I was a stay at home dad for five years. I had a night job from 9pm-1am during that time Up at seven every day cleaned the house., Did the laundry, prepared the evening meal and looked after our daughter.

I am a PARENT a Father off 3 kids ( now young adults ). I RAISED my kids while my X wife was out Running around for years. I did the laundry I did most of the cooking and I did ALL of the grocery shopping - When they were little I gave them their baths and I stayed up with them all night when they were sick or just crying and I worked a full time Job as a Police Officer. My KIDS WERE ***ARE *** AWESOME and they were never a problem so YES being a parent can be difficult but not near as difficult as my job was.
Wow, that sounds like my experience, only the kids weren't even mine. I too was a Police Officer. I even assisted with her finding employment with the department. Only I was traded in on a younger model. Didn't care much for her after that, but I never saw the kids again. Life's tough, but within 6 months I was a card carrying member of the MGTOW movement and I realised being shown the door was the best thing that could have happened .
I love how Diane inadvertently insulted 80% of parents by saying “parenting is a hard job WHEN DONE RIGHT” then again “I’m sure it is exhausting WHEN DONE RIGHT” I’m 💀 like she deadass insulted like 80% of parents in one foul swoop and I’m here for it
What's funnier to think about is how 3/4 of those bad parents could not be convinced otherwise that they are bad. In contrast, the rest couldn't care that they are.
It's not hard even if it's done right whatever that means, raising a child to be respectful of others and is responsible , yeah it's no hard, I turned out pretty good, I could tell it wasn't the "best" Very fussy parenting, you just gotta teach em manner, sometimes whoop their ass if they go out of line, make them understand the importance of education, make em learn skills and responsibility
In all honesty, and this isn't from a parent, but as far as I'm concerned and have observed from the multitude of different families you see in your life. All the best families that are doing it right, are the ones who are less stressed
Im a mother and I laughed so hard I cried. He was on point about the whole thing🤣🤣I will be happy the rest of my life NOT having to watch Power Rangers 😝
To me this is not yelling. I am not yelling. I’m just passionate about my opinions and I want to tell you all of them before you start talking again.” - Bill Burr .. a comedic genius!!
It's called Victimhood. And they use it to feel entitled to being treated with special privilege, while telling everyone else to check their own. We live in the Special Snowflake Politically Correct Era now, and it'll be the fall of society.
Difficult and stressful for sure. I have 2 older sisters who were/are single working mothers. We were Army brats and our step dad literally was in desert storm, Bosnia, Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan. So we knew that mom being at home taking care of the family was necessary, but it wasn't close to dad jumping out of planes on the other side of the world. And now imagine that there are women in the military who are also single mothers. It's not the most difficult, but in terms of developing a human, having a loving adult around is very important.
Being a parent is not the hardest job in the world. I was a single parent of twins. I was the full charge parent through middle school, high school, college, peace corps, and now graduate school. I worked a full time job in healthcare management, paid for everything, had a great time being a parent, never complained once about parenting. I had no help, did all the cooking and cleaning too. I didn't consider my work that difficult either. I didn't do manual labor, I worked in an office.
single parents like to play the victim but in truth, they invariably cause the problems themselves by making bad choices and then compounding them. I was raised by a single mother for a couple years until she could find a husband she could walk on. The truth is that she was selfish and had to be the center of the whole world. My father drank because he had to live with her for 15 years.
Something tells me you are just glossing over the hard parts. Just because you find a job fulfilling doesn’t mean it wasn’t or isn’t hard. Also the hardest most difficult times are starting from late term pregnancy to caring for toddlers anyways.
So many comedians ,Bill Burr is hard reality. He pulls no punches, my favorite was when he was called racist. The critic did not know Bill is married to a women of colour . Bill's rebuttal was absolutely fantastic. ✌🖖😎🇨🇦
@@keriezy Exactly. It doesn't guarantee a thing. I'm adopted and member of a interracial family and certain grandparents were kinda bigoted against another race of folks.
@@bensweiss I think the word racist is a bit of a blunt object, metaphorically speaking. It carries a connotation of extremism that belies the reality of a wide spectrum of severity. We're all racist - including the most 'woke' civil rights activists. There are racists who think people of a certain race are inferior without hating them and without wanting to deprive them of rights. Should such persons be viewed with the same disdain as militant KKK members and segregationists? I think not. But labelling them as racist kinda does that. It's not that they're not racist. It's just that the word has so many connotations that don't apply to them. We need more words.
i love bill burr, hes pretty self aware of when hes being "insensitive" its not coming from that angle hes just genuinely joking around and asking silly questions. He even conceded parenting is difficult but "most" difficult is what he was contending with.
I went to a rescue place to adopt an older dog, and it would have been free, but then I saw a young dog peeing in his bed, so I decided he needed rescuing, and I had to pay $300. because technically, he was still a puppy at eleven and a half months old. I still tried adopting an older dog, but she wouldn't allow the young dog near her, so the rescue shelter wouldn't let me adopt both. Later, a woman was moving to Australia and needed to find a forever home for her older mixed Newfoundland dog, so I did get an older dog too.
I'm Swedish, and my English from 4th to 9th grade was Irish. It feels good to hear not just "Arse" again, but also to hear that Irish slant on the A. Fills me with nostalgia.
