My local station is going to be pissed, he was on the radio here all the time.. i've gotta email them. I know a few people that work there :(
 
That sucks, I keep thinking he's this other comedian I like. The dude that plays guitar while doing his routine, and he's done skits for Conan a few times. Oh well, RIP.
 
UNREAL!!!!!!!!!!!!

He was one of my favorite comedians!!!
I was just talking about him the other day, telling a friend that he had to see this guy perform.

I am deeply hurt by this.
Man!!!!!!!!!!!

Life sucks!!!!
Maybe the sales of his DVD will be used to aid his family.
What a waste.
I'm devoting a minute of silence for him.
Poor guy.
 
Damn dude, he was just in town here on the 6th and 7th at Zanie's..

No response from the DJ, which is odd. He usually emails right back. They're playing a kickass line of songs, though. "The Hand That Feeds" followed by "Love Rollercoaster"..
 
To each their own.
This guy was so subtle, it hurt.
His jokes were very well planned, and some were over most peoples' heads.
Or, so I'm told.

Given a few breaks,... this guy would have been a huge personality,... although I think he was grand nonetheless.

The single comedian, who lost his life, that touched me the most was John Candy. I actually cried.
John actually had a place in my heart, and although it was confusing, I now know why.

These comedians sometimes touch us where we least expect them to.
They open us up, and reveal our vulnerabilities. Emotions are usually hidden well from people around us,... but toss an amazing comedian up on stage, and watch the sternest prick squeal like a girl.

I feel very sad at this announcement, and I regret not being able to applaud the man in person.
May he rest in peace.
 
Fark's headline is saying he died from a heart attack.

Sheesh. I better stop eating all that fast food.
 
It's a shame that someone who is actually funny is now dead, and Dave Chappelle is still out doing "comedy."

I didn't recognize the name right away, but once I saw a picture and read these quotes, I remembered who he was.


Some fun quotes from www.twincities.com:


I tried walking into a Target, but I missed.

I once saw a forklift lift a crate of forks. And it was way too literal for ME.

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

I was walking down the street with my friend and he said "I hear music." As though there's any other way to take it in. You're not special. That's how I receive it too...I tried to taste it, but it did not work.

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.

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

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

This shirt is dry clean only. Which means...it's dirty.

I love blackjack. But I'm not addicted to gambling. I'm addicted to sitting in a semi circle.

One time a guy handed me a picture of himself and he 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. How'd you pull that off? Let me see that camera.

I think foosball is a combination of soccer and shish kabobs.

A severed foot is the ultimate stocking stuffer.

My friend said to me, "You know what I like? Mashed potatoes." I was like, "Dude, you have to give me time to guess. If you're going to quiz me you have to insert a pause."
 
Damn, he was really funny. His delivery was great. He had to be in front of a certain audience though. In front of a mainstream audience, he pretty much bombed (although I was laughing).
 
Man this really really sucks, I'm so glad I got to see him live a few months ago. Although it indeed sucks for us fans, my thoughts go out to his close friends and family.
 
[quote name='sociopharm02']he just got a gig doing comercials for jimmy johns too, the sub place. I saw that commerciallast night it was hilarious[/QUOTE]

MMMM, Jimmy John's.
 
I can't believe he died. This fucking blows. Hedberg was one of my favorite comedians, period. It's so shocking to me because my roommate is an even bigger fan and he has internet access at work and hadn't called and told me yet, so I am very surprised. But, I guess it's true about what the say about famous people always dying in trifectas. We had Johnnie Cochran a few days ago, and now Hedberg and Schiavo today. It may not even be the end of the trifecta today considering Schiavo wasn't exactly a famous person. But anyway, RIP Mitch Hedberg.
 
Well I was catching up on some more news and figured out who will probably complete the death trifecta, The Pope. It seems he's been given his last rites.
 
I read about this earlier today. I've been bummed non-stop. For a while, I was hoping that it was an incredibly elaborate joke, but, I guess I was just in denial. What a tragic thing to happen.

Damn it, why couldn't Larry the Cable Guy have died, or something? Why? WHY?

Goodbye, Mitch, and thanks for the laughs.
 
God, this is so messed up. That's got to be the last type of person you expect to kill themselves. A freaking comedian. That quote Kayden has in his profile was my favorite Mitch Hedberg joke, though he doesn't have it right.

Since my post is still last, I'll just edit it. I am becoming really skeptical about all this. The only confirmation has been a paper from where he hails, Comedy Central, and Howard Stern. It hasn't been picked up by any of the major news sites, and it seems like something Google News would pick up if it was proven. I will be holding out hope until after tomorrow (or the day after tomorrow, since that's the kind of comedian Mitch Hedberg is).
 
I Was Hoping To Work With Him On My Project. This Is A Terrible Thing And God Bless His Family. He's Almost As Funny As Steve Zahn When We Filmed Happy Texas (available On Dvd Now).
