I like it, you got some balls. Although I agree with the majority of what you said in the Carollaesque rant, it would have probably been better as something left unsaid. Then again gently caress it, you'll never see them again.

Are you the guy who called up and said "Hey Adam, you changed my life. I used to be a missionary working with poor people in central America but then I listened to you and now I don't do that anymore"

It was funny when everyone in the studio realized that Adam changed this guy's life, but not for the better.

Just listened to 2004-09-21 last night. There's an amazing clip I haven't heard before involving engineer Chris. They ask him what a spinning dreidal is. He gets to confused with the Tasmanian devil from loony tunes and accidentally calls Jews devils. Dr. Drew is speechless. 1:29:00 into the show.

Also recommend 2004-09-23 at the 1:15:00 minute mark. Caller gets very confused with the Germany or Florida game.

"Please, once you're married . . . don't get pregnant." When she turned around to ask why I could only respond "because you're too stupid for babies."

The second night we ended up back at their campsite and I ended up sitting down with another girl who just absolutely hated me for some reason.

Nothing you said was wrong, but I think it's hilarious you don't know why they didn't like you.

You know how Adam is always talking about how he's a likeable enough guy that he can pretty much get away with saying anything? I don't think cricket eater joe has got that.

He's "the creepy guy in the office."

To be fair, if we didn't know Adam from loveline, we'd be saying the same stuff about him. That is a pretty big if, given the thread, though.

It helped Adam and Drew that the callers were actually calling them for advice (although sometimes it didn't sound like it). I'm not sure if cricket eater joe's camping neighbors were actually asking for any criticism or direction.

cricket eater joe posted:

I may have been listening to too much loveline lately. I went camping with some buddies last weekend and there was a bachelorette party camping a short ways down from us.

The first night we went to the bachelorette campsite and drank for awhile and I somehow ended up in an argument with the bachelorette about religion. She was a hardcore creationist and was infuriated that I believed in dinosaurs and evolution, but I decided I wasn't going to start arguing with an idiot and instead tried to have a good time.

The second night we ended up back at their campsite and I ended up sitting down with another girl who just absolutely hated me because I am a confrontational rear end in a top hat. Despite being an rear end in a top hat, I had some genuine concern for the well being of her child and it went something like this.

me: you have a kid right? (complete guess)
her: Yes.
me: daughter?
her: Yes.
me: and the father is out the picture, and was a complete rear end in a top hat too right?
her: Yes.
me: and your dad, pretty much an rear end in a top hat too right? Alot like the rear end in a top hat ex?
her: Yes.
me: That's really a shame. If you really want what is best for your child you should think about getting some therapy and avoiding abusive men, even if they are the kind of people you are attracted to. If not, your child is probably going to grow up and make some of the same mistakes you have.

At that point my friends grabbed me and we decided to stop hanging out with hosed up single mothers and religious fanatics.

I was drunk/stoned as hell the other night over at a friend's place, and I saw that commercial on the TV, and got way way way too excited over seeing Carolla on a television. Then I realized it was a Klondike commercial and I settled down a little. Then the next morning, I thought I had just dreamed the whole thing. But thank you for the confirmation.

The carts here are different from the old common cassette tapes in a couple of ways...

They were inserted horizontally, pretty much just like you'd see here. There's no turning or flipping, in-out, like an Atari 2600 or top-loading NES.
If you kept the cart audio always on, you could easily put a cart in and press play in under a second, especially if you've literally done this 1000 times or more.
The tapes were Mobius strips so there was never a need to rewind or queue.

As long as no one came in and rearranged things on him, I could see how this could be done.

That's good info, thanks. Are you an engineer?

I wonder if they're still using the same system or if Anderson had his drops computerized towards the end of the Carolla days.