I agree about Oprah. The dog adoption thing isn’t true, at least everywhere I have gone, they aren’t “free” either there is a fee as well as tons of paperwork and plenty of hoops to jump through. I guess there may be a few places where it’s different, but most that I’ve been to are like this. Chewie is absolutely wonderful.
There is always a fee. But we didn't let cats out a week before Halloween, obvious reason. Small background check when I was in high school (50 years ago).
I agree about Oprah... especially her interviewing skills and the fact she released Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz on the world should never be forgiven. It depends on where you go for a dog. Some shelters will give them away(as they were just going to put them down anyway if nobody wanted them) and some make you jump through hoops like you're adopting a child. Any breeder that is any good will also at least have some questions and probably want to see where you live. I prefer freebie dogs from in front of Wal-Mart/off Craig's list/etc, a good mutt is almost always the best dog anyway.
The thing about Bill Burr is that he puts his toe over the line but then he justifies why he's doing it. It is pretty easy to get on board with most of his jokes.
No he doesn't, the guy gets offended by fucking everything and cries like a little bitch about how women are oppressing his pwecious wittle feewlings. He's an idiot.
Yeah, he's not trying to tell jokes from the point of "I'm right and smart", he frequently allows herself to be the butt of the joke and in the wrong if it makes the routine funnier
The dog part is so true, I had a Rottie I taught to walk beside my wheelchair, I could walk that dog at 3am in the worst part of the city and nobody came within 10 feet of me without asking first.
Oooh, I love Bill Burr! Might be because I agree with him a lot! Hoping to attend a live show someday. Great episode today Diane, have a lovely week (maybe another pic-a-nic dinner on the beach?) Cheers to you, Chewie, and ED.
I do think the problem many people have with small dogs is that they are often very poorly trained, or not trained at all, because they are small and its easy to control them on a leash. But sometimes the lack of discipline makes them forget respect and they ignore the fact that literally anything catsized or bigger could murder them. Our dog once reacted to a small one being overly agressive and just jumped on him like it was a toy. The small one had to go to the doctor with a broken leg and some injurys and I consider that a lucky outcome... Couldve easily died from a slightly better aimed or with intent to kill executed bite. Dont poke at things that outweigh you more than 2 times unless youre ready to get flattened. True for most beings.
My neighbors rat terrier dug under our fence and came over. I was in my yard with my Great Dane when the little thing decided to charge over. My dog just stepped on it and planted it in the ground. She didn’t even bother to lower her head to bite it. Just a few steps and a stomp.
Diane, To answer your question about the ease/difficulty of adopting dogs here in the US, I think it largely depends on the organization you're adopting from. For instance, when my family adopted a Jack Russell Terrier from the local shelter about 20 years ago, all we had to do was express interest in him and for my mother to pay a $67 adoption fee. When we adopted our current dog (a dachshund-beagle mix who's on my channel) from a local rescue organization, however, it was a little more intensive. Not only did we have to fill out an online application and use family/friends as character references, we all had to show up to the facility on a specific day and have them explain to us what we could and couldn't do for the first two weeks she was home. She's been home with us ever since, though, and has us firmly wrapped around her paws.
Just one problems with Bill's routine here, there's no needs to microchip everyone. These days most have their phones permanently glued to their hand. Microchipping the people would be redundant.
Probably redundant for tracking, but it would depend on the capabilities of the chip implant. Could potentially be used as something more nefarious than tracking.
When I got my dog in July of 2017, I saw a picture of my dog on the SPCA's website, went to the SPCA, played with the dog for about ten minutes, paid about $100, signed something about taking care of her, and I would have just walked out with her if she had been spayed. She wasn't spayed so I had to wait a week until the shelter did it, but I think the county pound gives a voucher to have your vet do it.
Fascinated how your voice oscillates between American and English accents, I dig it ;-) And Bill Burr is spot on 99% of the time which is a big part of his success. He says what the majority feel but are too afraid to say. 🇺🇸
I adopted my cats from a privately run shelter. I had to sign a contract and pay a fee. I also had to bring them back to the shelter to have them spayed or neutered. Some shelters require you to provide a character witness.
As far as dogs go. It depends on where you get him/her. My SO got a “rescue” from a reputable local shelter. She had to go for an interview, a meet and greet with the staff and the dog and provide references. She also brought her other dog in to make sure they got along. The staff at the shelter did follow up and called for references to see if she was qualified to adopt this dog. Anyway, Bill Burr is the best!
I never had to do any of that. Have had to make sure they always had their shots and registration. No references or interview though. And that was when I got the dog in California from the ASPCA.
I love how Bill trolls everybody. My favorite joke of his was leading up to the 2016 election he wrote a post online where he said "Trump is such a dope he's actually going to make me vote for a woman". He hates political humor but makes an exception for jokes that offend everyone lol.
@@C.Church I'd say yes and at the very least he doesn't pander. I saw him here in Nashville and he had a good 10 minutes of city specific jokes for us. He has a lot of stuff making fun of sports fans, white guys, and people from Boston too so overall I'd say he's pretty fair.
