6. I concur.
Lynde always had a nasal, sarcastic delivery that really hit the punchline home.

I think the lines are funny as written, but the delivery really made them homers.

Kids!
I don't know what's wrong with these kids today!
Kids!
Who can understand anything they say?
Kids!
They a disobedient, disrespectful oafs!
Noisy, crazy, dirty, lazy, loafers!
While we're on the subject:
Kids!
You can talk and talk till your face is blue!
Kids!
But they still just do what they want to do!
Why can't they be like we were,
Perfect in every way?
What's the matter with kids today?
Kids!
I've tried to raise him the best I could
Kids! Kids!
Laughing, singing, dancing, grinning, morons!
And while we're on the subject!
Kids! They are just impossible to control!
Kids! With their awful clothes and their rock an' roll!
Why can't they dance like we did
What's wrong with Sammy Caine?
What's the matter with kids today!

13. Paul was in "Bye Bye Birdie" -- one of my favorite movies
Edited on Sat Jun-03-06 03:36 PM by 5thGenDemocrat
Of course, it's one of my favorites because of how Ann-Margret bounces around in it but, nevertheless, Paul was a great entertainer.
