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

one of my favorite comedians
:(

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.

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...

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.

Hahaha.....he sounds like he was pretty funny. I may have to check it out.

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.

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."

"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.

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

sorry four the losses:D

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



R.I.P.

is hell funny

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. :(

so you've never heard anybody say...

hot as hell
cold as hell
funny as hell
hard as hell
far as hell
ect. ect.

That's F'n hilarious

yeah i heard it, but im asking you the question. is hell funny?

I find it funny that people who spend their lives being assholes are suppose to go there.

where did you hear that?:confused:

nevermind

bloody_ribcut is a dumb bitch. I can't STAND all your stupid posts.

leave this site. I hate you

I forgot the best part.

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

Re: Mitch Headburg died
 

i heard he died on stage...




*snicker*

WHAT!?!?!??!

He couldnt have died...wouldnt it say something about it on his official site?

how's he gonna update his site .... if he's dead ?

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

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.

what the hell gives you that idea?

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!

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.

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

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.

Yeah um, NO.

Thanks anyway.

shut the fuck up please? pretty please, with a cherry on top? ;)

aww come on.