@@C.Church There will always be a point when making fun of a demographic reaches its diminishing returns. You have to be honest with yourself on this one. Some groups offer more material than others. You can be very creative but some "materials" can get too used up. Don't put it on Bill if you think he is not "spending" so much time on a certajn demographic. For instance, there are funny white males but as a group, there is not much diversity they can offer. It always goes back to the usual "they are the most racist". And you can only beat that horse enough to have the fun taken out. Other groups offer much more. And for some, it is simply just them being the kind of people they are. And with Bill, if you look closer, it is actually more about people being the kind of people they are and not so much their group affiliation. The lines are often more blurred. That is why it is fun: are you really offended or laughing because you come from a certain background or are you just that kind of person?
its kinda funny at this point... you can almost see dollar bills just randomly falling from the scenery during the interviews(at least those that iv seen in recent times, back in the 70's she was pretty good)
yeah, what _meaningful_ accomplishments did Oprah ever do? other than spread gossip (that's conveniently always elite-friendly) it is literally impossible to become a billionaire without massively exploiting others people who think she's charitable are getting majorly smoke screened - it's like thinking Bill Gates is charitable (and not doing it for _PR_ & tax benefits)
"one of those shiz dogs you can punch across the room if it got out of line.." That one got me laughing for several minutes. I just wasn't expecting him to say that.
Love these reaction videos! When I had a Chihuahua, I was walking him & stopped to let him do his business and a girl with a german Shepard came up behind us. My little dog attacked the Shepard! I was mortified, the shepard was wimpering & the girl couldn't stop laughing at the sight. I was much more careful walking my little dog after that
5:52 It depends on if you’re getting one from a breeder or pound/shelter. One of my friends had to go through an interview process with the breeder for there Australian Shepherd. It was about three interviews. That dog was a show dogs. 3 out of the 4 dogs I’ve own where strays.
One of the most brutal (and hilarious) clips of Bill Burr is when he was doing a show in Philly, and the crowd was heckling and booing the other comics, and Bill just went into full attack mode on the crowd, insulting the entire city!
That was an actual Duracell commercial around 2008 -- I always loved his rundown of it as it's EXACTLY what I thought when I first saw the commercial on TV!
He’s not the funniest comedian I’ve heard but not the worst either. Both of my Grandparents were farmers and that is a very hard job. Thanks for the laughs and hope all is well! ❤️U☘️🇮🇪🇺🇸
@@aj897 society would survive without those but everything would go to shit without parents. Now i agree. Those things are beneficial and make life better for everyone but parenting is a must for the continuation of the human race.
@@jonahmordhaim2705 you didn't just say farming isn't important.... Bruh it's literally where we get most of our food and fabric... So if all the farmers and their crops disappeared right now, we'd be fucked lol
I found it really hilarious when you told me that your dog is so rude to the big dogs. We got our son a teddy bear poodle and he's exactly the same when he sees big dogs. Whenever I'm walking him and he sees a big dog he goes crazy barking at it. I think it's probably because we have alpha dogs.
Man, imagine going to the store and not being able to find disinfecting wipes and toilet paper in the color I like. I'm so glad I liked and subscribed. Now that will NEVER happen 🙂
5:51 - Depends on the area and demand, most places you have to go through an application process, but some areas if the shelters are stressed will relax the requirments.
I liked that bit at the end when you were talking about comedians are just telling jokes. When did we all lose our sense of humor and start to get offended by everything?
I dont know, but for a generation raised on South Park and American Dad it seems inconceivable. You can't say " Hello " without offending someone and then if you don't say it, someone else is offended.
Similar to the unexpected dog, I'm always confused by the commercials that show someone gifting a car. I would be pissed if someone got me a car without consulting me. What if I don't like it? How are we paying for it?
Right?! Can you afford the type of fuel it needs etc. Some things are not good surprise gifts no matter how many compilation videos there are cute reactions
I think they addressed that with a truck commercial 1 or 2 years ago where the husband bought a black one for himself and a red 1 for his wife. When she saw them both she squealed and hopped into the black 1. It didn't go quite the way he thought
@@LindaC616 I remember that one, but I don't think that addresses it. Just because she loved it doesn't really offset that fact that he made two major purchases without consulting his partner. Because you normally keep a vehicle for a few years, it's a fairly personal decision what you choose to drive. I remember a few years ago when my mom was looking for a car, I went and test drove a few cars with her. I thought for sure she would go with the chevy, but she choose the subaru even though it was my least favorite of the ones she drove and seemed the least practical for her. I hate driving it, but 11 years later she is still really happy with her choice.
I had a friend who got fired from her volunteer job at a shelter. Seems she was too tough of an advocate for the animals . Noone passed her high standards for adoption & they had too many left 🤪🤣🤣, so yes, at least some shelters have rules to adopt (my friend was just a little overzealous)
Regarding adoption fees for dogs from the pound: many high-kill shelters, when they get full, will have promotions where they waive adoption fees. Sometimes donations are used to subsidize fees for specific dogs that have been around a long time, too. “Empty Kennel” promotions involve free adoption weeks or months. But most shelters have a fee most of the time.
Its not that difficult. I stayed home just over a year while my wife focused on her career. My kids were 2 and 4 at the time. Seriously the easiest thing in the world i have ever done. I had to end up starting a home business just to stay busy
Being a parent of three teenagers is difficult emotionally. My wife and I are looking back fondly on the preteen years. He‘s totally right about the big dog sidewalk thing. We have had a Boxer and a Doberman, super friendly and goofy dogs. It’s like the Red Sea sometimes.
