There is only one film that is worthy of my complete and total admiration and that is CHOPPER. Without a doubt the funniest, scariest, most believale and entertaining, re-watchable film ever made. EVERYONE should watch this film at least 5 times.

I do have some friends who swap manly stories at the local Waffle House, framstedt... although it's usually over some kind of egg-white low-fat decaf-tofu cholesterol-absolved lactose-stupified concoction. Me, I go for the tallstack, extra butter and syrup, side of bacon, sausage, ham, steak and potato wedges. I'll pass on that sprig of parsley ma'am. I'll have my eggs sunny-side-up with the yolk and go easy on the hate-my-shitty-job-working-for-lousy-tips look, not big on sour puss in my java. Oh yeah, before you go... I want some toast too. No toast? Okay... get me a grilled ham and cheese superdeluxe sandwich instead. Now, when you come back, forget to bring the cheese and stick the ham between your knees and just give me the friggin' toast... not so hard now is it. Ah yes, ice water in the crotch... fuck you very much and have a great day... [cue manly singer voice] "By... Men-non"... Wink

I want to ammend my previous list, and add #10:

10. Singles

There's two Cameron Crowe movies in there, but I don't care. It also makes 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, and 10 my top six soundtracks.

LOL - I feel like a character in "High Fidelity" all of a sudden. Oh, shit. That should be on the list, too. That's my number eleven.

And "Showgirls" is my number twelve. Just because Miss Thang and I went to the same high school and had the same teachers and shit. Smile Big Thanks for reminding me, 13.5 inch XChuck!

Willtupper, I've been told that I remind people of Liz from High Fidelity a lot. Fairly nice, but quick to jump to conclusions, I suppose. And then, in real life, she's Rob/John Cusack's sister! But in the movie, they are friends but they are far more suited for each other than Rob and what's-her-face (Laura?) Just like us! Holy crap!

Whoa!

Look Your Janeness, you turned me into Joey Lawrence!

Whoa!

You're propbably too young to get this joke. That makes me feel really teh old!

Whoa!

(see: Joey Lawrence played teh character "Joey," on teh TV show, "Teh Blossom." His catch-phrase was, "Whoa!" And it was super dopey in a kind-of-cool way).

Teh Love! Whoa! Smile Big

I started saying "whoa" a lot the other day on msn, and someone told me I sounded like Keanu Reeves. Tongue Not cool, man.

Wait--was Joey on 'Boy Meets World'? Cause that show was teh gay. In the cool way.

Maybe he was on "Boy Meets World," but I don't think so.

I think that was Teh Fred Savage. He was on that show with teh Winnie Cooper. And that Beatles song done by Teh Joe Cocker or someone.

This was my 2001st post. I feel so futuristic now. Smile Big

I was bummed that I totally missed out on your 1984 post, that being teh magical year I was born. My posts are somewhere in the Renissance right now, which is cool.

What about teh Beatles now? And Joe Cocker?

1984 was a great year, my dear. It was the year the Detroit Tigers won the World Series in Game 7, with Kirk Gibson hitting a homerun in the ninth inning.

It's also the first crystal clear memory I have of my Dad. I was seven.

Also: on teh show Teh Wonder Years, teh opening credits were (I think) "With a Little Help From My Friends" (shoot me if that's not the title - my Beatles songbook is at Mom's), as performed by Joe Cocker (not teh Beatles).

1984... Regan was reelected that year. And that wasn't that good. But the Tigers won the World Series! Woo!

I think you mean w00t, darling. Not woo.

Just for fun.

And I didn't know that about teh Joe Cocker. The reason that they couldn't use the Beatles version was that most beatles songs are owned by either Yoko Ono or Michael 'teh child molester' Jackson. Both of whom want outrageous sums of money for the great works of Lennon/McCartney.

Just to clarify a few things for no reason other than that I'm semi-anal about them, neither Joey Lawrence nor Fred Savage was on Boy Meets World. I believe Fred Savage played a small role in a couple episodes, but that's all. It was his little brother Ben Savage, I believe, that played the starring role of Corey Matthews.

Honorable mention: Meet Joe Black. (Come on, it's an epic about death coming to take away an old guy, but falling in love instead.

I can't find a single word in that description that doesn't equal good movie.)

I lessthanthree how you lessthanthree me for knowing useless pop culture stuff. And I must say, I lessthanthree you for that SNL reference. Holy crap, I remember watching that episode and laughing my ass off at that particular skit. It was actually a running joke between me and a friend of mine. Everything was "Those aren't [fill in the blank], Mr. Ruso. Those are balloons! For a party!" With the lisp of course. What a great one. And the music video that was either supposed to act as a commercial for that "episode" of Blossom or was after it, with Mike Meyers doing Joey singing his first single, "Whoa, girls." So damn funny. It was him just dancing awkwardly for a minute or so to a beat and then yelling randomly, "Whoa! Whoa, girls! Whoa!" Classic SNL. Crazy thing is, I caught the beginning of this episode yesterday as I was catching lunch in a cafeteria across campus. Didn't actually get to see the skit, but oh well. Still brought back the memories. That, if I'm not mistaken, was the same episode where Farley, Spade, and Sandler were dressed up like those Mall chicks sitting around eating fries, Farley's just munching away when someone makes a comment about "Geez, aren't you supposed to be on a diet or something?" Farley's reply in a monstrous voice, "LAY OFF ME, I'M STARVING!!!" Awkward silence and wide eyes. Farley giggles, "Diet starts tomorrow!" My roommate probably thinks I'm going crazy because of all the laughing I'm doing right now.

We were supposed to have Jim Breuer and Dave Chapelle come to my school to do a stand-up act this last week, but we couldn't get enough money for Chapelle to commit thanks to his growing popularity and then my school's just stupid and decides that zero hilarious comedians is better than one, so it was a no go for the whole thing.
P.S. It's all clean.

that is so unfortunate, because that was an awesome tour. i had seen breuer's act before, but he was still funny as hell, and dave chapelle is just a funny, funny man.

have you seen/heard breuer's tequilla bit?
