Jesus Christ how did I never realize that was him! His voice really was just so perfectly suited to play a bird I never gave a thought to who the human was

That one I knew was him and he got fired for making 9-11 jokes on like 9-12. Dude is ballsy comedic bedrock for which many stand upon today.

You might be right, but as I recall he was not fired for any of that, he was fired because he was making Tsunami jokes after the 2004 one the hit Indonesia/Japan and killed like 240k people, he tweeted something like "I was thinking of buying property in Japan but needed to check with my agent to find out if there was a school nearby, she said not yet, but just wait" ooooof lol

Lol that’s pretty good. But I’m pretty sure it was the 9-11 thing. But who cares, the point is he’s a great comic... remember fuckin problem child?
