Don Rickles was famous for his "Mr. Warmth" persona, where he would brutally, yet lovingly, roast celebrities regarding their marriages, ages, and personal lives.
Here are a few notable examples of Rickles' "May-December" (large age gap) or marriage-related jokes from his roasts:
To Frank Sinatra & Mia Farrow: While referencing Frank Sinatra's marriage to the much younger Mia Farrow, Rickles often joked about the age difference, implying Frank needed to keep up.
To Johnny Carson: When Johnny Carson was married to his much younger third wife, Joanna Holland, Rickles frequently teased him, saying, "Johnny, she doesn't want your money... she wants your life!".
Roasting Barbra Streisand: In a 1960s roast, Rickles joked about her rapid rise to fame and public perception, often telling her, "You're a dummy... and now everyone's schmeckling [messing with] her," in his signature absurd, non-PC style.
The "Pretty Girl" Routine: Rickles would often brag about being with a very young, beautiful woman in the front row, only to immediately yell, "Frank [Sinatra], not now! Can't you see I'm with somebody!" to turn the joke back on his own, often older, reputation.Rickles often joked that his own wife, Barbara, was younger and trying to keep up with him, playing on the theme that he was the "old, tired" one.
bj boi, you are one pathetic putz.
@#48 ... Did I read Corky is a moderator? ...
I dunno.
But, I do have to ask, why does your current alias seem to admit that it does not know what it reads?
That might explain a lot ... ;)
