Classic Andy Rooney '42 moments

[@georgfriedrichhandel4390]

My favorite Andy Rooney piece remains when he went to a gas station and bought one gallon of gas. The price was .999 per gallon. Andy hands the attendant a dollar and then asks for his change. The attendant tells him, "there is no change because it's a dollar". And Andy responds, "No it's not. It's .999". The attendant then responds, "We round it up to a dollar". And Andy asks, "Then why don't you round up to price you advertise?" And that's what we all love about Andy Rooney. He dared to give voice to all those things that bother all of us but that we never complain about. He was our voice!

[@jettlii5872]

I miss Andy. I used to grow up as a kid listening to him and he was always my favorite part of 60 mins

[@Hot80s]

I love when he said "if you see me dining in manhattan in a nice restaurant please leave me alone"

[@williampeters3803]

Andys opinion was always worth my time to listening to.

[@Ditka-89]

God damn if only we still had a voice like him today. Like some crotchety old philosopher pointing out life’s absurdity

[@koytoy2656]

I used to turn on 60 minutes when it was almost over, just to watch Andy at the end of the show.

[@ricardofrancis5056]

I miss Andy Rooney. He was a classic commentator. There are so many who watched 60 minutes just to hear, Andy Rooney. I respect and appreciate talent. The Venting Vigilante.

[@unknownunknowns]

Andy Rooney has the best last segment of that show that we miss.

R.I.P Andy Rooney and R.I.P Morley Safer

[@ryoamora8655]

Without the majestic voice of Morley Safer, and the closing wit, "Did ya ever wonder how.....?", of Andy Rooney... the iconic 60 Minutes, just isn't the same.

[@bradmedicus]

This piece was awesome. A lot of people see Andy Rooney as a crotchety old man but, his rants bring a certain clarity to me. And something most people lack today, SENSE!

[@smittycal]

RIP MR Rooney..thanks for all the years of just telling it like it is!!

[@manuelmejia4481]

So many memories..... thanks for taking me back....

[@katharine46]

Thank you...we will all miss this most wonderful of orators... Bless his heart!

[@1911beauty]

It is so scary to see how far we have come from this world of logic that Andy Rooney must have taken with him when he left. I miss the days when the world made so much sense. Now we have more information, technology, and more ways to be exceptable but we dont have simple logical common sense. Im sure thats just me getting old 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@ufothing]

There will never be another Rooney or Paul Harvey,,,they were the best logic and wit informative and entertaining with STYLE period.

[@Potomacstud]

I watched him gripe for so many years to a point that I really missed him , he is such a part of my life :(

[@eltzrothm1]

I miss his silly rants. You never get that anymore.

[@powerslave6944]

I missed and love his rantings but logical arguments

[@michaelmonkey6541]

Love you Mr. Rooney....

[@michellepost5232]

I watched 60 Minutes in the early 1970s when I was a child, but I understood the segments for the most part. In any case, Andy Rooney was my fave of the show, and I about cried when he retired from it.

[@SingPandaProductions]

I loved him as a kid! Haha idk if I understood him but I watched him anytime my patents watched 60 mins

[@someyooper6172]

This could have been 60 minutes long, I’d watch it all!

[@1freedlander]

Andy Rooney was (and still is) one of my favorite people! Rudolph

[@wingmasterable]

R. I.P Andy Rooney !! the only writer who can make sense out anything!!

[@kimbradley9595]

Simply the best

[@Urindunk]

Lovely old grumpy man. I agree with him on a lot of things. Rest in peace.

[@VWGG1]

A very forward thinking man

[@tonystark3462]

I GREW UP ON THIS GUY!!!! AND I AM HIM IN CORPORATE AMERICA!! I LOVE THIS GUY!!!

[@BerlinBo]

It would be wonderful news, to learn that all of the typewriters found good homes. We need good writers, we need to support them, and i hope we always shall.

[@paulmc3457]

Common sense and a little wit, we could all use more of that, Andy never failed to pull a little grin out of all of us. Rest in peace, nobody could replace you. 😳😉

[@chriskellison3468]

He was one of the only true voice on network tv that could be believed. R.i.p. mr Rooney and thank you for making me a bit more aware of our world and our hero’s.

[@Therealgordongekko]

The Best!

[@johnnyraven4217]

Absolutely loved Andy Rooney. Sometimes the best part of the show. Andy Rooney was to 60 Minutes as Norm MacDonald was to SNL.

[@MLFreese]

Dude's awesome.

[@ajb635]

I can just imagine whats hes talking with God about right now RIP Andy thank you for your wonderful gift

[@thingsidonttellpeople3212]

my hero.....

[@StevenBur]

So good. So funny!!!

[@wafiakul]

RIP great man ever live :(

[@ringbolt9]

loved his spots on the show he must have had tons of money but was always down to earth

[@jeremymenning56]

Rooney was ahead of time riding that scooter.

[@RealTime88]

@unit399 I enjoyed seeing this cilp of Mr. Rooney. I love his essays and I've read 3 of his books and I love seeing his piece every week on 60 Minutes. Very insightful!!!

[@gangwaygamer8831]

He looks like the old guy from "Up" in some of these scenes.

