the worst thing about the guy isn't that he's fricking Adam Egets tight boipussy on the side while bullying him on air, it's that he's a hypocrite. He comes off as as this incredibly empathic guy when it comes to things like standing up for Louis, or bashing that smug atheist LA comedian's JK Rowling joke, or not wanting to roast his friends on comedy central by reading some hateful jokes written by ghostwriters. But then he turns into a callous edgelord whenever it suits him.

she had diarrhea in while hanging out with norm and went to shit somewhere and when she got back in the car norm said what smells like shit, and she was embarrassed
Does anyone actually remember jash? It was just youtube bank rolling silverman, tim and eric and a couple other d list comedians in attempt to make them as relevant as smosh. Hardly communist at all. Sarah just dances around the reality of it, because she thinks shes hollywood and too good for nerdy internet shit.

It takes Samberg a few seconds to realize that Norm’s shitting on the show, but he’s the only one who gets it and starts laughing. And then he just starts lobbing softballs for Norm, like bringing up hitler or egging him on about their origin story. Unbelievably good. I wish there’d been more of them.

not necessarily. The David Irving libel case was pretty big news in the 1990s, and the details were reported. You could easily pick up that knowledge just from watching C-Span back in the day, or from someone else telling you some details.
For me it's always >nature abhors a vacuum >Uganda was ruled by Forest Whitaker

I routinely rewatch these. Or the entire Andy Dick interview.

the only reason i dont go back to this everyday and fricking die laughing at it is because Saget fricking snorts snot up his nose really loudly half way through
Could anyone do his semi-fictional biopic justice? Maybe some Cohen brothers-esque absurdist vibe. Not sure anyone could capture his humor though, so might be better to let it be and never try.
>finds his "ghost writer" attempting suicide >insists on remaining in the room so he can have his asphyixiation-wank safely
Norm was great. Amazing how many people seem to believe it was actually ghost-written even though he outright says in an interview that that part was a joke and that he also didn't literally meet the Devil.
This book was very disappointing.
The chapter about his childhood was beautifully written and the stories from his early career were great, but all the Adam Egert stuff was poorly written in comparison and dragged on for way too long, and then it just fricking ends.
For a deep thinker (which he was) the book was very shallow. There's some really great stuff in there and had he cut away the Adam fat and peppered the book more with his insights and thoughts then it'd been great, but the end result turned out lackluster imo.
What does he say about Adam lmfao? Does he go into detail about the Surborough Bridge or whereverthefrick and how he was sucking men off 10 bucks a pop or is it something else? How can a chapter on Egret not be entertaining?
Just listen to the audio book and close your eyes
Just listen to the audio book and close your eyes
I think what anon^ said is the move. I'd love to listen to the audiobook version, where you get the intonation of the writing
>What does he say about Adam lmfao?
Half the book is Norm hanging out with Eget so there's a lot of fun poked at him. But yeah, this is how he's introduced:
>Adam Eget always wears a suit, the kind of suit a poor man thinks a rich man wears. He’s a man who acts like a bigshot but he knows I know what he is. He was a smallfry when I met him and he’s a smallfry now. I’ve known him for a right smart spell, since my days at SNL in New York City, New York. That’s where I found him, making a living underneath the Queensboro Bridge, jerking off punks for fifteen dollars a man. He said he was eighteen at the time, and he looked considerably younger, but he had a car so I made him my assistant. I figured I’d let him work at 30 Rockefeller Center, where his job was to do whatever it was I said—to make all my wishes real. He was good at it. Some men are just born to do other men’s bidding, and Adam Eget is such a man. It’s a gift that pocketed him plenty in the shadow of the bridge. And he can wear his big man’s suit and order around waitresses and busboys all he wants, but it doesn’t impress me one bit. Like I said before, I know what he is and he knows that I know it.
