Phrasing please.
I think this is the perfect title that he would approve.
dipshit title
Right?
apparently is still alive at the age of 100
Omg my heart sank
Oy, you got me good
It’s a cross-post that made me see that I should not be reading anything on a Sunday morning. 🤣
Fuck you OP
In 1976 I had an opportunity to meet Mel brooks for an interview in Hollywood, it was just after the release of Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein. Exciting times; they still are high up on my favorite movies list. Mel turned out to be an extremely nice guy, witty, intelligent, fun to talk to. He kept on talking about one of his personal favorite movies (the rocky horror picture show), the whole time he tried to steer the conversation to that newly released “fiasco” which I never found interesting. And he pretended his wife wasn’t Anne BANCROFT, and that he was gay, he gave a very convincing and very funny imitation of a gay man. Hilarious, he stayed at it for the entire interview. Mel is such a card! Alas I was sacked from the newspaper soon after and never had a chance to meet this great director again, that’s the way the cookie crumbles in show business.
Dude, you met, in my very personal opinion, a great guy. At least from what I know, he is one of the few famous people that always showed good values, good sense of humor and a love for life. I was born 2 years before you met him, and I’ve watched all of his movies with my kids. They hate the video quality, but loved space balls and the gods must be crazy.
Last time I saw video of him, he was surprisingly spritely for being of his age. He and Dick Van Dyke, both.
Seems like they could be an interesting performance duo, perhaps. Bring back the 2,000yr old man updated for the times, maybe.
Yeah, Dick van Dyke out of the Guns of Navarone, the guy is mint.
Oh fuck you OP. That was mean.
You monster
Breaks rules 1 (All posts must begin with YSK)
and 11 (Posts must actually be true).edit: sorry, I thought it said he passed at 100.It doesn’t technically break rule 11, but it absolutely breaks Rule 5 (baiting)
In what technical way does saying Mel Brooks is dead when he’s alive not break the rule: “Post must actually be true” ???
The post doesn’t say he’s dead
Woah, I’m assuming OP didn’t change the headline and I just misread it, because I’m not sure how to see if something has been edited. So okay my bad, sorry.
I fell for the exact same thing. The original post is, in my opinion, epic. Just goes to show how much our brains are wired to go on a specific tangent. Love it.
It was clearly OPs intent. All good
It says he passed the age of 100. I passed the age of one and I’m now much older. See? Definitely bait because it’s not a lie even though you’re supposed to think he’s dead because you’re supposed to misread it ;) I also thought he died haha
Got my brain on first read, I bet he’d be amused how it looks at a quick glance.
My exact thoughts were “Awww. Wait. Good.”
Must be all that Druidian air he’s been huffing.
Funny it doesn’t smell druish.
