- Hell yeah! - Krusty Apr 29, 09:31 3
  - I'd fall over in 2 seconds, heh. Such an old man -- nm - CQ Apr 29, 09:34 2
    - I couldn't deal with all the falling anymore. When you're a kid, you don't think about getting hurt, you just do things and worry afterwards. - Krusty Apr 29, 09:41 1
      - *ding* -- nm - SyrDragon Apr 29, 09:51
Really, the only show I ever quote in real life is the Simpsons. - musubi Apr 29, 09:28 2

  - Everyone calls David that, it's not a Deadwood thing. - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:37
Today, HWDY runs what I'm pretty sure is the toughest quiz we've had which wasn't written by Diva. Movie Vanity Plates -- (link) - prayformojo Apr 29, 09:28 8
- 12....but can I request that the movie title be given in the answer too? I'm still not sure what some of the title are, even given the actor. (nm) - musubi Apr 29, 09:53 2

Boy, the last picture on the LOLSTRSS is...unfortunate. (the one w/meg's comment about the wind is also kinda zen) -- (link) - prayformojo Apr 29, 09:25 1
- Heh, really is how I felt with that thing looming over me. Znu's, further down, is great too :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Apr 29, 09:29
"First of all, glasses and mustache are the same person." - musubi Apr 29, 09:25

- Wonderful !! -- nm - MojaveMeg Apr 29, 09:26
- Awesome. Sounds like it could be a great experience. Take these opportunities now because they will be more difficult to come by and take later. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:26 3
  - your handle scares me -- nm - Hotkiss Apr 29, 09:28 2
    - Does this scare you? -- (link) - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:32 [hulu] 1

    - Understanding the protocol on how to act when Baby Got Back is played over there is key, for example -- nm - prayformojo Apr 29, 09:26
    - why start now? -- nm - mr. irrelevant Apr 29, 09:25

ST POll: What Cheers quotes do you still hear used (or use yourself)? -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:24 14
- "I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers." "Why else would she be there?" -- nm - JaxSean Apr 29, 09:37
- I use "Yelnick McWawa" as an alias once in awhile. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Apr 29, 09:37
- pretty weenie -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:30
- Dog eat dog world and I'm wearing Milk Bone underwear. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:29
- also the "booah" sound Sam makes when he first sees Kristie Alley -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:29
- It's a dog-eat-dog world and i'm wearing Milk Bone underwear -- nm - prayformojo Apr 29, 09:28
- Kelly kelly kelly kelly kelly kelly... -- nm - Callisto Apr 29, 09:27 1
  - woody was such an excellent addition to the cast. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 29, 09:35
- NORM! -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:27
- every once in awhile when the name "kelley" comes up someone will bust out the song... -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 29, 09:27
- ~/a groin in ju ry. a groin in ju ry/~ -- nm - Jim Apr 29, 09:26 1
  - I sing that when I hear a mention of the injury on Sportscenter or the news. -- nm - Krusty Apr 29, 09:33
- I can't hear Adriatic Sea or Albania with out singing ~Albania, Albania you border on the Adriatic~ -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:24 1
  - It's all I can do not to bust out in song everytime I see the country name. -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 29, 09:26
In addition to the many Emmy nominees Modern Family better get, Jane Lynch also deserves a nomination. -- nm - ty97 Apr 29, 09:24 1
- She deserves to *win*, no question about it. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Apr 29, 09:38
To even *think* of comparing MF's Phil to Friends' Ross is a nut-punch-worthy crime. - musubi Apr 29, 09:23 27
- Phil is obviously a more believable and grounded Michael Scott character. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:24 25
  - That's nearly as offensive as the Ross comparison. ugh. - musubi Apr 29, 09:27 15
    - You don't see Michael Scott in him at all? Especially the early episodes. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:28 14
      - I can see the thing about need to be liked in the pilot....but it is so un-ridiculous (a la Michael Scott) that I never felt any connection. (nm) - musubi Apr 29, 09:29 13
        
        (he's not like Michael Scott at all). -- nm - Callisto Apr 29, 09:36 11
        
        Someone needs to go back and especially watch the first three or four eps. They've toned it down, but I promise... - Name Withheld By Request Apr 29, 09:41 10
        
        I've watched them numerous times. I just disagree. - Callisto Apr 29, 09:43 7
        
        100% agreed. (nm) - musubi Apr 29, 09:48
        
        I agree that the level is different, but it's along the same continuum. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:46 5
        
        the "doing stuff that they think is cool but isn't really" continuum, yeah. - Callisto Apr 29, 09:47 4
        
        Submitted not as definitive proof, but as general evidence to the contrary..... -- (link) - Name Withheld By Request Apr 29, 09:48 2
        
        That's people trying to peg his character into a type. Phil is much closer to Bryan Cranston's dad on Malcolm than to Michael Scott, imo. (nm) - musubi Apr 29, 09:51 1
        
        Actually thinking about it, that doesn't really work either. - musubi Apr 29, 09:56
        
        (like using the word "cool" for example) - Callisto Apr 29, 09:47
        
        Ah-HA! -- nm - HdnAgnda Apr 29, 09:43
        
        All of that trying to be hip with the kids, "Why the face?," etc. is right out of the Michael Scott playbook. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:43
        
        Yeah, Phil's a gajillion times more real than Michael. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:30
  - So...not michael scott? -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:25 8
    - They took the absolute need to be liked from Michael Scott and toned it down to realistic levels and gave him more of a heart. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:27 7
      - But they ramped up the Michael in that episode about his birthday. - HdnAgnda Apr 29, 09:31 6
        
        I think he was kind of sweet on the birthday episode. - Callisto Apr 29, 09:34 3
        
        Exactly. It was set up perfectly by the prior revelation about Claire's anniversary "gift". He's so anti-michael scott. - musubi Apr 29, 09:36 2
        
        Either David or myself finds some little piece of ourself in him in every single episode. - Callisto Apr 29, 09:37 1
        
        My wife says I love him so much because he is me, with the wackiness turned up 10%. - musubi Apr 29, 09:39
        
        I refuse to acknowlege any connection between the characters outside of their gender and hair color. - musubi Apr 29, 09:33 1
        
        We'll just have to agree to disagree on this one. -- nm - HdnAgnda Apr 29, 09:42
- All they need to do is keep his writing at stellar levels and he'll never descend into punch him in the throat levels of annoying. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:24
