Norm Macdonald explaining to Howard Stern how the president of NBC called him to say he was fired because he was just not funny is wild. I would simply go into hiding forever if a network boss told me that. Norm Macdonald: He said he didn't want me to do update. Why? Because uh um he doesn't think I was funny. Howard Stern: He said that to your face? Norm Macdonald: Yeah, on the phone. He did this. He said to me that that update is like dragging down the show.

Norm Macdonald delivering his final emotional goodbye on David Letterman's show is heartbreaking, and honestly I would simply tear up every single time if I had to say goodbye to an icon like that. Norm Macdonald: Listen folks, this will be my last time on the David Letterman show. Norm Macdonald: We all know that David Letterman was the greatest talk show host who ever lived. Norm Macdonald: Mr. Letterman, he has no truck for the sentimental, but if something is true it is not sentimental, and I say in truth, I love you. David Letterman: Oh my god. No way you watch Norm say that without feeling completely wrecked💔😢

My favorite SNL moment. Norm MacDonald returns to host in 1999 after being fired. Can recite it word for word. “I had sort of a disagreement with management at the NBC. I wanted to keep my job. And they felt the exact opposite.”

Norm Macdonald casually explaining to Conan how Hitler's career was hurt by bad press and why cult leaders always ruin their grift by sleeping around. Conan O'Brien: I've never believed that all press is good press thing. Norm Macdonald: Because of Hitler. I feel it hurt, I feel it hurt his career. Norm Macdonald: And so yeah, it is a little ironic, I don't like using the word ironic because it turns out I always use it wrong, sure, yeah. Norm Macdonald: But these cult leaders, they have a good gig going and they all fall for the same trap, which is they start fucking everybody.

Indifference kills humor. Which is funnier: "This coffee is ok" vs. "This coffee is so bad even Dunkin' wouldn't serve it" Tom Segura explained this to me: "Being annoyed is funny. My seven-year-old is annoyed all the time, and he's hilarious. Sometimes I wonder, 'Why are you so annoyed?' Then he'll say something like, 'What's this table doing in the middle of the room? I keep running into it!' It's a funny perspective to be bothered by furniture. Complaining is definitely funny. What's not funny is total indifference. When it comes to being funny, you simply have to have an opinion.

Norm Macdonald- “Isn’t it weird that you can go to a doctor and say, “you know how I have a cock? I shouldn’t have it. Do you mind cutting it? Nick Swardson- “The best is when you go back in 5 months and say “can I have my cock back?” 😂 😂 😂

Whenever people tell me I'm from 🇨🇦 so shouldn't ever be cold I think of the great Norm Macdonald. Host: “Well, you’re from Canada—this should be like springtime for you.” Norm: “I know, I'm from Canada, but I’m still a human being. It’s not like we evolved differently.”

“It’s funny how it works. I didn’t play great football the first few years of my career, and then I came here to San Francisco, and I learned a ton. And I think because of that year in San Francisco, I was able to learn a ton. Learn from Brock (Purdy) and coach Shanahan.” Sam Darnold on how his year with the 49ers helped him

kyo hated to be called ‘funny’ back then 🥲 ‘You know for the longest time i hated being called ‘funny’, because I was like I don’t what to be considered funny, I want to be considered cool, and like sexy, and like a good singer. I just grown to realize that all those things coexist together, you know what I mean, just because I don’t want to be perceived as funny shouldn’t make me like not act like who I am, because I am funny guy, like, what can I say, and I can’t just act like I’m not, so just that I can be perceived in a more serious way, but I can be perceived serious but also funny at the same time, cause I’m both of the things, period’

Norm Macdonald realizing halfway through an interview that he has no clue how many kids Jerry Seinfeld has is peak comedy. The way he just moves on to talking about legal jargon is why nobody else comes close to his timing. Norm: You don't have a child. Jerry: Pardon me? Norm: You don't have a child. So you don't have to worry about. Jerry: I don't? I have three. Norm: Well, that is what you thought, then. It is honestly impressive how he can just derail a conversation and end up talking about how breaking and entering sounds like a landlord problem.

It was a whirlwind past year for Kim Caldwell. Her first year at Tennessee, giving birth to her son, Conor, midseason. I asked her how the offseason was being a mom. "To be able to spend that time healed me, and I did not even know that I needed to be healed." #LadyVols

Rory MacDonald believes it's best that he didn't win the iconic fight against Robbie Lawler at UFC 189: "The [UFC] invited me [to the Hall of Fame induction]... It was right after I retired and I was being a bit of a baby. I felt like a loser at that point, I lost that fight. What am I gonna go accept an award for losing a fight? It was a great lesson and taught me so much about myself. I don't have any bad feelings at all, and I'm glad it came out the way it did. I think it was meant to be that I didn't win that fight. I don't think it would have been any good for me with where I was at my life at that point to carry that."

REPORTER: “Some people think the president’s funny… Do you think he’s funny?” DAVE CHAPPELLE: “Maybe if he wasn’t president, I’d think that was funny.” “There are funny things about him. Like, if I were to talk about him, it would be funny.” “But I think what he does is so consequential… I’ve never really seen anything, a phenomenon quite like him.” “And I’m not trying to be political, but it’s remarkable.” “I don’t know how funny it is.”

illit's Yunah and Minju congratulated Jeemin on becoming MC Jeemin: Being a music show MC has been kind of a fantasy? of mine, like a dream, ever since I was a trainee. So the fact that I actually get to do it is so unbelievable and amazing. I really still can't believe it. I was even thinking before the article came out, "What if this suddenly falls through and I don't get to do MC?" that's how much I didn't believe it. But then the article came out, and I thought, "Oh, I really did become the MC" That's right. So Yunah unnie congratulated me, and Minju unnie also reached out to congratulate me. I'll have to learn a lot of tips from Minju unnie (about being MC).
