Watch. Me. Faggots.

Dom DeLuise, 1933 - 2009

This is from Blazing Saddles, one of the finest movies out there. And this is Dom's finest line (he only has a few). I can't explain it, and if you don't know what I'm talking about (Justin), go rent the movie because your education is severely lacking.

Perhaps the only funnier thing I ever saw from Dom was in the outtakes from Smokey and the Bandit II, a terrible movie. Dom co-stars as "Doc" and there's an elephant involved. At one point, he's sitting on the back of the semi-trailer, and the elephant reaches around and pretty much grabs his crotch. I don't remember much else from that movie, but that scene is a classic.

Dom was a classic guy and unbeknownst to me, had a second career as a chef. Huh.

I hope we stop saying goodbye to funny people for a little while.
