Unless you're Amish or a foreigner (or in the band Foreigner) you probably know who Andy Rooney is. Andy Rooney is the crotchety old guy who complains about stuff for two minutes at the end of every episode of 60 minutes. He's like a hundred and fifty years old which, I guess, is why he only has to work for two minutes a week. Anyways, if you like listening to old guys complain about stuff that most people don't have any problem with (ie. computers, cell phones, kids, lawns, or kids on lawns) then you probably enjoy Andy's weekly gripes. For me, I prefer the Andy Rooney Game method of receiving my Andy Rooney content. Don't get me wrong, I like Andy Rooney. I also like complaining. So what's not to like about Andy Rooney's segments? Well, if you think they're about a minute and a half too long then the following clips may interest you. Behold, the Andy Rooney Game...
It's a simple concept. You take your average Andy Rooney segment from this week's 60 Minutes and condense it down to two sentences. Not just any two sentences from the rant either, it needs to be the first and last in order to preserve the flow of the end of the episode. It doesn't always work, hence the "game" part... but it usually works pretty good. Here are my top three favorites:
if someone can come up with a way to condense these down to about 10 seconds, I'd appreciate it.
