As tight wired as that dude was, can't complain about 67.
I was never a big fan but he was one of the last politically incorrect as a motherfucker comics out there.
Like his joke about MLK "so I told Coretta 'at least he didn't get shot robbing a liquor store'" lol.

I’ll never for get his roast of George Tecie or however you spell it, shit was hilarious
Right after 9/11 when people were still in shock and wondering if it was ok to even laugh, about anything.
He told this filthy joke and it broke the ice and opened a flood of much needed relief. I laughed my ass off last night when I saw it.

His accent drove me nuts… but he was funny as hell at times.
Some of his movie cameos were great.
“Your Mercedes dealer is on line 7…”

I'll take his voice over Chris Rock's anyday! Also, what's not to love about seeing Gilbert telling the most offensive jokes and all you can think of is the parrot from Aladdin saying the jokes instead?

That clip pops up in my YouTube feed every now and then. I've heard it, but I don't buy it. Obviously his stage voice is way more exaggerated, but I'm not buying that clip is really Gilbert. I personally hope it's not really him because that would mean he took his real voice to the grave. Pretty cool in a morbid sorta way, but hey Gilbert would laugh at it!
He was on Rogan in '21 not long before he died and was just a normal guy. He talked about how he hated his time on SNL.
I can remember a time when I thought 67 would have been ancient. Now that I'm 61, I gotta say, that's not old at all.
