Ok, maybe I'm an idiot, but I think this is hysterical. Not sure why.

I'm not sure why you think it's hysterical either.

As I said, I may be an idiot.

Fair enough.

At least you didn't go all apeshit like this guy.

I guess I'm also part idiot. While I didn't find it hysterical, I thought it had that special *something.* It's just stupidly irritating enough to be amusing.

That cracked me up, but that movie quote is an injoke between me and my brother. Let's hope they add audio to the page.

Wanna lay bets on how long this post stays on the front page?

Maybe now is a good time to ask why that SNL-Sean Connery on Jeopardy thing is supposed to be even marginally funny?
posted by Kafkaesque at 1:00 PM on February 6, 2002


I think it's funny because someone cared enough to buy the URL and hunt down an audio clip for what is, in essence, a non-joke. Like the Andre the Giant Has a Posse meme, it's interesting because the intentions behind it aren't immediately apparent. It's not even clear if there is an intention.

Kafkaesque:

Fake Sean Connery: "I'll take The Rapist for $400."

Fake Alex Trebek: "That's Therapist, Mr. Connery..."

That's why.

Trebek: "This is the sound a dog makes.....Sean Connery."

Connery: "Moo."

Trebek: "No, you're wrong."

Connery: "Well, that's the sound your mother made last night, Tre-bek."

Trebeck: "Look, whatever; we would have accepted bow-wow or ruff."

Connery: "Ahhhh, rough, just the way your mother likes it."

One of my favorite SNL skits.
"Mr. Connery..."
"Trebek, we meet again."

Connery: "I'll take 'Anal Bum Cover' for $500."

Trebeck: "That's "An Album Cover," Mr. Connery."

Sean Connery: I've got to ask you about the Penis Mightier.

Alex Trebek: What? No. No, no, that is The Pen is Mightier.

Sean Connery: Gussy it up however you want, Trebek. What matters is does it work? Will it really mighty my penis, man?

Also:

Alex Trebek: This is the only month that starts with Feb. Mr. Connery?

Sean Connery: Febtober!
posted by swift at 1:32 PM on February 6, 2002


Alex Trebek: Mr. Connery, go ahead.

Sean Connery: The day is mine! I'll take Famous Titties for 400.

Alex Trebek: Titles, Famous Titles.

Sean Connery: Damn!

Alex Trebek: And the answer is: This movie title is taken from the name of the book "Gone With The Wind." Mr. Sean Connery.

Sean Connery: Dolly Parton!

Alex Trebek: Titles, Mr. Connery. Not titties.

Sean Connery: Not a fan of the ladies, are you Trebek?

While I'm not laughing so far at what's being presented in this thread, I did have a brief period where, when presented with the choice between human toll collector, and machine, I'd pick the human lane, toss my change, cheez-gun at the poor startled toll-lackey, and bellow "You're the man now, dog" as I drove off, so I do get the memeishness of the line.

I didn't actually get the joke of this page, but that 3D text is driven by some nutty CSS/javascript.

Yoo-hoo! Hey, people! YO! Yeah...uh, the guy with the word dong in his username isn't amused, so, um, could we step it up a notch? Thanks a bunch!

The thread is about submitting what lawtalkinguy thinks is funny to rest of us for our opinions, you hypersensitive dingus with a name even less amusing than my own.
posted by dong_resin at 2:36 PM on February 6, 2002


Wait, I don't think his name is supposed to dong resin.
I always thought it was Don Gresin.
posted by lawtalkinguy at 2:37 PM on February 6, 2002


Don G. Resin. The "G" is for "Giovanni".
posted by mr_crash_davis at 2:48 PM on February 6, 2002


No, it is in fact dong resin.
My mother came up with it one morning, cleaning up after work.
posted by dong_resin at 2:54 PM on February 6, 2002


It kept us fed, okay?
Don't judge me.

Sean Connery: I'll take "famous whore semen" for $400, Alex

Alex Trebek: That's Horsemen, Mr Connery.

Sean Connery: No, Trebek, I see it right there. Hooor -- like your mother -- semen. Hahahaha...."

You're right.

It's funnier when you guys type it.

ha. ha.

But I can't talk. I actually think SNL is funny again. Ye gods! Baaaaked Laaaays! It's two jokes!

It is a classic SNL bit, some of the funniest stuff they have ever done.

That web page is much funnier than SNL.

Semi-related: can someone point me to video clips of the clownpenis.fart skit, and any of the "Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer" bits? infomedia used to have them, but they've basically shut down...
posted by hincandenza at 9:04 PM on February 6, 2002


Aah..."Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer!" Such sweet memories of Phil. "I'm just a simple caveman...your modern machines frighten me!"

Trebek/Connery skits are priceless; my kids frequently taunt me with "What now, Trebek?!" in a mildly believable Connery-esque voice/accent.

The day is mine! I love this thread. Never heard the Whore Semen one before. Fabulous!
posted by evixir at 10:37 PM on February 6, 2002


Does anyone else, when they hear the phrase "go apeshit" immediately add, mentally (most of the time), "...and get a boner"?

I have no idea why my brain does these stupid things, over and over again.
