Hedberg was one of those comics who not only wrote great jokes, but also made them 10 times funnier with his delivery. That halting cadence and over-emphasizing certain words ("brought to you by your friends at Yo-PLAIT!" lol!) turned a lot of those 3-second laughs into 10-second bust-ups with applause. One of a kind -- and definitely one of the greats.
Well and accurately put. This is a 4br house. This fourth br has a stove and refrigerator. Club sandwich. Donut receipt. Rice. Potato. Pringles. KitKat. Wallpounding...Go Around! Funny joke pen afar. Dream chase...catch up. Truly one-of-a-kind !
I agree. I've said that often about good comedians. They see things that others don't, and more importantly, they are then able to put those observations into words and relate them in a way that allows the other to see.
One of my favorite Mitch Hedberg jokes... “I like vending machines, because snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at the store, oftentimes I will drop it so that is achieves its maximum flavor potential.”
It’s the suspense of the machine will actually work or steal your money with no apology. It’s freeing a captive food item to the freedom of your personal enjoyment. Vending machines are your worst enemy, or your best friend in a two second span.
Did the machine come with a mask and a gun? Where do you live where it's such a regular occurrence you might not get a snack when you pay @@Puddinpouch
The comparisons Ive read are so weird…like he stole from steven Wright…or Mitch was SR on drugs….I thought oh right cuz Steven Wright never did any drugs (insert eye roll). I mean hes great…but he aint Mitch
People often say his comedic genius was ended far too early. For years I assumed he passed at 2am. (I hope he’d appreciate that silly joke) 😁 We love and miss you Mitch! ❤
A brilliant comment! Followed by a brilliant comment! What a coincidence that you both commented on this topic together! I can't wait until the number of comments reaches 40,008! Man, I should have just said, "Yeah!"
I often ponder a thought that would be a perfect Mitch joke. It has to do with the job position called supervisor. Mitch would say something like: "My boss recently asked if I'd consider being promoted to the supervisor position. I thought dang that's too much pressure right off the bat. I asked him if I could just start at Okayvisor. Maybe one day I could become a prettygoodvisor. Hell maybe even achieve greatvisor one day. But super is just too much on day 1."
To rip-off Tom Lehrer (who was [& still is] also hilarious*): Mitch Hedberg, _who has been my particular idol since childbirth..._ 😄 * Perhaps even more fundamentally 'ahead of his time', though rather different style. Another one of the greats, in the same pantheon as Mr Hedberg.

Damn fine comedian. Genuinely funny observations delivered in a genuinely funny style. And no need for obscenities or trashing anyone. That's rare these days. RIP
I came across a comment years ago that said something to the effect of "Mitch Hedberg is the most confidently nervous comedian in all of history". And it stuck with me. That's exactly who Hedburg was. Props random commentor.
All I can say is he probably had no idea how great he was or how loved he was.... Honestly I don't know anyone who did not think this man was a comedic genius. We truly miss you bro....❤
So many great bits. "how can anyone eat at a time like this...people are missing...Busch search party of 3" one of my favorites. " but first I have to go to the two corners of the world so I can pin it up" Genius
There's actually a bunch of of comedians that copied his style and delivery but none of them made it big because they forgot one key element... They werent Mitch
I'm so sad he's gone I love his personality he has such a unique style in his stand up . He was so cute and just seemed like such a great guy to hang out with RIP Mitch
Man, he was so great. Awesome delivery, no cussing or crude subject matter, true comedic genius 😢. I can’t use an emergency brake on a car without thinking of that joke 😂. Also the Pepperidge farm bread..and escalators .
I know all of his jokes by heart and they still make me laugh every single time and I don't think I can say that about any other comedian, his writing, delivery and timing was perfect.
Love Mitch! Favorite one from him. (Paraphrasing, obviously): “The owner of the club told me if you guys don’t laugh that I’ve have to pick up the trash after the show. So please laugh. Or don’t drop anything.”
Oh my God! The manufactured home repo guy comes to your door. Knock Knock, "can you look that way...for half an hour". So, so funny. I'm still laughin.
I used to love Mitch Hedburn. I still do, but I used to too.
Ahh you get it. lol
Hahaha...good one😂
I read that in his voice
Mitch Hedberg jokes are like rice... oh, nevermind.
Best ! But Hedberg.
"Here's a picture of me when I was younger. ALL PICTURES of you are you when you were younger!"
I tell people, "of course it is in the last place you look, because once you find it, you stop looking"

@@felipebaez3512I can hear the wood bass now
His delivery style is so outrageous. Even when the joke is mid the silliness of the premise makes you snicker

It's called a "persona" comedian. Anyone else can deliver that material and it would completely bomb.