>I notice as we drink our coffee that Adam Eget’s eyes are not on Gabe or on me. He is looking beyond us, somewhere in the middle distance. I just assume he is gazing at his bleak and certain future. But, no, I turn my head and see he is staring at a lady who is waiting to be seated. She is dressed sexy as hell, in a tight dress and high heels. “Fellas,” Adam Eget says, “I think I’ll go and introduce myself to the future Mrs. Adam Eget.” >I wish him good luck and watch as he approaches her, as he offers her a cigarette, as he stands too close to her, but she doesn’t seem to mind. >“Wonder if he’ll close the deal. What are the odds, Gabe?” >Gabe hasn’t been paying attention, as the fried bread and molasses has arrived, but he looks over and studies the pair closely. >“Well, Norm, to answer your question, I’d say the odds are good, but the goods are odd.” >“No way. Seriously, Gabe, you think that’s a dude?” >“Look at the way she dresses and talks and moves. You ever see a lady act that sexy?” >Gabe is right. Only dudes act as sexy as this lady. “I better go warn Adam Eget.” >But it’s too late. They are gone.

I literally laughed before every punctuation. Now Norm's comments comparing himself to Dostoyevski is so much funnier, but it perfectly sounds like Egret as hes portrayed in NML.
He was. He's alluded to it in other ways like the black nail polish on one finger in the podcast for some child abuse awareness cause.
You can also tell just in the way he tells the story. He makes jokes about it as he tells it, but the story is not a punchline in and of itself, it's quite poetically written actually, whereas the parodies he does tell in his book are a lot more fantastical and much more clear to be satire.
The other dude above me is right though, it doesn't really matter either way for the purposes of "if this was a memoir" shit
Norm is my favorite comedian. I've been watching him since I was a kid and just loved how he could tell a story that was always more intereting than the punch line. Apprently I am able to do a convincing impression of him.
Swardson on Norm Macdonald Live is underrated kino. Seemed like Norm genuinely thought he was funny, but also thought he could do better than boner puke comedy. He would've been a much better guest than moron shill Chapelle on the "Goodbye Norm" post-special ep. What's the Reno story?
Nick worked really well because Norm wasn't worried at all about if he felt ignored or insulted. The worst episodes are with people Norm really respects because he's trying to do a serious interview instead of fricking around the entire time.
I love the Simon Helberg episode for this, norm goes off the rails. I think he said later in an interview simon was uninteresting kek. and the animal skit in the beginning is funny as frick.
I was surprised but Fred Willard was the only one that could match Norm. Everytime Norm would try to joke or throw him off, Fred would not miss a beat like he saw it coming, and would keep the conversation flowing.
Outside of Super Dave, because that episode is pure fricking gold, I would agree Fred bounced off of Norm extremely well. He's the only dude that added funny with Norm rather than at the expense of Norm.
>Dave constantly complaining about the shitty quality of the studio >"YOU HAVE 12 viewers" >Norm passing Egret the joke that ends up breaking Dave's character off-camera

This shit was so pricessless. The trick is basically he shatters a glass pitcher instead of pouring a drink. The israeli girl gets her hand cut pretty good and is a decent sport about it, but you can just see how much she is seething. You can tell "oy vey! You'll never work in this town again!" Is on the tip of her tongue the whole time. This is very rare, highly refined cringe kino, my friends.

>Hannibal Burress comes on
Norm's only comment >"This motherfricker dresses like Eddie Murphy, that must mean he has some good jokes!"
What did he mean by this. Seems like he didn't know much of his comedy at the time. As I recall Buress was huge at this point in time
she has a perfect ass, literal perfection. her comedy career is basically dead though, after she dumped her ex husband, who she used to do a live skit show with, she became basically nothing more than a comedic actor, who now doesn't even do comedy roles?
oof, she isn't aging well. the fat is leaving her cheeks and now her hook nose and sly smile are more featured. she's going to be a freak 5 years from now trying to plastic surgery these problems away, just watch
I think he had a connect with the producer. He mentions it on the Sarah Silverman interview. Someone look up this Daniel Kellison fella, he must be one of the based israelites
Somebody looked at the lineup and realized it would completely fricking crash and burn if they didnt throw a wild card in there just to frick with all the mediocre screen talent. And it worked like a charm. Smart move.
