Sorry Paul Rudd, at R2. You just jelly cos Norm has Paul Newman magic blue eyes and the sum is greater than the parts. Try again.

He looked better as Turd Ferguson

by Anonymousreply 4August 2, 2018 3:36 AM

Are you people all outta your fuckin' minds?! He's a notorious, vicious homophobe, every bit as bad as his idol, Chevy "Pin-Dick" Chase. MacDonald must've done at least 6 or 7 SNL Updates where his one punchline wasa sneering "Oh, anal rape, anal rape, ANAL RAPE!" Even David Spade called him on it.

Maybe he doth protest too much...

Pity he's such a homophobe.

Great, funny guy.

It’s a shame he’s Republican.

If he's a Republican, then he's neither a great nor a funny guy.

What da fuck you doin' on the DL Norm?

I wouldn’t let a few bad jokes and politics get between me and Norm. Oh that man...! Hubba hubba!

Isn’t he Canadian?

Do they have republicans in Canada?

by Anonymousreply 16August 2, 2018 4:26 AM

He's not a republican, he's just really fucked up. Seriously. Hard core mental health issues he'll occasionally admit to in interviews.

He was hot when he was younger.

by Anonymousreply 17August 2, 2018 7:46 AM

Have you seen Norm lately? He appears to have some health issue that’s made him bloated and lethargic, maybe on heavy doses of cortisone for arthritis. Or he’s heavy-drinking? The photo in the OP is unusually flattering. Even in his youth he had a scary ventriloqust dummy face. Yeeech

by Anonymousreply 18August 2, 2018 7:48 AM

Some mental health pills will inflate a body.

He's like Roseanne, I suspect, which may be why he wrote for her reboot show. He's not an Obama fan, and slightly prefers, according to his tweets, Hillary Clinton to Donald Trump.

I wish he weren't so vocal about his politics and homophobia. He reads a lot of drama and comedy, like Shakespeare and Ionesco, and I find that with the scathing wit sexy.

His voice was a career killer.

No, he’s hot, hot, HOT!!!

Several years ago on Twitter he went on a days-long rampage about how it was wrong for people to say Liberace was gay, because Liberace never admitted it AND won his lawsuit against a tabloid that claimed he was gay.

A lot of people thought Norm was trying to make some kind of statement about fame, being closeted, etc. but after a few days it became clear he meant it: he liked Liberace, didn't like gays, and wanted the public to stop calling Liberace gay because it upset him. He eventually said people were "smearing" Liberace (and Burt Reynolds!) as gay for "political reasons."

Any respect I had for him evaporated after that.

A few tweets were saved here, but when the whole thing blew up (things didn't blow up immediately on Twitter back then) Norm deleted everything. He deleted a LOT from his Twitter, nearly daily.

Norm MacDonald may be a devil, OP, but he was never, ever handsome.

by Anonymousreply 25August 2, 2018 2:09 PM

He is one of the great comic minds of any generation. I don’t find him attractive, but he’s also not a homophobe nor a Republican. He always goes for the joke. Simple as that

by Anonymousreply 26August 2, 2018 2:22 PM

He's both homophobe and Republican, r26. Why lie about it?

by Anonymousreply 27August 2, 2018 2:25 PM

Because you’re the only one who ever claims it with zero evidence to back it up?

by Anonymousreply 28August 2, 2018 2:28 PM

He had no problem hinting at Chris’s Kattan’s sexuality...sounds like a hypocrite to me...and he’s not really that funny. David Spade does the bitchy heterosexual man schtick better than him...

by Anonymousreply 29August 2, 2018 2:41 PM

Norm MacDonald claims he's never been a conservative but he also can't vote because he's Canadian, so he can pretty much say anything and have it be technically true.

But he also has said that HRC was a bad person to use the term "deplorable," that she "called half the country racist," was "coronated" by the DNC, was "stupid," etc. He continued that Trump was denied "victories" by the press so people naturally felt sorry for him because he was a victim, that he can't really start a war on his own so he's not dangerous or anything, that Trump will become "beloved" because he's just a guy who wants to be loved.

Norm MacDonald fakes being drunk so he can grope women, by his own admission. He got mad at a gay comedian making fun of the Bible and complains constantly about atheists being boring and smug.

And in this interview from 2015 he talks about how much he hates Trump for being racist and fascist, but in 2016 (linked above) suddenly he's very positive about Trump and Trump's supporters.

