minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink-8•6 months agoJust looked him up on YT. First two bits were “there are too many deserts now” and “Norm doesn’t know what metaphors are”. Not offensive but super dated. He was probably very funny in his day.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•6 months agoHe did different sorts of comedy, many of his bits were purposely anti-comedy. For a great example of that, see his roast of Bob Saget. He also told some very dirty and controversial jokes at times, usually with a sly grin on his face like a naughty school kid.
