If you know him, then you probably know that he died today at the age of 37. He's a great comedian famous for his one line jokes, each having nothing to do with the next. He's keen observations made him highly regarded as one of the best young comedians around with alot of potential. On a negative note, he was a known drug user which probably contributed to his death.

Have you heard any of his work? Do you like it? If so, whats your favorite lines? If not, what didn't you like about his style?

Really? Man, that's terrible...

He had a comedy special on Comedy Central, and he was one of the only comedians I ever laughed out loud at.

I liked the way he just went from one joke to another, but it didn't seem like he was actually joking, just talking.

Yeah, I thought that he was freaking hilarious. I loved to watch him, even if I had seen that show nine times allready.

I miss Mitch Hedberg! I loved him; Jay London's style reminds me of his.

Is that the guy with the "There's no Smokey the Bear in Great Britian" joke? If so, he will be sorely missed.

My personal favorite of his jokes was when he was talking about Pringles, and how the Pringles people were going to make tennis balls, but then they got a shipment of potatoes instead of rubber so they make chips instead.

It's really a shame that he died.

Wow.. that's harsh. I'm addicted to stand up... my favs right now are Demetri Martin and Dane Cook, but Hedberg was great.

What does this have to do with religion or politics?

Part of religion is death and passing.

don't act like a mod, please.

Legally I don't think so..

Illegally.. well.. you can pretty much get anything illegally.

"I once tripped on an escalator. I fell for three hours." or something along those lines.

"The thing about escalators is they never break. They only temporarily become stairs."
