RIP Mitch Hedburg

Love this comment <3

For those of you that are wondering, Mitch Hedburg was a relatively famous stand-up comedian whose special went viral.

In said special was this classic:

“I like an escalator because an escalator can never break; it can only become stairs. There would never be an 'escalator temporarily out of order' sign, only 'escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience.’”

RIP indeed.
