I'm so excited, Will Friedle is guest starring on Less Than Perfect tonight :woohoo:

Nice to meet ya:

I really wish I would have seen Ellen yesterday, they had this old woman that they called "Kitty" there, because there was a video last year where she had jumped when the music changed...and they kept doing this countdown to Kitty, and now Ellen says they will do an AK countdown, so the show today was AK1


Too bad that show is on 10, I only get the chance to watch it Fridays..so damn funny too

Wow I think God finally decided to give me a day off when it comes to MAJOR ISSUES. I had a great day compared to all but a few days since the beginning of school. And homecoming's tomorrow, so I'm in an even better mood!

god highschool traditions are ****ing lame

Less Than Perfect is an awesome show, and Will was great :D LTP always cracks me up, Andy Dick's character and the big guy(can't think of his name) are hilarious.

Well Kitty was on Thursday, so I missed it too...Ellen seems to think she is the greatest person of all time, so she must have been funny

You know, I was thinking on this today.
Bear with me.

I find this a little odd. Not that TJ chose to censor some words, but not this one, but because this is the case on television and in other censoring issues as well. One can say "bitch," but not something else. I'm simply using SO as an example for my sociological observation, so no one should take this as a gripe.

Anway, lets take the two words: "bitch", and "assh*le". One of them is censored, the other is not.
Now, while I, personally, tend to use both words freely, I can see more of a case for "bitch" to be censored than "assh*le." After all, for centuries, "bitch" has been used as literal verbal violence (and often used in conjunction with phyiscal violence or abuse) towards women. It is a derogatory term, literally lowering women to the level of dogs.
"Assh*le," as fat as I can tell, can only be seen as offensive to excretory orifices. Now, while I have yet to see any (literal) excretory orifices posting around here, it may possibly be that it's referring to said orifice (what are we, in 4th grade?). However, I can say "pee-pee head" (if I so chose, and I wouldn't), without fear of my message being altered, so perhaps it is simply a particular excretory orifice that makes it objectionable. However, "anus", which elicits even stronger images of aforementioned orifice, is not censored.

Anyone have an explanation for this?

You should PM TJ about this, Pirate. You make some very good points.

NO!!
Not bitch, I need bitch.... they took everything else away.
Because, if you do complain, they wont uncensor assh*le, they'll just censor bitch.

I didn't care for homeocming last year, I just liked beoing with my friends.

Anyway, yesterday's good day hasn't stuck with me. I just found out my great uncle has lung cancer. Figured. Every time there's some sort of school event, I get bad news. Like 2 years ago on the day of a dance my great grandfather died. Maybe I'm jinxed... oh well I guess I'll live.

She doesn't have to mention bitch. But we could start an ******* petition. I'm a fan of that word myself.

Everyone could put the phrase "Censorship is Obscene" in their sig and we could work from there

A while ago I found this German site for Frasier, which had loads of amazing pictures. Well now I found the Cheers one, but the gallery didn't live up to my expectations - especially the cast section: http://www.cheers-becker.de/index1.html.

Oh, and why the hell did they make a dual fanpage for Cheers AND Becker?? As if.

True. Though I'm having fun bitching about the DVD cover art.

does anybody else hate the ":rolleyes:" smiley??

My dream last night...Chambers and barwars, you were in this one briefly...


I went to this studio and was sitting at a table with Chambers and barwars. All of a sudden (this is like a waiting room, btw) Jane Leeves, David Hyde Pierce, Kelsey Grammer, Peri Gilpin and John Mahoney enter and take their seats... Jane is kidding around with David - and I'm sitting there thinking - "Where's my camera?" They were sitting there with their scripts - I leave my table and wonder towards the front of the room where I see execs drinking from glasses that say "Fox After Breakfast" (a show Fiona Hutchison used to co-host) - I ask if I could have a glass like that and they said, "There are no more left." So I get really sad and go back to my table. I kept watching the cast of "Frasier" in awe. Someone came up to me after the gathering was over and offered her mug to me. It was a "Moonlighting" mug with Cybil Sheperd and Bruce Willis on it - so for a laugh- I said, "Yes." Later I stayed at this hotel with a few other people including Beth (my friend) - Fiona Hutchison was there, too! I looked at my watch and it showed me exactly where Fiona Hutchison was. (It was night time) I went to her room and she was in bed ready to sleep - she was sharing a bed with a few others so I made myself comfortable - she said, "There's not enough room here for you. Go to your own room," but I wanted to stay there.... *sigh* I left.

