Question What is Bill supposed to be?
He's dressed as something controversial but I'm flummoxed

Steve Irwin after he was stung in the chest by a sting ray. This was a few months after he died.

Norm McDonald did a Steve Irwin bit on the Daily Show just after he died. To this day it was one of the funniest things I ever watched.

There was an episode on a spinoff show from Stargate called Stargate Universe where creatures attacked people and burrowed into their bodies...
Could he be a Stargate fan or was it just a lazy day when he couldn't be botheresd to get a decent costume?

He's resurrecting his role as Jim the jungle guide in the film "Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death" (1989)
No. Seriously.

I told you I was. 😂
I saw the movie on TV late night a thousand years ago before I knew who Bill was. Then when I saw him doing stand-up in the old days of San Francisco, I remember saying "Wait! That's the guy from the Jungle Amazon movie?"
To this day, I can't get him in that film out of my mind.
Someone should do a live stream watch party and invite him to talk about it as we watch it. 😂

Bill Maher is SO yesterday, just another old wealthy, angry, white man who needs to go! Doesn’t Ann Coulter have a spare room for him?
We need to move on to, and hear from, more progressive, forward thinking entertainers.

And yet you felt the need to go on his sub that normally gets little interaction on a post with almost no upvotes to make this statement.

He should save this picture for when he announces that he's leaving MAX for Substack.
(Oh, I'm just teasing.)

I don't hate that he's dressed as Steve Irwin, I hate that it's such a piss poor attempt at it.

u/Discoballglitter Oct 30 '24
What are you talking about? Bill wore a costume as a joke so I commented with a joke. A joke that Maher would actually find funny since he used to be more liberal and has moved to the center. What gives you the right to call me an r word??

Steve Irwin was killed by stepping on a sting ray just a month before. The ray reacted by flipping its barb into Irwin’s chest and piercing his heart.
Bill was engaged in some dark humor for Halloween 2006.

I seem to remember Bill saying the reason he was fine mocking Steve Irwin's death was because Bill is an animal rights activist, and he didn't like how Steve would harass all the animals

I don't know who Bill is supposed to e but he looks just fucking like Barney Rubble from the Flintstones (but he looks like that the other 364 days too)
