That's what I thought too but that doesn't show respect. You know who never got any respect & was funny? Rodney Dangerfield that's who never got respect at all.

Kind of a one trick pony but at least he wasn't a joke thief like Amy Schumer.

From a personal perspective? A philosophical perspective? A religious perspective? A genetic perspective?

Does a homosexual agree with your lifestyle? Should a homosexual agree with your lifestyle? What is your lifestyle? Who should agree with it?

Who?

Apparently, he took his mom's advice about getting that puss off his face literally.




I looked up some of his more recent stuff, and he's doing a lot more blue material than I remember. Not as funny, imo.

No he didn't play for the Who he was a comedian hardly anyone ever heard of not a musician. I've never heard of him till this thread, but he didn't play for the Who.

Ok, but lets try this:


No. Who is on first. Kevin Meaney is out.

I heard him tell that story on "The Bob and Tom Show" a few years ago, pretty wild that the wife stayed on as his manager, no hard feelings at all

The first thing I always think of with that guy is "your father never said that!"

RIP

I just watched Big this morning and saw him. Didn't realized he passed. bummer.

he was one of the many comics I used to watch as a young teen on HBO Comedy Hour type shows. I remember him, Judy Gold, Louie Anderson, Kevin Pollack, Dom Irrera, Rita Rudner, Paula Poundstone, Richard Jeni etc.

Who? /CP ;)

He seems vaguely familiar but I have no idea who he is

Of being deceased?

Yah I hear it's pretty hard on your health

That's really meany

Really, I only recall him because he was good friends with a lot of other comedians I listen to, and they bring him up or interview him on occasion.

I didn't post this condolence thread to suggest he's as big a tragedy as Prince or anything. Just that it was sudden, he was relatively young, and his story is a bit of bittersweet human interest.

I mean the 'oddity' of being gay aside, the notion of not even realizing that gay was possible until your mid-50s, then embracing it wholeheartedly, is an even greater oddity in the current day.

I'm just trying to remember...I've had HBO like even when I was a kid and watched a ton of stand up.

It just seems like I should know this guy from the name alone....but even after the Carson clip I can't quite place him. It's more likely my memory , I'm sure I saw him at some point...just bugs me I don't remember
