Don’t forget the fact that despite it’s just a cheeseburger, it’s named “The Vonderbilt Wonder”, “Halfsie Pattsies”, or “Edmonton the Second”. Ideally on a menu so scant on details it’s hard to tell the french fries from the extra avocado.
Reminds me of that one joke from What Men Think About.
“In our restaurant, dry bread is called a crouton. It is still the same piece of slightly fried bread, but dry bread cannot cost 8 dollars, whereas a crouton can.”
I read it as a helpful cue to shore up the small discordant point in the relationship, with saltine goodness and a little brainstorming on ways to improve the crackerage. Couples who cracker together, something something.
She calls me a weirdo but she still brings me crackers and peanut butter or she makes me “cracker stew” (which is soup fully saturated with crackers) when I’m sick.
We’re good, but next time she bugs me for it I’ll repeat the message
Hopefully MSNBC, NYT, WaPo, NBC, PBS, CNN, Sky News will blast this for months and months. This needs to be repeatedly used for propaganda to brainwash stupid magas. It’s for their own good. We need to protect them from dangerous Trump.
For those who don't understand the language: This is the parody of an officially sponsored training/education film. The speaker is a well-known voice for a series of traffic safety videos that were shown weekly on TV in the 70s. It starts with the ceremony of handing out the forklift operator certificates, and then follows one of those nwly minted forklift operators, describing things one should not do around or with forklifts.
You start out in 1954 by saying, “n*****, . n*****, n*****” By 1968 you can’t say “ n*****”—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract. Now, you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.… “We want to cut this,” is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than “ n*****.”
I’ve looked around, but can’t find a gif or video of the particular scene, but all I can think of is Ben Wyatt winning a plain blue t shirt and saying “WOAH! It’s so blue!”