Proof: literally the only people who watched this were norm fans and the only people who still discuss it at all (years after the fact and more so than any other small time award show) are the people who fondly remember when he crashed it with no survivors.
>literally the only people who watched this were norm fans
Why are you spewing garbage? The show had millions of views, was worldwide phenom. Peak Youtube days. Nobody knew Norm except a niche at this point. This clipout is from 2013, 2 yrs after it aired.
But who actually owns the rights to NML? Was it legit scrapped off the web cause it got too redpilled? And Netflix had to 'whitewash' it? or did Hulu just buy it?
They just uploaded it all to internet archive. You can go on the podcast's YouTube and donate $5 but they just give you the link to the internet archive.
https://archive.org/details/Norm_Macdonald_Live
any norm fan would have known this for 5-6 years already cmon..
ngmi
I know.
so they scrapped it then? If it's fricking pirate fish, why wouldn't some network pick up s01 for pennies on the dollar? only s01e01 is on youtube. But you gotta dig like a piranha to find the others, if ur not a little savvy.
no, but the "why" is.... They plastered his posthumous special all over gayflix, wouldn't it be a good value buy to purchase to and get his shitty little podcast too and give some money to his estate? Why did they hate s01 so much? They all praise him as the best comedian ever but they wont touch him with a 30ft stick.
jokes aside, do you think other comics felt like shit when they were near norm because they had to compare themselves against him? norm was a tall chad in a sea of manlet comics and i doubt he had to do anything to make them seethe, his presence was enough
I'm into exactly zero sports and I don't see it as a fault at all. In fact I can enjoy his sports show series just for his humour without having any meta understanding of what he's referrencing. The jokes still work
he was a full on sports gay and at one point even belied he could "beat the system" on baseball betting and make it a sure thing. he was an actual betting junkie who started to swim in the delusional coolaide before he was able to break out of it
Yeah he was a full on gambling addict, always has been. Dude threw 60 grand into the ocean to "quit" coz he felt like he was in a movie. At least he claimed to have done, but he always seemed somewhat honest when it came to gambling.
Like he said in that interview "I've lost everything I own three times, but now I've got it under control" or something to that effect
>"I know, I know," Norm replies. "But you have to admit, its is a pretty nice day out."
Holy frick if I didn't know any better id say Norm actually wrote that joke himself.
So I was at a restaurant, as people do when they're hungry. I ordered a succulent meal and the waiter finally brought it to me. He had said "have a great meal", in which I responded "thanks, you too!". And before I could slice my wrists in embarrassment he sat down and shared my dumplings and it was actually kind of a nice evening 🙂
I'll always associate that with Adam Carolla's podcast. They were a super early sponsor and stuck around for a few years (I stopped listening in the late 2010s so they might be back.)

If this is true then why did arabs lobby to be able to mark themselves as white on the census
He IS an Arab you backward mutt. Also Norm only said it twice.
>"I had a show called Nor-"
>"I PLAYED NORM"
Why did he hate it so much? Also anyone know the story of the theme song? It sounds abit like his bat-sandwich song
>Why did he hate it so much?
>I'm an edgy comedian who tells offensive jokes and I signed a three season contract for a sitcom where I tell super safe, suburban church going housewife, safe comedy jokes
I wonder why?
The show was pretty comfy, and had a funny first 2 seasons. Was more edgy than you’re average NBC sitcom.
it was a cash grab, he just wanted to get to three seasons so he can collect syndication money the rest of his life, apparently he was guaranteed it would go 3 but someone israeliteed him at the 5 yard line and cancelled the show lol
just like 9/11 all the stories just came crashing down
It's a Doug and the Slugs song, some Canadian band from the 80s.
>Also anyone know the story of the theme song? It sounds abit like his bat-sandwich song
it's a real song from a band he liked
Max Headroom, Oingo Boingo, Weird Al. What would that style be called?
Was he a holocaust denier?
I know this guy for sure was
Norm dropped way too many references on this. He knew
In the NML Larry King interview he baits dumbfrick Larry into admitting the *oon Landing is a ridiculous concept. He knew some shit
Only someone who has flirted with Holocaust denial a little bit would even be aware of the whole "smokestack shadows" argument kek
When he interviews Lonely Island, pure gold
>"I wouldn't kill Hitler with a time machine, I'm scared I might get lost in his BEAUTIFUL BLUE EYES and follow him."
