And that’s even with Perry in the field, which seems increasingly likely.
Pikachus wept.
Having said that, if Perry gets in my bet is that Palin does not. Which would be a shame. Obama is planning on running on the idea that all the problems in the economy were inherited from a former Texas Governor. Giving him a Texas Governor to bounce that off of might not be the best strategy. And frankly, it frightens me that many of the establishment GOP types are high on this guy.
Whereas, re-introducing Palin, who instantly takes us back to the 2008 election and the choice of Obama which has led to this fiscal nightmare, is quite a powerful reminder that reversing course with a pro-growth capitalist is probably the better bet than going all in with a Marxist whose record has since revealed him as such. And that this time, there’d be no McCain to gum up the works.
run run rudolph sarah save the christmas!
We live in interesting times.
If a pikachu cries hard enough, it electrocutes itself.
I can think of quite a few conservative pundits and commentstors that don’t even belong on the Island of Misfit Toys–instead Santa and Lord Moonraker should send them off on a melting ice flow.
i have a sting-ray bike with big banana spokes[ up front]
i got the gangster lean yo
and i have enuff room in the back for a palin bumper sticker
no bike helmet, i’m an outlaw!
If only.
Perry might be waiting for Palin. If she’s going to run, she’ll announce around the end of the month, once she can’t be attacked any more about her “misdeeds” as governor (of which there weren’t any, but that never stopped a progressive).
Ready to place bets on how long this thread gets because of ‘feets anti-Pailinism?
she’ll announce around the end of the month, once she can’t be attacked any more about her “misdeeds” as governor
At least not legally. Politically? Most. Ethically. Challenged. Governor. Evah!
ten gajillion complaints can’t be wrong.
i come on this site for among other things
happyfeets comments
he, she , it is kinda funny
just saying
a little early to greenlight the sequel I’d say
Mr. buttons I already messaged out two of your comments on messenger today
you have many fans!
I just send out the comments and people reply back and say…
buttons!
or
buttons?
and I say yup
Yeah, Ernst, I meant legally. Politically they will attempt to shred her to teeny tiny itty bitty bits. If she’s not tough enough to survive it, she should stay out, because fair or not it would come.
At least he has a place to vent vent vent vent vent about his issues. I guess that’s sort of a good thing.
Help, Mr. SBP, I don’t wanna be buried in comments from the electric hamster!
Drizzle, drazzle, drozzle, drome, time for this one to come home.
she should make a porn movie- cha ching
just like introduce it
no, never mind
i’m an- as my sisters call me
an asshole
my sister brenda still thinks highly of me
karen and audrey, not so much
Wait, so a documentary marketed through social media didn’t outperform Harry Potter in its limited theater release, therefore…what?
Oh, that’s right. Nothing.
I’d think you should be more concerned with the poll numbers. And the fact that the real target marketing of that movie was always meant to be DVDs being passed out and around, PPV, online streaming, and whatever vids are cut from it, should Palin run.
But hey: so long as you’ve got your li’l nishi fallback argument — namely, that you can’t succeed unless you pleasure the Hollywood liberal set — you can keep telling yourself that the mean old Christian with the weird speech won’t be able to get some of her hick on you.
well it was just interesting to me how they raised expectations that they had this big hit on their hands and then the box is kinda ho-hum even with maximally cherry-picked venues
Giving him a Texas Governor to bounce that off of might not be the best strategy.
I think Perry would eat Barry alive. Just on the “Each of us inherited a government from Dubya; guess who did better?” angle. Or the “Texas created more jobs than the rest of the country put together. Wouldn’t you like to share that kind of success in your states?” angle.
And Palin can bring considerable energy to any campaign she wants, whether it be her own or not. I’d love to see her swing through California, enjoying cupcakes all across the state, perhaps starting a “Cupcakes Are Life” campaign. But then, I’m known for inflicting cognitive dissonance on those who annoy me.