That was about it... but it was nice to see the "Frasier" cast! Haha!

Its like Jerry Seinfeld says.... people giving the finger is no big deal, its not that hard.
But if somebody gives you the toe.... now thats hate.

This dream happened last week - the night of the hurricane!


I was inside this fan luncheon for "Frasier" - next to me sat David Lloyd, Jeff Greenberg, and Suzanne Martin (Frasier execs) I had with me my "Frasier Scripts" book. David leans over and asks, "Where did you find that?" and I replied, "I brought it from home. It has the best scripts from the show. There's another book that's green and tells about the cast and characters." They were impressed by my dedication. David Hyde Pierce came out and entertained the crowd with a monologue. My eyes were hooked on his... He was having a little trouble with his lines and I wanted to help him out. I looked at him and said, "I wish I had your script. I could help you with your lines." He reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a folded piece of paper. "Here. I want you to have this," he said, as he handed me the paper. I unfolded it - and it was his script. After his monologue, fans wanted his autograph. I looked beside me and DHP was there in David Lloyd's chair. He presented me with lots of "Frasier" memorablilia.

Nice dream.... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v34/TroyandLindseyFan/rose.gif

I remember back when anybody even mentioned Friends on these boards, youd be acted.

Friends is one of those rare shows that has been consistently funny every season. I like it a lot, although I'm not a fan of its "trendiness."

It's also very easy to notice the influences from Cheers and Seinfeld.

I never was interested in Seinfeld, but I have been taping the "Marla" episodes - Jane Leeves....it's a funny show.

I HATE its trendiness!! Current trends just date a sitcom when they're in syndication. And yeah... there are obvious Cheers and Seinfeld influences. But hey, being influenced by two very funny shows makes a pretty darn good sitcom!

But other than that.... Friends really has been consistently funny EVERY season... it's a good show.

Man...that Jack&Bobby is great...for a drama, of course. Anybody else here like it?

Actually, dramas this season have been better than sitcoms (besides Joey of course)

Last year I didnt watch really any dramas (aside from the casual Alias or Las Vegas.... but this year I really like Veronica Mars, Jack & Bobby, Desperate Housewives and Boston Legal. (James Spader is hilarious in that last one)

I haven't seen any of the other three. I wouldn't have watched J&B if it weren't for my roommate. But from what I've read about Desperate Housewives, I think I'd enjoy it.

It was very good. Very funny too. And that cliffhanger ending just made it all the more better (not the type of cliffhanger that would be resolved "next time", but the type that sets the tone for the entire series)

Sadly dramas and reality shows rule this year.

Damn it !

Aww, I'm sorry. My good (and close) friend died in a car accident in 1997:( It's hard...I think the whole "viewing" just smacks you in the face. I mean, this happened 2 days before the first day of her senior year.

I'm so sorry Dannie!

If it makes you feel any better my day wasn't too great either. We were doing this group worksheet in math class today and my group got frustrated with a problem so as a joke I wrote on my paper "Math Sucks!" My math teacher didn't find it at all funny and told showed it to my mom, who works at my high school. My mom didn't really care tho.
Still... people need to lighten up and have a sense of FRIGGIN humor!:mad:

You have to be subtle about it....
for example, in your case.... write very big.
and then at the end, add something like "I see you forgot your bifocals today so I wanted to make it easier on ya, happy 30th"

Same with me. Everyone was so upset that I couldn't help but be upset with them. It was crazy, and I have a feeling it's gonna be this way for awhile.

In geometry we had group tests, and he said we got three questions, and I raised my hand, he came over, and I said "what's the meaning of life?" and he said "A Monty Python Movie" and counted it as a question.

Another time I went back and said "I dont know how to do it" and he said "well ask your group" "they dont know how to do it either" "well your ****ed". God, what a great math teacher

My 3-D design class is starting to scare me. We have to start doing metal and wood working, and I'm afraid of the machines.
I tried some welding today. It's just like me to do something perfectly the first time and then mess up on every subsequent trial.

