@achewood I haven't had a haircut since July. I'm hoping to, "wait it out."

Now, now - I don't come here to not understand the in-jokes. I come here to not understand the plain english. Tighten up, please.

Nah, it's ok, since I know for a fact you probably won't run off into a spotty discussion over how much of an asshole Derek Smart is say.<BR><BR>

But maybe we can discuss Darl McBride being an asshole, or maybe Gabe Newell eating his sauce leak.<BR>

</.F>

Only because I did actually try to use line breaks when I started this.


Umm, what?

Is this in Glaswegian? Slink, you burnin' a fattie?

Every time I see stuff like this on the internet, I assume "the emperor has no clothes" and I figure a person could just type any old goofy shit and someone would say "word".

You know, it's all ching chong wing wong.

I thought it was Potatoes and Charlie Chaplin, not Muffins and Abbott and Costello.


Quote from: "snpp"
Abe: Aw, feeling blue, eh? I got something that'll cheer you up.[puts forks in two potatoes and makes them dance]
Jackie: [wheezes laughter]
Lawyer: [approaching] Sir, I represent the estate of Charles Chaplin. I have a court order demanding an immediate halt to this unauthorized imitation. Boys? [two large men grab the potatoes and forks and stomp on them]


I'm guessing he had LN get it slightly wrong on purpose. I mean that was so crazy long ago how can LN be expected to keep track of ancient history like that?



LN's Abbot and Costello was a Who's on First reference in response to Ray's "That's a Who song."  LN got it right.

No. Just my complaint about slashdot types, and the fact that I can't switch between forum formatting methods easily.

Panel 4 is a very nice Benny & Joon reference.

After reading it again, I think my favorite part is Ray's construction in panel two: "Ain't no parent in this day got no kid named at ALL Baba O'Riley!" Like the amount that a person has a particular name is modifiable. I just really enjoy that idea.

i particularly like the pause while saying not to take any nickels, as if he were wondering if it were a trick question or not, but then finishing with gusto (!).

I've spent long enough on the Internet to be able to chuckle cocktail-party style at allusions such as this.  This both pleases and worries me.
