Sadly, Rodney Dangerfield passed away today at the age of 82. That SOB could always make me laugh.

Sad news, he was one of my all time favorites. I was going to post a joke in here but I'll wait 'till morning.
He sure was one funny man. RIP Rodney, may you "get some respect".

I never thought he was funny, but I'm sorry he's dead.

The "Triple Lindy" dive he did in "Back To School" cracks me up every time.
RIP Rodney

RIP. A great comedian. I still crack up from the same lines I've heard a million times. Caddyshack was his finest performance, I think, although there were many others.
Couldn't Agree More about Caddyshack. He has always been one of my favorite comedians (Much to the Dismay of My Mother)