Let me just say I am not a racist! I am half Puerto Rican on my mother's side.







































With that said, when I was in the sixth grade, my Spanish teacher Mr. Bonilla use to make fun of my weight. I got so mad at him that I said without thinking, "You Spic!" Well the whole class heard me and he told me to go outside and he threw me against the wall and said, "You're lucky you're only twelve or I would kick your ass!" The next day, I was suspended for a week.

Hm, I've never heard of that term. What's its origin? That teacher really sounds like a jerk.


Talking about getting kicked out of class, I was in a very rowdy music class in lower school where the kids drove the teacher insane. I was always one of the good kids, though. But on the day the teacher got the principal to lecture us, I had a laughing fit because somebody had just told me a joke. So when the principal got there and saw me trying to suppress my laughter, he kicked me out of the room :(.

Spic is just a word for hispanic people...I havnt heard it recently, actually.

Lucky you. My friends happen to to be very into racial slurs. I'm not too thrilled about this. Many a lighthearted argument ends in "Well, that's cause you're a Jew." Or as an introduction..."This is Marcy. She's my Jew."
Now, I don't mind it, directed at me, but some of the terms are very...loaded. Very derogatory and hurtful. I wince whenever I hear any kind of slur.

I keep forgetting to get the book. I have watched parts of the movie, however. Which was odd as I'm used to seeing her in period movies. Somebody once said I resembled her, but I didn't take that as a compliment since she has a huge head. But I think the person was only talking about her Iberian features.

Calling "spic" a racial slur is perfect proof of how races don't actually exist. They're all arbitrarily and politically defined. Anybody who knows anything knows that the population of Spanish America is so diverse that it is impossible to lump them into one racial category. I have always thought of Hispanic as being a cultural term. But popular culture forces us to view members of the same cultural group as a separate race.

I honestly think I'm going to fail English this marking period. Its so boring that I cant process it.

Etymology. I suppose I just have to get used to the transition... this year I was put in the Quest language program which is completely different then the regular advanced class I was in last year. So I was sorta thrown into all this new material without preparation.

She does NOT have a huge head! She's so cool! And pretty! And yes, everyone is used to seeing her in Merchant/Ivory roles, that's why its so great to see her as a self-destructive junkie! Man. She's so cool. She and Tim Burton have a baby, I think. I know they're together...next door neighbors, I believe.
I remember being in London and walking through the University of London and finding a "Bonham Carter" hall, and being like "they named a whole hall after Helena?" But then I found out that she just came from a well respected aristocratic family...that her great great grandfather was the Prime Minister of England (H.H. Asquith). Isn't that cool? I think that's cool.

If I owned a college, I'd name a building after Helena. Hell. I'd name all the buildings after people I like, personally.

By the way, I know it sounds like I'm obsessed or something, it's just that my best friend has the hugest crush on Helena, and has made me watch ALL of her movies, so really, I'm not that weird.
I have enough obsessions to deal with.

Very sad, people. 24 hours have gone by and not a single post on this thread?? Well, until this one.

yeah, it definitely looks like the board has hit a lull.

this thread must be at the top....

But then Brian had to post on "welcome" after he posted here....you should know better, Brian.

I'm tired but I have lots of homework to get back to.

ditto, Ive been doing homework all afternoon.
.... and I still have more to do.

I think I'll watch some Cheers while I do it....

I should be doing work...and yet I'm not.

I finished up my homework, but watched the bonus disc from "Star Wars" instead.

I'm still stuck here reading about sex in religious paintings from the baroque era. If more people knew about the type of readings we do for art history, I'm sure the class size would triple.

Yeah. Well...ok, I like the X-Files too...but that's it.

And Chambers, I will see how squishy Apollo is when I get home.

AND, this should be of absolutely no interest to ANYONE but me, but I feel obligated to bore you all with it, anyway.

I was reading ahead in my Sex and Society textbook (Lives and Voices: Sources in European Women's History) and...there's a whole thing about Pirate Jenny! Ahh! And it has a picture of Lotte Lenya (Weill's wife, who performed many of his songs...sorta a pre-Bebe)...and DAMN she's pretty.

That's cool, Pirate Jenny.


I'm...tired....