Watching this chick react to this was a "different kind of difficult." God if I were a woman I know for certain I wouldn't be working 12 hour shifts 5-6 days a week. Check your privilege ladies.
Most women choose to have babies because they don't want to wage slave. Meanwhile most men are wage slaving 60 hour weeks because some woman chose to have a baby they now have to pay for.
Bill Burr is one of the realest comedians in the industry. @Diane Jennings i subd on your chanel and i love irish accent. i can listen to you talk all day.
With you on Oprah and as you do acknowledge she has done a lot of good but it has gone to her head. One thing about being a mom is thst it often is 24 hours but people miss that he is likely jesting.
Oprah is proof of what a hype machine can do for you. There's really nothing special about her but with the right people running the show she has become the media "darling" she is today.
What you said about your dog was kinda very nice and special. You understand your dog and you do “preemptive measures”. Wow! a lot of people dont do that. I respect that !! “You dog doesnt deserve my dog because he is an a**hole” - I wish more people with their dogs not behaving good around others would understand that. Respect!! Fluffmonster:))))
I really like about you that you have your own opinions, not being influenced by what speech is popular at the moment. Too many people are taking the popular political opinion and make it so like it's their actual, genuine opinion of the world. You got yourself a subscriber.
looked after two girls, kept the house clean. feed the kids and made lunch for schools, took them to school pick them up after. hard no. i prioritised my time. i worked 12hr shifts at a mine. loved being a stay at home dad...easy peezy
When raised right, guard dog breeds tend be absolute sweethearts. Some of the sweetest dogs I've met have been Pitbulls, Rottweilers, and stuff like that
Your Chewie story reminded me of something. The other day, I was sitting outside by my campfire listening to the coyotes howl and yip. Pretty cool to hear. However, the neighborhood dogs were going BALLISTIC, lol. Barking their stupid heads off... And I'm thinking "Aww who are you trying to kid?? Acting all tough...Those coyotes would eat you for lunch!" It's SO true, though, that little dogs freak out when they see other dogs. RUFF RUFF RUFF!!! YAP YAP YAP!!! As often as not, bigger dogs just glance at them, "Okay, buddy- whatever" and just keep walking.
I work with a rescue organization fostering dogs and not only do you have to pay an adoption fee (over $300) but you have to sign a contract with all sorts of stipulations and you have to pass a background check
$30 at a Mississippi dog pound got me a wonderful lab/hound mix. No background check. Just some administrative paperwork. They had neutered him and given him all his shots, all included in the $30 fee. There's a big surplus of pets in Mississippi. Some even get shipped to northern states where there are much fewer. Unfortunately, some are euthanized.
Being a parent is "challenging" at times, but I completely agree with Bill here. After raising two kids to adulthood, I can confidently say that it was not the "most difficult job in the world." Certainly, there were times I questioned my sanity, but... lol.
When I got my first dog, my mom said I had to get one from Operation Kindness. Which are no kill animal shelters in North Dallas. This was in the early 80s and now there are a lot of Operation Kindness shelters all over North Texas and it's the only place I will go if I want to adopt a pet. They require proof that the home the pet is going to is going to be a healthy environment, but that's about it and the animals there are awesome and loving.
I got 2 pitbulls. One 50 and yhe other is 85 pounds. Both solid muscle and not an ounce of fat. Bill Burr is 1000% correct. People cross streets, open doors, start reaching in their purses. It's awesome! I'm never getting mugged ever again.😁😁
It depends on the State - even the county - but getting a dog, particularly in Middle America, is relatively easy. Especially since a lot of city folk like to dump the dogs they don't want in the country side and make it some poor farmer's problem. A lot of shelters, a lot of dogs. Shelters though, pretty simple. Hell, they even give you a free bowl.
Bill Burr is a national treasure. He speaks truth and makes people laugh.
I agree wholeheartedly. His podcast is awesome, and his stand-up is all about truthful things most people don't want to accept or even think about.
He does not speak the truth all the time but you are right, he's funny as fuck!

I love how Diane inadvertently insulted 80% of parents by saying “parenting is a hard job WHEN DONE RIGHT” then again “I’m sure it is exhausting WHEN DONE RIGHT” I’m 💀 like she deadass insulted like 80% of parents in one foul swoop and I’m here for it
What's funnier to think about is how 3/4 of those bad parents could not be convinced otherwise that they are bad. In contrast, the rest couldn't care that they are.
It's not hard even if it's done right whatever that means, raising a child to be respectful of others and is responsible , yeah it's no hard, I turned out pretty good, I could tell it wasn't the "best" Very fussy parenting, you just gotta teach em manner, sometimes whoop their ass if they go out of line, make them understand the importance of education, make em learn skills and responsibility
In all honesty, and this isn't from a parent, but as far as I'm concerned and have observed from the multitude of different families you see in your life. All the best families that are doing it right, are the ones who are less stressed
And I think she is wrong. It's easier if you do it right.

To me this is not yelling. I am not yelling. I’m just passionate about my opinions and I want to tell you all of them before you start talking again.” - Bill Burr .. a comedic genius!!
