Picture time
Pretty much how I feel about everything he is in on the Food Network or when he’s on air the Spiky Hair Greaseball Network. They never do close-ups because he is so greasy and no amount of make-up can make it disappear.
Well anything with Guy Fieri is better than this proposed show.
This guy went as the government shutdown. Very clever.
You know…he’s making more and more sense the more I hear him speak.
Thank god for the Beastie Boys
I don’t think I want to drink that.
And then people wonder why there are so many paternity segments on Maury.
It’s bound to happen sooner or later because I can imagine some “progressive” parents who want to be their child’s friend instead of their parent will see that their little girl has poor self-esteem and think this is the only way to help her feel better about herself.
YES YES YES YES YES YES!
Don’t leave home to take a walk on the wild side without it.
Make sure to tell your friends

I did not know that about sharks. Why is it that sharks seem meaner? lol My wife has nice teeth and sadly I have to report that words of improvement opportunities flow over her teeth like water. lol
Love your posts.
how I wish that one were true…I’d actually love to see a shark with fewer teeth than us. They can’t have any fewer than my dad. He had his removed because the fillings had lead or mercury in them and he just figured dentures would be easier and cause less problems.
I like Guy, and tequila
I’ll let all five of my friends know about the deal of the day!
tequila…oh I have a lot of problems with that stuff. One time in college I drank almost a whole bottle in ten minutes. It went down so smooth because it was at least 20 years old. I could feel myself turn drunk. It was like a light switch being turned off. Then the next day I sniffed the bottle and my eyes started watering. Every time I smell tequila I have that same reaction now.
RYC Journey Fail: I would’ve been better off taking a midnight train to anywhere.
I think it’s interesting to see how networks and movie studios dole out the use of nasty words. I think that they are effective in limited circumstances, but not really necessary. I heard that in order to maintain a PG13 rating, you can only use the word “fuck” once.
Yeah you are correct with the use of the word in PG13 movies. It can be used once but it can’t be used to describe the sex act. My favorite was in the movie The Ringer where Johnny Knoxville poses as a Special Olympian because he has to pay off his uncle’s gambling debts and he thinks he can beat the handicapped. Anyway the line brought me to tears.
I use to love watching Diners Drive in’s and Dives but you’re probably right about it making you sick. So much butter and well most had bacon grease in it too.
I just don’t get why Guy Fieri is so popular. His food isn’t good and he’s just so loud and unfunny.
Ahahah, scotch. I had the chance to go to Guy’s restaurant… and I didn’t. Ew. Didn’t hear good things at all.
Oh man, I actually sort of want to go to his one in Times Square because of all the negative reviews it gets. I just want to see if it’s really that bad. I did buy his frozen pizza and it was AWFUL!
Oh man, I should have voted for Jesse Ventura.
We have this guy running for governor (apparently he runs for everything) who claims that the NSA caused 911 and the reason he can’t get elected is because the NSA gives anyone who says they will vote for him 20,000 dollars to not vote for him. His name is Jeff Boss. I wonder if he thinks “I should BE the boss because my NAME is boss.”
I think I could buy a second of Bill Gates for the same as a monthly car payment. If only I had something that I needed him for for just a SECOND it might be worth it. I think maybe I could just hold up a sign that says “I <3 my MacBook Air" since there wouldn't be time to say it.
The first time I ever voted was when I was a freshman in college and I was considered a resident of Minnesota so I went to vote for Jesse simply because he was a pro-wrestler. I thought it was my way of saying that I hate the two party system. Well it was and he won. Did a lot of good for the state plus he came to my campus a few times and I got to talk to him a few times. Really down to earth guy. He’d be great for the presidency except I think people would focus too much on his conspiracy theories.
There is a guy in my town that runs for U.S. congress and state congress every year. The last election he “campaigned” at the lake by throwing tea bags at passing cars and then at the end of the day his supporters re-enacted the Boston Tea Party by dumping a few boxes of tea bags in the lake. He didn’t win the election.
You know Bill Gates is quite the philanthropist. I’ve heard he has paid off people’s cars but then that could all be rumors.
Haha, I like the government shutdown idea. I saw somewhere else online an idea to be a TSA screener and have a cardboard scanner to have people walk through. That would have been a hilarious costume. Free groping for all!
holy crap that TSA screener idea would be awesome but then that’s coming from a very lonely guy.
I love your strange facts!
That’s cool about how many times children laugh in a day, but sad that adults laugh so much less.
Guy bothers me.
Wish I could rec this post or re-blog it like you can on WP!
How you doing, Matty?
Keep blogging!
HUGS!!!
I’m glad you enjoyed.
The children laughing is one of the true ones actually.
I tried watching part of Guy’s new show on Food Network but I got disgusted when he called it Triple G. His other show is Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives and he calls it Triple D. This one is Guy’s Grocery Games.
I should probably start using WP once I get more time.
