I'm picking out a thermos, for you!

Not an ordinary thermos, for you!




So I've had this friend staying with me for a couple of days and we got into this conversation yesterday (started by the fact that Mr Keen has told me what he really really wants for Christmas is a nice thermos, he's a real wild man my hubby but anyway I digress) and it turns out she's never, ever seen The Jerk. Now she's not much younger than I am, so I couldn't figure out how this could be, but so we stopped on the way home and rented it and you know what?

It is still one fucking hilarious movie.

If you've never seen it, or haven't seen it for a long time (as I hadn't), consider picking it up sometime over the liesurely holiday TV watching season. An hour and a half of pure silliness, from when Steve Martin was at the top of his game.

I may be able to send more money next week, as I may have some extra work. My girlfriend Patty has promised me a blow job.

Does Patty make house calls?

Redwave was born a poor black child.

Although that's a racist thing to say.

I didn't wanna get spit on me.

"Gosh! You have my last name tattooed right there under the j's! First I get my name in the phone book and now I'm on your ass! You know, I bet more people see that than the phone book."

See a doctor and get rid of it.