@Matt Kehoe He is funny. He is also an asshole.
It’s COMEDY this generation rejoices in being miserable, it’s like they intentionally are looking to be sad, btw I’m with ya 100% on Oprah
It's called Victimhood. And they use it to feel entitled to being treated with special privilege, while telling everyone else to check their own. We live in the Special Snowflake Politically Correct Era now, and it'll be the fall of society.
Sameeee.
"We can like different things and still be friends" THANK YOU! You just restored some of my faith in humanity.
Difficult and stressful for sure. I have 2 older sisters who were/are single working mothers. We were Army brats and our step dad literally was in desert storm, Bosnia, Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan. So we knew that mom being at home taking care of the family was necessary, but it wasn't close to dad jumping out of planes on the other side of the world. And now imagine that there are women in the military who are also single mothers. It's not the most difficult, but in terms of developing a human, having a loving adult around is very important.
Being a parent is not the hardest job in the world. I was a single parent of twins. I was the full charge parent through middle school, high school, college, peace corps, and now graduate school. I worked a full time job in healthcare management, paid for everything, had a great time being a parent, never complained once about parenting. I had no help, did all the cooking and cleaning too. I didn't consider my work that difficult either. I didn't do manual labor, I worked in an office.
Fabulous! I never hear this. It's commendable.
Great attitude sir! I love women but you’d NEVER hear a woman say this
single parents like to play the victim but in truth, they invariably cause the problems themselves by making bad choices and then compounding them. I was raised by a single mother for a couple years until she could find a husband she could walk on. The truth is that she was selfish and had to be the center of the whole world. My father drank because he had to live with her for 15 years.
He is saying women who stay home raising kids
N they propagate that raising kids is the hard thing n the fact is it isn't
Something tells me you are just glossing over the hard parts. Just because you find a job fulfilling doesn’t mean it wasn’t or isn’t hard. Also the hardest most difficult times are starting from late term pregnancy to caring for toddlers anyways.
So many comedians ,Bill Burr is hard reality. He pulls no punches, my favorite was when he was called racist. The critic did not know Bill is married to a women of colour . Bill's rebuttal was absolutely fantastic. ✌🖖😎🇨🇦
yes it was
Which interview was that?
Not saying he is or isn't, but I've known racists with mixed families who never saw the disconnection.
@@keriezy Exactly. It doesn't guarantee a thing. I'm adopted and member of a interracial family and certain grandparents were kinda bigoted against another race of folks.
@@bensweiss I think the word racist is a bit of a blunt object, metaphorically speaking. It carries a connotation of extremism that belies the reality of a wide spectrum of severity. We're all racist - including the most 'woke' civil rights activists. There are racists who think people of a certain race are inferior without hating them and without wanting to deprive them of rights. Should such persons be viewed with the same disdain as militant KKK members and segregationists? I think not. But labelling them as racist kinda does that. It's not that they're not racist. It's just that the word has so many connotations that don't apply to them. We need more words.
i love bill burr, hes pretty self aware of when hes being "insensitive" its not coming from that angle hes just genuinely joking around and asking silly questions. He even conceded parenting is difficult but "most" difficult is what he was contending with.
I went to a rescue place to adopt an older dog, and it would have been free, but then I saw a young dog peeing in his bed, so I decided he needed rescuing, and I had to pay $300. because technically, he was still a puppy at eleven and a half months old. I still tried adopting an older dog, but she wouldn't allow the young dog near her, so the rescue shelter wouldn't let me adopt both. Later, a woman was moving to Australia and needed to find a forever home for her older mixed Newfoundland dog, so I did get an older dog too.
I'm Swedish, and my English from 4th to 9th grade was Irish. It feels good to hear not just "Arse" again, but also to hear that Irish slant on the A. Fills me with nostalgia.
I agree about Oprah. The dog adoption thing isn’t true, at least everywhere I have gone, they aren’t “free” either there is a fee as well as tons of paperwork and plenty of hoops to jump through. I guess there may be a few places where it’s different, but most that I’ve been to are like this.
Chewie is absolutely wonderful.
Oh thank you!
That’s quite the relief to hear Trudes!
YES! I totally agree.
There is always a fee. But we didn't let cats out a week before Halloween, obvious reason. Small background check when I was in high school (50 years ago).
@@donovanfoto3263 we don't let cats out around here, almost ever....for other reasons
Well, unless it's a no-kill shelter, you *are* saving them
I agree about Oprah... especially her interviewing skills and the fact she released Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz on the world should never be forgiven.
It depends on where you go for a dog. Some shelters will give them away(as they were just going to put them down anyway if nobody wanted them) and some make you jump through hoops like you're adopting a child. Any breeder that is any good will also at least have some questions and probably want to see where you live.
I prefer freebie dogs from in front of Wal-Mart/off Craig's list/etc, a good mutt is almost always the best dog anyway.
Oprah owes the world an abject apology for Dr. Odd and Dr. Philth. But she'll never admit to her mistakes.
Dr Phil is a right git. He had a hand in sending kids to those torture camps and so-called rehabs.
I forgot she was responsible for Dr. Oz.

The thing about Bill Burr is that he puts his toe over the line but then he justifies why he's doing it. It is pretty easy to get on board with most of his jokes.
