It's Great To Get Paid For What You're Already Doing

Posted by Hubris

Why not take shameful evidence of a post-1981 decline and turn it into a brand?

I can envision a whole line of similar reality-inspired products, including Dick Van Patten Cardboard Box Apartment Homes and Dick's Happy Leavin's® Leftover Vanilla Extract Mood Enhancer.

Super Thin Crust Pizza for Granny--Feed the old kook without unlocking the basement door!

Mistreatment of old people is the pinnacle of humor.

Um, I might be reading sarcasm where it's not intended...do you have a problem with the post?

Posted by: Hubris at December 1, 2005 12:29 PM

Fuck no. I forget you're not Bill and just assume you know we all appreciate the idea of old people eating cat food and shit.

Actually, after I posted that I decided calling other guys "homo" was actually the pinnacle, but Codger Friskies is right up there.

Obviously, I don't like old people.

It's actually not limited to the elderly. I have it on good authority that Willie Ames has been living off a bag of Iams Smart Puppy since early November.

Then again, Ames is how old, now? Sixty-three?

Willie must be doing pretty well if he can afford Iams. Being an extra on Lifetime Channel movies must be lucrative.

This seems like a brilliant idea to me. I doubt I'll take a taste, but when it comes to my area, I'm certainly going to get some for my pooch. Of course, if I was paid to try it, I'd try reuglar Alpo if they wanted.

Man, this mortgage is killing me.

I remember a few years back when he did TV ads extolling the virtue of "DuraShears"--basically a pair of scissors.

One of the flavors listed was "hobo chile".
I'm outraged!

Heathen! How dare you make fun of Bible Man!

Holy shit, I'd never seen that. I gotta find it on DVD.

Many years ago I was broke, hadn't eaten in 2 days or so, I had a quarter the dog hash can for a quarter was a lot bigger than the people has can for a quarter.

I had some spices at my flat, but I found out no matter how much spice you add dog food or at least that one still tastes like--- words cannot describe it adequately.

Posted by: Dan Kauffman at December 2, 2005 11:05 AM

Uh, yeah, dude, sounds like you had a quarter, all right...
