This one sucked. But he kept it private and did it on his terms. Not surprising at all. Thanks Norm for bringing some smiles to the world, it was appreciated. RIP

Damn! Norm reminded me a lot of Charles Grodin, who also died this year. Not a good year for dead-pan comics.
Another good one gone.
Simple straight jokes with fewer words and a slow presentation. Lost art
YES! THAT was his art, and he was indeed the master at his craft. A true legend.

The tributes have been impressive. Look at the amount of funny people in Spade’s post alone.

I know it’s such a small part of who he was but Turd Ferguson was just cry out loud funny. “Why don’t you give me ape tit for $200” ������
I still call it The Jake.
just fell down a bit of a Norm rabbit hole. Apparently there were 15 Celeb Jeapordy skits on SNL. Norm was in 6, but co-wrote all of them.
All the Sean Connery vs Trebek jokes. Norm's influence.
What a legend.
I had no idea Bob Dole was still alive. Bob Dole says Bob Dole likes Norms impression of Bob Dole.
One of the most hilarious impressions ever
I still call it The Jake.
swing your fucking sword.
Norm was a master of his craft. RIP
I’m thankful he left us with so much to laugh at.
the best poker face ever
RIP

I didn’t know he was deeply closeted
I also remember when comedy was funny. RIP Norm.
Kill all the telemarkers
But they’ll put us in jail if we kill all the telemarkers
Telemarketers! Kill the telemarketers!
Oh we can do that. We don’t even need a reason
Agree with everyone else. He was was of the funniest people ever to walk the planet.
The View was so cringy and he could not be stopped. Just when Babs told him to shut up, he's like "murderer."
But my favorite will always be the Conan/Courtney Thorne-Smith one. It's very funny, but the "..is spelled b-o-r-e-d." is fucking brilliant; one of the best impromptu single lines ever. It's off the cuff, it's not vulgar, it's not schtick, there's no "shock" in it...it just a comedy genius at his best. I've prolly watched that clip 200x over the years and still crack up.
The world is definitely less funny today.
It makes perfect sense...until you think about it.
I suspect there's logic behind the madness, but I'm too dumb to see it.
