Isn't that the name of the character from 'A Confederacy of Dunces'? Also doesn't Will Ferrell own the movie rights to that? Iirc Belushi, Farrelly, and Candy were all supposed to play the role but died before it could be filmed.
 
I went to the Angels game last night and a woman sitting near me had a massive tattoo across her large, beefy back. It was a tattoo of U2. It had the entire band from head to waist standing around the massive letters 'U2'. Seriously, wtf? People are idiots.

Exactly!!! And to think, I was gonna give him free fake legal advice. F'in Dilfer.And YSR, could you please be less selfish and not put yourself in these types of situations that may cause you to die. I mean, your death would really screw up our Scrabble Tournament with ole WhitePants.
 
Went into a local fast food establishment for a little lunch to go. One guy in front of me in line. He has a bit of a complicated order, but I didn't mind. I have been on the receiving end of trying to buy lunch for more than one person and there can be some bumps in the road as you try and convey multiple wishes to the hard worker on the other side of the counter. What I DID mind was what happened next. His bill came to $14.02. He is holding a twenty. The guy stops down the line, announces his intentions, and goes back out to his car, to get two freakin' pennies. A good three minutes pass as the worker and I share awkward stares as she can't take my order until she finishes his order out. He comes back, holding his pennies up, handing them over to the cashier with his twenty, grabs his food, his change, and heads out the door.

On top of that, my lunch was beyond nasty, and I tossed 90% of it out back at the office.

 
Added to the list of people the don't appreciate good shtick: Pretty much every teacher in my district.

We had an in-service today for the entire district. 3 hour long motivational speaker type deal. One of our tasks was to write down any good ideas that we might possibly use in our own classrooms.

The speaker running the show said "Whenever you have 3 really good things, things that you would share with new teacher, I want you to call out. But what I want you to do is give me your best impression of Al Pacino in 'Scent of a Woman'. You guys know that, right? Who can say it for me?"

I called out "ATTICA! ATTICA!"

:crickets:

Oh and this was too weird to let it go. The speaker-woman also brought some dude with her. I thought at first he was just her flunky...setting up her laptop, video taping her presentation etc.

About 15 minutes into it she has the guy come out with his guitar. He was wearing a black suit and a Beatle wig. Apparently "Paul" was supposed to be a problem student. She would ask him a question and he would answer by playing/singing a snippet from a Beatles song.

Her: When did you lose your book?

Paul: Yesterday...

Her: Why didn't you finish your assignment?

Paul: Help! I really need someone...Help!

Her: I'm going to send a letter home to your parents. Where do they live?

Paul: We all live in a yellow submarine...a yellow submarine

Etc

This really happened.

So at the end when we were all walking out the door "Paul" was standing there playing "Blackbird" on his guitar. I told him "Good work today, Ringo."

I'm thinking of going to the bank and getting a couple hundred dollars in Susan B Anthony Dollars and two dollar bills, then using that as my sole currency for the week.

Ran into an interesting fella three summers back at a music fest who was all over the $2 bill shtick. He told me the bank only gives them out now in bulks of $600...not sure if I believe that or not. But he had a huge wad of them. Told me that he's knonw all over Reno as "Two Dollar Bill" and leaves them as tips. Thought that was pretty cool, but I'm kind of nerdy like that.

IIRC, Steve Wozniak (the other guy at Apple) is known for this as well, he gets stacks of $2s and glues them together at one end, like a notepad, and peels them off as needed for tips or whatever
