i love his delivery, and i've had a good laugh at a lot of his jokes, but often it's just the delivery that makes what he's saying funny.

Of course it's mostly the delivery, but he was one funny drug addict.
I got several specials and some records, and I love it. I don't know, I just enjoy the overall lightheartedness of his humor.

And his shyness on stage is just... cute?

All those things you mentioned is probably why I don't find him funny.

Sometimes I think this guy is hilarious and other times (like now) he seems totally blah.

I loves loves loved him.
I wrote about him in an article recently.
I said, something like ‘I had to concede thinking I had caught this band on a bad night, but letting the audience know your material is better then their applause implied is reserved for Mitch Hedberg, and he’s dead now.’


i'm SO funny i should be dead.
hey lets make a thread!

That's exactly why he's awesome.

Funny but not that funny. If he hadn't died no one would have paid any attention to him.

my roommate and i were watching mitch a couple of weeks ago and i said "too bad hes dead" and he was like "what mitch is dead?"

i also didn't know he was dead when i first got into him. i was quite disappointed to find out.
so i guess that argument sucks.

mitch was quoted pretty frequently in high school before he died

i dont think his popularity kicked up much after his death, it felt like he was starting to get popular and then he passed away

my friend said something about going to see him and then he died later that year. too bad i didn't go. i thought his material was pretty good.

Monte why does it seem that every thread i open up has some negative asshole opinion from you?

anyone else get the new CD this week?




\/ WARNING: new CD spoiler below \/




I love when he's talking about his belt and his pants and his belt loops...

"My belt holds up my pants, but my pants have belt loops that hold up the belt. What the fuck is really going on down there??? Who is THE REAL hero???" :D

I cried when he passed away. I saw him perform in person and it happened about a month or so later. I've always liked him. :'(

yesterday me and one of my biggest mitch fan friends got baked, bought like 15 dollars of junk food, put the new album on and sat around just listening.

and it let us down. only had a few highlights.

so we watched 4 episodes of lucky louie to make up for it.
