Random appreciation thread...

[reyd reid reed]

here's the deal. When you post, you should do your very best to say something positive about the person who posted immediately before you.

And not positively snarky.

(yeah, I'm in a bizarre mood tonight)

:shrug:

[mcctatas]

39. who the fuck is pat paulsen?

am I showing my dearth of cultural capital again? :shrug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

40. Nah, not really

He was a writer and performer on the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour and ran for president — as a parody, of course — for the first time in 1968, or 14 years before you were born. :)

Wiki tells it better'n I can:


The comedian was approached by the Smothers Brothers with the idea of running for President in 1968. His reply, he was later to recount, was: "Why not? I can't dance — besides, the job has a good pension plan and I'll get a lot of money when I retire."

Paulsen's campaign that year, and in succeeding years, was grounded in comedy, while not bereft of serious commentary. He ran the supposed campaigns using obvious lies, double talk, and tongue-in-cheek attacks on the major candidates, and responded to all criticism with his catch phrase "Picky, picky, picky".* His campaign slogan was "Just a common, ordinary, simple savior of America's destiny."

*Emphasis added.

[mcctatas]

41. Yeah...

a little before my time, but I remember watching SNL when Belushi was still on it with my parents, does that count?

[Oeditpus Rex]

42. You could see the teevee from there?

Womb with a view? :shrug:

[mcctatas]

43. No silly...

[Oeditpus Rex]

47. Ain't got no beer

But I bought a big bag o' M&Ms today. :9

[mcctatas]

48. peanut or plain?

that is the critical question;0

[Oeditpus Rex]

49. Plain

Which is a damning misnomer. Chocolate is never "plain."

[mcctatas]

50. Well you have redeemed yourself completely than...

peanut m&m's are an abomination..
