Curly's comments were especially to the point :-)

Curly may have had a limited vocabulary but his ripostes were on spot. 🙃

Yes, I remember he was funny. Do you happen to recall any of his zingers? :-)

One of my favorite skits was when Curly was on the witness stand in court, holding his hat in his hands, while listening to the judge's instructions. Curly's response to the judge was full of unintelligible slang and idioms. When the judge told Curly to "drop the vernacular", Curly looked at his hat and said, "it's a doiby!".

If they were to copyright their stupidity, SNL would have far less material without paying royalties. Shhhhh, don’t give them the idea. 🤦‍♂️

Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk! Don't forget Shemp as a frequent guest star (I think RFK Jr would do nicely). So much material to use! Like Moe's quote " every time you think, you weaken the nation." Moe was smarter than DT. A Wise Guy, eh!
