Who Will Speak For the Trees? Dave Will Speak for the Trees . . .

On this week's episode of The Test, not only do I speak for the trees, but I also speak for the birds and the salmon and the people who don't like to get their hands damp so they can't do the dishes. In other words, I read seven excerpts from famous literary works about nature, and-- despite their initial complaints-- the ladies do fairly well identifying what's what.

Not only that, but Stacey invents a new slogan for Trump, and Norman is fondly remembered.

Give it a shot and see how you fare.

what's the opposite of tree-hugger? 'cause it seems that's what the gheorghies are.

A lumberjack?

rob said...

we're all lumberjacks, and we're okay

TR said...

I'm less of a lumberjack after shaving my jihad beard, but I'm a gassy lumberjack. And that's not playing well on my Acela train to Boston. A lot of folks around me are unwillingly basking in the ambience. But I don't feel bad about the guy next to me. He has his phone set up to make that annoying bubble sound every time there's an email/text/alert. Bush league stuff. So he gets the Gas Face.

i had to hold some serious gas inside my intestines period 9/10 today. nobody appreciates the sacrifices teachers make.

zman said...

I fart in my office all day long and every time I do someone walks in right after I cut loose. It's really endearing.

Dave said...

can't wait for the obft . . . outer banks farting trip

rob said...

al fresco farting is the best kind of farting. or the worst, depending on your perspective.

zman said...

Sextuple bogey sounds like a fun and dirty activity until you watch it, then it's painful.

Dave said...

farting in the hammock is the best, the stink is out to sea in no time

TR said...

People say he's washed up, but Teixeira is on track for 108 HRs!

TR said...

Shane Lowry is my new favorite golfer. Hard to hate a fat Irishman.

Mark said...

So I should get fat and then TR will like me?

Mark said...

I know most are excited about the Masters but being the niche sports dork I am, I'm far more excited about Florida's spring game and the Nike Hoop Summit.

Shlara said...

Um, Tyler Summitt?

rob said...

apparently knocking up a player is bad form. live and learn, i guess.

Mark said...

That story is, well, completely fucking awful.

zman said...

I finally listened to this test. Where are Gould, Wilson, Diamond and Quammen?

Dave said...

those are perfect for the next one . . . thanks zman! the ladies are never going to get those and they are four of my favorites. maybe i can make the quiz in a different way so they don't have to guess the writers for them
