Humpday diversion from unsavory politics

I mean, aren’t there targets other than race-baiting socialist charismats on whom we should be concentrating our derision? Like, for instance, street-theater capitalist charismats named David Blaine?

To wit:

How I do so miss the joyful innocence of a Doug Henning “Muppet Show” appearance. And gas lines.

    WARNING: NOT REALLY DAVID BLAINE. FAILURE TO RECOGNIZE SUCH COULD RESULT IN MR BLAINE TIME TRAVELING BACK TO THE MOMENT OF YOUR CONCEPTION AND ABORTING YOU, THUS DESTROYING THE INTEGRITY OF THE SPACE TIME CONTINUUM.

  2. NukemHill says:

    Silpa = Goldstein, right?

    He does look kinda like you. I remember thinking that the first time I saw the first video.

  3. NukemHill says:

    Which indicates, sadly, that I’ve seen these videos more than once.

    I’ll be leaving now….

  4. JD says:

    Holy Jeebus, that was hysterical. “He just pissed orange soda”.

  5. happyfeet says:

    I laughed some but not to where anyone was like hey what are you watching that’s so funny. I think everyone here is grumpy is part of it. I’m having an ok day though and thank you for sharing this cause I have a short attention span today but still that killed almost five minutes but now I’m like what next. I tried Diet Pepsi MAX (with ginseng and caffeine) cause it’s supposed to be invigorating but they lied. Now I think I will go throw guinea pigs into traffic for awhile. I will see you later.

  6. lee says:

    Bye Happy…thanks for sharing.

  7. happyfeet says:

    oh. I came back. People were looking at me funny.

  8. Benedick says:

    Hey, I was just driving along and a guinea pig hit my windshield. So I stopped the car and retrieved it. It’s still alive (barely). Free guinea pig. Slightly damaged. Like I found it at T.J. Max in the “Irregulars” bin.

    By the way, hf, “guinea pig” is obviously racial code. Denunciations upon us both.

  9. Dash Rendar says:

    I’ve been inspired to get a diet pepsi, and o, that video is racist I think b/c there aren’t any black people in it and even if there were its racist to do magic tricks that fool minorities.

  10. happyfeet says:

    oh. That was Penelope I bet. She was all squirmy and didn’t spin right and went kind of wide.

  11. McGehee says:

    Happy, when people say toss some pig on the grill, I don’t think they mean the radiator grille.

    Cavy marinated in Prestone doesn’t taste so good.

  12. you got a problem with Italians hf?

  13. McGehee says:

    They all taste like garlic, is what I’ve heard.

  14. happyfeet says:

    Italians I like better than Italian Americans usually. Or maybe it’s just New Yorkers.

  15. urthshu says:

    “Italian” is a code word for “wop”

  16. lee says:

    HF, sometimes you gotta duct tape them.

    Next time, you might want to do this, you get more entertainment, and less random witnesses.

  17. Dash Rendar says:

    It’s raining this morning in Shanghai.
    Nobody here actually says,”Ching ching chong.”

  19. Spies, Brigands, and Pirates says:

    Something tells me that wasn’t the first time those guys had heard “$100” and “trick” in the same sentence.

  20. JD says:

    I do not care if they are Italian-Americans or Italians. They created prosciutto panino and pancetta, for which I will be eternally grateful.

  21. JD says:

    Spies – That was clearly some code-word racism. Consider yourself denounced. Denouced, and condemned.

  22. ducktrapper says:

    Guinea pig toss? Jeepers, next thing you know we’ll be drinking Valurite and killing hoboes with Ace. I need to be denouced! Really!

  23. Benedick says:

    I’m going to Vegas tomorrow to “invest” my money in blackjack. I’d rather give it to Harrah’s than to Barack. Plus, better rate of return than equities.

  24. Carin says:

    Ducktrapper – we pretend to be a bit more highbrow over here. We may toss Guinea pigs, but we drink a nice Sauvignon Blanc or a single-malt Scotch while we do it.

  25. Carin says:

    And, instead of killing hobos, we keeps gays and blacks chained-up in our basement.

  26. ducktrapper says:

    While I’m all for the dungeons and all, I have to admit that my drink is Wiser’s Reserve. Mmmmmm. Canadian whiskey! Try it, you like!

  27. ducktrapper says:

    … and they all moved away from me on the Group W bench.

    Man. Of all the things to spark the memory…. I saw an AmEx ad on the tube yesterday that had a clip of Jim Henson, and I got a little pang. Why did he, of all people, have to be the one who died (relatively) young?

  29. SteveG says:

    black people used to drink orange soda back when it was called Nehi and cost a nickel.

    Racist

  30. Spies, Brigands, and Pirates says:

    Yeah, I always liked Doug Henning.

    I was kinda surprised, though, when I found out he wasn’t gay (just Canadian).

  31. Mars vs Hollywood says:

    black people used to drink orange soda back when it was called Nehi and cost a nickel.

    Racist

    In the movie Undercover Brother the black superspy’s car has an orange soda dispenser in it.

    I’m racist for having remembered that. Also for seeing that movie. I denounce myself, and SteveG for good measure.

  32. zoyclem says:

    Jeff,

    Hey! Thanks for the mention for our site. It’s nice to get the noticed by one of the best writers on the web.

  33. Slartibartfast says:

    That was pretty damned funny. Especially the idiots.

  34. mcgruder says:

    saw it a few weeks ago.
    bone crushingly funny.
