You scared us Jim! We thought you passed! Glad you're still here with us! Sending you appreciation for you while you're still here!

This is hilarious. I'm glad that Jim Gaffigan is still with us. Because Humanity sure would be a more boring place without that awesome comedian and humorist around to cheer us up.

Remembering Jim Gaffigan,
by Jim Gaffigan

You know, this is unique, coming from him, because he is Jim Gaffigan, and he is alive, too.
If I had to remember him, in some
sort of way, I’d say that he really had a great way of looking at the brighter side of life, when it came to himself as a dad, and a stand-up comedian, and an actor.

For now, he still does pretty much of all of that- acting, I’m not so sure, but either way, he is still entertaining us, with his clever jokes, segments, and opinions.

Happy New Year, to the “late” James “Jim” Gaffigan.

I'll miss your off-beat good looks, Jim. RIP 😊

Was anyone else hypnotized by the swirling multi-colored clouds background between the :57 point and the 1:26 point of this video? So mesmerizing!

Happy New Year and thanks for the laughs!

You scared me before I was able to finish the whole sentence, yes I'm a little slow. We found our new Andy Rooney.

Internal voice talking: " Is he making jokes about his own death? What's up with that? He looked so healthy." Happy New Year Jim to you and yours. You are one of my favorite comedians because you don't use profanity to be funny. Your stories are hilarious! The alter ego voice jokes you do are my favorite where you heckle yourself. The only good thing about going to your pretend funeral is that you can thank everybody who showed up and make note of those missing. Long live Jim Gaffigan! ♥🙏♥

[addiemclain]

A celebration of life! Please, I don't want you to go just yet, in selfish terms, I want to laugh more. Love you Jim Gaffigan.

[radicalross]

Fare thee well, Mr. Gaffigan! By that I mean I hope you continue to fare well. You won't be missed, mainly because you're not gone.

[idongesitusen]

I nearly had a heart attack! That’s one way to wake up- your favorite comedian posts his own obituary video, appreciate him! Loud & clear Jim, Loud & clear. ❤

You both nailed it, Jane and Jim! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
