Thank you Mr. Burnham.
Dear Bo,
This year I had no idea what I was going to do. I was sad, depressed, and alone. I had an hour long bus ride every day, back and forth from the hell hole they call school. Listening to my iPod, I heard a familiar song that I hadn’t listened to in a while. I don’t remember which song it was, but it was a song off of your original “Bo Burnham” album. I looked through my iPod to find you...

Dear Bo,
I cry every time I listen to Nerds. I replay the part of Words Words Words where you recite Shakespeare time after time. Art is Dead speaks to me more than anything. You’re an inspiration to me. I’m not the most popular girl, I’m not the prettiest, I don’t have the most friends, but I love performing, I love theatre, I love singing, and I love being on stage. You’re an inspiration to me because...

I love Bo Burnham. I’m not trying to brag or anything, but my friend showed me him a long time ago. Before he was on comedy central or even had a CD. When he was first starting out on youtube. I think he is so hilarous and whenever I am in a bad mood he makes me happy. If I ever met him I would probably like, cry. I would love to freaking meet him, hangout with him for a day..I would be the...

I just don’t understand why everybody feels the need to make this an elitist fandom.

A message from a mod.
I just wanted to say that I’m really tired of getting all of these submissions about how someone doesn’t like certain individuals in the fandom, or they feel that some “think they’re better than other in the fandom.” That is not what this blog is for.
It’s for anyone who wishes to post a secret or a letter about/to Bo Burnham, and how affected their life, or...

So after reading some of Bo’s interviews, I feel like he over-thinks everything. Everything he is saying is so carefully packaged, and processed. He is maturing, and evolving as an artist, which I respect fully. But a part of me just falls away, and it’s as though a part of my soul is cracking off. My heart goes out to him, even though I know he isn’t looking for sympathy, or anything really. He...

I truly love Bo and his work.
But sometimes I think he’s really stupid.

I really don’t like a lot of the people of the Bo Burnham fandom. I feel like they invade his personal life too much, even if they have stepped down a bit, and I feel like they think no one could love him as much as they do.

nerds was the only thing that stopped me from hurting myself two days ago.
and no, my ipod didnt magically grow arms and restrain me. it was the thought that although i may be no one special, theres still going to be people who care about me and hope.

Bo-
For the past three years, your songs helped me get through high school. Somehow, just turning on my iPod and getting lost in your lyrics made it bearable. When kids would spit on me and shove me into lockers and just be complete assholes, I’d put on some of your music and it’d make me smile, every time. Art Is Dead and Nerds both give me the chills, but Nerds actually makes me tear up. I...

Bo-
you’re seriously amazing. thanks for all that you do. you’re so sweet to your fans and your music is awesome. you can be hysterically funny, and also very serious in a way that really makes people stop and think. I know you’re probably tired of all your annoying 16 year old girl fans, and even though that’s what I am, I promise i’m not annoying/creepy. being in high school, though, your...

Dear Bo,
Your music is whimsical, funny, and positively great. When I went to see your show, it was one of the greatest nights ever. I swear it was the peak of many many months of stress. And when my friends and I got to meet you after the show, it just made everything in my life better. I’d do anything to relive the night of that show.
My favorite song is Nerds. Though not published, I felt...

I have and will always consider you one of the most genuine people I know. I’ve never met you, but I can just tell that you are by how you respond to all your fans. on here, facebook, twitter, and other ways. I hope to someday meet you.
Admin post.
I feel weird as hell making a post about this, but due to a lot of things, I’m going to stop being an admin and contributing to Bo Burnham Secrets. I don’t want to get into it in a post on here, because that doesn’t seem fair or right, but a lot of things have gone down recently. So it’ll just be down to Katie and Gina, and I know they’ll take care of it, since...

Dear Bo,
ipeepurple:
Nerds is not just a song. It’s so much more than that. I can’t even try to add up how many times I listen to it. And there is not one time I listen to it where I don’t tear up and get goosebumps. All of your fans knew there was this side of you, but you never showed it so well. This song gives us so much more. We love that you’re a comedian and you’re so great at it. But this song,...

Bo + Rachel
I am as sure as a person can be that Bo and Rachel will last. They are just way to cute together for them not to last(knock on wood that i don’t jinkx it). And all that I wish of them is that I can be there when Bo proposes to Rachel.

Bo Burnham just seems like such an intelligent person. It’s a shame he didn’t go to college. Don’t get me wrong, i love his comedy, but i feel like it’s such a waste that he didn’t attend college especially since he had the potential to do so well (im assuming). oh well. what ever makes you happy bo! :)

Dear Bo,
I love your music and all your references. It actually makes me feel intellectually superior over my friends when i am laughing hysterically at your songs and they don’t get half of it.
p.s.
i love the song Art is Dead, that is the song that made me love you more and more and not just your clever lyrics.

Dear Bo,
Sometimes I think that when people are done teaching you specific things in your life, they drift out because they’ve served their purpose, and I can start to feel you drifting out of mine. I don’t know how I feel about that. I’m not sure if I want to let this go, especially because I’ve made some friends through you and they’re slowly slipping away too,...

Bo, you are so fucking awesome.
My family doesn’t approve. They say that you’re homophobic. But I don’t believe it one bit, they don’t even know. Now I sound like a pedophile. Well…bye.

Zach Stone is Gonna Be Famous
I’m so excited that Bo is getting the recognition he deserves. I’m not so excited that said recognition is going to be on MTV, which doesn’t attract the best/smartest of audiences.
Plus, a part of me wants to keep Bo at the level of “fame” he’s currently at. He’s expressed in several interviews that this is the level he’s happy with, and this is the...

You’re helping me make it through the last torturous months of high school. I know it’s awfully strange that you are actually helping someone you’ve never heard of, but thanks for having my back. It means a lot. We’ve got yours, too, by the way.

Art is dead.
Everytime I hear the song Art is Dead, I feel like a bad person for wanting what I want out of my life. And when Bo talks about being a bad person, I can’t help but compare myself to him. Which makes me feel even worse!

I like this change you’re going through, with the beard and all, but I think you look way better clean shaven.

As attractive as Bo Burnham is, I want to sit and have a conversation with him more than I want to fuck him.

A week ago I used the song NERDS as a justification to start cutting again.
I FEEL HORRIBLE.

Dear Bo,
I think I’m growing out of you, and I don’t know what that means. Maybe I’m just growing up.

I feel like other Bo fans hate me because I made a post about singing one of his songs and lots of other fans made fun of me for it. I can’t listen to him now without feeling like crap. Other fans have actually ruined his music for me.

Dear Bo, You taught me that all I need to be successful in this damned world is to be myself. You write these amazing lyrics and I just know if you were known more you could add some serious spark to the world. You are a true artist. You honestly changed my life, Bo, and “Art is Dead” and “Nerds” are my theme songs. One makes me laugh, the other makes me cry. Please, never stop being you. You...

Dear Bo,
I’m sorry I write fan fiction about you. And sorry it’s suddenly overtaken the fandom. If you find it, I hope you never find out who wrote it.

I love everything he writes. I still don’t get some of his jokes. I’m too afraid to ask my friends what they mean because I don’t wanna seem stupid.
Another Mod note:
I think we’re done with the whole “date” vs. “fuck” thing now, alright?
Three posts were enough.
Thanks, everyone.

I don’t want to fuck or date Bo, I’m a big supporter of him and Rachel. I do want to be his best friend though. And maybe I’ll meet someone as great as him and we can date….but Bo specifically, is adorable with Rachel.
Mod note: Yes, those were two separate submissions from two separate people.
