He is rumor, whispered about on street corners and living in other people’s dreams. He is the stillpoint without which there could be no dance. He is the space between the notes. He was the ninth Beatle.
I don’t know who he is, but I wish he’d stop using my name.
John Corrado, let me be the first to welcome you to the SDMB!
I thought that Mod was imaginary, like the toothfairy or in-stock sale items at Best Buy.
Revtim, you are da best. I’ve been pissy all morning and that made me giggle.
I heart John Corrado.
Rust stains in the toilet were named in honor of him.
Who the fuck is John Corrado?
Who the fuck is John Corrado?
Who the fuck is John Cor-ad-do…?
Ear-lay in the mornin’…
Ear-lay? I don’t care if it’s morning or not, that’s just weird. How is that even possible?
Arr, whatcha be making o’ how I talk fer?
Right, no, it’s not “Where in the World is John Corrado Diego.”
“Who the Fuck is John Corrado” was a companion came to “Where the Fuck is Carmen Sandiego?” Perhaps you are just confused.
Companion GAME. Companion GAME.
I make so many typos, you’d think I’d’ve learned about that thrice-damned ‘preview’ button by now…
Game?
Kinda slow in the uptake their aren’t you Fox in the Snow?
Amp, for some of us “Who the Fuck is John Corrado?” is no mere game but rather a lifelong struggle to discover the nature of this msyterious and alluring stranger.
And please include a link to the Cecil column you’re discussing.
From now on, all toilets in this country will be known as John Corrados.
Hmmmm perhaps I was hallucinating when I saw 2 of Alpha’s posts a year or so ago.
I’m glad. In case you didn’t know though, that was from an SNL sketch, I didn’t write it. I wish I did though. “He uses live elk for toilet paper!” Classic.
Hey, lay off the guy. It’s bad enough that his dad named him after a tacky late 80’s Golf-based two-door midlife crisis mobile.
When he was 16, no less.
Revtim, what the hell was that? It was funny, whatever it was. Hey… waidaminute. You didn’t just copy this and subsituted “Bill Brasky” with “John Corrado”, did you?
