I don’t really know why I am feeling pretty sad about Norm Macdonald’s death, since I don’t have emotions….blame autism.
I usually think celebrity deaths are part of their performance, for some celebs the best part of their performance, you know that final curtain…
I also don’t get upset about death or take it too seriously because that’s the whole beauty of living, never knowing when it will end, so not being prepared for that end, is pretty idiotic…and not keeping that in mind, like it’s actually a GIFT knowing you will die, because it forces you to not take too much too seriously, because it ultimately doesn’t fucking matter and anxiety, stress, work, drama, just disappears….
For whatever reason, our culture is so chicken shit of death, narcissists just want to live forever, we’re trained to fear it, but I am sure there are other cultures out there who embrace it….without fear…and probably live more fulfilling lives….not that I am trying to make this a death post where I preach to you about how you should feel about death, I don’t fucking care, fear it all you want, pretend you’ll live forever or that you’re invincible all you want…it doesn’t matter.
What does matter is that Norm Macdonald was a brilliant comic and I am not just saying that because he’s from Canada, I don’t care about that shit…what I do care about is that he was totally underrated, but was still a comic’s comic….I was on his wikipedia, a reliable source….and it went into how he got fired from Weekend Update for offending the head of NBC by calling OJ Simpson a murderer and other insane jokes…which is why the people loved him….and after SNL…the same team and NBC tried to silence him from promoting his movies because I guess they hated him that much, which means he was SOMEONE worth listening to.
You know, someone who said what he felt, didn’t care about getting sued, was brave….and even later in his career called out the idiotic #MeToo movement only to get cancelled from Jimmy Fallon, his predecessor on update’s late night Cuck Party….because NOT EVERYONE can not give a fuck.
In the above video, Norm, who played Kramer in Man on the Moon with Jim Carrey, got to have lunch on the Psycho set with Jim Carrey where they pranked him.
Jim Carrey posted this on his twitter and I thought it was some feel good energy….RIP NORM!
This was Jim Carrey’s caption:
During the filming of ‘Man On The Moon’, Norm MacDonald came to join me as Andy Kauffman for a lunch on the real porch of the ‘Psycho’ house at Universal and was scare pranked by another famous Norman…
Long live Norm MacDonald!