Pirate Jenny, your bird is adorable! Maybe I should take pictures of my bird - a pretty yellow parakeet! We used to have two parakeets but one of my cats ate it last year and then died two weeks later...that was sad.

For those of you who don't know this, I had two cats that died last year - two weeks apart...the first one was a fluffy Russian Blue cat, who died from eatting our parakeet - and the other was a short haired white cat, who died from drinking out of the turtle bowl so much...

Mine died last Valentines Day. He had a tumor and he couldnt recover from an operation he had, so we were forced to put him to sleep. That was seriously the worst day of my life.. he was such an awesome cat.

I used to have 2 parakeets. A mating pair, a blue one named "Nokia" and an albino named "Starling."
I kind of lied, though, when I said they were a mating pair. I thought they were...then this May we found out they were both hens. Not that they didn't try...
Anyway, this summer, my house-sitter neglected to feed them, so they both died. Seriously, how ****ing hard is it to scoop a cup of seed and change the water? JESUS CHRIST!

Finally got my laptop ordered yesterday morning!


At any rate, I didnt know Pirate jenny was an actual historical/mythological figure....tell me stories about her :)

Originally posted by ThirteenInchEscape

No, she's neither historical nor mythological. She's simply a character in a Kurt Weill/Bertold Brecht song. (Please tell me you know Kurt Weill!). Jenny (AKA. "Low Dive Jenny" is a prostitute (big surprise...all of Weill's women were prostitutes, and most of them were named Jenny--hence the "Jenny" in Bebe's Here Lies Jenny), and in this song she verbalises her fantasy of a pirate ship appearing, of which she is the assumed leader, ransacks the town, and, under her command, kills everyone who has abused her (which, because this is Weill, is ****ing everyone in the town). It's...a revenge fantasy of sorts. There's another interpretation of the song, based on another of "The Threepenny Opera"'s characters, but, dude, that characters name is "Polly." And it's not Pirate ****ing Polly. And yes, Bebe has been Jenny in Threepenny.

I put the lyrics somewhere, but I'll put them here...its a great song, inspired the movie Dogville. Which i've already extolled somewhere else, so I'll spare you that.

You lads see me wash the glasses, wipe the floors,
Make the beds, I'm the best of servants.
You can kindly throw me pennies and I'll thank you very much.
When you see me ragged and tattered in this dirty **** hotel,
You don't know in hell who's talking,
You still don't know in hell who's talking.
Yet one fine day there will be roars from the harbour
And you'll ask, "What is all that screeching for ?"
And you'll see me smiling as I dunk the glasses
And you'll say, "What's she got to smile at for ?"
And the ship, eight sails shining,
Fifty-five cannons wide, Sir,
Waits there at the quay.

You say, "Work on, wipe the glasses, my girl."
And just slip me a dirty six-pence.
And your pennies will be taken, and your beds will be made,
(But I doubt if forty winks will come anybody's way)
And you still don't know in hell who's talking,
You still don't know in hell who's talking.
Still one fine day there'll be a loud bang from the harbour,
And you'll ask, "Jesus Christ, what was that bang ?"
And you'll see me standing right behind the window,
And you'll say, "Why has she got the evil eye ?"
And the ship, eight sails shining,
Fifty-five cannons wide, Sir,
Will be aimed at this town.

So then lads, it's time for tears, no more laughs at the bar,
For the walls will be at your ankles.
And look out, lads, the town will be flat as the ground,
This dirty **** hotel will be spared wrack and ruin
And you'll say, "Who is the fancy bitch lives there ?"
You'll say, "Who is the fancy bitch lives there ?"
There'll be rows of people running round the hotel
And you'll ask, "Why should they have spared this hovel ?"
And you'll see me in the morning leaving lightly
And you'll say, "That one, her , she lived there ?"
The same ship, eight sails shining,
Fifty-five cannons wide, Sir,
Flies crossbones and skull.

In the midday sun a hundred men will step ashore
All tramping where shadows crawled.
They'll lay their hands on men, hiding ****-scared behind doors
Lead them in chains here before this silent woman,
And they'll say, "Well, which ones shall we kill ?"
They'll say, "Which ones shall we kill ?"
Come the dot of twelve, it will be still in the harbour,
When they ask me, "Well, who is going to die ?"
And you'll hear me whispering, oh, so sweetly, "All of them!"
And as the soft heads fall, I'll say, "Hoopla!"
That same ship, eight sails shining,
Fifty-five cannons wide, Sir,
Disappears with me.



