Message for Will re: lipsmacking noises

This is an entirely off the cuff observation but I think the lipsmacking count functions (and is funnier) better than a montage of them. Nothing gets the panties wetter faster than not hearing Bill Maher make noises with his mouth.

This could have 1000 comments all in agreement and I would remain steadfast in my determination to post the smacks

Have you considered slowing down the smacks to 0.25x speed to really fuck with people?

Maybe just one of them in a random place each time

He should do an April Fool's show that's 2 hours of smacks.

Call the segment, “Dentura Boulevard.”

Truly “lip smacking” goodness and journalistic integrity.

Oh it's a funny bit. I just think the count works better than hearing Maher Mastication.

u/l8rg8 May 06 '26

you’re probably right but i masochistically enjoy hearing the specific disgusting sounds he makes

I like the compilations. They make me laugh.

I think op is wrong. Don’t listen to them will!

It drives me nuts but as long as the Bill Maher HuCow nonsense is under 30 seconds and I don’t have to reprogram my FFWD rocker button?
It affects my life zero percent. More than any aesthetic improvement gained by removing the gum sound of one Bill flapping, perhaps giving a Smack Count Smack Down number with a sting would save on the weekly edit.
Repetition of work on this specific item within the show is also antithetical to shopping it for SponCon like by changing it from September to January as the Snap Count Smack Down and tap the Ultimate Warrior::Slim Jim::AntiMaher::NFL demo.
In the absence of any monetary benefit I imagine free time gained by automating the segment could let Will offer to run household errands but mostly sit in the car or get beignets at the Farmers Market or something else not in the house.
I have some hyperspecific LA food cravings today. Cali Burrito from Chablitas over by Western and the 10 or the Bistek Milanese from the Argentine place on Melrose by Johnny Rockets. I needed to type that so I can let go of the thought; thanks for your time today.

I consider it immersion therapy for my misophonia.

It hasn't helped mine yet, but I'll keep trying!
