Yeah, Norton definitely has some issues, that's all I'm gonna say 'bout that.
He's also more the 'desperate for acceptance' type of comic, as a opposed to a Bill Hicks, George Carlin, or Mitch Hedberg type. His biggest fear is being on the 'outside', being riduculed, or even worse having people think he's not funny!
Norton's not stupid though, he knows that the scales, for now, are still tipped in the skeptic's favor (especially with o & a's audience), and he's simply pandering, desperate for acceptance as usual.
Jesse prolly coulda handled that better, but that's actually one thing that makes me like his style, that he isn't 'managed' like most public figures or at least not yet.
