      @@jjwhyte14 it was at a concert where his buddy Paul Shaffer was performing. He took the stage to tell some funny stories and sing Frank Sinatra’s “That’s Life”. After the show, he came up to me and said hello, as I was waiting for one of my friends who played in the band. I tried my best not to get starstruck and have a normal conversation with him. Very friendly, approachable and a general good guy

      @@CadillacFrank Thanks for a fantastic story on many levels! The irony that Martin Short is (as I expected), "very friendly, approachable and a general good guy" and yet he parodies Jerry Lewis, a polar opposite personality adds to the hilarity of this skit. I most definitely would have been starstruck, or at least tongue-tied. I'll admit that my only familiarity with Paul Shaffer's musical talent is from many years of watching him as David Letterman's musical director in the 80s. I'll have to broaden my horizons. Currently, my only connection to Paul Shaffer and Martin Short is that all three of us were born in Canada. Very cool that you got to meet them both! (I'm assuming you met Paul Shaffer, too - maybe not).

    “But the trends of the thing” is the funniest line in human history for a good reason. You can tell it's in there ONLY to provide the symmetry against the previous phrase, "not only to the fashion of his times."
    Short was smart enough to make a joke out of “not only A, but B” phrasing structure *by not actually having a “B” and showing it.* There is no new information you can symmetrically pair with “fashions” if you use “trend” because they’re synonyms.
    So so great! I wish I could sky write “Has always been a protester, not only to the fashion of his times, but the trends of the thing," all over the skies of the world!

      I know this is late, but what really stands out for me in this phrase is the word "thing", as if he ran out of inspiration at the end and could only think of the most obvious word available. Comedy is complicated....

      @@greatunz67 as iconic as many sketches from the original cast are, it was still finding its way so there were also some of the most spectacular misses of the show's run, and the sense after chevy left that eventually everyone was going to be moving on to other things. by the time phil hartman arrived, eddie's time re-established the show as a saturday night must-see, but phil brought "the glue" to the show. he forged the first real "cast" since the original troupe, add the fact he was probably the most incredible character creator-i think about 220 different characters are attributed to him on snl and another 60 voices on the simpsons-and on top of that the high-powered veteran comic and big-screen talent came through during those years to be part of that cast & writers...yeah, it's the hartman years.