He always puts himself in the position of being out of line, but it's a strategy to get those who might disagree to listen.
No he doesn't, the guy gets offended by fucking everything and cries like a little bitch about how women are oppressing his pwecious wittle feewlings. He's an idiot.
Yeah, he's not trying to tell jokes from the point of "I'm right and smart", he frequently allows herself to be the butt of the joke and in the wrong if it makes the routine funnier
The dog part is so true, I had a Rottie I taught to walk beside my wheelchair, I could walk that dog at 3am in the worst part of the city and nobody came within 10 feet of me without asking first.
Bill Burr is awesome.
Oooh, I love Bill Burr! Might be because I agree with him a lot! Hoping to attend a live show someday. Great episode today Diane, have a lovely week (maybe another pic-a-nic dinner on the beach?) Cheers to you, Chewie, and ED.
@Mike Hagen You’re single, right?
I do think the problem many people have with small dogs is that they are often very poorly trained, or not trained at all, because they are small and its easy to control them on a leash. But sometimes the lack of discipline makes them forget respect and they ignore the fact that literally anything catsized or bigger could murder them. Our dog once reacted to a small one being overly agressive and just jumped on him like it was a toy. The small one had to go to the doctor with a broken leg and some injurys and I consider that a lucky outcome... Couldve easily died from a slightly better aimed or with intent to kill executed bite.
Dont poke at things that outweigh you more than 2 times unless youre ready to get flattened. True for most beings.
My neighbors rat terrier dug under our fence and came over. I was in my yard with my Great Dane when the little thing decided to charge over. My dog just stepped on it and planted it in the ground. She didn’t even bother to lower her head to bite it. Just a few steps and a stomp.
Yep Wolverines do not make good pets.
I understand why people get offended. However, people need to remember kids need to understand how the world is.
Enjoy the rest of your week.
I did a few roofing jobs for a favor, awful. But the worst job is tree cutting and trimming, very hard and dangerous.
"Not the same kind of difficult" That's the point 😂
"You shouldn't just give somebody a dog." Tell that to John Wick.
I got to meet Bill once, he was so cool and the nicest guy
Everyone Seems to have really good things to say about him. It’s such a pleasure to hear that
As someone with a large dog, I never get offended seeing someone with a small dog move across to get away.
That because my 12 lbs of fluff thinks it is a big dog and I need protection.
Diane,
To answer your question about the ease/difficulty of adopting dogs here in the US, I think it largely depends on the organization you're adopting from. For instance, when my family adopted a Jack Russell Terrier from the local shelter about 20 years ago, all we had to do was express interest in him and for my mother to pay a $67 adoption fee.
When we adopted our current dog (a dachshund-beagle mix who's on my channel) from a local rescue organization, however, it was a little more intensive. Not only did we have to fill out an online application and use family/friends as character references, we all had to show up to the facility on a specific day and have them explain to us what we could and couldn't do for the first two weeks she was home. She's been home with us ever since, though, and has us firmly wrapped around her paws.
Just one problems with Bill's routine here, there's no needs to microchip everyone. These days most have their phones permanently glued to their hand. Microchipping the people would be redundant.
This is true
Faraday phone bag
This bit came out quite awhile ago, he's still got hair.
Probably redundant for tracking, but it would depend on the capabilities of the chip implant. Could potentially be used as something more nefarious than tracking.
@@GrimmdarkTruth Suicide Squad lol
When I got my dog in July of 2017, I saw a picture of my dog on the SPCA's website, went to the SPCA, played with the dog for about ten minutes, paid about $100, signed something about taking care of her, and I would have just walked out with her if she had been spayed. She wasn't spayed so I had to wait a week until the shelter did it, but I think the county pound gives a voucher to have your vet do it.
Diane's reactions are gold.
Oh cheeeeers!
Your little Chewie is so adorable! Thank you for all the great videos!
Fascinated how your voice oscillates between American and English accents, I dig it ;-)
And Bill Burr is spot on 99% of the time which is a big part of his success. He says what the majority feel but are too afraid to say. 🇺🇸
Irish accent.
Yeah I dig it too
I adopted my cats from a privately run shelter. I had to sign a contract and pay a fee. I also had to bring them back to the shelter to have them spayed or neutered. Some shelters require you to provide a character witness.
As far as dogs go. It depends on where you get him/her. My SO got a “rescue” from a reputable local shelter. She had to go for an interview, a meet and greet with the staff and the dog and provide references. She also brought her other dog in to make sure they got along. The staff at the shelter did follow up and called for references to see if she was qualified to adopt this dog. Anyway, Bill Burr is the best!
I never had to do any of that. Have had to make sure they always had their shots and registration. No references or interview though. And that was when I got the dog in California from the ASPCA.
I love how Bill trolls everybody. My favorite joke of his was leading up to the 2016 election he wrote a post online where he said "Trump is such a dope he's actually going to make me vote for a woman". He hates political humor but makes an exception for jokes that offend everyone lol.
@@C.Church I'd say yes and at the very least he doesn't pander. I saw him here in Nashville and he had a good 10 minutes of city specific jokes for us. He has a lot of stuff making fun of sports fans, white guys, and people from Boston too so overall I'd say he's pretty fair.
