Yeah, I’ve known about him since high school, and I’m 45.

When Norm was younger he was top shelf. To see him backing somebody so out of control and with such vitriol is unconscionable.

By nearly any applicable definition of the word, barring the super rich, I feel pretty comfortable calling him a successful person.

And I still really enjoy the remake of Longest Yard.

His handler has been with him since his days at SNL. She made sure he showed up - usually late and hung over - to rehearsals and to the show. She then moved to LA when he did to do the same for him on his movies and sitcom.
Along the way, she’s worked herself up the producer title credit ladder and is now getting an…

Well, he was KFC’s Colonel for a brief period of time.

Oh man, that “the victims didn’t have to go through that” thing is a terrible opinion. Because plenty of victims have lost their careers for speaking up and telling the truth, including the ones who were forced to look at Louis CK’s dick.

Norm is the antidote for today’s penchant to look to comedians for insightful social and political commentary. Norm is funny, but why would anyone expect his take on any of these issues to be particularly enlightened?

this is an astoundingly stupid post.

Speaking as a middle-aged straight white dude, hey! Can everybody please stop listening to us? Because we are, largely, a bunch of clueless asshole who are so used to people acting like they’re listening to us that we think we actually know something. You’re essentially enabling our behavior at this point!

I get the sense that rejecting the idea of “handlers” is kind of a big part of Norm’s worldview/appeal.

I mean... I do feel kind of bad for Norma Macdonald’s publicist right about now.

The funny part is Norm is probably baffled why anyone cares what he thinks about this.

I love The Wedding Singer! 

Eh, at least Adam Sandler’s willing to make a good film like Punch Drunk Love or The Meyerowitz Stories once in a while.

Or directing Maximum Overdrive

I really don’t think the attention paid to this yesterday was meant as anything other than amused commentary on a small, human detail near the end of a long election campaign whose outcome is more or less foreordained. “OMG this bagel sounds awful” does not require some great investment of journalistic resources. No…

Fucking smart move in hindsight.

Boy, first there’s no boring-ass scene of Wade reciting lines from ‘War Games’ in Ready Player One, and now this.

Did you ignore the sentence leading up to that? It wasn’t about the humor, it was about the emotional, human stuff being gone. And regardless of what you think about how funny the later seasons were, the show definitely still cared about the characters and could pull off an emotional reaction.
