I think of him every time I trim my eyebrows
I miss Andy Rooney I often wonder what take he would have on our current world of affairs.
George Carlin too both would have been great insights
Carlin was one of the funniest Americans of the last century. Rooney was a crotchety old windbag with mind-numbingly boring books and commentaries. But otherwise, ok sure.
@@GrantLeeEdwards the comedy was his grumpy demeanor and saying what people actually thought but with a provoking twist.
Nonetheless, knowing what the subject was, you still clicked on the video🤷🏼♀️
@@patriciatoomingtheplantpar2558 Haha that was just an ironic grumpy homage. I’m a big fan of the Roons.
I dont think his brand of humor would be appreciated today. Sad, I too loved to see him each week.
My mom rip loved him
Dayman!...fighter of the nightman, champion of the sun, he's a master of karate and friendship for everyone. 🙆
when I was young, I wondered why I never saw an andy rooney statue
Senate just today passed making daylight savings permanent! If the House approves and Biden signs, say goodbye to changing your clocks (most all automatic now anyway!) and adjusting your own body-clock too!
* Fingers Crossed *
I hope so! I still have to change the time on my microwave, stove, coffee pot and my OCD has to be sure they are all telling the same time! 🥴😂
Doesn't the senate approve?
I'm literally a "morning person" but I thrive at night. Idk what that makes me. Annoying, probably xD
Me too, we have different internal clocks
I love the longer light in the evening!!!
I hate it, personally. Night is the best time of the day.
@@AzureKnight2 Haha!!!
Daylight Savings Time does not help the economy. If we happen to be invaded one of two days out of the year, we might confuse the enemy, for awhile.
I'd forgotten how funny and clever Andy Rooney was.
*PLEASE* *MORE* *ANDY* *ROONEY* (upload your archives, everyone misses him)
And That’s the way it was UA-cam channel has a complete playlist of Andy Rooney segments from 1984-1994
I loved Andy Rooney, he always has his colorful commentary.Miss him
This is absolutely true! After more than 40 years this is even more true
Wow I miss those simpler times
WONDERFUL! God I forgot how much I missed Andy Rooney! He was the creamy dessert after the full dinner meal of 60 Minutes. It just ain't the same no more .....
He disliked everything 😂
The Dolly Parton comment certainly hasn't aged well.
I'm somewhere in the middle, where the truth usually lies.
If only politicians would see this and just split the difference between Standard and DST, once and for all! Forget one or the other and having miserable complaints from advocates of the losing side. The rest of US just want to cease with the nonsense biannual superstitions ritual, and comprising in the middle is almost certainly the only viable option for permanence.
1:16 Now it's Ubers and/or Lyfts 😂😂
Andy Rooney lives on in immortality .
Always loved this guy. Now, more than ever .
Mr. Rooney was a great man. Miss his classy talks. So gifted ❤
This is absolutely glorious! 🙌
Do ya ever notice how much Andy Rooney is such a pain to listen and yet he was one the best journalists in television history?
Much like Billy Eichner or Lewis Black for comedians. Or Bobcat Goldwaith.
WTF Andy? What did Dolly Parton do to deserve that?
Lol 😂
This is like clean George Carlin.
Andy Rooney was puzzled or irritated by half of everything! But he really seemed to love the rest...
Andy Roonie is a perfect example thar that don't make em like the used to. His eyebrows had more wisdom and integrity than all the reporters and writers at a new's network today.
Him and Paul Harvey!
Simpler times. With more sources for news, the conglomerates that own them forced the exaggerated narratives we see today to get people to watch. 60 minutes is one of the few mainstream news organizations I still have respect for, despite all that. I love the 60 minute rewinds, whoever thought to put them up on youtube- thank you for letting some great reporters live on for the younger generations
@@nickw7619You're very welcome. Yeah...I'm from generation x so thankfully I still remember the good ole days lol I try to teach my 10 year old daughter about my time and the generations before hers. Since, I know it's to easy these days to get lost in present day happenings. I think we have a duty as parents, and a people to honor those trailblazers in the media and elsewhere that made this a great world and nation to be part of. Especially since it seems these days media and political figures want us to forget are past. I refuse to let that happen in my household. It must be upheld, cherished, and learnt from most importantly.
