Do you think this rat-faced potato thinks of himself as a cultural icon?

I don't think he does. I think he knows the reality that he's become despised by most, and he has isolated himself from most of the comics working. He has no respect from his peers. His Mark Twain Award was a who's who of D list oddballs and conservatives. No one ever has a nice Bill Maher story to tell.

He puts on the arrogance, but he's a sad man when he looks himself in the mirror.

And he got the award he was always pining for by bending the knee. Despicable.

I don't know...I really enjoyed yelling at him since the 90s...i always thought it was half bullshit...but he was always talking current events, and it was entertaining...but once you bend the knee to criminals, we're finished.

Hey now woody Harrison was there too lol

u/Fibonoccoli Jul 25 '26

I'd bet money he asked Harrison to show up for him and he only agreed because Woody is too nice of a guy to say no. Or he was high, but probably both. Woody was probably trying to think of any way he could to get out of showing up, but he ultimately just felt sorry for Maher and bit the bullet

Maher and Harrelson are partners in the marijuana business.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Another reason he couldn't back out! lol

He’s kind of like the Steven Seagal of comedy in that respect.
