How watching Andy Rooney go through his kitchen drawers became my favorite thing
at their desks, complete with B-roll of said women typing away.) And, as a chronicler of the everyday, he had a preoccupation with food: His segments covered ice cream, tipping, and a topic called “Maybe I’ll Open a Restaurant” .
Andy Rooney was always dimly on my radar, as one of those celebrities you could know but choose not to, until a friend found his videos online. I was a comedy fan , but this wasthan comedy, much funnier than anything anyone could do on purpose. By far, my favorite “Few Minutes” involved Andy making his way through a drawer of utensils from his kitchen.
“I’m a sucker for any new kitchen tool,” he begins, and proceeds to pick up each utensil and describe what it does and why he doesn’t use it. The second contraption that the aged Andy shows us is a bread slicer — no longer necessary in the age of sliced bread. The third utensil? Another bread slicer.
On it goes. Andy considers a series of nutcrackers, can openers , and more mysterious tools: “this is a nice one,” he says, holding up something that looks archaic and comb-like, “but again, I don’t know what it does — and again, I have two of them.” The whole thing feels like a stand-up set where the punchlines almost make sense — and are better because they don’t. Grasping a honey dipper, Andy says: “Some of you probably know what this is: It’s for dipping honey out of a jar. Why didn’t the bees think of that?”And, characteristically, Andy has some minor wisdom to share.
