In these, the most holy and wondrous of times, the G:TB team wishes you and yours a joyous and extremely ridiculous holiday season.
Today, in our 1,000th post, we return to our annual tradition, bringing the world the Twelve Days of Gheorghe-mas:
On the first day of Gheorghe-mas
Big Gheorghe gave to me
A fat guy in a jer-sey
liberty is just kicking the shit out of the caa. gracious.
ReplyDeleteI look like Hot Plate Williams in that photo. Good god.
ReplyDeletewell, in your defense, low-angle camera shots are not slimming. and you're fat.
ReplyDeleteYou've always been more of a Paul Mokeski than a Hot Plate Williams to me.
ReplyDeleteBilly Curley maybe?

ReplyDeleteedited because whitney's a homophobe.
ReplyDeleteI never realized how freakishly small TJ's head is in relation to the rest of his body.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, why the additional spacing?
ReplyDeletebecause whitney's a homophobe.
ReplyDeleteand blogger sucks. can we move this freaking thing already? and where's the podcast?
not to get off on a rant here, but that scumbag saxby chambliss is gonna win today. white people are stupid.
ReplyDeleteAnd where are the curtains? Who is the House/Blog Manager?
ReplyDeleteIt's not being a homophobe to say, "Don't be so flamboyantly gay, Rob."
ReplyDeleteOh, wait. Maybe that is. My bad.
Does anybody else remember that Bill Raftery used to call Curley the "Irish Lunchbucket"?
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to start calling TJ that. And Rob, don't call TJ fat, or out of shape for that matter. Greg did a few weeks ago and TJ still hasn't recovered.
I did enjoy Mark selling Greg out and forwarding me that email though. Good to see profiteering still occurring.
ReplyDeleteredd foxx coincidence was just that, whitney.
ReplyDeleteTJ does have a really small head in proportion to his body (or perhaps it's foreshortening.)
You know what they say:
small head=small brain.
So I guess TJ's small head makes him White Beetlejuice? The nickname also works because he's wearing a Juice jersey.
ReplyDeleteSo the circle is complete. At least for White Beetlejuice.
What, exactly, would you say makes Saxby a scumbag?
ReplyDeleteI gave him that jersey.
ReplyDeleteFor example, if you had said the same about Norm Coleman I would have quietly been on my way...
ReplyDeleteAnd Jerry...and...
ReplyDeleteAnd GREG noticed that THE NAME on the back was SPELLED INCORRECTLY
ReplyDeletesaxby's campaign against max cleland was one of the more repugnant in a long list of repugnant rovian gambits. that's my beef with saxby. also, his name is saxby. that's nearly as bad as whitney.
ReplyDeleteOther Whitneys and I rag the hell out of people named Saxby! Yeah!!
ReplyDeleteEvery time I read Saxby I think of Zaxby's (eerily similar to Guthrie's in their locations, chicken and sauce), and I get hungry. And I'm not even stoned...yet.
ReplyDeleteRELAX GUY
ReplyDeleteSaxby's Wikipedia page:
ReplyDelete"Chambliss ran for the Senate in 2002, defeating the Democratic incumbent, Max Cleland, a decorated Vietnam veteran and triple amputee.
Chambliss focused on the issue of national defense and homeland security during his campaign, and released an attack ad that included Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein, highlighted Cleland's record on the issues of war and terrorism. Cleland was one of the senators who had blocked the passage of the homeland security bill by voting against the bill.
Chambliss received criticism from Democrats and Republicans for this ad, pointing out that he, who hadn't served in the Vietnam War due to receiving military deferments, had attacked a Vietnam War veteran who lost three limbs during his service for not being tough enough on issues of war and homeland security. Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona said of one ad, "It's worse than disgraceful, it's reprehensible;" Senator Chuck Hagel of Nebraska said the ads were "beyond offensive to me."
Despite this controversy Chambliss won the election, receiving 53 percent of the votes to Cleland's 46 percent."
I guess that's what Rob was referring to with "white people are stupid"?
And Dave, you're being removed from the G:TB letterhead.
ReplyDeleteScenes from Teejay's past...
ReplyDeleteKid in Bank: Hey, Mom! It's the guy who robbed the bank.
Tommy: I didn't rob any bank.
Kid in Bank: Oh, yeah, right. Like it was some other real fat guy with a tiny head.
Tommy: I got a tiny head?
I have the shoulder/head combo of the guy from the waiting room scene in Beetle Juice. If that's what Rhymo was referencing, he's spot on.
ReplyDeleteLet's be honest, discovering that a guy with a double major in Chemistry and Economics spelled OJ's last name wrong on a replica jersey had to be one of the funniest moments in my life.
ReplyDeleteEconomics? Or Finance? Doesn't matter I guess...still funny.
ReplyDeleteI hope the Rhymenocerous takes heed of this before his next trip to Uganda:

I suck.

My Beetlejuice reference was to the frequent guest on Howard Stern. He's a little African-American guy with an abnormally small head for his body. He stands under 5' tall, yet he smokes butts and drinks. And he HATED Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf (God rest his soul). The two of them used to fight all the time when they were on together.
ReplyDeleteOne more thing - you can rent the real Beetlejuice for your function. He will attend your bachelor party for a small fee. Not a joke.
Here's a youtube clip of TJ's alter ego. I'm sure they would get along well together:

Pretty sure I said this before but, here goes:
ReplyDeleteI stayed at a Residence Inn in downtown Cleveland one summer while I was interning with Octagon. One weekend, there was a pimp's convention in town and many of the the pimps were staying at the RI. Unaware of this, I came home drunk one Saturday night and ended up meeting both Don Magic Juan and Beetlejuice (separately). Beetlejuice is frightening in person and could barely walk when I ran into him.
Oh wow! this guy must be santa clause! Merry Christmas Santa! Amanda Vanderpool