@@shonmoody1706 wait, this is like hitting the lottery.... how did the idea to do it come about? Who ultimately owns the rights to the channel? Who has the power to upload video?
Leave the clocks alone! I don’t care which setting we choose, just choose one and let us be done with this nonsense-it’s the 21st century, for crying out loud!!!
Andy Rooney went hard af
They need to keep it on spring forward and be done with it. I do a lot better with extra hour of light than I do when clocks go back. Fits my circadian rhythm
Hit the nail on the head with those night people!
It’s estimated that changing the clocks twice a year costs the American GDP 3-5 billion dollars per year in lost productivity, accidents, and mistakes made because people are tired.
Enough already!
As a night person I can attest to this.
Isn’t this backwards? Daylight savings time happens in the Spring. If he liked the daytime, he would actually LIKE DST. 🤷♀️
You do have a point.
Nah, he wanted to get up in the early morning daylight hours. Sunrise at 5:30 was his marmalade!
What’s wrong with Dolly Parton?
Amen, Andy!
Same here, Mr. Rooney. I hate it.
Night people sound cooler
I'm too young to remember Andy, but as a kid who after graduating college worked 8-4 in my 'college job' at an office and then changed in a bathroom and worked 5-11 at a high end restaurant on the atlantic coast overlooking the water for the extra money, not everyone trudging to work in the morning was out drinking all night. I was just tired of being a broke college kid, and crushing student loans weren't enough to cover right out of school until I started climbing the ladder. I'm 32 now and just paid off the loans from my school.... now I just have to worry about the govt loans
Miss you Andy
And that's why I like night people.

Pro: Longer Evenings
Setting the clocks forward one hour in spring does not create more daylight, but it does change the time (on the clock) the Sun rises and sets. So, when we spring forward an hour in spring, we add one hour of natural daylight to our afternoon schedule.
Proponents of DST argue that longer evenings motivate people to get out of the house. The extra hour of daylight can be used for outdoor recreation like golf, soccer, baseball, running, etc. That way, DST may counteract the sedentary lifestyle of modern living.
The tourism industry profits from brighter evenings. Longer evenings give people more time to go shopping, to restaurants, or to other events, boosting the local economy.
Con: Doesn't Save Energy
A century ago, when DST was introduced, more daylight was a good thing because it meant less use of artificial light and more energy savings. Modern society, with its computers, TV-screens, and air conditioning units, uses more energy, no matter if the Sun is up or not. Today, the amount of energy saved from DST is negligible.
When Indiana decided to introduce DST in 2006, a study found that the measure actually increased energy use in the state.
Pro: Less Artificial Light
One of the aims of DST is to make sure that people's active hours coincide with daylight hours so that less artificial light is needed. This makes less sense close to the equator, where the amount of daylight does not vary much in a year, or near the poles, where the difference between winter and summer daylight hours is very large.
However, at latitudes between these extremes, adjusting daily routines to the shifting day length during summer may indeed help to save energy. A German analysis of 44 studies on energy use and DST found a positive relationship between latitude and energy savings.
Con: Can Make People Sick
Changing the time, even if it is only by one hour, disrupts our body clocks or circadian rhythm. For most people, the resulting tiredness is simply an inconvenience. For some, however, the time change can have more serious consequences to their health.
Studies link the lack of sleep at the start of DST to car accidents, workplace injuries, suicide, and miscarriages.
The early evening darkness after the end of the DST period is linked to depression.
The risk of suffering a heart attack is also increased when DST begins. However, the extra hour of sleep we get at the end of DST has, in turn, been linked to fewer heart attacks.
How DST affects your health
Pro: Lighter = Safer
Safety is one of the more solid arguments for keeping the lighter evenings of DST.
Studies have found that DST contributes to improved road safety by reducing pedestrian fatalities by 13% during dawn and dusk hours.
Another study found a 7% decrease in robberies following the spring shift to DST.
