aw he isn't that sneaky I'm sure I could keep track of him

The trick is luring him with cheese sandwiches so he follows YOU.

[@nunger5054]

I know right? What makes following his ten minutes even more daunting is that everyone else was probably using some of their best material, while Norm was using stuff from contemporary pop culture events. Imagine your best stuff you’ve ever thought of not being able to compete with something Norm had come up with in the last several months? 😂

[@tmm4461]

Now that you mentioned it! Norm often mimicked his favorite comedians. Norm's way of working is in itself fascinating. A comic's comic. A mixture of a traditional joke teller entertainer and a unique trailblazer (though he probably wouldn't like that last part).

[@mr.martyr8573]

Absolutely. It got worse for a couple decades as well, before it got better. Kind of funny that people today are more terrified than ever of everything, when the crime rate is down ~80% since it peaked in the early 90s, after that terrible period, 70s-90s. Social media has us scared of our own shadow, pushing outrage and ignoring anything good
