      the point is people get pissed and dislike videos that have a lot of ads on them and often accuse the uploader of monetizing content they dont own.
      im merely clarifying the content owner monetized the video themselves.

      Crowded diner? Do you think they are just sitting in a normal diner???
      Everything is roped off with 20 stage workers and 3 giant cameras.
      I'd be surprised if there were 10 customers in there, and at far away tables.

    Norm just nails the Kojak delivery of “she was a hooker!”
    The funny parts to me are a) Norm’s build up, of course, b) The randomness of this reference from a show our age group vividly remembers, and C) The specificity of the inflection from Kojak to Crocker. There’s just something so precious here.

      For me it's even funnier when you consider that this never happened at all, he completely made it up, and yet you can picture it clearly happening. I went back to the first few Kojak episodes including the pilot episode and it's simply not there, it's all in Norms head. Genius.

    I think I've finally figured out exactly what is so fucking hysterical about this: 100% delivery. At that small moment when Norm erupts with 'She was a hookah!" it's like he transforms into Telly Savalas before your very eyes. It's like this super-brief, fleeting moment that is razor sharp, and incredibly vivid, and then it's just... gone. The whole thing is this build up to a magical moment of transformation, and it's so absolutely perfect that it just throws a wrench in your brain.

    They said that it is terribly difficult to make Jerry laugh. Norm just has to say "Yeah, the lollipop going" at 00:09 and Seinfeld is already getting ready to pass out laughing. NORM is inimitable, one of the most remarkable that comedy has given us. We are going to miss you a lot.