Cite? Or are you making shit up again?
yahoo! messenger is what I use mostly and sometimes people message me interesting things but mostly no one tells me anything
Blockquote fail.
I welcome Palin running–not just for the obvious reasons, but mostly to see the failshit pikachu’s cranium detonate, after the verbal meltdown.
I assume y’all keep it around for comic relief or as an example.
here is a link for you Mr. cranky
lots of fizzy fuzzy big and buzzy tweeters and links for to see
sarah got the screech very few woman have the low tones
laura ingram/ sally kellerman
The revolution is about Main Street.
I can see Palin pushing a shopping cart in Krogers. Not so much Perry.
With him you think evil corporations and big oil with folks who look and sound like Larry Hagman pulling the strings. And i’m sure that isn’t fair to Perry but that is how he will be portrayed.
Romney is yesterday. Bachmann is too socially conservative for my liking. I know zip about Pawlenty and that is very telling. I wish Cain the best of luck but i don’t think he’ll make the cut.
So if i had to choose today, I’d go with Palin, reserving the right to change my mind if one of the Governors like Christie, Walker or Kassich get in.
Bristol worries me though.
You’re citing the marketing tweets as evidence? They’re marketing! You’re (allegedly) in marketing!
Congratulations, ‘feets — you’ve gone from obscuring your intelligence to insulting mine. Go choke on a cupcake already.
the only point is that there was a lot of build-up that they had a big hit… but the reception was fairly mild as these things go
they raised expectations but didn’t deliver
Of those known to be in the race, the only one I actively don’t want is Romney. Warmed-over 2008 also-rans need not apply.
Oh wait — there’s Huntsman too. Him either. Sorry, Jon, how could you expect anyone to see you there if you insist on standing in Obama’s shadow?
Other than that I really don’t know of anyone I absolutely would not support in November against Obama. Either Cain or Palin would be a pleasure to vote for. I could imagine going to vote for Rick Perry with a bit of a spring in my step too, assuming he doesn’t start qualifying his claimed conservatism with words like “compassionate” or “pragmatic.”
i bought sarah a tambourine so she can do a susan dey impersonating
i wish she would buy a bus though
hey, mrs tambourine man
sing a song for me
in this jingle jangle world
i’ll come
following you
for example Mr. Squid look at how another recent propaganda film performed – this one did more business in one theater on its opening weekend ($68,969) than Sarah’s did in ten theaters
Twitter? Really?
You’re a tool.
Moore had major studio distribution. But you just keep advancing the fail narrative, Mr Staunch. And building up the left.
It won’t make the vajayjay any less scary, but you’ll have a nice support group to fall back on.
Someone creates a twitter account to sell the move and that’s “raising expectations they had a big hit on their hands?” You are deranged.
mr. Cranky on the twitter there are a ton of links to articles – admittedly, mostly from Stacy McCain – what build up expectations that this movie was gonna be a big hit with lots of people flocking to theaters to see Sarah’s triumphant story – note what Mr. McCain says he very specifically says “This movie constitutes a 2012 straw poll.“
The American people have chosen. It’s Michael Moore they want!
Theater receipts prove it!
“The only point is that there was a lot of build-up that they had a big hit…”
Sure, but not as big a build-up as, “This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.”
Plus, anything positive said about Palin that Palin isn’t involved in is “propaganda.” Whereas anything negative is just sober, unvarnished truth telling.
Staunch!
that’s not what I’m saying the point is that her movie’s box office performance throws cold water on any rah rah talk about the film being some kind of huge hit what she could build a campaign launch around
Of course, the big difference between the two movies, if comparing them is somehow relevant, is that I don’t know anyone that was terribly interested in seeing a flick about Palin, the leftoids will go to anything that confirms the narrative.
They’re like fucking zombies.
Sicko is on netflix now but I haven’t clicked on it

Okay, so Stacy McCain, one blogger, is the voice of big promotion. I’m not sure he gets a huge amount of traffic, but okay, he’s a frelling genius and what he says reflects on everyone, according to you.
I happen to like his writing, but what he wrote is one man’s opinion.
And, you take that opinion as building up a huge expectation that has now been dashed. Right.
Your ability to reason is apparently non-existent. You are the best shill the left could hope for around here.
Every smear about Palin, it defends. Every defense of Palin, it smears. Could you be any more transparent, ‘feets? Why don’t you change your avatar to a pane of glass? Better yet, why don’t you seek help for your issues with scary conservative women?
Next thing you know, ‘feets will be crowing about how Palin’s biggest promoter may or may not be a racist. Just asking questions. Airing things out.
Fucking rodent.
From now on, I’ll just assume everything the electric hamster says is bullshit, because so far, that’s all it has ever been.
u could cut off sarah palins feets and with her nose she would nudge the winning fieldgoal cuz she is notre dame and touchdown jesus is smiling

Undefeated the movie hasn’t hit the DVD market yet. I’ll bet it’ll do very well there.
The poll numbers are encouraging. We’ll see if they get better after she floats banning gay pickachu sex in Los Angeles, and sending Kevin Jennings off as ambassador to Greco-Roman spas in Amsterdam.
Thanks for sharing. I can see Obama pushing a lie in Chicago.
when does the dvd come out?
JHoward
That was meant as a compliment. Speaks to her realness, much like most people would have rather had a beer with Bush than either Kerry or Gore.
For Obama to push a lie in Chicago he would have to take a stand, when has he done that?

The Pikachu is wearing thin. My daughters loved Pokemon, and I enjoyed their love of it but I’m about to go all Godzilla on his sexist ass.
Palin is not exactly my cuppa,( although I love her to death ) but neither are anyone else at the moment. Anyone but Romney will be fine.
Hopenchangeyfeet, is there anyone actually running for president that you like?
I can live with Perry Mr. McGehee cause of Texas is being raped and pillaged by the EPA something piteous.
But I wouldn’t take a bullet for him or anything.
But I wouldn’t take a bullet for him or anything.
Who would you take a bullet for? Just so’s we know where to aim.
Feets, I have a hunch you wouldn’t take a bullet for anything but a fucking Red Velvet cupcake….that’s not what we OUTLAWS need. Why don’t you just go play with nishi and leave the conservation of this failshit little country to the actual conservatives, mmmkay?
how about a swiss cake roll?
Nah New, not into pastry…..a BBQ brisket? I’d take on the whole of Amyndas commentariat!!
Three figures?
I say we get into three figures before midnight MT.
no swiss cake roll me and NG went for tasty pancakes this morning
Mr. Blitz the thing about bullets is that even if you want to take one it’s tricky cause of they move very very fast. Faster than the eye can see even. Like cheetahs!
off topic:
this is all about feather-nesting government union whores
it’s very bad for America
Shortly after the theatrical release ends.
I bet it will have lots of extras
Feets? RE your #71. I know more about ballistics than you know about cupcakes OR cheetahs, but I digress…
Bumblefuck SAID he was going to do this to the energy companies again and again and again…WHEN THE FUCK is the general low info voter going to wake up and say ” OW!! My wallet hurts “?
Until then? I think it best that you reconsider your sexist approach to Presidential politics. Palin and Bachman are serious contenders. In fact? I’d love to see a Palin/Bachman ticket.
I’m a gonna sign off before I go all TLD here.
Opens in more cities tomorrow.
Nobel Corp gets a mention over here too. Seems they can’t even escape.
they say Greater Los Angeles and then you click and it means they want you to drive your ass out to Ontario which is almost like going to Riverside
Why would they open such a failshit movie in more theaters? It’s as if it were actually doing okay.
Yeah, no one lives in Ontario.
I bookmarked that for tomorrow that looks like it could be a bad bad situation Mr. sdferr
NG says Ontario is like halfway to Palm Springs cause of how the traffic starts thinning out the further east you go
How the fuck could Ontario support a 30-plex theater? No one lives there, and no one would go there.
Here’s a short video worth watching. Could be a vision of our future one day, even. At least it’s easy to see why Obama ignores them.
Me?

How the fuck could Ontario support a 30-plex theater? No one lives there, and no one would go there.
Are you kidding? Take a short 2 minute walk across the parking lot from that 30 screen theater (AMC Ontario Mills 30) and you’re at a 22 screen theater (Edwards Ontario Palace Stadium 22). 52 screens combined within a 1/4 mile radius (and I believe the latest Harry Potter movie is on 34 of those 52 screens).
Start at 79, Dave in SoCal, and decide if I’m serious or not. You might want to read 39 and 78 as well.
Could be an interesting test case.
Who gives a fuck about Canada?
Damn Canadians. We’re going to have to invade them one day, you know. It’s too dangerous to leave them to their own devices.
Besides, they have a lot of oil, and we have this reputation to protect of only invading countries because they have oil. Plus, they’re close, so travel time is cut way down.
Make no mistake, more hockey movies is the answer.
Where’s the curling movie? They’ve got the low cost production services. Fucking Canada let us down.

This is why it all goes to hell online. You can’t just grab people and look them in the eye. Buy them a bourbon.
It’s all misunderstandings and problems. Even though that only happens every year or so in real life.
Here, we’re just supposed to believe it’s normal that it happens every couple weeks.
I say no. I protest.
I do. I protest.
Kippers for everyone.
The problem online is people don’t behave as they would in person. In person, a man always knows that if he crosses the line he might get punched in the face. Online, one can say some vile shit and never pay a price for it.
That’s a huge part of it, cranky.
There’s another part, too. Where if people pretended to be offended by something their friends would just call them pussies. And another part, where if people say overly bombastic crap to a shit talker they’d also have to stand out in the parking lot and deal with it.
None of this normal. It’s not simulcra. It’s just weird bullshit.
“their friends said we’d just call them pussies”, that should be
Happyfeets writes nearly intelligently as you’d expect a marketing puke to write. I’m not saying anything about buttons because I’m afraid blather might be catching.
(Should be said that I find our pw Minnesotans to be rather well balanced. These things should always be stated and it’s lost in the context because lots of people aren’t from the uppper midwest. But, yeah, you purple sons of bitches aren’t the worst thing that ever happened to this planet. Possibly not even the second worst thing.)
Bmoe: Smooches! to you, too. And everyone else. But mostly Bmoe.
there’s not even any such thing as a marketing puke you made that up!
Too cool pic of Atlantis away off coming home.
I hate to say it but Romney seems almost inevitable at this point. There are too many “teaparty” candidates and they are going to tear each other apart like crabs trying to crawl out of a bucket. Palin v. Bachmann v. Cain v. Perry will split the vote four ways, while Romney will pick up 100% of the so-called RINO vote. You may not like RINOs but they still vote, especially in New Hampshire. My official prediction – Romney/Bachmann 2012.

We should sometimes decide if we’re going to be honest or not.
Let’s imagine that I was out with Roddy and all of a sudden Crawford said something like Roddy should die of a shotgun accident?
Let’s imagine that.
‘Cause, we think about ‘feets quite a bit.
What do you think happens there? How do you think that goes down?
Let’s imagine this. Because we’re objective.
Well, I don’t want to speak for the room, but I can’t tell you how glad I am that you’ve called it for us, Sterling. Thank you ever so much.

coming from a doof who admits voting for Obama.
whatevs
I’m guessing everybody gets to drinking at some point.
They put a hotwire to my head
‘cuz of the things I did and said.
They made these feelings go away,
but those feelings get in every way.*
It’s just a thought I have sometimes, Pablo. When nr talks shit to Bob. When Crawford talks like he’s tough?
Are these things we’re taking seriously?
‘Cause, I sometimes take things like this seriously.
Who knows though, maybe I didn’t get the list.
and then we would all say Mr. Crawford that is not the path. No it’s not. Pray with us, Robert, and let the lord fill you with his spirit of forgiveness and love.
And together we would pray and pray.
Then after that we would pray some mores. Cause of the Catholics always want to do their own fancy prayers.
Then it would all be as a ripple passing along the surface of a pond in a verdant meadow. Only stillness and beauty would remain.
My advice, lighten up; cut your friends plenty of slack, and your enemies none…
People have different points of view, and there’s a continuum of social skill and politesse; and there’s definitely something to the whole, “not having to look someone in the eye while saying it”, and the corresponding lines one dare not cross in meatspace. And face it, I suspect that online there are a lot of folks that aren’t so adept, socially, in real life, nor anywhere near as swaggering or aggressive.
And there’s also the pathos of those crying out for attention, and willing to suffer any level of insult as an acrid substitute for the sincere love and fellowship they never seem to find in the world around them.
There are myriad reasons why people’s lack of ability to consider any form of compromise, think rationally, extend common courtesy, or admit that they could possibly be wrong, are horribly amplified; and most of that revolves around the anonymity of cyberspace.
We had many of the same kind of ego clashes in the Navy, but we always kept those personal struggles subordinate to the common good; mostly owing to the firm, sure hand of the Skipper when we were JOs, and later because we came to realize fully the important life lesson that for all our individual swagger, bluster, and colorful actions that there were other people, who deep down you loved and respected like family, as well as a whole lot of folks back home, that were depending on your skill and dedication; on you fulfilling your role, and not any of the posturing or your brilliance as a self-aggrandizing raconteur.
That was all saved for later, after a job well done, when we could all laugh, poke, rib, prod, tease, goad, and recollect embarrassing anecdotes; like any close knit family does at gatherings on any given day. Or pehaps as imposrtantly, realize when all that was inappropriate; when a brother needed the support and reassurance of the fold.
A lot of times in forums like this, the crew balkanizes based on who they “like”. And when people complain about “their boy”, or gal as it were, in a sense it’s like questioning their judgement, beliefs, and in extreme cases their committment to the common cause. And all too often, the person being subject to that treatment responds by conjuring up things to “fight back” against the person that his critics support. It’s a not unlike tribal squabbles, or folks arguing about butter sports rivalries. And really, it’s counterproductive…
The primaries is the time to weed out the weak candidates, and pick someone who’d be a good leader and standard bearer for our shared ideals. It’s not the time for bitter acrimony building exercises…
There’s a mission, and it’s both manifold and bigger than any one of our egos. The mission is to beat Obama, and to get this country humming again; to get us back to where we ought to be.
So as I said, lighten up; cut your friends plenty of slack, and your enemies none…
Who’s with me?
As long as it’s just bh and Pablo in the mix, I don’t take it too seriously. Jeff, I worry about, but I suspect he does that a lot better than I do.
Thanks for the kind words BMoe, right back at you bro!
God I love butter, but imagine butter sports! Oh mama.
happyfeet, #133 is a beautiful thought, and one of the ways I’d hope we’d talk one another “down of that ledge”, or, “Texas Tower”, if necessary.
I feel like I probably don’t need to worry about Bob much either.
Well, imagine if we were on the same team. There would be loud intro music and other folks would get the shit slapped out of them.
Take it seriously, sir. Take it very seriously.
great, great, just let me order fruity drinks for everybody. feel the love.
Mr. Bob it’s kinda weird cause it was way way after Charlie Whitman’s mischief but I always knew where I was in relation to the tower when I was on the UT campus … that was such a crazy crazy day
“butter sports!”
More like butter fingers! And the movement of that verdamnt text box! And that I haven’t had a
personal typing slaveadministrative warfare specialist since retiring!It’s all so unfair…Why aren’t I rich, in addition to being handsome, witty, charming, and devil-may-care :)
Fruity drinks tend to make me barf. No one would enjoy that.
and i hate fruit.
I do, which is why I keep my exposure low. If SWSNBN didn’t teach you anything, nothing will. I don’t see any pots really boiling here, though.
Jesus Christ. You people sound like my cousins from Minneapolis whenever they encounter my friends and I in NY/NJ verbally abusing each other. Grow some testicles, you pussies.

That was more where I was kidding.
I should throw in a joke here or there but if felt implicit.
Probably the same with you. This is why it all goes to shit online.
I am exactly the same in my comments as I am in real life. except more insouciant. And way more handsome.
Okay, I feel as though I haven’t been understood.
I will kill each and every one of you.
Are we clear?
(Totally serious.)
Those scandi cheese-churning gefeltefish-eating lower Canadians tend to be wise.
Thanks for the compliment Pablo. I feel like we’re all boyz here, except, you know, the gals. I mean they’re part of the gand too, just not boyz; and I suspect they like it that way.
okay, okay help me out here. slight chance RTO calls vs. OMG OMG I’ve got to go see Capt. America, cause that’s what we’d do if he was here.
which would you do?
You know, BH, I’ve wondered if a guy like Crawford would say that to my face. And then I think of all the crap Ive taken for what I’ve written over the years, the hate and the bluster and its ok.
Half weird and half sad.
Wait for RTO to call and ask him is what I’d do.
Do you mean kill-kill bh, or just cause us to fall on the floor laughing. ‘Cuz if it’s the first, give me a head start at least, and if it’s the second let me hit the head first.
plus, you know, maybe Crawford is right and I am an idiot. I doubt it, but there could be some truth to it.
Wait for the call. The movie will be there another time when he won’t have free time to call.
/two cents
RTO calling is, well, not a guaranteed kind of thing.
Yeah, it’s fucked up, Roddy.
go see the movie for sure Mr. RTO likes history and it’s very historical cause of Mr. Captain America was the very first avenger
and Cap is his favorite superhero.
Well, Roddy, you’re an idiot. As I am.
But, that nonsense? It’s fucked up. Not cool.
Rule #1, JD is always right.
Rule #2, If you even think JD is wrong, see #154.
Mr. Crawford is just vituperative Mr. mcgruder
it’s a thing
I don’t like any of you sumbitches.
But’s that only ’cause I’m on my
firstsecond whisky coke.3 more and I’ll lurve youse guyz.
Mostly.
Crawford’s kind of an extreme example, because the guy makes no effort to cultivate relationships with people. With the exception of trolls, I don’t really think it’s right – and it’s for damn sure antisocial behavior – to basically be aloof except when you choose to lower the boom on someone. It’s the antithesis of communal behavior.
OK Maggie, then change the answering machine message to say you’re out seeing Captain America, don’t be too jealous, I’m vetting it for you anyway, and I’ll tell you all about it…Next time you call…
Your lovely wife,
Maggie.
I tend to be a bit anti-social in real life too. Better half tried to drag me to some charity fundraiser tonight, and told me I would meet some interesting people, make some new friends, I told her I don’t get to send enough time with the friends that I already have, and if I wanted to talk to some interesting people, I would hang out here.
I come from a long line of ballbusters. If we’re not trashing each other, we wonder if there’s a problem. My brother likes to greet me as Dogbreath. I tend to call him Maggot. Fuckin’ Irishmen, huh?
What JD said, too.
That’s pretty much a hate crime, hate crimer.
What are you, racist?
Meh, I’m a bitch. Really. Bmoe will swear to it. Plus, he usually sees me with a 7 iron, so he can be counted on to vouch for that. Right, Bmoe?
Yeah. I didn’t mean anti-social in that way, JD. More in the sense that the borderline hostility that can flare up around here is kind of mitigated by the fact that before and after people have the ability to casually interact on things ranging from the serious to the frivolous. Do you think that Crawford knows of happyfeet’s fondness for cupcakes and gay-friendly dance music? Or that you and Roddy both collect porcelain kittens? I think not.
What, you want to use the I-word? Maybe the leprechaun word? Maybe the whiskey-loving word?
Maybe… the tan-less word?