>Everyone laughs
>"Alright we're told to wrap it up!"
>Everyone else proceeds to clarify how they would indeed kill baby Hitler on the computer-stream
Kek didn't Hitler have brown eyes anyway
He had dark colored hair, but blue eyes. Wouldn’t matter anyway, Norm would have said something even if they called him on something that was incorrect. He always had something to say.
No I just fricked up the quote.
no, people are taught from a young age that he had brown hair and brown eyes so he looks like a hypocrite
the hypocrisy would have been the worst part if it was true imo
>visible dandruff
Hitlerbros...
The thought of killing sixty million people is horrible, yeah, but thank goodness he wasn't a hypocrite
As the allied soldiers surveyed the morbid devastation of the concentration camps, they finally understood the true death toll of the Nazi killing machine. Enraged by the evil they witnessed, the soldiers started to shout, "Hypocrisy! Hypocrisy! Hitler has committed 6 million acts of hypocrisy!"
He had light blue eyes and it was by far his most commented in physical feature by virtually everyone who wrote about their encounters with him, both those that hates and liked him
>Wait they're called Lonely Island? I thought it was just Samberg and The Other Two Guys
Samberg played along.
Yeah I'll give him that, everyone else was clearly horrified and he only backtracked because it seemed like a producer was screaming in his ear lmao
You could tell which comedians Norm respected and which ones he didn't
The best part was when Samberg said
>Yeah you start giving him your full attention and you're like "woah maybe there's something to this guy"
And Norm starts cracking up because Samberg is totally in in it while they laugh at each other.
Hey man, sorry I brought up Hitler
I love their chemistry.
>Norm: “You guys were different because you were already a big hit!”
>Samberg: “Eh, we had a small internet following…”
>Norm: “Oh, so the computer doesn’t really work to make you a big hit?”
It takes Samberg a few seconds to realize that Norm’s shitting on the show, but he’s the only one who gets it and starts laughing. And then he just starts lobbing softballs for Norm, like bringing up hitler or egging him on about their origin story. Unbelievably good. I wish there’d been more of them.
>the computer
everyfricking time. You goddamn well he knows about the internet pretty well too, he slips up and talks about "the biggest show on the internet" at some point but goes back to talking about "the computer".
>"Oh we're live on the computer?"
fricking norm
>>"Oh we're live on the computer?"
My favorite part was Norm saying sorry for bringing up Hitler when he was actually innocent this time around
yeah i think it was an honest mistake on his part because hes so often the one who brings up hitler in conversation that he just forgot he didnt do it this time
not necessarily. The David Irving libel case was pretty big news in the 1990s, and the details were reported. You could easily pick up that knowledge just from watching C-Span back in the day, or from someone else telling you some details.
Blue, according to people who met him.
Tim Dillon, Matt and Shane and the War Mode guys (Matt's brother and their friend) do the same thing. The list of knowers grows
Who?
he had a bar mitzvah
>He's a Russian-Jew, he says. More like "Russian at israelites" - I've never met a bigger holocaust denier than this guy,
Rushin' at israelites, silly goose
Gonna be honest here guys
Adam was my second favorite part of the Norm Macdonald podcast
For me it's always
>nature abhors a vacuum
>Uganda was ruled by Forest Whitaker
or
>Bob Saget meets Dean Martin
I routinely rewatch these. Or the entire Andy Dick interview.
>Bob Saget meets Dean Martin
the only reason i dont go back to this everyday and fricking die laughing at it is because Saget fricking snorts snot up his nose really loudly half way through
Could anyone do his semi-fictional biopic justice? Maybe some Cohen brothers-esque absurdist vibe. Not sure anyone could capture his humor though, so might be better to let it be and never try.
Just listen to the audio book and close your eyes
The audio book in Norm's own voice is Norm's actual Magnum Opus. This audio book nearly killed me while I was driving from laughing too hard.
>finds his "ghost writer" attempting suicide
>insists on remaining in the room so he can have his asphyixiation-wank safely
Norm was great. Amazing how many people seem to believe it was actually ghost-written even though he outright says in an interview that that part was a joke and that he also didn't literally meet the Devil.
This book was very disappointing.
The chapter about his childhood was beautifully written and the stories from his early career were great, but all the Adam Egert stuff was poorly written in comparison and dragged on for way too long, and then it just fricking ends.
For a deep thinker (which he was) the book was very shallow. There's some really great stuff in there and had he cut away the Adam fat and peppered the book more with his insights and thoughts then it'd been great, but the end result turned out lackluster imo.
The ending was beautifully written, then hilariously written
What does he say about Adam lmfao? Does he go into detail about the Surborough Bridge or whereverthefrick and how he was sucking men off 10 bucks a pop or is it something else? How can a chapter on Egret not be entertaining?
I think what anon^ said is the move. I'd love to listen to the audiobook version, where you get the intonation of the writing
>What does he say about Adam lmfao?
Half the book is Norm hanging out with Eget so there's a lot of fun poked at him. But yeah, this is how he's introduced:
>Adam Eget always wears a suit, the kind of suit a poor man thinks a rich man wears. He’s a man who acts like a bigshot but he knows I know what he is. He was a smallfry when I met him and he’s a smallfry now. I’ve known him for a right smart spell, since my days at SNL in New York City, New York. That’s where I found him, making a living underneath the Queensboro Bridge, jerking off punks for fifteen dollars a man. He said he was eighteen at the time, and he looked considerably younger, but he had a car so I made him my assistant. I figured I’d let him work at 30 Rockefeller Center, where his job was to do whatever it was I said—to make all my wishes real. He was good at it. Some men are just born to do other men’s bidding, and Adam Eget is such a man. It’s a gift that pocketed him plenty in the shadow of the bridge. And he can wear his big man’s suit and order around waitresses and busboys all he wants, but it doesn’t impress me one bit. Like I said before, I know what he is and he knows that I know it.
later:
>I notice as we drink our coffee that Adam Eget’s eyes are not on Gabe or on me. He is looking beyond us, somewhere in the middle distance. I just assume he is gazing at his bleak and certain future. But, no, I turn my head and see he is staring at a lady who is waiting to be seated. She is dressed sexy as hell, in a tight dress and high heels. “Fellas,” Adam Eget says, “I think I’ll go and introduce myself to the future Mrs. Adam Eget.”
>I wish him good luck and watch as he approaches her, as he offers her a cigarette, as he stands too close to her, but she doesn’t seem to mind.
>“Wonder if he’ll close the deal. What are the odds, Gabe?”
>Gabe hasn’t been paying attention, as the fried bread and molasses has arrived, but he looks over and studies the pair closely.
>“Well, Norm, to answer your question, I’d say the odds are good, but the goods are odd.”
>“No way. Seriously, Gabe, you think that’s a dude?”
>“Look at the way she dresses and talks and moves. You ever see a lady act that sexy?”
>Gabe is right. Only dudes act as sexy as this lady. “I better go warn Adam Eget.”
>But it’s too late. They are gone.
I literally laughed before every punctuation. Now Norm's comments comparing himself to Dostoyevski is so much funnier, but it perfectly sounds like Egret as hes portrayed in NML.
>had he cut away the Adam fat and peppered the book more with his insights and thoughts
he was writing a comedy novel, not an actual memoir
>but the end result turned out lackluster imo.
Probably a team of editors hacked his original draft to death and took the edge off
cope
if you think norm macdonald was just le edgy comedian you don't understand anything
IDK if Norm was making a really weird joke or if he was really sexually assaulted as a child, makes sense either way
you realise it just doesn't matter either way
i think that was the whole point of the "memoirs"
He was. He's alluded to it in other ways like the black nail polish on one finger in the podcast for some child abuse awareness cause.
You can also tell just in the way he tells the story. He makes jokes about it as he tells it, but the story is not a punchline in and of itself, it's quite poetically written actually, whereas the parodies he does tell in his book are a lot more fantastical and much more clear to be satire.
