"They are net takers not net contributers."

3 minutes and 30 seconds of pure awesome slam dunkedness.

My favorite part is the guy asks what would you say to two opponents and he answered he wouldn't bother with the first because the first doesn't care to listen.

And I think this video shows why it's a good idea for professors and professorial types to consider cutting their hair. Unkempt hair suggests wackiness while tightly controlled cuts denote having it together. Signaling discipline and confers gravitas even when it is undeserved. Wild hair is a serious and unfortunate and unnecessary distraction.

C'mon, let me cut your hair. Be a sport. I'll do a good Job. I now got this Flowbee I wanna try. This'll be great.

I think it's a hat-wig. you cannot say such things in broad daylight without fear of retribution. Left wing Canadian style retribution ain't pretty.

Damn son, you should have taken the mic out of the interviewers hand and dropped it. BAM!!! That was a fantastic dissertation on the actual issue of who is, who isn't, what is, what isn't a viable contributor to not only Canadian citizens, but to the industry at large globally. I've said this before, petroleum isn't a single use product, the economy is driven by two things that allow those protestards to do what they do and they come out of the ground and start with the letter O; Oil and Ore. Without these two things, you could not enjoy the lifestyle you have, the way of life you have, and the standards of living you have now.

Good on this guy times a million.

That's not hair, it's ear muffs.

Muffs made of hair from the yeti.

Don't judge a book by its ear muffs! That guy's whip smart.

Intelligent, eloquent, reasoned, strong work ethic and tolerant. I am a gambler. I would bet most of the protesters have few, if any of those qualities.

WTF is Chip's problem?? Pretty fucking shallow and stupid to rant about the guys hair. Distracting is that STUPID fucking Groundhog Day post. Paging through it is even worse than reading a vapid comment about someones hair.

Wicket smart.. as they say in Mass.

ricpic said...

I lived in Vermont for a decade and I can tell you that the natives used "wicked" as in wicked smart or wicked cold or wicked hot or wicked good constantly. Not an affectation at all, a natural part of speech up there.

ndspinelli said...

Adam Sandler would play a character on SNL that used "wicked" all the time. Growing up in NH, he had the usage down pat.

frowny bald guys can get happy with a hair-hat.

spinelli - I think it was Jimmy Fallon who nailed the Boston accent in the sketches where he and his friend would videotape their drunken party encounters ("Oh my gaad, PLEASE TELL ME YOU GOT THAT ON TAPE").

You can tell the guy isn't a product of the U.S. public school system. Too logical, well-spoken and hasn't learned how to, like, use "like".

This guy time traveled in from 1978 to drop some wisdom on our Idiocracy. Thanks frizzy-haired time-traveling vastly intellectually-superior dude. We will now continue to water the crops with diet coke.

Three and half minutes without a single umm or aaa in there. No misspoken words or dead ends. I can't even write that well with editing. Why do we only get people like THIS to lead us.?

Amartel said...

Eh. Most of these are on Fox and he's just making a noise to drown out the questioner so he can go back to answering his own question (filibustering and lying). The town hall event one is pure comedy gold but everyone has their brain fart moments. If it was Bush or any other Republican it would have been incorporated into the ever expanding Legend of the Bushitler. But it's Obama so crickets.

ndspinelli said...

Amartel, Fallon did indeed nail the "wicked" phrase in his character w/ Rachel Draetsch, who also nailed it. But, before Fallon, Sandler did a character using "wicked" and "awesome." He did this one skit about different routes to take in New England and it was dead on pee your pants funny. He was arguing w/ other people about the best way to get from one spot to another. I seem to remember Glenn Close being in the skit and nailing it as well. I think he worked in Dunkin' Donuts.

Sounds like the "Bert and I" record where Bert and I are Mainers who confuse and irritate tourists asking for directions and end up telling them you can't get thayah from heeyah.
