      Last time I saw a note like this, several people could not understand the double negative. I will always miss Norm too. I'm so happy he left so much good material on the net for us to enjoy. I watch some Norm every week.

    Norm Macdonald is my all-time favorite comedian, but Ricky Gervaise's Golden Globe material was the best of this group.

    Back in the 90s I saw both Andrew Dice Clay and Richard Pryor on the same night at the Comedy Store in Hollywood. One of the most memorable evenings of my life. I've never laughed so much in one evening ever. Years later Stanhope came a close second.

    The phone bit was the idea of the show. He thought it would be funny to have his phone ring in the middle of the show and answer it like "hey. Im on live TV". Instead he let it ring and when the hosts said something he called out the producer. 😅

I miss the holy shit out of him.

    That wasn't Norm's phone ringing. The ringing sound was coming through the speakers in the studio. It was a bit set up before he went on, with an over-eager producer. He explains later he didn't even want to do the bit, the producer forced it on him.

    Bill Burr didn't go too far here. Philly would've been a good example for him. You could add Russell Brand GQ award show appearance. Artie on Joe Buck was classic. Thst was definitely a good choice. You could have Greg Giraldo or Jeff Ross in there. You could have Don Rickles. Chris Rock could get honorable mention for throwing shada at Jada. Micheal Richards would be one. I could probably keep going. Nobody beat Norm Macdonald. You could have a liat of top 10 that would be all Norm.
    As a nerd, I would call him "Three Standard Deviations Above the" Norm Macdonald.