The other dude above me is right though, it doesn't really matter either way for the purposes of "if this was a memoir" shit
The magician makes me cringe so hard every time... He's so unfunny and untalented, he shouldn't be within a 100 yard radius of Norm. RIP
they weren't jokes he was based and redpilled like us
i miss him
Why was he so servile to the israelites?
All white people are slaves to the israeli masterrace.

TAHITH... chong?
Norm is my favorite comedian. I've been watching him since I was a kid and just loved how he could tell a story that was always more intereting than the punch line. Apprently I am able to do a convincing impression of him.
Just looking at pictures of Norm reminds me of that tragedy...
Watching Dave Chappelle, Adam Sandler, Conan, and David Letterman talk about memories with Norm in his latest special was really sad.
Lose the douchebag
Lose the dick out of your ass
the saddest ive seen is the one where Nick Swardson talks about how one of the last things Norm talked about was moving to Reno with him
Swardson on Norm Macdonald Live is underrated kino. Seemed like Norm genuinely thought he was funny, but also thought he could do better than boner puke comedy. He would've been a much better guest than moron shill Chapelle on the "Goodbye Norm" post-special ep. What's the Reno story?
Nick worked really well because Norm wasn't worried at all about if he felt ignored or insulted. The worst episodes are with people Norm really respects because he's trying to do a serious interview instead of fricking around the entire time.
I love the Simon Helberg episode for this, norm goes off the rails. I think he said later in an interview simon was uninteresting kek. and the animal skit in the beginning is funny as frick.
?t=68
I was surprised but Fred Willard was the only one that could match Norm. Everytime Norm would try to joke or throw him off, Fred would not miss a beat like he saw it coming, and would keep the conversation flowing.
Outside of Super Dave, because that episode is pure fricking gold, I would agree Fred bounced off of Norm extremely well. He's the only dude that added funny with Norm rather than at the expense of Norm.
>Dave constantly complaining about the shitty quality of the studio
>"YOU HAVE 12 viewers"
>Norm passing Egret the joke that ends up breaking Dave's character off-camera
">Where do you get you ideas from?"
It's a 1hr laugh rollercoaster without exception
Did Dave go before Norm?
>Did Dave go before Norm?
Yeah just over 2.5 years beforehand
>not having them all saved on his harddrive to rewatch
shiggydiggy
Just pirate them
My favorite is the later episode when they call him.
>Thanks for calling in Dave.
>YOU CALLED ME, butthole
The absolute best part of that episode
>let's roll the clip
>its a slideshow with leno and fallon
it was literally all down hill from the first episode
it's not that there werent great episodes after Super Dave but it was just so perfect
>ARE YOU SERIOUS?!
>ARE YOU SERIOUS, DID YOU JUST WRITE THAT?!
Some gold plated chains would make a great retirement gift for a really, really good slave
I had never seen Fred outside of shows and movies before and he seemed incredibly funny with Norm. Why is he not bigger?
>the saddest ive seen is the one where Nick Swardson talks about how one of the last things Norm talked about was moving to Reno with him
did norm have a wife and kids?
ex wife, his son is like 32 now and has real college degree in like accounting or something. his manager was lowkey also his gf for the past decade too most likely
>moron magician comes on and says he will fill a pitcher with a drink of their choice
>Norm goes "Fill it with TURKEY 101"
>Magician literally butchers the trick live on air
>Jewess host got a cut in her hand
>"She got cut by a f*cking sorcerer"
WHAT THE FRICK‽
This shit was so pricessless. The trick is basically he shatters a glass pitcher instead of pouring a drink. The israeli girl gets her hand cut pretty good and is a decent sport about it, but you can just see how much she is seething. You can tell "oy vey! You'll never work in this town again!" Is on the tip of her tongue the whole time. This is very rare, highly refined cringe kino, my friends.
Wait, that was intended? I don't think so. Norm going
>"What the frick was that? Mis-direction or something?"
How did he frick up? I felt like that was the trick because its "comedy" magic
Him calling the guy a sorcerer never fails to crack me up.
