"I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to show it"

one of my favorite comedians
:(

[bwind22]

Oh man! That really sucks! Not only was he one of the brightest young comedians, but he was from my hometown too and we don't get many celebrities from here. This is waaaaay before his time. I wonder if it was drug related?

This sucks....

RIP.

[The STE]

apparently he was way off the deep end with drugs towards the end. Couple people were saying they saw him at a stand up thing recently and it basically amounted to him rambling on stage for an hour. Plus, he talked about him doing drugs in his standup thing. Granted, that's not proof that he DID drugs, but still...

[Marroe]

I dunno if I've ever seen any of his work. I'm sorry for your loss there, Sammy.
*pats Sammy's shoulder to comfort*

"If I had a friend who was a tight rope walker and one day while walking down the street he tripped, I'd find that completely unacceptable."

I'm using that.

I'm using that. Hahaha.....he sounds like he was pretty funny. I may have to check it out.

[ItsAlive75]

I remember once I saw him on Comedy Central, he was talking about Pringles.

"I think Pringles original idea was to sell tennis balls."

It took me about 3 days to figure it out.

[The STE]

Another of my favorites:

"I think Big Foot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. And that's extra scary to me. Somewhere out there is a big, out-of-focus monster roaming the country side. 'Oh, no, he's fuzzy, get out of here!'"

"Someone said, 'here's a picture of me when I was younger.' Every picture of you is of when you were younger. 'Here's a picture of me when I'm older.' You son of a bitch, let me see that camera."

[X¤MurderDoll¤X]

"At my hotel room, my friend came over and asked to use the phone. I said "Certainly." He saidDo I need to dial 9?" I say "Yeah. Especially if it's in the number. You can try four and five back to back real quick."

"My lucky number is four billion. That doesn't come in real handy when you're gambling. "Come on, four billion! Fuck. Seven. I need more dice."

"I went to the park and saw this kid flying a kite. The kid was really excited. I don't know why, that's what they're supposed to do. Now if he had had a chair on the other end of that string, I would have been impressed."

All this crying over Terry Schiavo (where did all the Terry threads disappear to anyway? lol) when Mitch Hedberg dies. :( Mitch made me laugh, Terry just layed there. God's a bastard, he knew I wouldn't care about Schiavo so he did this just to piss me off.

[Sedated_replica]

I don't know.... I really hope this isn't real. It is going to be April Fool's tomorrow....

Of course a comedian would die around april fool's. God has a sick sense of humor.

Mitch is one of my favorites.... I hope this is a hoax

[bloody_ribcut]

sorry four the losses:D

[AUSTIN316426808]

That F'n sucks, I saw him on Comedy Central a few times he was funny as hell.



R.I.P.

If it was justposted on his own personal website or something then maybe it could be a hoax... But I doubt that Yahoo and CNN are playing an April Fools prank on us by saying a relatively unknown comedian died when he really didn't. Unfortunately, it just doesn't seem too likely. :(

I forgot the best part.

"Imagine trying to fly a chair? You'd have to run like a motherfucker."

It was already updated today if you look at the top..

[DannyDreams]

That sucks, but I heard he did die from drugs...heroin. What a fucking moron....someone with that much talent to die of drugs. Of course us pop culture fiends find that cool that someone dies early cause of drugs.

He's an idiot for throwing it away for something so stupid. RIP Mitch you stupid fucker....you made us laugh and then you go and do this.

Oh by the way....Hate Breeder that Calabrese album rules. I was asked to draw that cover but turned it down. Talk about stupid.

No one knows if he died of Herion. Where did you find this out. Who the fuck thinks its cool to die of a herion overdose?

Even if he did die because of drugs. Thats no reason too call him stupid or a fucking moron.

Fuck You. Moreso than usual, fuck you. It is very not fucking cool that he died early, for WHATEVER reason

First paragraph- Pop culture fiends? What the hell is that?

Second paragraph- You're insulting a dead guy for the way he lived his life? Never read a eulogy.

Third paragraph- Y'know, Story of the Year asked me to decal their truck, but I turned it down. God, talk about blah blah blah

No way am I agreeing to matter of whether or not he was an idiot, intellectually... but how many herion adicts do you know? I dated one... its pretty stupid life style. In a heart beat, I will forever call someone who sticks needles in the arms stupid.

Well... since you know so much heroin addicts. You would know that there is more than one way to use heroin... you can smoke it, sniff it, eat it, drink it, and the most known... is using needles.

Did you know that most junkies smoke it? And for dating a addict. you can't spell... heroin or addict. Am I calling you stupid. no

Listen... just because you had one bad experience with one guy, doesn't mean that all junkies are stupid assholes... maybe you shouldn't have dated him? Stupid life style... no doubt

Mitch died of heart failure, not drugs.

My sister sniffed it for years. My ex smoked it and injected it. Thanks for the 'new found info'.
Thanks for catching the spelling mistakes in the passion of sharing.
I NEVER said junkies were assholes. Stupid, Forever!

[Spy Crouch]

I can't believe you're acting as if it's a fucking shock that he did heroin. A lot of his jokes were drug jokes, it's well documented that he was a heavy drug user and had done shows fucked up, and his entire image is based on that of a stoner. It's not something he was hiding.

That said, I could give two shits. He was a brilliant comic, and had the right to make his own decisions. Fuck you for judging it.

Also, he did die of heart failure, and always had a heart condition. However, drugs could have very well been what lead to the eventual heart failure, we don't know yet.

[Sedated_replica]

Do you know how many people each year die of heart failure? not because of drugs?

If it was heroin... he would have died of a overdose?

plus, how can a junkie go on tour? Its almost impossble

[Spy Crouch]

First, I never said that the heart failure was because of drugs. I said it was a possibility.

