“Hanged"I hung myself today. Hanged? Whatever,the point is I hanged myself today and I’m stillhanging.I feel fine. Just bored. I keep hoping thatsomeone will come home and cut me downbut then I keep remembering that if I knewsomeone like that I wouldn’t be up here. Bitironic, right? Or is that not ironic? I readsomewhere that, like, anything funny is,in some way, ironic. But I don’t know if it'sfunny or not. I don’t think my brain owns“funny”, you know?I feel taller. I like that.I’ve never been away from my shadow forthis long. It had always clung to my feet,parting momentarily for a quick dive intothe swimming pool. But never for fivehours. I like it. There’s three feet of spacebetween my two and the floor.I wanted something this morning. I may bestuck. But at least I’m three feet closer to it.”

About Bo Burnham

American comedian, actor, musician, and filmmaker

Bo Burnham is an American comedian, actor, musician, and filmmaker. His work blends filmmaking with music, sketch comedy, and stand-up, and it often carries a dramatic, satirical, or tragic edge. He is known for combining those forms in ways that leave room for interpretation, rather than settling on a single tone or meaning. That mix has made his work distinct across comedy, performance, and film.
