Very funny, extremely talented guy.

RIP.

Meathead was not much of an actor, but he directed several successful movies.

Now he’s just another angry old man, spouting gibberish between servings of Maypo.

Meathead’s father did some fine work.

A few years ago I was at a restaurant that had a Morey Amsterdam sandwich on the menu. I didn’t even look at what was on it. Just ordered it.

I knew a guy who was a retired Vaudeville comedian. Even in his late 80’s his timing was impeccable and he reminded me of Morey.

Loved him until he decided he was important enough to tell the rest of us what we should think and do.

Visited his twitter a few times in recent years, and he was a rabid Trump-hating Hussein Head.

“I think you made a mistake and took the wrong Reiner?”

In many ways, he was worse than Meathead.

Wrong Reiner that died. It should be his jackass son, not him.

However, prayers to his family. Rest in Peace...

[Old Yeller]

Crap. Does this mean the meathead has long-life genes?

[miserare]

Yes.

And grandchildren to carry them forward.

Politically he and his son, indistinguishable. Ultimately both are/were entertainment industry nitwits and partisan shills. Good riddance.

There have been mass murders throughout the years, and even after the war with Stalins purge of Jews, which was even worse than the NAZIS.. The fact that the holocaust was his turning point on giving up on God isn't going to jive with his support of the DNC where Planned Parenthood killed 3 times of what Hitler did in just black lives alone. As long as you wear a shirt the pretends you care, Hypocracy at its finest won't jive with the big guy, but thats nothing when it comes to liberal Jews. They hate Israel and support Palestinians.
