Norm MacDonald Makes Fun Of The Olympics, Tries To Sell His House

Fresh off his genius, sure-to-go-down-in-history-forever roast of Bob Saget, Norm MacDonald went on Leno last night to promote some upcoming stand-up appearances. Norm hit all the topics of the day -- the Olympic fast walkers ("I just did the 18 minute mile!"), the election ("You know what happens to hopes? They're "dashed.") and his house, which is for sale:

Norm MacDonald is SO BACK!

A Pretty Good Kisser

Hahah, my favorite part is when Nastia Luiken comes out and is talking about the whole uneven bars fiasco and Norm interrupts her and goes, "No offense, but that sounds like a bunch of Commie gobbledigook." Hah.

We really need some way to just vote people AWAY. Maybe every three years or so, we get to vote on one celebrity who just has to go away and NEVER come back...work at a gas station or something. That way we won't have to endure these Pauly Shore, Norm Macdonald "returns".

Enough about the genius of Norm MacDonald's roast appearance! "Bad" jokes as being ironically funny is the easiest and laziest form of comedy. It's not "genius". Theodor Kaluza was a genius. Norm MacDonald is a guy who took the easy way out by not having to stand by the quality of his jokes. Cowardice I say. If you're into that form of unfunny comedy, watch X-Play on G4. They're great at being intentionally unfunny.
