Gut punch.
Norm's book was one of my favorite reads of all time.
Just the other day I went down a YouTube rabbit hole of watching him on various talk shows over the years. And every time I watch his final appearance on Letterman, I get choked up a bit, because Norm did. Always gives me goosebumps.
A celebrity death that's actually going to affect me for a long time.

Norm on the Daily Show after the Crocodile Hunter died...not sure I've ever laughed so hard at a talk show in my life.
"Some fruity fish."

His roast of Bob Saget, where a producer told him to "go up there and be shocking" so he did the entire set with poorly delivered jokes from a book his dad gave him called Jokes for Retirement Parties, was brilliant.
Man was a legend.

Norm was the best. Has been my favorite for a long time. Blindsided by this one. 
I literally asked a friend last week “I wonder if that Norm McDonald Netflix show got picked up for a 2nd season it was pretty funny”. Jesus
One of the best bits of comedy in history. Amazing.
Or so the Germans would have us believe…
There's a bartender at Bourbon on Rye that has Norm MacDonald's voice. It's uncanny. We brought it up to him and he said he gets multiple comments a day about it. So, Norm lives on through that guy, I guess.
That bartender’s name? You guessed it - Frank Stallone.
His Dave Letterman impression from SNL where he would say "ya got any gum" is something I use all the time.
- Norm was a comedian’s comedian- as evidenced by King Llama’s affection for him. An all-timer.
- Just got back from my baby’s one-year appointment which meant four shots and a finger prick. Awful. Absolutely awful. Poor little girl. Those pediatrician medical assistants must have ice in their veins.
- Love a sitcom that can deftly dip into melancholy once in awhile. “Scrubs” was always tremendous at it and “Ted Lasso” has it, too.
- Bring back the white Game hat.
- So the coeds are now wearing sports bras with mom jeans - basically a call back to early 90s Janet Jackson? Interesting.
- Been throwing it back to some Oasis lately. I would place “Champagne Supernova” ever so slightly over “Wonderwall.”

ESPYs in ‘98:
“Michael Jordan is considering retiring, which is bad for Bulls fans but good for golf hustlers.”

K. I wasnt asking your opinion as much as I was simply stating that which is true.
-MacDonald was top notch. His Weekend Update on SNL was hysterical.
- I have no clue whatsoever what TED LASSO is about and I’m not going to find out.

It’s a funny *** show, but congrats on keeping it real.
Richie if you’re too cool for a funny show about sports, not sure what to tell you.
I personally love funny shows about sports. Ted Lasso just isn't one of them.
Good for you guys for enjoying. 3.5 episodes was enough for Dad.

Norm McDonald was the comedian that all other comedians thought was funny. RIP
I still use “Duh Magazine” more than I should.
“Dirty Work” was an underrated movie.
