Robin Williams lurks DU? He used my idea on Stewart's Daily Show!
"Everyone areound him wears an 'I'm with stupid' tee shirt"

From 4-6 months ago:

I hadn't seen it used before this. I have seen copies.

1. Robin was good
I love how he barely promoted his movie at all, yet devoted 90% of his time on the Daily Show to rip on the President. "The Decider" t-shirt was hilarious, making fun of FEMA and Bush's response to Katrina. Pretty funny stuff.

2. He was great! The whole show was good tonight.
The Aussie "pole smoker" with the bush/bush comparison was a hoot.

Was this Williams, by any chance?

5. Yo, jdelullo! Welcome to DU! Robin Williams didn't
give two hoots about the movie, he got his digs in on CA's governor, immigration, and Il Dunce!

17. I just wished that he would let the true color of his hair show
I am sorry. We are not supposed to judge people on their appearance but on their behavior and spoken word but this bizarre red was really a distraction. Looked too much like Storm Thurmond.

18. The new hair color is for a film that he was just working on
not for his own ego at all. I don't remember the name of the new film, but I heard him mention it during a different appearance somewhere on tv recently.

3. Why not? Everyone steals from Bartcop.com!
Now I wouldn't mind if a few people stole from MY website, I could use the reflected glory.

6. How Robin Williams acquired that idea:
Edited on Thu Apr-27-06 10:54 PM by Boojatta
Robin Williams got it from Hillary Rodham Clinton
Hillary Clinton got it from Bill O'Reilly (at a party they both attended)
Bill O'Reilly got it from Paris Hilton
Paris Hilton got it from the NSA
The NSA got it from Warren Buffett

7. Don't feel bad
I sent several jokes to Air America's Keepin it real with Will (Durst) and Willie (Brown). If they read your joke, you are supposed to get an Air America t-shirt. Mine came today. Two sizes too small and, get this! Not made by North American wokers, not made by union labor, Hecho in Mexico! Fuck that! The station that makes its money by supposidly sticking up for workers rights in this counry is outsourceing their t-shirt business to Mexico! Fuck them. I am sending my t-shirt back! I don't want it.

23. FYI: Friday morning repeat of last night's "The Daily Show" in 15 minutes.
Comedy Central repeats the previous night's The Daily Show at 10:00 am EDT. That's about 15 minutes from now.

24. He may have been creative enough to come up with that one
by himself. BTW, you need to photoshop an "I'm With Stupid" with the finger pointing up on the Chimp.
