Very few could keep up with good ol' norm.
That old lump of coal?? He’s usually too busy thinking about a pork sandwich to care
He didn't own a doghouse also.

Although he was a very deep closeted gay man.

I think one time I heard he's an atheist. Can anyone confirm that?

I missed this the first time around. Everything at the 12:00 mark is incredible, hardest I've laughed all week.

Ricky Gervais announces that he is retiring from comedy, effective 20 years ago.

He’s a comic actor and writer rather than a comedian.

Personally I think he’s a bit of a one trick pony. The Office was great because he channeled every shitty, self serving asshole you’ve ever worked for. The kind of manager that smiles while they fuck you over.

But overall he’s basically Frank Spenser from Some Mothers do have Them. A grindingly awful British comedy from the 1980s. He’s the Pixies of comedy. Fantastic and cutting edge within a mainstream framework 25+ years ago but completely irrelevant now.
