You must not have spent anytime with actual human beings.

Ignore the video and focus on the audio.

You can always head up to Canada.
I hope so. Because he is funny and successful. And you're not.

Oh My God.
You think Lenny Bruce was funny!
And Bill Burr isn't?
Okay Bibi
