Freak By Night Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 RIP Dick! I used to enjoy the bandstand many many years ago. To be honest though, I thought he was older than 82. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 RIP Dick! I used to enjoy the bandstand many many years ago. To be honest though, I thought he was older than 82. He still looked like a teenager around 15 years ago. In the words of the great Herb Tarlek: "He never ages". R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP Dick Clark. Seriously? Welcome to the internet. First time I see….sheesh. I’ve talked worse shit about Booche’s age! I’m not ragging on him for getting old(is Age-ist a real thing to accuse someone of on the internet? Christ almighty) I’m accusing him and his TV network for not letting him age gracefully, out of the spotlight. He slurred his way through the last few years of NYE, mangling words that didn’t even have consonants.Hell, I didn’t even coin the phrase ‘Zombie Dick Clark’, I’m just a citizen of the Interwebs.http://www.modernprimate.com/opportunistic-grave-robbing-dick-clark-edition/Also, since both my Grandmothers died when I was fairly young I can’t say for certain if they spoiled my appetite or perhaps I spoiled theirs. My dad is over 70 though and was at the table this Easter – is there a clause in your ‘Age-ist’ allegation that excludes immediate family members? Cause I had seconds that meal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
