The Late Great Rodney Dangerfield
One of the best comedians of all time. His mannerisms during his stand up routine were pure genius. The way he pulled his tie. The way he squirmed his neck with that tight collar. The way he talked to and looked at the audience with those bug eyes and self deprecating manner. He got laughs at himself instead of at the expense of others.http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...-2004Oct6.html
Some of my favorite Rodneyisms:
"I was ugly, very ugly. When I was born the doctor slapped my mother."
"Last week my house was on fire. My wife told the kids,'Be quiet,you'll wake up daddy."
"When I was a kid my parents moved a lot,but I always found them."
"A girl phoned me the other night and said,'Come on over,there's nobody home.' I went over. Nobody was home."
"I found out there was only one way to look thin. Hang out with fat people."
'I'm at the age where food has taken the place of sex in my life. In fact, I've just had a mirror put over my kitchen table."
"I went to my doctor the other day, and he told me I was crazy. I said,'Oh yeah, well I want another opinion.' He says, 'Okay, you're ugly too'."
"My fan club broke up. The guy died."
I'm going to miss you Rodney.
