Lumpkins, Merkins, and Dirty Sanchez...Oh My!

This post comes about for a few reasons. A couple of weekends ago, I was first introduced to a new website. It's the type of website you can spend hours searching and you'll probably just keep laughing and laughing. So do me a favor. Go to Urban Dictionary and do a search for lumpkin. Funny.

Then just last night, I was watching The 40-Year-Old Virgin. Funny movie. If you haven't watched it, I recommend it. For those of you that have seen it, think back for a moment when the old arab guy (or whatever he is) was talking to Steve Carrell about love. "It's not about these rusty trombones, these dirty sanchez, these Cinncinnati bowties, these...". You get the idea. Well, a couple of them I had no idea about. So I looked them up. Again...funny.

So go out and find a good one and post it in the comments for everyone to enjoy. I'll start you out with another...Roman War Helmet. And if you've looked up lumpkin, take a look at this guy messing with his grandmother. Kinda mean, but pretty damn funny if you know what a lumpkin is!

Monday Movie Quote #56

Long day yesterday. Late night tonight. Where did this one come from? Who knows...but let's go with it.

"Just put your pickle on everybody's plate college boy, and leave the hard stuff to me."

Last Week: Braveheart. "It's all for nothing if you don't have freedom."

Best Jew Player Since Sandy Kofax

I must confess that my reason for posting my latest movie quote wasn't just because Mel Gibson has been in the news a lot lately. It's also because of this little diddy.

Behold, Dennis Leary and Lenny Clarke of Rescue Me fame. They invaded the NESN booth in Fenway Park during a recent Red Sox game. Listen closely to announcers Jerry Remy and Don Orsillo...they can hardly breathe because they're laughing so hard. Watch and enjoy one of the funniest things I've seen in a while.

Monday Movie Quote #55

Why did I decide to use this quote? For no other reason than because he's been in the news quite a bit lately. Let's see if you can figure it out with that little hint.

"I came home to raise crops, and, God willing, a family. If I can live in peace, I will."

Last Week: Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story. "C'mon Kate. It's time to put your mouth where our balls are."

Monday Movie Quote #54

The only reason I'm using this one is because we just saw it. It is a funny movie, and there are plenty of memorable quotes, so I guess it works. Here ya go...

"It's time to separate the wheat from the chaffe, the men from the boys, the akwardly feminine from the possibly Canadian."

Last Week: The Princess Bride. I know the quote was used in the comments, but this is funny...

Monday Movie Quote #53

Starting off year 2 of quotes with a great one. This one is full of excellent quotes, so lets hear it people! Sound off!

"While your at it, why don't you just give me a nice paper cut and pour lemon juice on it?"

Last Week: Napoleon Dynamite. "Tina you fat lard! Come get some dinner!"

Happy Birthday MTV!

On August 1st, MTV turned 25. It went by relatively unnoticed. Maybe it's because MTV has pretty much taken the M out of their name. After they created Real World and all of those other crappy shows, the video got left behind. Don't get me wrong...Beavis and Butthead was funny, Pimp My Ride is one of my guilty pleasures, and who can forget Ken Ober on Remote Control, but MTV's also responsible for giving Tom Green a career and that's just unforgivable.

When MTV was still playing videos, I used to watch it all the time. I used to leave it on just like a radio. Not anymore. But it's nice to go back and visit MTV as it once was. I was poking around their website and found that MTV hasn't completely forgotten their roots. Even though they decided to broadcast their full first day on VH1 Classic (can't waste precious airtime when kids need to see another Real World/Road Rules Challenge), you can find the first hour of broadcast (including some retro commercials) in streaming video. Remember the countdown and the rocket blasting off? Yeah, it's all there. If you want to relive a little of 1981, I highly recommend it.

Alan Hunter, Martha Quinn, Nina Blackwood, JJ Jackson, Mark Goodman...we hardly knew ye.