@@C.Church he gives it to everyone. That’s what I love about Bill Burr. No race, gender, belief, etc is safe lol imo he’s a comedic genius
@@C.Church that leaves space for you. You can start a career…
@@C.Church There will always be a point when making fun of a demographic reaches its diminishing returns. You have to be honest with yourself on this one. Some groups offer more material than others. You can be very creative but some "materials" can get too used up. Don't put it on Bill if you think he is not "spending" so much time on a certajn demographic. For instance, there are funny white males but as a group, there is not much diversity they can offer. It always goes back to the usual "they are the most racist". And you can only beat that horse enough to have the fun taken out. Other groups offer much more. And for some, it is simply just them being the kind of people they are. And with Bill, if you look closer, it is actually more about people being the kind of people they are and not so much their group affiliation. The lines are often more blurred. That is why it is fun: are you really offended or laughing because you come from a certain background or are you just that kind of person?
Bill Burr frequently jumps into controversial topic areas but rarely has controversial opinions - guy is hilarious, blunt, & based
Love Bill Burr!! Greatest/funniest/honest man alive
Yes. Oprah is hard to watch now. When she’s interviewing people, she makes it clear that she’s the billionaire in the room.
its kinda funny at this point... you can almost see dollar bills just randomly falling from the scenery during the interviews(at least those that iv seen in recent times, back in the 70's she was pretty good)
yup, nothing new for old opera windbag though.
I love you more for not liking Oprah! Thank you!❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹
😌
yeah, what _meaningful_ accomplishments did Oprah ever do? other than spread gossip (that's conveniently always elite-friendly)
it is literally impossible to become a billionaire without massively exploiting others
people who think she's charitable are getting majorly smoke screened - it's like thinking Bill Gates is charitable (and not doing it for _PR_ & tax benefits)
I once helped a friend walk his two dogs. He had the giant English mastiff. I had the tall and gorgeous wolf-dog. It was grand. I felt like a king.
That could be the best description of Opra I have ever heard. I find Her painful!!! I love this girl already!!
"one of those shiz dogs you can punch across the room if it got out of line.." That one got me laughing for several minutes. I just wasn't expecting him to say that.
Love these reaction videos! When I had a Chihuahua, I was walking him & stopped to let him do his business and a girl with a german Shepard came up behind us. My little dog attacked the Shepard! I was mortified, the shepard was wimpering & the girl couldn't stop laughing at the sight. I was much more careful walking my little dog after that
5:52 It depends on if you’re getting one from a breeder or pound/shelter. One of my friends had to go through an interview process with the breeder for there Australian Shepherd. It was about three interviews. That dog was a show dogs. 3 out of the 4 dogs I’ve own where strays.
🥰
Most dogs will cost upwards of $1000 to get out of a pound and licensed. It's about the same cost as a breeder.
One of the most brutal (and hilarious) clips of Bill Burr is when he was doing a show in Philly, and the crowd was heckling and booing the other comics, and Bill just went into full attack mode on the crowd, insulting the entire city!
They booed don rickles I think. That made billy boy angry

That was an actual Duracell commercial around 2008 -- I always loved his rundown of it as it's EXACTLY what I thought when I first saw the commercial on TV!

I found it really hilarious when you told me that your dog is so rude to the big dogs. We got our son a teddy bear poodle and he's exactly the same when he sees big dogs. Whenever I'm walking him and he sees a big dog he goes crazy barking at it. I think it's probably because we have alpha dogs.
Man, imagine going to the store and not being able to find disinfecting wipes and toilet paper in the color I like.
I'm so glad I liked and subscribed. Now that will NEVER happen 🙂

Bill Burr is hilarious, but your dry sense of humor is just great!!😂
5:51 - Depends on the area and demand, most places you have to go through an application process, but some areas if the shelters are stressed will relax the requirments.
I liked that bit at the end when you were talking about comedians are just telling jokes. When did we all lose our sense of humor and start to get offended by everything?
About 5-7 yrs ago
I dont know, but for a generation raised on South Park and American Dad it seems inconceivable. You can't say " Hello " without offending someone and then if you don't say it, someone else is offended.
I think that a lot of the better comedians tell stories, and frequently uncomfortable stories. Our laughter is our way of dealing with it.
@@teebes2009 Ricky Gervais is a master of uncomfortable.
Similar to the unexpected dog, I'm always confused by the commercials that show someone gifting a car. I would be pissed if someone got me a car without consulting me. What if I don't like it? How are we paying for it?
Right?! Can you afford the type of fuel it needs etc. Some things are not good surprise gifts no matter how many compilation videos there are cute reactions
I think they addressed that with a truck commercial 1 or 2 years ago where the husband bought a black one for himself and a red 1 for his wife. When she saw them both she squealed and hopped into the black 1. It didn't go quite the way he thought
@@LindaC616 I remember that one, but I don't think that addresses it. Just because she loved it doesn't really offset that fact that he made two major purchases without consulting his partner. Because you normally keep a vehicle for a few years, it's a fairly personal decision what you choose to drive. I remember a few years ago when my mom was looking for a car, I went and test drove a few cars with her. I thought for sure she would go with the chevy, but she choose the subaru even though it was my least favorite of the ones she drove and seemed the least practical for her. I hate driving it, but 11 years later she is still really happy with her choice.