Con: Costs Money
It is hard to determine the economic cost of the collective tiredness caused by DST, but studies have found a decrease in productivity after the spring transition.
The City of New York invested 1.5 million US dollars in a dusk and darkness safety campaign for the DST change for the fall of 2016.
There is an extra cost in building DST support into computer systems and keeping them maintained, as well as manually changing clocks.
🤣 That's our Andy ..
I guess I’m “Night People”.😊
3/15/22 Yay! 💙💙 Permanent Daylight Saving Time is getting closer to being implemented.
Good
I'm a night owl and I totally agree with night owl Andy Rooney.
Gosh...I've forgotten how crazy ol Andy was...cracks me up!
F yeah! I'm a night person G'DAM it!
Congress wants to pass an end to daylight savings
APRIL 26TH!?!
Holy crap. It's bad enough I have to wait for the Ides Of March to have longer evenings after work. To have to wait until friggin' May to get back on DLS would be a nightmare.
Who hurt you, Andy Rooney
Why do I feel so personally attacked by Andy Rooney from 2 years before I was born now that I'm 40? Could it be because I idolized the man? I'm a night person and he nailed my morning routine.
😂😂😂 Rooney was a treasure.
Andy Rooney did another similar one comparing morning people to night people. Would love to see it if someone digs it up and uploads it.
Andy calling us night people out. His argument was lacking at the end there. I would've made him proud being up before 6 though. I better grab an orange juice instead of a coffee.😬
Never seen a comment section open on their channel before
I would urge assembly people to cease the Daylight Saving Time nonsense. Do us all a favor!
Crass or not; he is more correct than we'd like to admit.
I personally agree with you Andy.I like standard time better.
"The sun comes up at 5:30" - I'm from Eastern KY, the end of the timezone, it NEVER comes up before 7 haha.
I don't like Irish Spring soap. Who wants a bunch of colors running off them when you're taking a shower
This is really funny. I love how he is making of the whole irrelevant argument at the same time he's making his argument.
Excellent
Imagine saying that today
He was good!
Thank you, Andy!
Gold
I hate mornings. And I'm not really sure that I liked what he said about people like me
Wow night people are awesome!
Ronney was so cool. Lol
And the Senate just voted to make Daylight Saving Time permanent. (Florida already had.) Erosion of Standards. Right, Andy?
Andy was a great guy, read his book someday, 'Andy Rooney, my War,' really good read...
Priceless!😂
I’m so proud at how far comedy has gone.
Yeah, straight into the gutter.
Definitely a night person. I love Dolly Parton! 😅
As I think you would agree, some people liked Dolly Parton for the wrong reason.
Is this the guy in the System Of A Down video ?
What a legend
I miss Andy Rooney...
Outstanding!
It needs to go away. Just leave it on so we get more evening sun.
Email your House representative and ask them to pass the Sunshine Protection Act. It's already been passed in the Senate as of today.
A national treasure
The different in sunlight is equally spread in the morning as afternoon. No need to timeshift the entire day. Nature keeps it balanced for us!
Whats wrong with Al Pacino and Robert De Niro?
I thought this was serious for a moment.
Yeah it is.
Man. No Political correctness whatsoever. So tasty
Dolly Parton 🤣😂
I'm hollering! 😄 (Miss him...)
Andy was the man...
GOOD MORNING VIETNAM
03/15/22. Permanent daylight savings time passed by Senate. Now to House. Yahoo!!!
That was a parliamentarian gimmick and PR stunt and went nowhere, other than to gullible news outlets and to writers, who had nothing else to write about but still had rent due.
God, I miss Andy Rooney.
That is so funny. Thanks.
He was awesome
Never heard of him. But this was quite funny
Teach a man how to post edit. Make sure to spike his drink. Leave the room with a cryptic mention about conspiracy of people ruled by clocks and time savings. Check edit banks next day for gold. Post thirty years later…UA-cam investment finally pays off.
Too funny. I miss him.
Lol! 😂👍
Damn
Nightmen - ohhahhhhuhhhh
