My favorite comedian. I was giving a lesson yesterday when my friend sent me a text that simply read "rip norm macdonald." It completely threw me off for the rest of the day. I probably watch something Norm Macdonald-related every day. There's a compilation of his Letterman stuff that I rewatch all the time. Probably my favorite Norm Macdonald appearance was when he was with David Spade on Dennis Miller's show. Probably once a week I think about the exchange where he's saying to Dennis "who has the 4 hour hard cock? The
impotent guy. Me and you have regular cocks and David Spade is over here with a 4 hour hard cock." I crack up every time. Probably a close second is his story about meeting Bill Cosby and giving him his dead father's number so he could invite him to a show.
I also loved his show from the late 90s. I remember being in high school and watching it all the time. His OJ stuff on SNL was killer (no pun intended). Fuck, I loved the guy so much. Such a weird and unique guy. Nobody else is like him. RIP, indeed.
This also hits differently knowing he died of cancer:
