You do the math…
Okay. I’m assuming you want us to solve for ? and show our work.
Gilligan + ? = Mr. Howell
Gilligan + ? - Gilligan = Mr. Howell - Gilligan
? = Mr. Howell - Gilligan
How’d I do?
Basically, what TV character would you add to the equation so Gilligan is on par with Mr. Howell. There ya go…
On par how? As rich as Mr. Howell? As old as Mr. Howell? As happily married as Mr. Howell?
Your OP didn’t make any sense and you haven’t given us much help with your second post either.
You’re looking at it too closely. Look at the big picture.
You know, that stuff’ll kill you if you smoke enough of it.
Their all stereotypes. To try and equate one character with another or assume that one character is “better” than another is ridiculous.
Of course there are some shows that do have annoying characters you wish they would get rid of.
[sub]Wesley…Urkel…Jar Jar Binks, ect. [/sub]
OK, I’ll play:
Gilligan + George Burns = Mr. Howell ???
Gilligan + (Montgomery Burns/George Burns) x Mr. Magoo - Maynard Krebs = Mr. Howell
Gilligan + The Imperious Leader Of The Cylon Empire = Mr. Howell
In addition,
Gilligan X Broccoli = Howard Cosell’s Hair Gell
and,
Gilligan/Joe Isuzu = Yanni
It all makes as much sense as the OP.
? is obviously Rush Limbaugh.
Gilligan + 42 = Mr. Howell
is my best guess. I assume we can’t use negative numbers.
The closest I can come is Gilligan + Ginger = Restraining Order, but math has never been my strong suit.
Actually, I think the original post was talking about the ineffable. It really was more of a religious statement.
this is the strangest shit i’ve read in a long time.
i have always wondered why the professor wasn’t getting busy with ginger and mary anne.
as for the original question, i don’t see any answers, personally…
Gilligan +The Skipper=Mr.Howell
I have discovered a truly wonderful proof of
this proposition, but the margin is too small to contain it.
Hmmm…
(Gilligan + Skipper)/Ginger = Monkeyshines
Monkeyshines/Gin = Mr. Howell
Another possibility might be
Gilligan X George Jetson[sup]2[/sup] + Mr Spaceley
but that offends Occam’s Razor
How about
Gilligan + 3 coconuts + fermented melon balls =Mai Tai
MaiTai + briefcase of money = Mr Howell
or maybe
Gilligan + (Batman/catwoman) = Mr. Howell
hmmm… no, Batman over Catwoman equals the Hayes Commission…
Well, those are my best estimates! You’ll get my bill in the mail.
What makes Gilligan a stereotype?
Actually, the characters of the Gilligan’s Island series represent the seven deadly sins.
Mr. Howell = Greed
The Skipper = Gluttony
Gilligan = Sloth
Ginger = Vanity
Maryann = Adultery
Professor = Wrath (yeah, it’s a stretch)
Mrs. Howell = dumbassedness (what’s the seventh sin?)