Second, most of the time an "overdose" is a term used to describe a death in which someone took a large quantity of a drug, and that caused something to occur in their body that killed them, depending on the drug.

Third, musicians go on tour are the fucking time, and are junkies. It's not impossible at all, however, I never even said he was a junkie anyway. I just said it was well known (an openly admitted) that he was a drug user and would sometimes use drugs before shows. It has also been said (i'm not sure where, i'd have to look into it for you) that he had done shows under the influence of various drugs.

shh it's quiet time now. (that's code for shut the fuck up) ;)

I refuse to stand for dead Mitch bashing, especially when you can dead Terry Schiavo bash.

[bloodrayne]

*sigh*...We saw him on television last night....I can't believe he's dead, he was only 37....He looked EXACTLY like Dustin, he even walked like him, it's kinda freaky...And he was Dustin's favorite comedian, too


Anyway...Here are a few quotes:


Mr. Pibb is a poor imitation of Dr. Pepper. Dude didn't even get his degree

I got an ant farm. Them fellas didn't grow shit.

I haven't slept for ten days, because that would be too long.

Last week I helped my friend stay put. It's a lot easier than helping someone move. I just went over to his house and made sure that he did not start to load shit into a truck.

I had a stick of Carefree gum, but it didn't work. I felt pretty good while I was blowing that bubble, but as soon as the gum lost its flavor, I was back to pondering my mortality.

I want to be a race car passenger: just a guy who bugs the driver. "Say man, can I turn on the radio? You should slow down. Why do we gotta keep going in circles? Can I put my feet out the window? Boy, you really like Tide."

I got in an argument with a girlfriend inside of a tent. That's a bad place for an argument, because I tried to walk out, and had to slam the flap.

I type a 101 words a minute. But it's in my own language.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. Run. He's fuzzy. Get outta here.

I was walking down the street with my friend and he said "I hear music." As if there's any other way to take it in.

I used to do drugs. I still do drugs. But I used to, too.

I think Pringles initial intention was to make tennis balls. But on the day that the rubber was supposed to show up, a big truckload of potatoes arrived. But Pringles is a laid back company. They said "Screw it. Cut em up."

A severed foot is the ultimate stocking stuffer.

An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You would never see an "Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order" sign, just "Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience."

Because of Acid, I now know that butter is way better than margarine.

This product that was on TV was available for four easy payments of $19.95. I would like a product that was available for three easy payments and one complicated payment. We can't tell you which payment it is, but one of these payments is going to be really hard.

You know when they have a fishing show on TV? They catch the fish and then let it go. They don't want to eat the fish, they just want to make it late for something.

I would imagine if you could understand Morse Code, a tap dancer would drive you crazy.

I played golf... I did not get a hole in one, but I did hit a guy. That's way more satisfying...

I bought a doughnut and they gave me a receipt for the doughnut... I don't need a receipt for a doughnut. I give you money and you give me the doughnut, end of transaction. We don't need to bring ink and paper into this. I can't imagine a scenario that I would have to prove that I bought a doughnut. To some skeptical friend, Don't even act like I didn't buy a doughnut, I've got the documentation right here... It's in my file at home. ...Under "D".

It's very dangerous to wave to people you don't know because what if they don't have hands? They'll think you're cocky.

I don't own a cell phone or a pager. I just hang around everyone I know, all the time. If someone needs to get ahold of me they just say, "Mitch," and I say, "what" and turn my head slightly...

Alcoholism is a disease, but it's the only one you can get yelled at for having. Damn it Otto, you are an alcoholic. Damn it Otto, you have Lupis... one of those two doesn't sound right.

I was at this casino minding my own business, and this guy came up to me and said, "You're gonna have to move, you're blocking a fire exit." As though if there was a fire, I wasn't gonna run. If you're flammible and have legs, you are never blocking a fire exit.

I have a cheese-shredder at home, which is its positive name. They don't call it by its negative name, which is sponge-ruiner. Because I wanted to clean it, and now I have little bits of sponge that would melt easily over tortilla chips...

If carrots got you drunk, rabbits would be messed-up.

Sometimes I fall asleep at night with my clothes on. I'm going to have all my clothes made out of blankets.

I wish I could play little league now. I'd be way better than before.

I had a bag of fritos, they were texas grilled fritos. These fritos had grill marks on them. They remind me of something, when we used to fire up the barbeque and throw down some fritos. I can still see my dad with the apron on, better flip that frito, dad, you know how I like mine.

I opened-up a yogurt, underneath the lid it said, "Please try again." because they were having a contest that I was unaware of. I thought maybe I opened the yogurt wrong. ...Or maybe Yoplait was trying to inspire me... "Come on Mitchell, don't give up!" An inspirational message from your friends at Yoplait, fruit on the bottom, hope on top.

The next time I move I hope I get a real easy phone number, something like 2222222. People will ask, "Mitch, how do I get a hold of you?" I'll say, "Just press two for a while, when I answer, you'll know that you've pressed two enough."

You know they call corn-on-the-cob, "corn-on-the-cob", but that's how it comes out of the ground. They should just call it corn, and every other type of corn, corn-off-the-cob. It's not like if someone cut off my arm they would call it "Mitch", and then re-attached it, and call it "Mitch-all-together".

On a traffic light yellow means yield, and green means go. On a banana, it's just the opposite, yellow means go ahead, green means stop, and red means, where'd you get that banana?

My friend asked me if I wanted a frozen banana, I said "No, but I want a regular banana later, so, Yeah."

Wow...I had no idea...Must have overlooked this thread before today. I only just discovered his stuff about 2 months ago...downloaded some random comedy tracks on soulseek -heard him do his bit about sesame seeds.
Funny shit.
