You absolutely can NOT steal a Norm McDonald joke! It's Norm's delivery that makes it funny...Norm McDonald is the funniest comedian around today!!!

[@nimimerkillinen]

nah, i dont like his softly smug style

[@R.J.MacReady1982]

Was. Rip the guy the chunk and the coal of comedy.

[@thedumbguncollector5546]

Ron white stole his tiger bit. But Norm stole a few from Drake Sather, but they were longtime friends and drake was long dead.

[@aussiemenace1924]

If Drake was a longtime dead friend. Then it's an Homage, not stealing. @thedumbguncollector5546

​@@R.J.MacReady1982 oh really? I didn't even know he was sick.

[@Marius-vw9hp]

Norm MacDonald definitely dont care. He says himself, on his own KZbin channel, that you cant own a joke and makes fun of Joe Rogan for bring so agressive about the joke stealing subject.

+Marius VanDamme link?

[@yaimcjsdad]

The argument for stealing jokes and making money off of them would be the same argument as stealing someone’s song. You listen to music to enjoy it. So should we not care if you steal somebody’s song and make money off of it?

[@robertknight3354]

It was absolutely stealing. These people are idiots. It wasn't a "joke" in that way. It was a humorous long personal observation. He copied Norms thoughts. Passed it off as his own. It wasn't a technical joke. Those are open to be passed down.

[@Sensualfr0g]

In regards to Norm I didn’t even know he was sick :(

[@bar1395]

The girl is horrible.

[@bigmoose99]

I thought she made great points and what a lovely voice

[@Joe-ee8hn]

I only heard this show once and it is enough. The girl may or may not have talent but in this clip she is not good. The people on this show like to hear themselves talk.

[@brownhooque]

This show sounds horrible. The chick obviously knows NOTHING about comedy or stand up. Having your work stolen from you has nothing to do with ego. That was a really dumb comment. And then the old guy thinks he invented the stand up. That Mr. T joke was fucking terrible.

[@judasiscariot2648]

Ross Rubio their clueless, not even real comics the weird old guy said it himself.

[@SpiderCents]

After a listening to Tonys version of Norms bomb drop, it’s nothing more than a hat tip to Norm if you ask me. Norm is a legend without filter, if he thought it would get people to laugh he would do it regardless of repercussions. In the end, He wouldn’t have cared a single bit granted people were laughing. He was the king of not giving af, the world needs more comedians like Norm. Stop with the filters rules and canceling. Here’s Norm mastering the Art of not giving AF. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGq8kqafbp6hY9E

That Janice joke will never be matched, the delivery norm pulled on that joke was mint, I watch that joke all the time , I know it word for word . Btw norm doesn’t give a shit , he doesn’t write those jokes , he delivers them in way that can’t never be matched , norm himself said that those jokes aren’t his so they can’t be stolen , what can be stolen , is the delivery but trying to counterfeit norms natural delivery it practically impossible Norm the GOaT!!!

[@JosephScott-ct9sw]

Norm wrote "Janice" and was very proud that he did

[@MRGOONBONES]

MARK NORMAND WOULD BE NOTHING WITHOUT NORM MACDONALD'S DELIVERY. DOESN'T EVEN TRY TO HIDE THE STOLEN MANNERISMS.

Ben Franklin's theory on thoughts and ideas... in the 80's I started the Premise of parents or lived ones using all 3 of your names.. it's a relatable topic that probably had been used and is still being used as well it should Norm Made it his

[@fruitlandgrizzly]

Tony Hinchcliff stealing jokes? Not a chance

[@bigmoose99]

Seems like a trustworthy stand up “guy”

[@mobilemechanics6565]

as someone who apriciates Norm, he didn't care he had like 8 hours. and he thought it was funny to do all his openers material just to see them bomb.

[@beetlejews]

You don’t know Norm weirdo

[@mobilemechanics6565]

@@beetlejews who said I did only shook his hand once.

[@alcapone5876]

No, you cant steal Norm's Jokes. Just like you're stealing views by putting his name in the tittle. >Norm God Tier >Top Tier >Mid Tier >Low Tier >Shit Tier >Carrot top >The People on this Shity Podcast

[@scottytoohotty7617]

Hingecliffe is pretty funny, I'm pretty sure this was a coincidence. Tony is funny off the cuff..
