      ​@@bensonbright I'd say he was the master of delivering punchlines regardless of where they landed. Sometimes it was the traditional location at the end of the joke, sometimes it came after, and sometimes they were sprinkled throughout the story he told during an otherwise mediocre joke. He took jokes that wouldn't be funny if anyone else told them and made them hilarious.

      I still think Andy might be a homo, because countless hint that Norm MacDonald's digs against them were rooted in deep truths that Norm MacDonald otherwise played dumb to recognizing in them, which made the humor more pervasive and complex. Norm MacDonald was heavily influenced by many folks, including David Letterman, whose wont is to slip in inside jokes that the home audience does not know into much of his humor (the studio audience and/or the crew or guests might be in on David's extra jokes).