>Sarah starts sperging about her love of black evil witchcraft
>"I'm being told that we gotta wrap it up so---"
>Norm interrupts "ALL THE STARRRS ARE HERE!" for the third time kek
>Hannibal Burress comes on
Norm's only comment
>"This motherfricker dresses like Eddie Murphy, that must mean he has some good jokes!"
What did he mean by this. Seems like he didn't know much of his comedy at the time. As I recall Buress was huge at this point in time
>norm is worst dressed with the best jokes and is a comedian
>an over dressed "comic" comes on who doesnt have good jokes comes on.
norm says...
>Norm chiming in on the "negative comments on female youtubers"-discussion.
After they ask him
>"Is that you...?"
Norm goes
>"No.... I don't want to give him any attention but...." (picrel)
and that about wraps up Norms appearance on Youtube Big Live Comedy Show
This was the girls' response to Norm's joke btw. I kinda chuckled ngl. idk how much of it was scripted or not
Norm was too good for this world
>I feel like Todd Barry is gonna have a hard time knowing who any of these people are
>that ending
;-;
that makes me tear up like nothing else. what a fricking guy.
Would you?
she has a perfect ass, literal perfection. her comedy career is basically dead though, after she dumped her ex husband, who she used to do a live skit show with, she became basically nothing more than a comedic actor, who now doesn't even do comedy roles?
complete babe though
Where is the ass pic senpai?
literally a complete personification of all the things I find attractive in a woman. so yes.
No I mean the girl in the front, not the blurred blonde in the back, anon.
>what are holocaust jokes
cameraman is a nazi
sure if her and I were the last to enter the gas chambers
Body like a refrigerator
False
cute fridge
kys
nice
oof, she isn't aging well. the fat is leaving her cheeks and now her hook nose and sly smile are more featured. she's going to be a freak 5 years from now trying to plastic surgery these problems away, just watch
Literally chuck schumer
rofl have you seen his "wife"?
her and Gaby Hoffmann aged the same unfortunate way.
literally looks like Ted Cruz as a woman
people asked her if she was pissed about the thing with Norm and she said he was an absolute legend. Did Kassem ever talk about it?
Why did they get him of all people?
I think he had a connect with the producer. He mentions it on the Sarah Silverman interview. Someone look up this Daniel Kellison fella, he must be one of the based israelites
He works with Adam Carolla too. He’s decent. Adam calls him Danny “Two-Sheets”
Somebody looked at the lineup and realized it would completely fricking crash and burn if they didnt throw a wild card in there just to frick with all the mediocre screen talent. And it worked like a charm. Smart move.
Proof: literally the only people who watched this were norm fans and the only people who still discuss it at all (years after the fact and more so than any other small time award show) are the people who fondly remember when he crashed it with no survivors.
>literally the only people who watched this were norm fans
Why are you spewing garbage? The show had millions of views, was worldwide phenom. Peak Youtube days. Nobody knew Norm except a niche at this point. This clipout is from 2013, 2 yrs after it aired.
>Nobody knew Norm except a niche at this point
compared to the total views of the event he was part-taking in at the moment, yes.
>"They played Metallica before the BTS concert"
>"Metallica is not niche"
meant for
>only 1M views
The Norm Show had more viewers and it was awful
Send the original stream link to prove your claim
Fair, but this is the mainshow only tho right? The pre-show was a huge attraction.
Were all the stars there?
can't fire the dwyer
If Norm were still alive he could do his Don King impression at YouTuber boxing events.

Go back to watching George Carlin talk about pussyfarts and saying racism is le bad. That's probably more your speed.
Carlin liked Norm, you dumb Cinemaphile poisoned homosexual
A lot of comedians liked Norm. Doesn't make them funny.
Just because you like sucking wiener doesn't make you good at it.
Norm wasn't a conservative
stop making me want to watch old podcasts that probably aren't even still up you Black folk
archive website has all of NML
any norm fan would have known this for 5-6 years already cmon..

https://archive.org/details/Norm_Macdonald_Live
But who actually owns the rights to NML? Was it legit scrapped off the web cause it got too redpilled? And Netflix had to 'whitewash' it? or did Hulu just buy it?
They just uploaded it all to internet archive. You can go on the podcast's YouTube and donate $5 but they just give you the link to the internet archive.
https://archive.org/details/Norm_Macdonald_Live
I know.
so they scrapped it then? If it's fricking pirate fish, why wouldn't some network pick up s01 for pennies on the dollar? only s01e01 is on youtube. But you gotta dig like a piranha to find the others, if ur not a little savvy.
>so they scrapped it then?
this is news to you? in 2022?
no, but the "why" is.... They plastered his posthumous special all over gayflix, wouldn't it be a good value buy to purchase to and get his shitty little podcast too and give some money to his estate? Why did they hate s01 so much? They all praise him as the best comedian ever but they wont touch him with a 30ft stick.
idk sounds like you just want to get into some political bullshit conversation and i'm not interested
Nice of norm to dress up for the event.
HEY SARAH LISTEN MAN
jokes aside, do you think other comics felt like shit when they were near norm because they had to compare themselves against him? norm was a tall chad in a sea of manlet comics and i doubt he had to do anything to make them seethe, his presence was enough
from what I've heard most comics absolutely revered him
Norm, his mom and his manager/probably girlfriend by venice beach not too long after his cancer diagnosis
;_;
Damn he was a good looking dude even as an older man
How do you know that?
>that video interview of him at his mums house on the couch where she makes them sandwiches
kino
>eats like 6 tomato sandwiches while he's sitting in a lazy chair
Feel bad for his mother, imagine living to see your child grow old and die like that.
Well, I'm no Harley Morenstein.
No offense, but it sounds like some fricking commie gobbledyasiatic
were there any comics at his funeral? did anyone have the balls to do the i didnt even know he was sick bit?
Please tell me what site/program the ai thing is
Anons we should go kill Hitler.. suicide mission. Kill him.
That time that Norm McDonald wrecked Rick Reilly over Twitter
https://awfulannouncing.com/2012-articles/twitter-wars-norm-macdonald-vs-rick-reilly.html
norms one fault was that he was a sportsgay
I'm into exactly zero sports and I don't see it as a fault at all. In fact I can enjoy his sports show series just for his humour without having any meta understanding of what he's referrencing. The jokes still work
he was a full on sports gay and at one point even belied he could "beat the system" on baseball betting and make it a sure thing. he was an actual betting junkie who started to swim in the delusional coolaide before he was able to break out of it
The secret to enjoying sports is gambling
no, the secret is turning it off and easily finding something more enjoyable that isn't crooked and soulless.
wow wait WHAT!?
Norm MACdonald bet on sports?! this is blowing my mind
Yeah he was a full on gambling addict, always has been. Dude threw 60 grand into the ocean to "quit" coz he felt like he was in a movie. At least he claimed to have done, but he always seemed somewhat honest when it came to gambling.
Like he said in that interview "I've lost everything I own three times, but now I've got it under control" or something to that effect
why did the moron throw the clock at the wall?
hitler was the greatest man who ever lived
Toast
incredible
That's genuinely hilarious.
Comedy died with Norm
AI is the future
Classic. I miss Normie so much
Good thread.
>"I know, I know," Norm replies. "But you have to admit, its is a pretty nice day out."
Holy frick if I didn't know any better id say Norm actually wrote that joke himself.
I tried to write a Norm joke the other day
So I was at a restaurant, as people do when they're hungry. I ordered a succulent meal and the waiter finally brought it to me. He had said "have a great meal", in which I responded "thanks, you too!". And before I could slice my wrists in embarrassment he sat down and shared my dumplings and it was actually kind of a nice evening 🙂
Not bad. The "slice my wrists in embarrassment" part isn't very Norm IMO, though.
Is your father is still alive, OP?
I'll always associate that with Adam Carolla's podcast. They were a super early sponsor and stuck around for a few years (I stopped listening in the late 2010s so they might be back.)
what is that product supposed to do?
It's just a grate for your barbecue that's (somehow) supposed to be better.
NO MORE DRY MEAT!
