jasper carrott? hahahaha. My respect for you just dropped a peg. Yes, he is way better than Jasper Carrott. He talks about how shit the world is, and how dumb like, 90% of the world is. He's kinda like Michael Moore crossed with Mark Thomas crossed with someone else really really really funny

Classic Hiscks:
Some guy is heckling him.
He gives a little bit back.
The bloke is a fool and carries on.
Hicks having had enough just shouts at the bloke
"Hitler had the right idea; he was just an UNDERACHIEVER!"

See I think drugs have done some good things for us. If you don't think drugs have done good things for us then do me a favor. Go home tonight and take all of your records,tapes and all your CD's and burn them. Because, you know all those musicians who made all that great music that's enhanced your lives throughout the years? Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreal fucking high on drugs, man.

You know all that money we spend on the military ever year - trillions of dollars? Instead, if we use this money to feed and clothe the poor of this world, which it would do many times over, then we can explore space, inner and outer, together, as one race.

bill hicks being critical of steoreotyping of drug-use outcome
bill: i've done drugs, not ashamed of it, had some great times. but on the news you always hear the same story.....
teenager on acid, jumps off building. thought he could fly.
bill: don't go blaming drugs on this guy, he was an idiot. oh no, one less doorknob on this planet.....if he thought he could fly, why didn't he take off from the ground first? check it out, you don't see ducks taking the allevator to the roof to take off do you?....
i'd like to see a positive drug story once, wonder what the people would think...!
"today, a young man on acid realized that we are all one great consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. that there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream in which we are the imagination of ourselves. here's tom with the weather."
--watcher: honey, did you see the news? shit.
bill: it's not a war on drugs! it's a war on personal freedom is what it is-- keep that in mind!!!

no, bill hicks liked to discuss "freedom" you know the government vs. the people, drugs was one of those topics, but he discussed flag burning, and generally the mentality of american people......
bill: the government is trina put cocaine and marijuana in the same category.....STOP! don't go putting marijuana in the hard drug category, it's an HERB man......like TEA.....
bill: i think marijuana should be legal, heck it should be mandatory.
bill: see a truck driver in traffic, beep beeeeeeeeeep beeeeeep (honking the horn bigtime...), open his door and say "smoke this, it's the LAW".......
(sound of trucker inhaling, followed by a sigh of relief and a laugh)
trucker: shit! sorry, i was taking life seriously.....
bill: let's all be mellow tired and hungry fucks, no traffic jams.....a wave of domino trucks on the streets.....let them get stuck in traffic, all our pizzas will be free...

Reserve judgement until you've heard a full set. If I played you Smojphace and you thought that's all Afx did, you'd be wrong, wouldn't you? Bill's political diatribes are hilarious and also bang on.

Did you know that if you play the New Kids On The Block record backwards, it actually sounds better. -bill
How come people always flip and think they're Jesus? Why not Buddha? Particularly in America, where more people resemble Buddha than Jesus. 'Ah'm BUDDHA!'
'You're Bubba!' 'Ah'm Buddha now..All I gotta do is change 3 letters on ma belt...' -bill
A lot of Christians wear crosses around their necks. Do you think when Jesus comes back he ever wants to see a fuckin' cross? It's kind of like going up to Jackie Onassis with a rifle pendant on." -bill
My final point about alchohol, about drugs, about Pornography...What business is it of your's what I do, read, buy, see or take into my body as long as I don't harm another human being whilst on this planet?
And for those of you having a little moral dilemna on how to answer this, I'll answer for you.
NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS Take that to the bank, cash it and take it on a vacation outta my fucking life.
And stop bringing shotguns to UFO sightings, they might be here to pick me up and take me with 'em. -bill

Obnoxious , self-righteous, whining little fucks. My biggest fear is that if I quit smoking, I'll become on of you...Don't take that wrong. I have something to tell you non-smokers that I know for a fact that you don't know, and I feel it's my duty to pass on information at all times. Ready?.......Non-smokers die every day...Enjoy your evening. See, I know that you entertain this eternal life fantasy because you've chosen not to smoke, but let me be the 1st to POP that bubble and bring you hurtling back to reality....You're dead too. -bill
I generally love my job. You know what the great thing about being a comic is? I have no boss. That's a definate lifestyle plus isnt it?..Aren't bosses something?.....They're like gnats at a picnic man....Get the fuck out of here buddy, it's just a job, doesn't mean a thing. I smoked a joint this morning, you're lucky I showed...My bed was like a womb man... -bill
Ever noticed that people who believe in Creationism look really unevolved? -bill
The world is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it, you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question, is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "Hey - don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride...
And we... kill those people. -bill
What did moths bump into before the electric light bulb was invented? Boy, the lightbulb really screwed the moth up didn't it? Are there moths on their way to the sun now going, "It's gonna be worth it!" -bill
I'm not a girl, I'm a guy you know? But at the same time, I tell ya how you can solve this abortion issue right now. Ready?
Those unwanted babies that single moms leave in alleys and in dumpsters? Leave

about 12 of those on the steps of The Supreme Court. This is over. Like that. "You guys said we had to have them? Then you guys...FUCKING RAISE 'EM."
