For real?
For real.
I’m not saying it wasn’t a set up, though, because . . . you know what those Canadians are like.
Trebek [with feigned shock]: No . . . nonono. Is that what they teach you at school in Utah?”
Chuck: Please frame that in the form of an answer, Alex.
Actually, I made that last sentence up.
Syndicated tv has more better commercial recall than other forms of the tv. Like little sponges, these viewers. Of course, it a lot skews female. But still, I think about this sometimes when I think about how pernicious and stupid memes like second hand smoke or global warming get a foothold. Recall doesn’t mean buy-in of course, but syndicated tv viewers really do want to believe I think. I think mostly this is because watching tv in the daytime correlates strongly with emptiness. These are thoughts occasioned by what is a hoe? Alex while I wait for a phone call.
I think it would have been humaner to ask, “Who is a hoe?”
I’m just relieved it wasn’t “What is a spade?” I mean, the guy’s from UTAH, fercryinoutloud.
Intaanetto Hi-Ho!
The three or four seconds before Chuck buzzed in stretched out like the edge of a knife, as Connery’s mind went blank.
Ah, Dan beat me to the spade line. And only by 11 hours. So close.
It’s been YouTubed.
Oh, a rake.
If McGehee hadn’t chimed in I wouldn’t have known the correct answer.
That guy Ken is one of their all-time champions I think as in he made a seriously long run of wins on that show.
Cranky, I only got it by watching the YouTube. Once upon a time I would have known it, but I think I’ve been hanging out with a veritable cornucopia of bad influences.
Not sure where…
I thought it was something more obscure.