He truly was one of the best to ever perform.
Really?

Same for girlfriends.😂😂😂
What an absolute genius Mitch was. He still is, but also was.
He made comedy look so easy. But he got laughs, and I still get crickets.
One of my favourites was, "i tried to walk into 'target" but i missed ! 😂
"that guy eats cake" has a completely different meaning now lol
I remember way back when being so sad about him being gone. Now seeing people still enjoy him after all these years makes me really happy.
Thanks to the magic of UA-cam.....no one is ever "gone".
I had a parrot and it could talk but I didn't say "I'm hungry" so it died. 😅😅😅😅
Hysterical!
I never heard that one. That's a good one

Got to see him live in seattle a few months before he died. Utterly blessed feeling. RIP

Bush!! search party of 4!!
Trying to imagine what the comedy world would be like if Mitch were still with us
My personal favorite comic of all time
I’m fully convinced that if Mitch Hedberg had made it to the Twitter era, he’d be considered the greatest comedian in history.
I doubt he could have beaten George Carlin.
He would have killed it on Twitter. His jokes are perfect for that medium.
Twitter?
His jokes are good. But his delivery makes them what they are. Wouldn’t be as good just written down
@@HallowedMiscreantthis.
Dry humor doesn't appeal to most Americans. It's his delivery and the audience reaction that makes the joke stick.
His arrow joke still makes me cry laugh to this day god i miss this guy!!
Mitch is awesome. I love a comedian that can take everyday situations or things you say, and say them back to you in a way that makes you laugh.
Greatest delivery of any standup comic ever.
Loved this guy....RIP Mitch.
I'm so sad he's gone I love his personality he has such a unique style in his stand up . He was so cute and just seemed like such a great guy to hang out with RIP Mitch
Sorry for the convenience is something i still say to myself when using escalators
Someone asked me if I wanted a frozen banana I said no. But I do want a regular banana later so, yes 🤣
Man, he was so great. Awesome delivery, no cussing or crude subject matter, true comedic genius 😢. I can’t use an emergency brake on a car without thinking of that joke 😂. Also the Pepperidge farm bread..and escalators .
I have tears in my eyes from laughing so hard 😂😂😂. He’s a fucking genius!
RIP sir, you brought joy to a lot of us.
RIP brother. A true original and classic
Never will be forgotten !!!!!
If ever there lived a funnier clean comedian I'd sure love to hear him! Gone much too soon- we love u brother Mitch! 💔🪦
Seriously,.When you see guys like Steve Martin and Martin Short have long careers and they never make you laugh it's baffling~
Lost him too soon. Thanks for putting this together 😅
Was well on his way to becoming one of the comedy GOATS. RIP Mitch.
I still put him in my top 5 to listen to
Some say he made it. Me, for instance.
Truly one of the greats!
Mitch was the "King of One Liners".
Ever heard of Rodney Dangerfield.
RIP Mitch!! I hope you found the pineapple lifesaver in the sky😅!
I hope so too!
I've only recently discovered Mitch and honestly, he may be one of the greatest of all time...

Got to love the ask your dreams were there going and hook up with them later. 😄👍
I stumbled upon this guy , never heard of him before but he is hilarious 😂
finally A mitch compilation
Thank heaven for Mitch. The purest fountain of comedy ever.
This man was the legendary inventor of Dad jokes 😂
Been watching him for years. So sad to lose him.
Another of the tragic losses of talent in the entertainment industry. Mostly clean and he had a unique perspective on the world. RIP Mitch
