upset over this. Dirty Work is always playing in this house once a week on top of other stuff he was in
Darn  
GMAN56 : 9/14/2021 2:37 pm : link
BBI breaking this news first before the real news I just perused a few minutes before.

Such a talent that I always enjoyed and got his weird sense of humor.

Dirty Work still remains one of my favorite comedies.

Heaven just got a little bit more funnier.

Truly one of the greats, in an era were comedy is shifting more towards shock value and volume - he kept to his style. And nobody could craft and deliver a joke better

Wow

I did not know he was fighting Cancer
awful  
Banks : 9/14/2021 3:47 pm : link
I frequently watch him on youtube. Even things I've seen many times before. He was funny in everything he did. A very sincere RIP.
one of my absolute favorites  
Osi Osi Osi OyOyOy : 9/14/2021 3:48 pm : link
this one hurts so bad.

The delivery, the voice, the balance of vulgar/"classy", the long-form jokes that he would tell... he truly had a style of his own that no one else in today's comedy world really tried to replicate.

I would often go on YouTube binges where I'd watch sets, interviews he had with Conan, podcasts he did/was on... he was just so damn good at dropping bombs out of nowhere and making you burst out laughing. I just recently saw his "Dog the Bounty Hunter" comments on Dennis Miller after Dog was outed as a racist, just the way he effortlessly destroyed was just different.

This one really stinks. I was such a big fan of his. He was just way too young. RIP Norm, you were a legend.
I saw him a bunch of years ago at the Nokia Theater  
Section331 : 9/14/2021 3:49 pm : link
in midtown. I always liked him, but thought he was a little hit or miss, but seeing him live gave me a real appreciation for his talent. He did so much improvising, and you can see him going off on a tangent. Some times it didn't work, but far more often it did. Very sad news, a really talented guy. RIP and fuck cancer.

Apprently he's had it for ten years but never told anyone because he wanted attention only for his comedy.
Classic

Artie outlived Norm. Who would have thought that?
Wow

I had no idea people around here liked him as much as I do. The world lost one of the absolute greats.

he will be missed  
KDavies : 9/14/2021 4:32 pm : link
one of the few funny comedians that was left IMO. Too many try to be politically correct, which results in them not being very funny, to put it mildly.

He didn't give a damn.
Easily  
DanMetroMan : 9/14/2021 4:45 pm : link
one of the funniest comedians I've ever seen live. Patrice another. Greg Giraldo was also hilarious. Sadly, I've yet to see Chappelle. Saw Jim Breuer and didn't laugh once. Jim Norton is great live too.

I'm not a doctor, but I'm pretty sure... if you die, the cancer also dies at exactly the same time. So that to me is not a loss; that's a draw. It's not like... the cancer's going to jump up and go, "Arrrgh I fucked Uncle Bert's wife, where is he? I won fair and square."

Me and my buddy reference and quote from that all the time.
It's one of my favs too. It's so cheap low budget looking and juvenile and politically incorrect and Norm was (admittedly) a terrible actor. The critics *hated it* but I love it for those exact reasons.
That sucks

Artie Lange outlives everyone else from that cast.
You know what hurts the most? The lack of the respect.