[@Hot80s]

Hey 60 Minutes, can you bring back Andy Rooney rewinds at the end of your show?

[@Videeoboy]

RIP Andy Rooney

[@wafiakul]

RIP GREATEST MAN WHO EVER LIVED

[@Squeaky_Pig]

The greatest man who ever lived? Ooookay.

[@RealTime88]

He taught me how to be a good writer.

[@israelyacknielolivaresguev2720]

a beautiful man

[@Koopgeminikiller]

how does this only have 200 views?

[@MelBOTCRodgers]

You know he is a lost art I want to Andy Rooney the shit out of everything these days July 29th 2022 welcome to the upside down! Every pop culture reference every important event eludes the current generation which cannot read cursive or write cursive. People can't figure out how to get their kids out of the house and off the video games you make the video games motion sensitive they only work if the kids up moving around kids got to be moving more than three and a half miles an hour consistently for the game to work we're just unplug them! He brings back the common sense of the reality that alludes so many of us these days not me! I'm alert awake and aware unfortunately. Anyway I digress LOL I love me some Andy Rooney I pass him on in whenever I get a chance.

[@BR3IF]

RIP

[@RealTime88]

@PenAirPilot I started listening to him a few years ago. I started reading his books a year ago and I think he's a genius. A great writer and has wisdom I hope I have when I am have his age. I agree more people need to listen and stop making fun of Andy.

[@CzarSmitty1963]

Wish 60 minutes would all people to submit 2-3 minute "rant" videos to play at end of each 60 minutes - call it "Andy's Corner" - subject to editing, of course :-)

[@alvaroq2024]

Religion and politics off the table.

[@rebeccaduncan5366]

Andy and others who had workings with 60 mins had a good job and some others now and seeing it now,, harry and others had good now is now out now ,

[@PenAirPilot]

@Koopgeminikiller It seems I've arrived to this page one month from you......only to be ordained as the seventy-ninth one to view. I agree. Some of the wisdom that this man has shared always struck me as pure magic. The arrogant self indulgent idiots who can't respect the "ramblings" of this man really need a reality check....because thats what Andy does. He keeps this nonsense world of "reality" in check. True genius for sure. More people need to listen...

[@crocodilewerewolf]

It's weird. I randomly clicked on this video, not knowing that in fact tonight was his last broadcast.

[@TelephoneToughGuy]

Love the Ali G interview of him

[@fergusof]

Morley says "... until 1941 and the beginning of World War II." Actually, WWII is generally considered to have started in 1939 with the attack on Poland by Germany and Great Britain and the Commonwealth declaring war on Germany 2 days later. America didn't get involved until the incident at Pearl Harbor in December, 1941. Otherwise, great piece on Andy Rooney.

[@nultari1]

But he wouldn't have been drafted until at least 1941

[@georgfriedrichhandel4390]

Granted it's not for me to speak for Morley Safer but I think he meant to say that it was the beginning of our involvement in WWII.

[@zondramoore4121]

Nultarilk

[@LordPsychocutioner]

I still remember that quote of his, " I talk to god too and god told me the other night to tell me that you're a frickin fruit nut" Damnit where do I find a clip of him saying that,

[@kimbradley9595]

He was the Best what the hell is wrong with the world 😢

[@Therealgordongekko]

God what would Andy say about today. He would be the most entertaining guy with Bill Maher

[@SuperMrgentleman]

Don't they put the cotton in to absorb moisture and also stop the pills from bouncing up and down so much they break in shipment?

Good old days when the media was honest balanced and not so radical left like it is today

Damn! This is when CBS reported the F’n news, back when the didn’t spew BS for the power brokers.😉

No, there is not.

0:50 dam he's short! I thought of him as 6'2.

[@andreewert1142]

I went to visit Harry Reasoner in Hospital during his last days ..My NY GF at the time dragged me there..but hey I was not in their loop..lol

[@rr7firefly]

If only Andy was still around. He would call out the pompous hypocrisies and inflated ego of Washington D.C.'s most notorious nut.

[@vtwinbreed]

Rest in Peace you fuck! I miss ya man!

All love and respect from the Toronto Trump Tower Gang...we are sad this sunny morning..All is silent today...Gemma and all of us.

Rooney never saw one second of real combat. Like a lot of reporters, took pride in reporting about combat that he never saw!

[@Bayou_409]

Define combat - being on Utah beach D+4 is about as real as it gets. German artillery was still hitting the beach then. He wasn't an infantry soldier, he wrote for Stars and Stripes - the men that told you about the event so you could later mischaracterize it and be pompous about it.

[@alvaroq2024]

@@Bayou_409Exactly!

[@Chrissybaby1979]

Gonna miss that cantankerous old man

[@lordtalon69]

RIP good sir... However to those of you saying i bet he is saying blah blah blah to god right now. You do realize he was an atheist right? Search for the short interview he did its on youtube.

This sounds more like a smear piece.

[@dip.2271]

He is quite racialist.

[@kombibus]

Very partisan, hated republicans, loved FDR and every Democrat that ever lived. Too bad that he did not finish college to see how wrong he was. Gonna miss the old bastard.
