Really a better comedian than people give him credit for. His character in the original buffy the vampire slayer movie was pretty funny, when his arm gets ripped off and he says something like “he ruined my jacket… kill him a lot”. RIP guy.

I inadvertently tortured my family with wanting to watch Pee Wee’s Big Adventure over and over as a kid.

Thanks for the creative inspiration and lots of laughs.

Damn. Loved him growing up. Gen-X lost an icon. RIP Pee-wee.

He wasn’t popular where I live (Argentina) but this thread reminded me of his cameo on 30 Rock, which was hillarious.

Talk about someone else who also got similar treatment as Sinead.

And there are a hundred more moments from that one movie alone that are just as funny. He brought me a lot of joy in this world. Sinead and Paul in a week is pretty brutal for this Gen X’er.

He didn’t make monkeys. He just trained them.

Pee-Wee was entertainer for children so if a large percentage of adults didn’t find him annoying he wasn’t doing his job properly.

Loved those Pee-Wee films, and even the last one was funny and fresh.

This is the best article I’ve read in a long time!
