Rodney 'Love Is A' Dangerfield
November 22, 1921 - Rocktober 5, 2004
Never had a man who looked so deranged and mad googly-eyed entertain millions upon zillions of people the way that you did Rodney (Emo Phillips doesn't count). You only appeared in less than 20 films, but every time yer ugly head popped up on screen, you had us in stitches and Ace bandages. Sure,
Caddyshack and
Easy Money are amongst yer finest of the fine, but it was yer work as Thornton Melon in
Back To School that I'll always remember the mostest. Can you name another movie where
Oingo Boingo play a party,
Kurt Vonnegut plays himself, Sam Kinison does his Sam Kinison thing x 83, and
William Zabka is even more of a prick than he was in
The Karate Kid? And here's my personal favorite thing-a-ma-bob that you ever uddered from yer loud mouth: [Tall and Fat clothing store commercial]
Are you fat? When you go jogging, do you leave potholes? When you make love, do you have to give directions? At the zoo, do the elephants throw you peanuts? Do you look at a menu and say 'OK!'?
And yes, we'll forgive you for
Meet Wally Sparks,
Little Nicky, and co-starring in
Ladybugs with Jackée.
And yes,
he really did have a board game!
Now if we can only find a cure for this dying shit that keeps a happenin'!! This is supposed to be a site about life and thighs, not death and taxes!!
