I don't think it smelled like anything to him. I think that he could only smell stuff that was really strong, and he tended to avoid any cologne or aftershaves because he could never tell if he'd put too much or enough on.

I like that in a man, whatever his motivation. |

Did it affect his sense of taste as well? Ever try any experiments while cooking for him? He could be an ideal Fear Factor contestant.

This reminds me of the show with the young guy who owned an apartment building in NYC but got his furniture from things people threw away.

I'm fairly certain it was a building in Fort Greene, Brooklyn.
Gentrified area that is getting much nicer, but not exactly the UWS (or Cobble Hill, for that matter) |

I dunno. For some reason I don't think so, because he really liked subtle tastes, which I would think are difficult to discern if his taste was out of whack too. I'll encourage him to submit an application, though, just in case.

He said he hadn't ever bought anything in the X years that he was dating his girlfriend and looked like Jai kicked him in the nuts when Jai suggested that he (i.e. not the show) pay for a cheap faux silver charm to give her as a present. Not behavior that should be rewarded.

I don't trust anything that happened in that episode since someone (PJ? NCS?) pointed out an article on realityblurred.com saying Alan Corey is a reality show publicity whore, having made appearances also on "The Restaurant" and "Meet My Folks," and is a standup comic more than an RE entrepreneur. The whole cheap-ass thing might have been an act, which is a shame because his Tourette's-like response to breaking the antique martini pitcher was the funniest fucking thing I've ever seen on reality TV, and that includes several Bush press conference clips on Jon Stewart.
I don't care if people think this show has jumped; I still heart Thom. In other news, Jai is useless except for introducing the Nebbish to Boy George and showing him how not to apply makeup to your bald spot, and introducing him to Rosie to show that just because you love Broadway doesn't mean you know anything about it.
Am I the only one who thought the guy wound up looking a little too much like Stanford on SATC? |

The Very Best Holiday Episode on Television Ever
Quote:
Les: It's a helicopter, and it's coming this way. It's flying something behind it, I can't quite make it out, it's a large banner and it says, uh - Happy... Thaaaaanksss... giving!... From... W.... ... K... ... R... ... P!
Les: No parachutes yet. Can't be skydivers... I can't tell just yet what they are, but - Oh my God, Johnny, they're turkeys!! Johnny, can you get this? Oh, they're plunging to the earth right in front of our eyes! One just went through the windshield of a parked car! Oh, the humanity! The turkeys are hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement! Not since the Hindenberg tragedy has there been anything like this!
Johnny: Les? Are you there? Les isn't there. (composing him-self) Thanks for that on-the-spot report, Les, and for those of you who just tuned in, the Pinedale Shopping Mall has just been bombed with live turkeys. Film at eleven.
Mr. Carlson: (bursting through door) As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Just so long as you stay away from Ted. (Much as I like Thom, Vern from TS still has my interior-decorating heart.)

Sorry about that... 
FWIW, from now on, whenever Penske types "oh the humanity!" I'm going to hear Les Nesman's voice crying the phrase in despair.
And I'm outta here.

I think he ruined tons of furniture with the only piece of advice he ever gave that translated as useable to the viewer. I'm just glad my wife saw the clip so she didn't think I'd intentionally ruined her mom's table, that I always felt didn't really fit in our living room.

It is increasingly obvious that Ted is King Dork. Not a bad guy, but hardly evidence that pirate smokers are automatically cooler than the rest of us. That you heart him gives hope to dorky straight guys.
Thom and Vern have something in common. Well, two things. The second thing is that the both are big fucking cheaters on budget in order to protect their reps as designers IRL. There is no way Vern has done any room within $1K, and no way Thom did the Nebbish's whole house within $10K. They probably hide half of their receipts and expense them to their IRL businesses as a very wise investment in free advertising. |

(I'd like to preemptively note in my own defense that I was an English major specializing in Shakespeare and Milton). I get a fair amount of edification out of much of what you write. Just, not that.

I am always open to avatar suggestions. You may have inadvertently insulted rp more than you did me on hating this one.
I am not familiar with this "Jay-Z" or "Adult Swim" and frequently scan your posts because they make no sense to me. However, on the plus side, they aren't annoying (to me, at least).
I was not an English major and had to google the St. John the Baptist thingy. I think the point was more "head on a plate" than religious or historical or literary or whatever.
In any event, have at offering me alternate avatars if you wish. Please size them appropriately; I don't know how to resize.
Happy Thanksgiving! |

A brain in a jar is good. You can't really go wrong with a brain in a jar.
Happy Thanksgiving.

Since you have the head, how about the rest of the body?