I had a friend who got fired from her volunteer job at a shelter. Seems she was too tough of an advocate for the animals . Noone passed her high standards for adoption & they had too many left 🤪🤣🤣, so yes, at least some shelters have rules to adopt (my friend was just a little overzealous)
that is so funny
This has been the longest
Dad: doesn't want dog
Family: gets a dog anyway
Dad and dog:
Regarding adoption fees for dogs from the pound: many high-kill shelters, when they get full, will have promotions where they waive adoption fees. Sometimes donations are used to subsidize fees for specific dogs that have been around a long time, too. “Empty Kennel” promotions involve free adoption weeks or months.
But most shelters have a fee most of the time.
Its not that difficult. I stayed home just over a year while my wife focused on her career. My kids were 2 and 4 at the time. Seriously the easiest thing in the world i have ever done. I had to end up starting a home business just to stay busy
Being a parent of three teenagers is difficult emotionally. My wife and I are looking back fondly on the preteen years.
He‘s totally right about the big dog sidewalk thing. We have had a Boxer and a Doberman, super friendly and goofy dogs. It’s like the Red Sea sometimes.
Watching this chick react to this was a "different kind of difficult." God if I were a woman I know for certain I wouldn't be working 12 hour shifts 5-6 days a week. Check your privilege ladies.
Most women choose to have babies because they don't want to wage slave.
Meanwhile most men are wage slaving 60 hour weeks because some woman chose to have a baby they now have to pay for.

"i can't think of them yet, but there are some" good argument diane.
Bill Burr real deal legend speaks truth
Oprah is proof of what a hype machine can do for you. There's really nothing special about her but with the right people running the show she has become the media "darling" she is today.
Went to see him in the 3 a few years ago. He's brilliant. The story he says about seat belts still cracks me up
I don't think it's the most difficult.
I think it's easily one of the most important.

What you said about your dog was kinda very nice and special. You understand your dog and you do “preemptive measures”. Wow! a lot of people dont do that. I respect that !!

Bill burr, like all great comedians, hypothetically, hits the nail right on the head. All in good fun comedy, acting.
I really like about you that you have your own opinions, not being influenced by what speech is popular at the moment.
Too many people are taking the popular political opinion and make it so like it's their actual, genuine opinion of the world. You got yourself a subscriber.
looked after two girls, kept the house clean. feed the kids and made lunch for schools, took them to school pick them up after. hard no. i prioritised my time. i worked 12hr shifts at a mine. loved being a stay at home dad...easy peezy
My boy got a Pitbull. She is the most gentle dog we ever had. All the older ladies stop and lean over the fence to talk to her and pet her.
When raised right, guard dog breeds tend be absolute sweethearts. Some of the sweetest dogs I've met have been Pitbulls, Rottweilers, and stuff like that
Your Chewie story reminded me of something. The other day, I was sitting outside by my campfire listening to the coyotes howl and yip. Pretty cool to hear. However, the neighborhood dogs were going BALLISTIC, lol. Barking their stupid heads off...
And I'm thinking "Aww who are you trying to kid?? Acting all tough...Those coyotes would eat you for lunch!"
It's SO true, though, that little dogs freak out when they see other dogs. RUFF RUFF RUFF!!! YAP YAP YAP!!! As often as not, bigger dogs just glance at them, "Okay, buddy- whatever" and just keep walking.
I work with a rescue organization fostering dogs and not only do you have to pay an adoption fee (over $300) but you have to sign a contract with all sorts of stipulations and you have to pass a background check
$30 at a Mississippi dog pound got me a wonderful lab/hound mix. No background check. Just some administrative paperwork. They had neutered him and given him all his shots, all included in the $30 fee. There's a big surplus of pets in Mississippi. Some even get shipped to northern states where there are much fewer. Unfortunately, some are euthanized.
Being a parent is "challenging" at times, but I completely agree with Bill here. After raising two kids to adulthood, I can confidently say that it was not the "most difficult job in the world." Certainly, there were times I questioned my sanity, but... lol.
When I got my first dog, my mom said I had to get one from Operation Kindness. Which are no kill animal shelters in North Dallas. This was in the early 80s and now there are a lot of Operation Kindness shelters all over North Texas and it's the only place I will go if I want to adopt a pet. They require proof that the home the pet is going to is going to be a healthy environment, but that's about it and the animals there are awesome and loving.
Sometimes the truth is offensive. We can either cry about it or roll with it. Choice is yours.
I got 2 pitbulls. One 50 and yhe other is 85 pounds. Both solid muscle and not an ounce of fat. Bill Burr is 1000% correct. People cross streets, open doors, start reaching in their purses. It's awesome! I'm never getting mugged ever again.😁😁
It depends on the State - even the county - but getting a dog, particularly in Middle America, is relatively easy. Especially since a lot of city folk like to dump the dogs they don't want in the country side and make it some poor farmer's problem. A lot of shelters, a lot of dogs. Shelters though, pretty simple. Hell, they even give you a free bowl.
Most of the time, you do gotta jump through hoops to adopt a dog over here.
Firearms ALWAYS require a backround check. unless it's private sale.
In the US on any given weekend, you can find kids giving away puppies or kittens in the front of the supermarket.
