Does anyone else find him hilarious....though it is sad he apparently died of an overdose. Anyways perhaps I am not the only one here who enjoys his comedy.

My opinion: He's a jackass, just like Robin Williams's a jackass.

I have my fireproof suit on. Let the flame wars begin.

I loved Mitch Hedberg, yeah. Found him very, very funny. What I liked about his humor was that it was actually very gentle. There was an innocent quality to his jokes and scenarios. "I find that a duck's opinion of me is largely influenced by whether or not I have bread..." That's cute. I liked his humor. It was childlike.

It's very sad that he's gone, and very sad about his addictions, though.

I loved Mitch Hedberg, too--saw him perform live once in Austin. This is the second time I've seen his name this week after not thinking about him in years, wonder what that's about?

I used to live in Austin! I must have missed out on that one; I would have loved to have attended that. He was great.

Don't think i laughed at a single one of his jokes. I pretended to once or twice because there was this guy who thought he was really funny and i thought he was cool. Not my style of humor. I prefer Louis c.k.

I saw him on TV a few times and liked his act. I agree with whoever said that his humor was not hateful at all. His oddball 'logic' reminded me a bit of Demitri Martin.
