Sketchsays...Reminds me of one I posted a little while ago:
http://www.videosift.com/video/Andy-Rooney-Rambles-on-About-Nothing
I'm pretty sure that at some point his rants are going to sound something like, "Did you ever notice how people breathe air? I wonder what people are doing with all of this air that they're breathing. I'm pretty sure that with all of these people taking in so much air, that I'm not getting enough oxygen to my brain. Do they own that air? Is that my air they're inhaling? Pretty soon I'm going to stop using my air, so can I give my air to my heirs? I think they'd like that."
gwiz665says...Andy Rooney notices a lot of things.
Edeotsays...Nrughh! All these young people with their new fangled arms and their hippity hoppity music boxes! Why in my day....
ctrlaltbleachsays...LOL I'm surprised someone didn't say my .45!

Sketchsays...Never underestimate the power of a shameless plug for one of your own videos. Mine wallowed in obscurity until I piggy backed off of this one! Thanks, Castles!
djsunkidsays...Look around you. Just look around you. Have you sorted out what it is that we're looking for? Correct. The answer is books.
K0MMIEsays...How do you even get this kind of job to sit around and watch people and make snarky comments? I want that job.
Fletchsays...^Practice here.
honkeytonk73says...What is that buzzing sound coming from your bag?
Oh.. nothing.
Lolthiensays...Sigh... I've become convinced that Andy Rooney is simply kept on the payroll as an inside joke amongst the journalists at 60 minutes.. sort of like the old uncle at thanksgiving that your no good cousin starts talking to just to get him to say something crazy and make everyone laugh at the old coot.
People carrying things? seriously?
dw1117says...Part two of the report Andy Rooney notices people holding things to their ears and talking. Finds out it is something called a "mobile phone".
rottenseedsays...I heard a rumor that Andy Rooney doesn't even know he's on TV. They just tape a video camera to the top of a dummies head and record his whole day, which involves nonstop rambling.
castlessays...You know, as a kid, whenever my parents watched 60 minutes I always liked the Andy Rooney segment and didn't really care much for the others. I think it's because his kind of observations ring true with 7 and 8 year-olds. As a kid you might think, yeah, that IS true! People ARE carrying things! How 'bout that!
I dunno, maybe I was just a weird old-man-kid.
lucky760says...What are these "book" things everyone's carrying around?
StukaFoxsays..."Have you ever noticed that a lot of people are walking around these days using their 'feet'? Oh, you have? Well, have you noticed they wear clothes? Oh, you have and you think I'm an old crank whose long outlived his usefulness and will be known for nothing after his passing? Well, you little mound of mouse shit, have you ever walked into Buchenwald two weeks before VE day and seen the corpses stacked like firewood and be the first reporter to file a story on the atrocities there? You ever flown in a B-17 over Germany while the Luftwaffe was shooting the thing into flying Swiss cheese? Well, I have. So fuck you.
I'm Andy Rooney."
Xaxsays...Time to take grandpa for a walk in the woods.
budzossays...I make a point of carrying nothing every chance I get. I'm not carrying anything right now, for instance.
pmkierstsays...Apparently Andy Rooney has never had to commute to work. Or use a planner. What a fucking idiot.
The funny thing is, I think we probably do drag around too much shit, but somehow he managed to find the most idiotic things to complain about. God, ever since I heard him bitch about niacin in cereal, I've though they should get rid of him...
Fletchsays...I lot of you must be young'uns. I grew up watching Andy Rooney, and I think it's still the best part of the show. His JOB is to bring up, discuss, wonder about, and opine about things no one really cares or thinks about. Nothing in particular, nothing edgy or controversial. Just a "few minutes" of your time. Just think of him as the cool-down lap of the program, the Seinfeld of News.
I love Andy Rooney, and the show will be less when he is gone.
