    he cultivates a stage attitude of unabashed assholishness, but he seems like he's naturally a very nice and genuine guy.

      I saw Doug with two other great comedians at OKC on Sep 28 2016 (a little over a week ago) and one of the comedians was doing a Bill Burr impersonation and it was hilarious because Doug was on stage laughing his ass off as well.

      Nolan Jenkins Where there any hecklers? There was a hot chick in our venue and she was interrupting Doug and the other comics during the show. Then when Doug was trying to do is closure this dumb twat stood up (only person standing up, and she had front row dead center) and Doug told her several times to sit the fuck down. Then after the third time he told security to escort her out and that he wouldn't continue until she was outside the building. AMAZING!!! SHE LEFT CRYING and even put up a fight by the door!!! LOL!!!

Also getting morphine for pain is not the same as assisted suicide no matter what Doug says. If they were helping them die that way they would be put in prison. Why shouldn't people have the right to a medically assisted suicide?
