Sunday Morning Bobblehead Thread

Just a quick note to the universe to send Tim Conway in peace and in comfort from all the joy he's brought to this world. Having experienced a loved one suffer with dementia, I know how devastating this end-stage can be for his family.

I have a weird love of watching men giggle (currently filled by Nick Offerman) because of how much and how often Tim Conway could make Harvey Korman break. It was the best part of The Carol Burnett Show for me. I wouldn't even pay attention to the skit, but just watch Harvey Korman's face intently as he tried to hold it together and then utterly fail. Conway said in an interview a few years ago that Korman admitted to him that this particular skit made him laugh until he peed his pants. I can't think of a better legacy: "I was the man who made Harvey Korman laugh until he peed his pants."

That's something to take pride in, not like these Trump apologists. I imagine that the conversation this weekend will shift somewhat in light of the death of John McCain, but frankly, it's just another excuse not to hold the GOP accountable at all for their subverting of democratic norms and constitutional duties.
