Speaking of Swedish Chefs…
How old were they? I find it amazing that they wouldn’t already know of the show.
There were about 6 of them, between 24-40. They’ve heard of the muppets, particularly Kermit, Miss Piggy, and probably Fozzy Bear. But the Swedish Chef? That was something all together unknown, and as I said, totally unfunny to them. I guess I was working with a bunch of Swedes with deprived childhood.

Hells bells, I can understand just about anybody if I’m drunk, especially if their drunk.
