Bill Burr and the Landlord Saga

The Ol' freckled fuck opened a real can of worms on his 9-23 podcast. You can listen to the EMail Bill read that started it all here: Monday Morning Podcast 9-23-24 | Bill rambles about his new Harley, ex's at weddings, and a girl who gets the 'ick'.

In summary, Girl has a Boyfriend who wants to become a landlord, she says it gives her the "ick" because of the predatory nature of being a landlord. She writes, asking Bill what to do, should she stay, or should she go?

The corresponding Reddit thread can be found here: https://old.reddit.com/r/BillBurr/comments/1fnri3j/monday_morning_podcast_92324_bill_rambles_about/

The comments in that post are pretty tame, but it wasn't the only post:

Imagine having Bill Burr as a landlord

Show

Then on 9-30 he had a bunch of responses to the ick email, and one of them was a 'laaaaady' as Bill would put it, and people seem to think, she was 'great', listen here: Monday Morning Podcast 9-30-24 | Bill Burr

Lmao. That lady eviscerated ick girl, if only Bill was literate enough to do her email justice

Oh I can't wait to hear the responses to the anti-landlord laaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyddeeeeeeeeeeee

Bill has enraged the communists!

Bill is a landlord for anyone wondering why he's getting worked up - Joe Derosa mentioned on the taste buds pod that he stayed at a place bill owned for a bit

Also because he is right. There are good and bad landlords. Reddit somehow hates landlords but also thinks companies should be renting all apartments and not individuals.

I agree that a lot of idealistic leftists don't look at this issue with enough nuance, but wtf are you talking about with the second bit there? The kind of person that hates landlords definitely is not in favor of corporate ownership of apartment buildings lmao. That's not an opinion I've heard from a single person

nuance, nuance, NUANCE!

Lmao Bill hates everything about the stereotypical redditor has been confirmed by that insufferable anti-landlorder

That's right, folks, everyone knows only redditers hate the landlords! We love our landlords out here in the grass don't we folks?

Most people don't understand how hard it is to have your mortgage paid by someone else so you don't have to work an honest job in order to retire.

Imagine if your second or third home had a toy figurine flushed down the drain and you actually had to PLUNGE A TOILET. They'll never understand.

This one is so good, I'll just link right to it.

This, I think, is tangentially related, the commenters are not kind to this brave redditors take.

But it is funny hearing Bill talk about people living under bridges, but also playing devil's advocate to landlords. He really does have the brain of an every man. I love him for that.

Anyway, if you want to go argue with some Joe the Plumber types about the ethical nature of private property, or have Bill read an email about the Maoist Uprising Against the Landlords, strike while the irons hot.
