best gave guy insult johnny milton title
An insult is mean or unkind. Milton Berle called me the Sultan of Insult, and I was called the King of Insult. But the guy that gave me the best title - and I use it to this day - was Johnny Carson. He called me Mr. Warmth.
guy rip school
Even when I was in high school and the Navy, I was the guy who could rip somebody, and they'd laugh at it.
girl fun guy
I always enjoy being full of fun, but I have my serious moments. Some women go for the studious kind of guy, I certainly was not that. If a girl is looking for somebody different and maybe a little more exciting for themselves - someone more on the fun side, I would suggest that they look for a type like Don Rickles.
wise vegas guy
When I first went to Vegas, there were just high-rollers and gamblers and the wise guys treated you great.
believe guy personality
I've never had guys sit me down and say this is what you've got to do. It's my personality that makes me one of a kind, and I believe that.
mean people guy
I would describe myself as a guy that's very normal but has the tendency to rib people, but never in a mean-spirited way.
fun kids guy
I was always the guy - out of insecurities, I was always making fun, even as a kid.
guy comedian trying
To my knowledge, I was the first guy really to do what I do. And then later on different comedians started trying doing it.
mean talking guy
I never could tell a joke. I just started talking to the audience, and when the drunks would yell, "Hey, when do the broads come on?" I got good at saying, "Relax. Clear your skin up first." They called me "the insult guy," but it's never mean-spirited. I'm just exaggerating everything about us and about life.
building cement god guy pounding street swear
When I walk down the street in New York, I swear to God, the building constructor, the guy pounding cement and what not, will yell, 'Hey, you hockey puck!'
best bob guys
Bob Newhart, who is my best friend, is one of the guys I adore.
club great room
Room service is great if you want to pay $500 for a club sandwich.
blew button sell
I couldn't sell air conditioners on a 98-degree day. When I demonstrated them in a showroom, I pushed the wrong button and blew the circuit.
hour
I ride a recumbent bike for half an hour every day.
