Episode 85 — David Letterman, Our Close Friend

[Andy Dick Cheney 3779]

Americans say "What's Up Dude"

 

Australians say "How's it going"

 

Irishes say "Howya"

 

Englanders say "alright guv'nor"

 

Germans say "Wie gehts"

 

Frenches say "Ooh La La Bonjour"

 

We're all so different but we've united to create something beautiful. We've deconstructed the decades old art form of the internet message board to fashion a new way of posting, We've all slammed the normal forum conventions on to the ground and given them a big 'ol kick in the balls and said "NO MORE".

 

We don't discriminate against race or colour or creed. We embrace all humanity has to offer whether they be the #1 Handsome Boy or a poster with a truly bad username. We are gender blind (except Chanson). We patiently wait for some popcorn even as it becomes more and more scarce. We even fuckin kinda tolerate SteveH!

 

In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in this history of mankind.

Mankind -- that word should have new meaning for all of us today.

We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.

We will be united in our common interests.

Perhaps its fate that today is the 30th of May, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution -- but from annihilation.

We're fighting for our right to live, to exist. To post funny stuff.

And should we win the day, the 30th of May will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:

"We will not go quietly into the night!

We will not vanish without a fight!

We're going to live on!

We're going to survive!"

Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!

Whatchu talkin bout, Willis?

[SteveH 11126]

You guys are mean and you smell

[SteveH 11126]

Hi guys, I hope this isn't annoying but I released a new EP today and wanted to share it with anyone who might be interested... it's super sincere synthpop and is not funny at all, but if you're into being emotional and shit take a listen: https://clotworthy.b....com/album/kind

 

sorry again for spam i love you bye

 

A Bear- I think 'unremarkable' is, in fact, remarkable. 'Bother' has a real Paul Simon thing going on and I like it. I also like that in some songs you're fucking shredding on guitar and it's unexpected bc its computers music. I'm a fan!

[Andy Dick Cheney 3779]

You guys are mean and you smell

 

soz Steve.

 

Please accept this by way of apology:

 

[SteveH 11126]

accepted!

[devscoots 2561]

Has everyone got the Social Experiment album for free of itunes? Pretty big big mistake in one guy's opinion. Just sayin is all. Just puttin it out there.

 

https://itunes.apple...urf/id998076113

 

 

 

EDIT: the mistake being NOT getting this album. I was not clear, I apologise.

[LydonBergin 420]

Chance the Rapper is never a mistake devscoots.

 

Edit, words.

 

Also, A Bear, I just listened to your music and I thought it was just swell. I'm not crying or anything.

[JMonsterface 1974]

Andy, that was really fucking beautiful. Wow.

[Shrek & Donkey Kong 4336]

drove out to santa ana (which basically makes california look like a fucking flyover state or some bullshit, 40+ miles from hollywood are you kidding me?) to see Neutral Milk Hotel last night. Third time seeing them since the reunion and I'd have to say it was the best live experience I've ever had (other than Hollywood Handbook live @ UCB sunset)

[Shrek & Donkey Kong 4336]

Chance the Rapper is never a mistake devscoots.

 

Edit, words.

 

Also, A Bear, I just listened to your music and I thought it was just swell. I'm not crying or anything.

 

 

Every track that Chance has put out since Acid Rap has been a mistake though

I saw them in Brooklyn last year and it was amazing. They opened with 'Oh, Comely'. I also drank a big beer at a german bar and ate a sausage so it was a great night.
