The most interesting man in the world

Remember, folks, he’s the most interesting man in the world, not the toughest, smartest, coolest, etc. I think the ads get away from that sometimes. My favorite: “You see I fell in love with Dos Equis after my short stay in jail in Guadalajara. In fact I returned every Thursday after I was sprung to play canasta with some of the guards. I express reservations.”

Read one of the early ones here. I say we start a campaign to get him back to his roots.

In other news, apparently my best friend knows someone in LA who docks his boat next to that actor’s boat. So I’m only three degrees away from the most interesting man in the world. How cool am I?

He once ran a marathon backwards, just to see what second place looks like.

I’m glad they dropped the ads where he gave advice. He’s not supposed to have an opinion about anything. People are supposed to imagine what his opinions are, and believe that his opinions actually satisfy both sides of an issue.

That said, he once performed an appendectomy during an earthquake with a ball-point pen and a flashlight. On himself.

This is by far the best one I’ve ever heard.

He rose from the dead on the *second *day.

Superman wears pajamas with his likeness printed on them.

The boogie man is pretty sure he’s under the bed.

He once beat Gary Kasparov at chess…with checkers.

He once won a Russian roulette tournament using a fully loaded gun…He went first.

My favorite of that series still holds, then: the subject was “Manscaping”, and after a brief pause, the Most Interesting Man said, “…I have no idea what this is.”

Damn right, he’s just that manly.

Smiles and says nothing when people call Neil Armstrong the first man on the moon

Favorite line from the commercial:

“When he’s in Rome, they do as he does.”
Cracks me up every time.

J.

People standing in line invite him to cut in front of them.

He always gets what he needs AND what he wants.

The baby of the most interesting man in the world…

Earler Dope thread here.

There are some pretty damn funny ones in there.

My personal favorite:

[QUOTE=Princhester]
He once held the rapt attention of a theater full of teenage girls with ADD for four hours by sitting silently on the stage on a chair looking like he was about to speak.

[/QUOTE]

My favorite line is “In museums, he’s allowed to touch the art”

He doesn’t test his code, but when he does he does it in production.

Never seen those ads before, or heard of the beer. Lots of good lines in this thread and the other one.

*Restaurants call him to make a reservation.

His balloon animals are indistinguisable from the real thing.

He has never won a literary prize, as those who start reading his books are unable to put them down.

He has a reserved seat at the UN assembly.

He told the original version of “The Aristocrats” joke, all others are a pale imitation.

He wasn’t surprised by anything in The Necronomican.

He knows what caused the big bang, and the truth about penguins.

He could charm either guard into telling him which door was safe.*

He once held a conversation with a friend in a theater during a performance of Hamlet starring Laurence Olivier. Olivier apologized to him for interrupting him with his soliloquy.

He’s never had to resort to giving socks at Christmas.

The most interesting man in the world has found God. Drunk, without purpose, and wearing no pants.

I must be getting more interesting myself, because I just put this one on twitter:

“Three porn websites have signed up to follow me. Apparently, I’m so good, porn watches ME.”
