Great 70s-era put downs that no longer resonate (second in a series)

“Man, you’re like an out of work school teacher:  No. Class.”

  1. Jeff Goldstein says:

    Well done, Scott!

  2. Johnny Catbird says:

    Uh, that’s not the right quote, Jeff.

    You’re just like school in summer. No. Class.

  3. Jeff Goldstein says:

    I believe the gang used a number of different set-ups, all with the same punchline.

  4. Johnny Catbird says:

    My apologies; I stand corrected.  I guess that’s the only one that really stuck with me—it just seemed to flow.

  5. Jeff Goldstein says:

    No apologies necessary.  I only remembered the one I cited, but I like yours better.

  6. Ken J says:

    I was going to write what Johnny Catbird wrote, but I didn’t want to seem pedantic. Way to go pedantic Johnny, now Jeff looks silly. Are you happy now?

  7. Gordon says:

    Curse you Goldstein,

    I was planning a post on 70’s jokes that don’t work anymore. e.g. “Paul McCartney was in a band before Wings?”

    Now it looks like cheap plagarism instead of cheap humor. Thanks.

    I seem to remember “school during a teacher’s strike,” then Rudy getting all pissed off and shanking Dumb Donald with a fork he was using as a drumstick, then Bill Cosby telling me I had learned something.

    Jeff, I hate to be the on to tell you you’re behind the times, but Fat Albert is as relevant as it ever was.  Why? Because the live action version is coming soon to a theater near you.