You disgust me.
Racist.
Porcelain kittens? Is that a new form of taxidermy? So when mine pass on, I can keep them for life? Is there a piggy-bank-conversion option?
Only JD has the credentials to level the official PW RAAAAACIST! charge…
Bound-over-steppers.
Oh no Bob, porcelain kitten collection is code for the people with a fondness for spit-roasted honest to God kitten eating. There are still some loves that dare not speak their names.
Porcelain kittens?!? Shirley, you jest.
My best friend calls me assface. He is referred to as cumbucket.
Oh, come on Bob. You know exactly the kind of figurines I’m talking about. Just because you have a glass case full of ceramic goats and Hummel gnomes in your living room, it doesn’t give you the right to crack on those who prefer kittehs.
i had a blue cat
i called him “blue’
Why worry about me?
It’s even better than that Abe, I have ceramic goats and Hummel gnomes gayly jitterbugging together…Accompanied by a Swing band made up entirely of ceramic Sambos…Who are spit-roasting kittens…
All these delusions, and no drugs involved. I don’t know whether that’s creative or frightening.
My cat’s are saying frightening.
“Who’s with me?”
Now you’re talkin Mr!
How bout we call a planning conference. NYC in two weeks. The topic will be operation neutraromney. We’ll set the strategy, review the tactics, calibrate our weapons and coordinate our strike.
Bob can get the JAG to endorse the plan, bh covers security, pdb will scramble the messages and JD will be in charge of public affairs.
i have a chip clip that i keep at a distance cuz
it once bit my finger
I don’t think, in point of fact, that we have any genuine Minnesotans around here. I have it on good authority that authentic Minnesotan-ness is a blood and soil thing.
I have an answer for that.
It involves your sort of scary training routine.
On second thought, maybe a high school girlfriend isn’t such a good authority.
Is “public affairs” codeword for auditioning and hiring strippers?
If you have Hummel gnomes, you’ve been reeped off, man!
i am building a tiny tiny pianer
to trap schroeder
“It’s just a thought I have sometimes, Pablo. When nr talks shit to Bob. When Crawford talks like he’s tough?
Are these things we’re taking seriously?
‘Cause, I sometimes take things like this seriously.”
bh,
That’s just your hall monitor-sense tingling. It’s kinda like spidey-sense only it’s calibrated to cut through the smell of the french fries at lunch.
I try to take everything seriously.
Like a good kraut should.
gnomes without homes
biscuits without baskets
titanic with ice
i think this is a stick-up note
but i’m not sure
can i use ur bathroom?
Sometimes my hall sense demands it, Danger.
An odd thing, I suppose.
I try to take everything seriously.
Like a good kraut should.
Picture, if you will, going to work every day and being paid to make fun of Germans. For a German client! Such was my life for almost two years until I got bored of it – well, except for the endless supply of free beer anyway. Good God man, you people are the most unintentionally comedic people on ze earth. Be proud.
the ministry of silly walks..
what- u want to argue?
fawlty towers
the german episode
too funny!
Good God man, you people are the most unintentionally comedic people on ze earth. Be proud.
Best German joke I ever read:
Joke night eh. This sent to me recently.
Four old retired guys are walking down a street in Yuma , Arizona …
They turned a corner and see a sign that says, ‘Old Timers Bar – ALL drinks 10 cents’.
They look at each other, and then go in, thinking this is too good to be true.
The old bartender says in a voice that carries across the room, “Come on in and let me pour one for you! What’ll it be, Gentlemen?”
There seemed to be a fully-stocked bar, so each of the men ordered a martini.
In short order, the bartender serves up four iced martinis…shaken, not stirred, and says, “That’ll be 10 cents each, please.”
The four men stare at the bartender for a moment. Then look at each other.
They can’t believe their good luck. They pay the 40 cents, finish their martinis, and order another round.
Again, four excellent martinis are produced with the bartender again saying,
“That’s 40 cents, please.”
