RIP Norm Macdonald

[Cosmo]

Long-time battle with cancer. Ugh.

 

[Regan MacNeil]

Goddammit. **** cancer.

Still the best late night interview I’ve ever seen.

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

Awwwwww, what a bummer. Guy was great. RIP

Oh no. Loved him on SNL. Me and a friend have been trading Norm's lines as Larry King in USA Today's "News and Views" for 25 years.

"Baltimore is a dirty, ugly city."

 

[Cosmo]

This immediately comes to mind when I think of Norm.



Of course, VERY NSFW and very un-PC.

He was never my cup of tea, but that is terrible news. And 61 isn't that old anymore.

I also think he got a raw deal getting kicked off Weekend Update because Ohlmeyer didn't like his OJ jokes.

 

[Pilot]

Wow, RIP. Always made me laugh hard.

Not sure it holds up, but 16-year-old Pilot thought “Dirty Work” was the height of comedy for awhile.

 

[Scout]

Goddammit. **** cancer.

Still the best late night interview I’ve ever seen.

One of the great joke tellers ever.

RIP

Time to pour one out while watching...

ESPYs 1998. Beautiful. Just beautiful.

RIP, Turd Ferguson

Hopefully Old Harold Delaney can find a new Scrabble partner.

Loved just about everything he did. His Burt Reynolds impression on Celebrity Jeopardy remains among my favorite SNL characters ever.

Wow, stunning news. So sad.

 

[DanielSimpsonDay]

...or so the Germans would have us believe

 

[DanOregon]

On Star Search:


And his Bob Dole on SNL, especially the Real World Chicago was so great. RIP Norm.

 

[Slacker]

Man, what a crusher, seeing that hed pop up.

And what a crushing loss for years to come.
Norm would have been just as hilarious as a geezer, too.
