Another reason you don't tell a current employer before you've signed anything-- and I've seen this happen!-- is that your current employer through some digging can usually find your new employer, call them, bad mouth you, and sour your relationship with your potential new employer.

It's just a hidden commercial for the new Smurf movie. It doesn't even follow the continuity of the show. Howard is asking for an apology for something that didn't happen (The Midget's last appearance in December basically had him wanting to be off the show forever) while mentioning the Smurfs at random intervals. It's the Stern version of Montel Williams hocking poo poo via infomercial.

I hope someone calls in and calls her on this. Now she could say "oh, I meant to day I didn't know what was in them" and it would be done, But no, she'll claim she's never had one in her entire life and wouldn't know one if she saw it.

The Midget has never collected a goddamn smurf in his life. Listen to that megapack: smurfs never come up once, and nobody would let gold like that go away. The only bright side that could have come with this would be Artie laughing at a midget collecting smurfs, and that made the whole thing even worse.

As Counterpoint: Why would The Smurfs ever have come up in the past? It seems to me like the kind of thing he would KNOW they would make fun of him for, so why mention it without cause? He's only bringing it up now because he's a celebrity whore and wants to get on the red carpet.

That said, I wouldn't be surprised if it all turned out to be an elaborate ad...

I think you guys are overthinking it. She's probably saying she doesn't know what's IN a hot dog. Which is a valid point. I love em, but when I order one I have no idea if it's pork assholes or cow lips.

I guess the same could be said of sausage, but when I think of sausage, I automatically think "pork" even though there are millions of variety of sausages.

For someone who acts like the paragon of health food and dieting, even with her own little cooking show or whatever the gently caress it is, you'd think she would know what a hot dog consists of for argumentative purposes at least.

Counter-counterpoint: we're talking about a midget who measured his own dick and thought Carrie Underwood was trying to have phone sex with him. If he was such a big fan of Smurfs (like country music and such), he would have let it drop by now. Or it would have been seen on his webcams and such. Nobody would have let that tidbit go.

Good times, man. But to be fair, ETM doesn't talk hardly at all about his childhood, and what he might have watched outside of old WWF rasslin. Although, if they do start hammering Eric with smurfs jokes and he comes back on the air regularly, I'll be psyched. The negotiations are gonna rule.

Also, I found another great little Eric tidbit this weekend. When he was calling up demanding to be roasted, there was this little exchange.

Court stenographer Mark Mercer:

quote:

This painting was from the show listed below; Howard Paints Like Jackson Pollock 4/4/01 4/4/01. 6:05am (Snipped) Howard recently told Robin that he was going to paint something similar to a Jackson Pollock painting so she could try and tell which one was his. She had been saying that Pollock's paintings ''move'' her. Howard had someone show 6 paintings to Robin so she could guess which was Howard's. She wasn't able to figure out which was Howard's but she did pick out a phony. Howard knew she wouldn't be able to pick it out. He said all Pollock did was spray paint garbage on a canvas. Robin said she picked out the 2 that she recognized as being Pollock's. Howard said he painted the thing in 7 minutes. Robin argued that she knew the ones that moved her and not Pollock's earlier crap. Howard kept trying to get her to pick out the pictures that didn't move her and she wouldn't do it.

Robin was getting very emotional and loud with Howard. He was trying to prove a point with this whole thing but it wasn't happening. Robin finally broke down and picked number 6 as Howard's. It was actually number 3 which Fred had guessed. Howard said the painting was called ''Help''. Robin was still sounded very upset over the whole thing for no reason. Robin eventually told Howard that his painting did look like early Jackson Pollock. A listener called in and offered Howard $10,000 for the painting but Howard didn't want to give it up. Howard told the guy he was going to do a new painting that he'd give him for free. He said he's going to pleasure himself on a black canvas and he'll let the guy have it free. The guy didn't want to take him up on the offer. Robin said she never could pick out Howard's painting. She said she just let Howard do his thing after he claimed he could paint something that would move her. She told Howard to just let her be moved by something and leave it at that. Howard said ''I won!'' to Robin a few times to quiet her down. She really didn't care though. The two of them argued about Pollock and whether or not he was talented.

Robin said that Howard has to crap on everything that she likes. When she said that she liked Gregory Hines, Howard went in a bathroom and tap danced to show that anyone could do it. Now he's done this with Jackson Pollock. Howard said tomorrow he'll take a crap and it'll look like a Monet. Robin went silent for a minute. She then said that she wanted to crap on Stuttering John because he was just standing there laughing like a fool. After taking a break Howard said that the Pollock stuff won't be on any of his TV shows. The E! people told him that they don't have rights to the paintings so they can't show them on TV. Howard wondered why that is and why people can take stuff out of his book and put it on TV like they did on MSNBC. That led to Howard talking about the MSNBC special that was done about him recently. He just watched it and it bummed him out. He said he doesn't know why shows like that bum him out but this one sure did.

I have neglected so many podcasts I listen to regularly over the last few weeks so I can listen to this miserable little gently caress. It's honestly the only thing keeping me in this thread at the moment--no slight to you guys, of course; this thread is why I joined the forums and even without the show I still enjoy the talk here.

I am astounded at how seriously Eric takes himself and I have to imagine it speaks to how sheltered he was most of his life. Gary put it best when he said "Every day Eric calls in he expects it to be the day he gets treated with the respect he thinks he deserves."

The "roast me!" parts are for sure a highlight of his appearances. Possibly my favorite hidden gem is the revelation that he stalked some poor random girl from some short-lived reality show hosted by Amy Grant called "Three Wishes." He, I guess, called her and made various other forms of contact with her and used the excuse "They didn't exactly do a very good job of hiding where she lives, and I wasn't the only one who did it." He's an absolute creep and a cretin.

I'm at the point in the archives now where he's blaming Natalie Maines for the loss of his sex with whores, which is probably the climax of the Eric saga.

What'd we get out of 2009? "Club-fuckin'-footed!" is about it, right?

I think the only mention of Eric and Smurfs up to now was "Rub your Smurf cock on the phone."

2009 was an epic year. And keep in mind that a lot of that stuff went down from January to May. The Midget was a guaranteed laugh, with the possible exception of the Robert Mills stuff. That just grew tired after a while. But the Midget's fame really tied after Artie left. Without that counterbalance, you get the Smurf Commercial.

I don't understand this at all. To me the news is the best part of the show, by far. Everyone is excited to leave/tired from the show and they get all goofy and stupid. Plus it's Fred's time to shine. When Artie was on the show the news was guaranteed to crack me up.
