Really, he was a better Burt Reynolds than even Burt Reynolds was. Cancer sucks.

edit - and I spelled his name wrong - no disrespect intended, Norm.

That sucks.

I went to one of his stand up shows a few years back.
One of the funniest comedians ever.

He's going to be missed.

In his 2011 Comedy Central special, “Me Doing Stand-Up,” Macdonald even touched on cancer and the heroic descriptors used around patients.

“In the old days, they’d go, ‘hey, that old man died.’ Now, they go, ‘hey, he lost his battle,’” Macdonald said. “That’s no way to end your life. What a loser that guy was! Last thing he did was lose. He was waging a brave battle but at the end I guess he got kind of cowardly.”

Loved his dry, odd humor. RIP Norm.

Norm was always great. RIP

One of my all time favorites. His appearances on Conan were hilarious.

Loved his dry, odd humor. RIP Norm.

His bit with Larry King was legendary.

For those who haven't seen it. Seriously, such a great man and a horrid loss for the world. Up there with Robin Williams in my opinion.

I decided to rewatch some of the Norm MacDonald Show on Netflix. You really have to wonder if he was stoned to the gills in some of them.

My favourite comedian of all time not named Doug Stanhope was Greg Girlado.

I first heard about him on Last Comic Standing where he was a judge.

Hated him on that, he was way too nice, but fucking loved him doing stand up and roasts.

I'd never heard of Norm before I saw him as a judge on LCS and thought he just wasn't funny and a bit of a dick.

Then I saw his Netflix special and loved it.

The moral of this story is that if you're a comedian don't be a judge on LCS.

Ha me too, didn't even know this was a thing but popped up on my netflix this weekend so started watching them. Some funny stuff for the ones I watched so far... David Spade, Drew Barrymore, Michael Keaton, David Letterman, Chevy Chase, and Judge Judy. Will watch Lorne Michaels but not sure I can stomach Jane Fonda and don't really care about the other two people.

Norm though, just such dry humor I love it. "How'd you like to be a fly on that wall? Can't understand shit and you're always afraid of spiders."
