DIS Dads The DIS Dad's Club V - Man's Room

It's starting to look like Captain Oblivious' TR has moved into the DIS Dad's thread.

I'll give you some hints. The rubber hose one was said by a character named Vinny and the actor is/was a major A-list superstar. The Elizabeth one was said by an actor who was originally famous for stand-up comedy.

More hints to follow if necessary, but I have a feeling that as soon as certain dads see this, they'll get it.

Please see the post at the top of the page

They would be Welcome Back Kotter for the 2nd one and Sanford and Son for the last one.

Thanks for the help. Now that you mention the Rubber Hose is from Welcome Back Kotter, that does sound familiar but I'll admit that I was never into Sandford and Son so that explains why I didn't know that one.

My wasted youth in front of the tv finally paid off. On the way home from work I was listening to the sports talk radio station and the host got way off track. He decided that his trivia theme for the day would be famous tv quotes. As soon as I heard that I started dialing. You had to get three in a row to win the prize pack. I actually got through and they put me on hold as I listened to moron after moron get such easy quotes wrong. But I never got my chance at stardom because they had to clear the phone lines since the segment was running too long. I stopped to get my hair cut and 20 minutes later I'm in the car again. Lo and behold, they're still trying to give the tickets away! As the host was about to get off the air, he says, "OK, if someone can tell me which tv show had the line "who loves ya, baby?", you'll win. I get through again! The phone rings, and rings, and rings. Finally, a voice says "What's your answer?". "KOJAK!!", I say. Yes! We have a winner! So the wife and I get two movie passes and I get a dozen bagels from some place I never heard of. I've worked at my current job for 7 years and have always been the guy to eat bagels but never to bring bagels. Now I get to bring them. Pretty exciting stuff. I haven't won anything on the radio since Huey Lewis tickets in 1987.

Some of the quotes people got wrong were:
Good night, Gracie.
Up your nose with a rubber hose.
I love it when a plan comes together.
Oh, Elizabeth. This is the big one.

my wasted youth in front of the tv. congrats!!! i had no idea were that one came from. ive never tried to call into a radio station. huey lewis?

Congrats on the big win. Now can you hlp me out with some of these, here is what I was thinking:

Good night, Gracie. - George Burns (not sure of the show title)
Up your nose with a rubber hose. - No idea.
I love it when a plan comes together. - A-Team (OK this was a gimme)
Oh, Elizabeth. This is the big one. - No idea.

Good night, Gracie..... that was George Burns yes, in THE GEORGE BURNS & GRACIE ALLEN SHOW. I have several of their episodes on DVD, as well as some of the earlier radio shows on CD. They were awesome!

Why, whoever would you be talking about?

It's starting to look like Captain Oblivious' TR has moved into the DIS Dad's thread.

And this is a bad thing??

That's what I was thinking.

Psst... PAGE 238 OWNAGE!

fed man!!! i know you cant say anything or you would have to kill us.

 

[afwdwfan]

And this is a bad thing??

Of course not! Your trip report is more fun than watching Beverly drinkers!



Do I get bonus points for promoting your TR?

 

[dvczerfs]

no, i havnt. i thought one of the dads did that not to long ago.

Fed, all I can say is thanks to you and your brethren. I work across the street from one of the Jewish organizations in Chicago and walk by it every day. Don't need any collateral damage around here.

You know every time I convince myself to try Beverly again. I think it really can't be that bad. Then when I try it again, I remember how bad it is. I think just carbinated water would taste better.
