Rob Reiner is a national treasure and a very definitely sane person, along with being the genius that directed Spinal Tap and The Princess Bride.

Rob Schneider... had a recurring sketch on SNL where he called people silly names while sitting behind a desk.

You forgot to mention he's the worst part of a couple of Adam Sandler movies.

What you mean where he dresses up like a dirty homeless person and yells out you can do it? Cuz like that's the only thing I ever think of when I think of Rob Schneider

Common misconception.

That's just how he showed up on set.

I'm offended that you think you can just throw out a single sentence and encapsulate a whole man's career. You're taking the most well know bit and suggesting thats all he did. He's much more than a "one trick pony" and has added more to our cultural lexicon even with his early work in evening TV entertainment. He also is the genius who gave us "when harry met sally" and "a few good men"!

Is the humor too subtle? I'm referring to Rob Reiner.

Aw nobody is getting your joke. I upvoted you but it’s still negative.

He had me in the first half.
