Rodney Dangerfield Jokes

Born Jacob Cohen in 1921, Rodney "No Respect" Dangerfield began writing jokes at the age of 15. At 19 he changed his name to Jack Roy and had two jobs: one as a comic who couldn't make a living and the other as a singing waiter.
After traveling the comedy circuit for ten years, the struggling Jack Roy quit show business in favor of selling aluminum siding.
It wasn't until the age of 40 that Dangerfield made the decision to relaunch his career as a performer and comedy writer. He spent his days in a business office and nights working in New York clubs.
Rodney's famous trademark white shirt and red tie are on permanent display at the Smithsonian

"I don't get no respect."

"Went to the doctor. Asked me if I'd ever had any problems. Told him I broke my leg in two places.

"He told me to stop going to those places."