Here's Norm saying women aren't good at comedy (which he's said repeatedly over the years), that protests are bad, that Charles Manson is funny, Nazis are interesting, alt-right talking heads like Tucker and Limbaugh are just fun, harmless entertainers chuckling to themselves, but Kathy Griffin's stunt with the Trump mask was grotesque and terrible and the exact same ethical/moral malfeasance as Anthony Weiner fucking teenaged girls.

Oh, and Trump isn't a fascist and this isn't a coup, it's actually the LIBERALS who are trying to pull off a coup by wanting to impeach Trump for no reason at all.

Anyway, Little Mr. R28, tell me again how everyone is just making up the fact that Norm MacDonald is a rightwinger?

I don't remember anything about anal rape jokes.

I knew Norm fairly well when he was on SNL, and I really liked him And he is NOTHING like Chevy Chase. He couldn't be less like him if he tried. One thing is that he is smart af, and he has broad knowledge about so many different things it's ridiculous.

Look, nobody's perfect, and if you could show some verification about the anal rape stuff will apologize for doubting you. He was never going for the easy homophobic joke back in the frat boy days of Farley, Spade and Sandler--and back then that was constantly done.

by Anonymousreply 33August 4, 2018 1:41 PM

I honestly never thought he was the least bit cute. He looked slightly inbred to me.

by Anonymousreply 34August 4, 2018 1:45 PM

Not good looking at all, and extremely annoying mannerisms.

WRONG! R35. He’s so creamy, dreamy, and cuddly. When he smiles, he makes me feel warm inside. I hope he didn’t say all the stuff you guys say he did.

Drink your Metamucil Norm. Then nap time. All this typing isn't good for the eyes.

I definitely remember the anal rape prison jokes. It was kind of one of his running things like Germans love David Hasselhoff. But I didn’t take them as homophobic per se. I’m gay but would fear anal rape in prison. I’m sure there was a gay panic element underlying the jokes but it was the 90s and that was still common unfortunately.

Dennis Miller joked on Fox News that gay men probably would enjoy prison because of the forced gay sex. I find that much more offensive than MacDonald’s jokes.

by Anonymousreply 38August 4, 2018 2:06 PM

Did he get a face lift or is that fillers?

Dennis Miller was hawt back in the day. Is Norm gay? I hope not cause he's always been ugly.

The subject is incredibly obscure, so for reference MacDonald was a cast member on "Saturday Night Live" 20-25 years ago. Talk about random..

His looks are a moot point now. He has lost whatever he had in his younger days. And it's not just age.

I guess there's someone for everyone. I've never found Norm remotely attractive, but he definitely struck his own path in comedy. He's also one of the most reliably funny, oddball talk show guests. You can easily find dozens of his (mostly Conan and Letterman) appearances on YT in which you can tell the hosts are so happy to have such a funny guest on.

R45, he's hilarious there. The deeply closeted gay man routine is conceptually brilliant. I laughed out loud.

R33 you’re right because Chevy has always been a big time liberal, whatever his chauvinist asshole ways may be.

Didn’t he get fired because Don Ohlemeyer (sp) was friends with OJ Simpson and he thought Norm’s jokes went too far?

I think he kind of has martyr status because of that.

He also did a good Burt Reynolds impression.

Isn't he from close to the arctic border? Explains a lot especially the pan cheekbones.

People from the north are usually superior and progressive from weather conditions alone. However, progressive is a slower, more thought out drama in the US. He didn't get that memo. He's obviously not American.

by Anonymousreply 63August 5, 2018 10:43 AM

I liked his dry humor but he really seems to have some personal issues. I think he is smarter and wittier than Letterman but his offbeat approach has gotten in the way and that’s why he never achieved widespread success. I don’t nesscesarily think he his homophobic or stereotypically right wing. He kind of plays a character but has an expansive, unexpected way of thinking about things behind that character which I like. He is certainly more intelligent than Sandler, etc.

by Anonymousreply 64August 16, 2018 11:29 PM

Oh god no, he was hideous - even more so now.

[quote] But you know what hurts the most, pal, you know what? I trusted you, that’s what hurts the most. Well, actually the, uh, anal rape hurt the most. But trusting you is second.

That's a pretty funny joke imo,and I don't really see what's homophobic about it.

[r64] This has gotta be you, Norm. Fanboy here! Your novella [italic] Tiny White Coffin [/italic] was brilliant, up their with Steinbeck, Hemingway and Faulkner, but sadly you’ll be remembered mostly for your weekend update jokes about “Michael Jackson: gay pedophile.”
