In his honor, be funny.

And smart.

@serpicojam Living proof that you can be old, rich, and not inevitably be “more conservative with age.”

@serpicojam He's such an influential comedian.

@jhooper @serpicojam Also a mentor to so many, including David Lynch.

Remember it was Mel who took a chance on him to direct The Elephant Man after he saw Eraserhead.

@serpicojam I'm imagining Brooks going "Oy, stop with the blessings already, you think it's fun being 99?"

@serpicojam Mel Brooks will forever be remembered as the master of parody. The good one, that's often subtle and witty, but always unforgettably funny. Space Balls and Roobin Hood and the men in thighs were my all time favorites, especially since I'm a Star Wars fan and I got a lot od references back then. I hope Space Balls 2 will be good. I miss good parodies.

@serpicojam I can be a little smart. And on a good day I can be a tiny bit funny. Nowhere near hus league.