PS. I LOVE the word "hoopla." It's my favorite word of all time. Hoopla!

"Bar Wars III: Return of Tecumseh" is on right now, and Im actually watching Cheers in syndication for once.
Because this is by far the greatest episode of any TV show ever.

The greatest Normism....

Sam: Whatya up to Norm?

Norm: My ideal weight if I were 11 feet tall.

hahahahaha, one of the only things that has me laughing out loud every single time I watch it.

And, if memory serves me correctly, this also has my favorite Frasier/Lilith scene (are there Cheers transcripts anywhere??)

And the GET GARY, SHAVE SAMMY scene.... I could go on for hours about how funny this episode is.
everything about it is perfect.

I hardly remember it. I watched that one when I was little. I know - I'm missing out on the universe.

I remember that episode - I have it on tape somewhere.

No, we don't get it off, either, but I think here it's because we get "Nevada Day" off every year (around Oct 30ish), so, I think that's the reason.

I know, it wouldn't be fair. It's 100 times more original than all of your names put together.

And it's much more meaningful - taking into account the fact that it also refers to chamber, a physical room, reflecting the characters seclusion from the real world.

"barwars" is simply a mock off of "Star Wars" - "Moondance" on the other hand is the combining of Daphne "Moon" and Daphne teaching Niles to "dance" - then Niles ends up taking Daphne to the ball and they "dance" the tango together! :D

"barwars" is included in the name of several Cheers episodes.

Therefore -- I win.

Yes, Moondance. And "barwars" is a little too belligerent for my taste, while Brian Damage is wonderfully self-mocking. Hmm...I know who I'm voting for.

Yeah, that was random

Today I went to the outlet malls (which suck by the way).... but I found "Stay Tuned" a book about the 35 most important events in TV history.

They chose the episode "I'll Be Seeing You" as the most important (from Cheers)

I wouldn't pick that (I would say either the "I Do, Adieu", "Home Is The Sailor" or "One For The Road", but thats me)

Wow. Was that really an important event in TV history? Its not like they dont get back together. I'd definately say I Do, Adieu was more significant. Just because her leaving changed the whole dynamic of the show, and nobody knew if Cheers would stay sucessful after she left.

I checked out "Stay Tuned" from my public library. I don't get why they chose "I'll Be Seeing You" either, even though it is a pretty funny episode. The author chose other good eps for other series tho.

Unlike the show (which is character driven).... all my ideas are more plot driven.

I almost missed my PSATs. I slept in (which I never ever do) but managed to get there right on time.

How many times do guys plan on taking the SATs?

Oh yeah, I heard about that. Somebody told me it had something to do with making it fairer for girls who were doing poorly on math or some crap like that...anybody know what the reason is?

Did any of you people have a big discrepancy between your math and verbal skills? I've always liked language better, but my scores in both sections were exactly the same.

I've always done good in both (up until last year with math, but that was a problem with the teacher, Ive bounced back).... but prefered language, because, its actually useful.

I do have to say though, we never learned proper sentence structure in all my years of school.... but I thought it was the easiest part of the test, thanks to Cheers and Frasier.





Man on Radio: You know what I have a problem with?? Idiot pinheads like your self who like to rip apart people's sentences over some huge inferiority complex. That's what I have a problem with!!

Frasier: I think what he was trying to say was "that is something, with which he has a problem."

hahaha I love that line.
I can relate. I've learned a lot of vocabulary and syntax rules from watching Cheers and Frasier. I think it started with Diane's preposition thing.

About 30 of the questions were just preposition after preposition after preposition.


I owe my grade to Diane, Frasier, Lilith and Niles.

English teachers should make their students watch Cheers and Frasier in class. They'd learn so much faster.


Sam: I'll have you know I wrote pretty good in high school.
Diane: You didn't write pretty good. You wrote pretty well.


Sam: Hey Diane, you're a g- well writer...

I took the PSATs last year. (just an early practice)

I did okay. Im planning on taking them again soon.

Speaking of English teachers, my current one told us her niece was on Seinfeld as Elaine's roommate.... I have to go look into that.
