"Come and watch the skinny kid with a steadily declining mental health and laugh as he attempts to give you what he cannot give himself."

Hitting on Burnham out of the blue with Inside gave me this strange sight of contentment, his classification for his humor feels like an aspect a ton of people may be able to identify with, yet nothing quite like it has still come fully upon...
The most substantial problem I have with this special in particular weren't just the micro aggressive jokes that might've been a good idea to swerve even back in 2016, but the fact that, even though the obvious intent for making the special feel like "too much" or to ask for permission to get away with that sense of intolerability have only that intent, which as a result makes them funny, the show lacks depth, only at the end we got to see that particular self-deprecating style Burnham has grown to become proficient in.
Luckily, that unpolished potential has fully reached its peak now and, at least Bo is self-aware of the problematic jokes.... I even liked some of his jokes in this, so who am I to judge?
