Dick Van Dyke has the best comeback for Piers Morgan on Twitter

You would think that Piers Morgan, who has sadly become the master of stupid jokes on Twitter, would leave a 92-year-old man alone.

Yet on Saturday morning, the Good Morning Britain presenter decided to take a dig at legendary actor Dick Van Dyke, more specifically at his name, tweeting:

Imagine being called Dick Van Dyke in the PC-crazed era? Poor guy, He'll have to change his name to Rich Van Non-Binary-Gender-Fluid

Morgan manages not only to be misogynistic with this tweet but also homophobic – it also really doesn't make that much sense.

But the 92-year-old comedian who first rose to fame after appearing in the original Mary Poppins film (and who just recently also starred alongside Emily Blunt in Mary Poppins Returns), responded with a perfect screenshot from his Nineties comedy series Diagnosis Murder in which he looks pretty unimpressed:

It seems that Van Dyke has learned that sometimes, when it comes to internet trolls like Piers, you're better off saying nothing at all.
