Not true -- in my high school (98-01), we used to quote Dangerfield all the time. Mostly, "no respect!", but also some other 1-liners. Like "they used to call me humpy-dumpty cuz first i humped 'em, and then i dumped 'em". Ok, it's all in the delivery, but you get the point.
This is totally off topic, but remember that movie "Ladybugs" that he was in? Well the kid who played the main character in that movie committed suicide a few miles away from where i live (in la). It was in the newspaper, i think last year. anyhoo ...
