“Addadictome “ — HT to Rush Limbaugh for that. Too bad he quit using it about ten years ago.


Heard Rush use this just a few weeks ago.

Fun Fact:Chevalier means “Knight” in French.
The name “Donna Quixote” comes to mind.

... which wouldn’t have been so bad if the nearsighted surgeon hadn’t put it where his nose had been.

If you're not a disabled black homosexual working class woman, You're an oppressor pig and deserve to die!!!

That would be from "National Lampoon Lemmings" 1973 ... a hilarious spoof of the Woodstock Festival ... pre-SNL, I believe it was Chevy Chase who yelled out that screed in the original soundtrack. Although your quote isn't exactly what he said, it's fairly close, and almost prophetic of what we see today.

Trust me, if Google fired this being it was because the being was insufferable to all and sundry.

Indeed. Back when "hip comedy" was an equal-opportunity provocateur :)

It was my understanding that Chevalier means ‘horseman’ or ‘one who rides a horse’. No?

“Don’t be evil” supposedly is Google’s motto - ironic in itself inasmuch as Google seems to aggressivelt court people who revel in pernicious behavior.

Maybe Google should just drop the “Don”t” from the motto.
