State du Moi

I just heard Dave Attell say “I consider myself a stay-at-home uncle” and I’m so jealous of that line I wanna throw up 🤮😜🤣🤣🙌🙌

Denzil Me Old Mucker! 🤗🤗🤗🤗

To celebrate Paul Barber’s birthday I watched his first Only Fools and Horses episode, Who’s a Pretty Boy, to whit (is it whit or wit? Check my Pat's King of Steaks cultural reference right there bitches!!):


And even tho I've watched it 94,000 times already it’s only now dawning on me to wonder I mean dafuck maybe Denzil didn’t live in Nelson Mandela House but he was broke as Del was yet somehow had what looks like 12-foot ceilings in his apartment? 🤔🤷‍♂️

Just Sayin'...

I mean look I understand people don't usually associate Donald Trump & Taylor Swift with each other but it's just occurred to me -"to me"...as opposed to it occuring to anybody else, I suppose? - that one of them has based his second presidential term on scorched-Earth vengeance and the other has based her career on scorched-Earth vengeance, so...here they are, each cresting at the peak of their own power...? 🤔🤷

WHAT's the Deal...

I remember having a vague sense of who Jerry Seinfeld was when his sitcom was starting, which makes sense I guess since he was apparently such a well-known comic nationwide he was the premise for an entire Saturday Night Live sketch in 1986, years before his hit sitcom began.

Speaking of Paul Giamatti Who We Love Love Love...

...let's not forget to also pat him on the back for making this most sacred list of lists, the XMASTIME MOVIE CAMEO HALL OF FAME!!

Pig Vomit

Coach Bobby Finstock

Harry freakin' Doyle

Something I've Noticed During this Thing Called Life, by Xmastime

Personal assistants on tv shows are either next-level super Jedis or complete bumbling idiots and there doesn't ever seem to be any in-between. 🤔🤷

Advice for Young People. I Have It.

I don't consider myself to be a man of great wisdom and I don't think anybody ever looks to me for advice but as I see all the young gentlemen in my life growing closer to adulthood there's one piece of advice I would like to pass on to them: the final hurdle to be cleared on the final stretch of road to adulthood is to be living alone but still fully committed to always shutting the bathroom door when using it.

XMASTIME POP QUIZ

Which of these will happen first: I’m able to fully assemble this, or June?

The Pandemic Taught Us All So Much 😔


FOOTNOTES!!

I'm fascinated by uber-footnotes in history; either in pictures (ie. who's the woman in the picture they always show kneeling over the body at Kent State?) or otherwise (Raymond Jones walking into the NEMS shop and asking Brian Epstein for the "My Bonnie" single, which made Epstein curious about The Beatles) Who are these people? Has anyone ever interviewed them? That should be a whole book, interviews with these footnote people.

HERE'S A LINK TO ALL THE FOOTNOTES POSTS SO FAR

WHO 👏 THE 👏 HELL 👏 WAS 👏 THIS 👏 FAN 👏 WHO 👏 THREW 👏 OUT 👏 THE 👏 WHITE 👏 DOVE???!??!?!?!?!

Cinema Questions. I Have Them.

Do film director’s call this “The Giamatti Shot”? Why do I feel like I’ve seen it a million times over the decades?

OVERLY DRAMATIC SHARK


Annual 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 🤗🤗🤗🤗

 

Oh Happy Day! 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

A bottle of Guinness was split on the floor
When the pub was shut for the night
Out crept a mouse from his little hole
And sat in the pale moonlight

He lapped at the frothy brew
Then back on his haunches he sat
And all night you could hear him roar
"Bring on the fucking cat!"

Still a Top 5 Twitter Moment for Me 🤗🤗🤣😜🕺 #citizensmith #spy #extras



Good Question 😬😬😬😬

Good Ol' Trigger 🤗🤗🤣🇮🇪


Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Me greeting my Irish homeland for the very first time in 2016 and yes they specifically put up that fence so I wouldn’t tumble down the hill & get eaten by adorable Irish cartoon mice.

My Nomination for the Irish National Anthem

My Incredible, Almost-Hard-to-Believe Connection to The Kinks & England Thanks to SUNNY AFTERNOON

I mean it must mean something that the most British of British songs, the one sitting on top of the charts the day the unthinkable happened and England won the Word Cup and therein cementing it forever as the sound of that summer and England glory forever - the very summer that was the most British of all British summers - was written by the most British of British writers and just now on St. Patrick's Day I realize it hit #1 in my homeland of Ireland on the very date that would become the exact day of my own birth 6 years later, right?

Regulators! Mount!

WHO WILL JOIN ME in a furious boycott of boycotts if both of my novels are somehow left off this list????????

Watching TV with Xmastime!

Annual St. Patrick’s Day Viewing 🤗🤣🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
