It got very tedious saying the same jokes in the same way with the same attitude. Norm MacDonald on attitude
Comedy is surprises, so if you're intending to make somebody laugh and they don't laugh, that's funny. Norm MacDonald on funny
I don't really like politics that much. And I like the order and simplicity of sports. They have an ending. You can argue with your friends about it, but in the end you still like sports. I almost love the fantasy world of sports more than the real world. Norm MacDonald on sports
I sort of try to write everything for me. I'm a huge sports fan but have no interest in minutiae. I don't remember who won Super Bowls five years ago or listen to sports talk radio. I'm trying to make sure the jokes are self-contained so they're accessible to everyone. Norm MacDonald on sports
