Christopher Titus/Heartwarming

Norman Rockwell is Bleeding

• His relationship with his father. Yes, he may have been crazy and a Jerkass, but Titus obviously has a lot of love for him.

"My father never missed a drink in his life. Or a joint. Or a party. Or a chance to get laid. He also never missed a day of work. Or a house payment. Or a car payment. I never went hungry, though he did a couple times so I wouldn't."

• Titus telling the audience that he hated becoming a guy who constantly complained about his childhood and other problems and believing that is the reason his life sucks now. While he hated the fact his father kept calling him a wussy, he said that if anyone felt like they needed to shoot themselves like his mom did, he would tell them to quit being a wussy. This is after everything that he himself had gone through.

5th Annual End of the World Tour

• Meeting Sgt. Pepper (yes, that's his real name) on a tour to Iraq. Despite being in a wheelchair and being blind in both eyes, Sgt. Pepper told Titus that his show rocked, and that it was an honor to have him there. Titus, who is "pretty good at finding funny in a dark place, couldn't say anything except "You're welcome."

Neverlution

• It's made pretty clear that Titus is able to get through his dysfunctional life nowadays (especially in the wake of his divorce) by focusing on raising his children to the best of his ability.
  • Titus naming off all the things that happened to him that should have driven him to be an antidepressants addict (his mom's suicide after her latest stint in court-ordered psychiatric therapy, his sister's suicide after the guy she was dating broke up with her yet again, his divorce from Erin that took him 5 years to finalize and cost him $2 million in alimony and legal fees, and living with his Jerkass dad who crushed his self-esteem), but he instead takes his messed-up and makes himself an antidepressant for others -- one that you can safely take with alcohol. Also counts as a Crowning Moment of Awesome.
• His discovery at a seminar when the people told him that a man doesn't spend his life savings to keep custody and stay with you your entire life because he hates you. Titus has made comments in past routines that something happened that made him and his dad reconcile but that was the first time he layed it all out.
