Happy 99th Birthday Betty White

[Ranched]

♡ "Betty White is one step closer to a major milestone, and with insurrections, viruses and an economy that's tanked, at least we can all unite in this celebration.

Betty turned 99 today, and she waxed philosophical ... "I can stay up as late as I want without asking permission."

Well, maybe no philosophical, but Betty's awesome!!! Her plans for today ... feeding a couple ducks that hang at her L.A. home.

As for what's on the menu -- a hot dog and french fries, courtesy of her agent, Jeff Witjas."

I remember when she was on Mary Tyler Moore show, and I thought she was old then, but she would have been the age I am now. Lol

Curious why people are so into Betty White, her comedy, or something else?

Ageless.

Kudos to her and Happy Birthday!

Witty woman, she fits in with any generation. Congrats to her!

She jump started her career and awareness when she did "Lake Placid". She was the perfect fit for that oddball film.

Her language caught a lot of people off guard just as Ruth Gordon did in the Every Which Way films. I grew up with Betty White a mainstay of TV sitcoms and she was nothing like what she has revealed in the last 20 years. That video of her and Ryan Reynolds on the set of their latest film pretty much captures how most of us would like to grow old, on our own terms.

I wanted to post that particular video but good ole site rules #4 and #13 stopped me.

I think Reynolds and White should keep that schtick going like Kimmel has with Matt Damon.

Damn

She is America's Treasure there. One of the last of her kind!

99 years old is a fantastic run. And still going! Good for her.

Legend. I was just watching re runs of the golden girls the other night.

that show is still funny.

Why is she a treasure? Because she was on Golden Girls?

I mean anyone can argue what “treasure” means.

but she has been on TV for over 80 years. Longer than any other person, ever.

she has won like 30 emmy’s

she has been on multiple successful sitcoms. Also including the Mary Tyler Moore show along as golden girls.

she has been a staple on a ton of game shows. On Saturday night live, etc

she is one of the most accomplished tv actresses in history.

My parents taught me to not say anything at all in cases like these.

A treasure to fans as in her comedy skills. I guess I find her comedy bland, but that's me.
