(Mild) If I hear 'git-r-done' one more time, I'm setting fire to Larry the Cable Guy

There you go, pushing your agenda again, hmm? :smiley:

I was down visiting my cousin and he told me his son got in trouble for sleeping with his 10th grade teacher.

Bad thing was, he was being home schooled.

Lord, I apologize for that.

My cousin’s a big woman, big. She works as a runway model. At the airport.

Knowed Out, thanks - I’m now choking on my lunch. :smiley:

He’s often funny - but I’d pay good money never to hear ‘Git-r-Done’ again.

He also mutters something else…something about all the starving pygmies in New Guinea, amen.

My favorite form Larry: “What’s the number for 911?”
Heh!

The only thing I know about Larry the Cable Guy is that he’s one of the starring characters in Pixar’s Cars. That’s good enough for me. :slight_smile:

Oh, man, I’m so glad it ain’t just me! I can’t explain it–everything you said about him is perfectly true–and he is so sexy!

I love all the guys on the Blue Collar tours, Larry included. That bit about his deaf brother just kills me!

Don’t worry Gabe, I’m with you. Larry the Cable guy is about as unfunny as it gets. I guess I just don’t “get it,” but that’s ok with me.

The dumbass sold out three shows here in Indy. We can’t get decent bands to come here, but we can support the redneck guy! Hooooooweeee.

Definately the funniest of the four. I love his story about how he bought a new van and went to show it to his brother-in-law who says, “I can’t believe you didn’t buy a Mercedes Benz. My car has the little three inch wiper blades to keep my headlights clean during a rainstorm.” To which he replies, “Well, mine’s got a place where I can have sex with your sister!”

That cracks me up just thinking about it.

After watching the original BCCT dvd, I thought Ron White was by far the funniest of the four. Shortly after that made it big, the BCCT guys started coming through here. I had no desire to see Foxworthy or Engvall (although I like some of the here’s your sign bit). I was talked in to seeing Larry the Cable Guy. He was excellent. I was all over seeing Ron White. Honestly, it was a huge waste of time and money. He was mostly trying out new material and it went over with a resounding thud. Where Larry seemed to be enjoying himself and promised to make himself available after the show for however long there were people who wanted to meet him, Ron White seemed annoyed at even being there. He gave off a huge “just cashing a paycheck” vibe. It was extremely disappointing.

I always liked one of his lines though.

Ron (relating about being thrown into public): “I didn’t know how many of them it was going to take, but I knew how many they were going to use.”

One I like from Larry.

woman in the crowd (screaming): “I love you Larry”
Larry (without missing a beat): “I thought I told you to wait in the truck”

In a nutshell:

Larry has a large sister, who’s covered in moles. She was feeling depressed, so he takes her to the flea market to buy her something nice and cheer her up.

She’s feeling sorry for herself about the moles, and they walk past a guy with no legs (name of “Lucky”). Larry starts telling her that she should be happy for what God has given her, as opposed to what she perceives as flaws (I’m obviously taking some liberties with the language).

She agrees, and starts to cheer up. As they walk past the no-legged guy, Larry hears him mutter, “Did you see the MOLES on that girl?”

I did like one of his jokes:

“I had this great job as a lifeguard… until some blue kid got me fired.”

Old Simpsons joke, delivered by Homer.

David Cross doesn’t like him either.

An Open Letter to Larry the Cable Guy

I can’t help but think that, given “Larry’s” background, this might be a contrived comedic duel.

This type of garbage is coming to Sirius Satellite Radio

I love David Cross.

This does not surprise me in the least. I always thought that this guy was way smarter than his character. If I were forced to say why, I would suggest that his sense of humor is way too sharp for most of his jokes. Yes, most of his jokes are the definition of “low-brow,” but I think there is a lot of thought behind them.

That, annnnnnd, at the end of BCCT (the first), during the credits, he does a “northern-gay-guy” voice so much better than any true southerner I have ever heard try it. I’ve always thought it was easier to pick up a southern accent than a northern one.
