Very saddened. He was my fave comedian. Fearless.

I apologise again for my lack of awareness of popular culture but I have never heard of him.

I think I've seen him in minor roles in a movie or two. I'm clearly not in this loop

This is what got him fired.

NBC Pres Don Ohlmeyer was close personal friend of NBC employee O. J. Simpson, and he and SNL chief Lorne Michaels kept commanding Norm to eliminate the Juice comments, which only made Norm go out on live American tv every Saturday night and shit all over Orenthal even harder. To see that guy live on national television was to hold your breath. You never knew what was going to come out of his mouth, and he didn’t give a fuck. That’s why he was loved. So many of very best comedians considered him a master and were in awe of him.

This song dropped a month ago. It’s beautiful and fearless, like the man.

This one sucks. I've got his audiobook saved for next quarantine session.

While we are on themes, 17mins of Clinton jokes;

The Vince Foster jokes are priceless. Hard to believe he got away with it by todays standards.

I think about this joke more than any other I've ever seen in standup. Not sure why. It's really good.

Norm’s last tweet.

@dice that was brutal but I agree with the sentiment of who hero’s really are and the overuse of the term.

Norm’s last tweet.

Other than the 160-odd tweets he made after that. This was his final one.

The man was so funny.

His hosting of the ESPYS in the 90s was gold. That OJ joke at the end was..... chef's kiss