They pay the 40 cents, but their curiosity is more than they can stand. They have each had two martinis and so far they have spent less than a dollar.
Finally one of the men says, “How can you afford to serve martinis as good as these for a dime a piece?”
“I’m a retired tailor from Phoenix ,” the bartender said, and I always wanted to own a bar. Last year I hit the Lottery jackpot for $125 million and decided to open this place. Every drink costs a dime…wine, liquor, beer,it’s all the same.”
“Wow!!!! That’s quite a story,” says one of the men.
The four of them sipped at their martinis and couldn’t help but notice seven other people at the end of the bar who didn’t have drinks in front of them, and hadn’t ordered anything the whole time they were there.
One man gestures at the seven at the end of the bar without drinks and asks the bartender, “What’s with them?”
The bartender says, “Oh, they’re all old retired people from Florida . They’re
waiting for Happy Hour when drinks are half price.”
That’s hilarious, Ernst. I used to have a German girlfriend and one night I had to play tour guide in the city to her and some stray German tourists that she and her friend had met. I commented that half the people in the crowded bar we were in were wearing glasses, which I found weird. Five minutes later, one of the German dudes quietly informed me that 44% of the people in the bar were in fact wearing glasses.

English majors have the weirdest anecdotes.
Was Bruce Springsteen there?
We actually did meet Steven Van Zandt in a bar the night before, ironically. Not that it helps me understand the question any better.
German dude was just trying to be helpful.
OT: looks like we’re going to have a football season after all. So bh, starting next month, I hate you’re cheddery guts, you rat bastard cheezheaded mofo!
At least until next January. Then we can be friends again.
Well, it wasn’t really that ironic, was it? As it was fairly obvious that members of the E street band were involved at some point.
I think you should be honest. Was Bruce Springsteen there?
(I also think the Zack Braff movie, Jersey as a parking lot, and how you people pronounce Trenton is sorta funny.)
That’s okay, it’s not that likely that we’ll bring it home twice in a row.
Unless Finley has a good season. Hey, who knows.
Heh.
Be careful, bh.
These are things I only know to say because a girl I dated in college was from Tren Ton, Abe.
She had very nice breasts. And she liked The Boss.
I grew up where they shot the TV show “Ed.” You know, they were going for heartland idyllic, only they wanted to be sure they could find extras who weren’t morbidly obese.
That’s okay, it’s not that likely that we’ll bring it home twice in a row.
I don’t care where the Packers finish, so long as it’s behind the Vikes.
I also imagine that somewhere between weeks 6 and 8, it’ll be hard to care anymore.
Heh.
If they wanted to, they could have done a Jersey version. But, really, how would the DP fit both the fat and the hair?
There’s a show about that on the air now, right?
This has always been a sore subject with me. You could say that New York/Hollywood media contrivances with regard to NJ had me wise to media bias long before I gave politics half a thought. You take an uber-rich, hyper-preppy town like Franklin Lakes and find the four mentally retarded Italian guidette housewives and Bam! you got a show. Or, grab some stupid Wops from New York, plop them in a cheesy low-rent place like Seaside Heights and you got yerself a Jersey Shore show. Lies, I tell ya.
Something to ponder while you’r trying to fall asleep: If the Corporation for Public Broadcasting belongs to you and me, like their TV ads say, why aren’t we recieving dividend checks? I don’t know about you, but I want to sell my share(s).
G’night all,
And btw I really will be in NYC in August so start making reservations people!

These are what we call good times.
Good times.
With the joking and such.
Hey, thanks pd and bh! Nice to read that after a long day. Sorry I haven’t been around much these past few months. Busy and all, but I’ll try to comment more often. I do read every day, though.
More Danger NYC! I hope the city is prepared. You should know that Jeff saw Jim Gaffigan, Doogie Howser and was indirectly skull fucked by Barack Obama while he was in town, so you have your work cut out for you this time.
You attract random lunatics.
Boycott Harry Potter. Take the kids to see Captain America twice.
