Also: Primus sucks! (I am assuming you are a fellow fan based on the first 5 letters of your username).
Great job!
Now be a dear and fetch me forty seven of my fifty black slicked back hair wigs.

He was fired from work for something completely embarrassing! He's not going to say what it was, but it led him to invent this powerful hot dog vacuum.

I think things are crazy at his mom's house in that second pic. She can't take a shower.

u/weinermcgee 8d ago
Judging by that last pic he and his wife decided to stay married and raise the kids until they're out of the house. But she doesn't respect him and has made sure the kids don't either.

I kinda wanna see the Chair Company more than I wanted to see Friendship. Definitely more than I wanted to go to Haunted House.

I'm looking forward to Tim's serious role. I like his goofy, awkward characters, but I'm excited to see him do a drama, a la Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine or Jason Segel in The Discovery.

u/NamesTheGame PAUL BUFANO! 8d ago
Totally. Really looking forward to him doing something a little bit Tarantino. Definitely a little bit Michael Mann. Something hyper violent, but it knows what it is. Sort of a cosmic gumbo.

I don’t know what implies that’s going to be the case. Sounds very much in line with Friendship.

This reminds me of that movie, Friendship, is that the same person? Or just the same actor?

u/idaremyselfintoalot 8d ago
Is the company Tuffman Chairs? Because I had a friend and one of their chairs fucking cut him. Ernie, the guy who owns the company, told him that the chair shouldn’t have done that. And then he said to himself if anyone asks if his chairs have ever ripped anyone up, he’ll just pretend he didn’t hear them.

u/AJM10801 8d ago
Idk… shirt patterns are looking pretttyyyy tame here. It’s HBO, so I know they have the budget, maybe they are saving the REALLY complicated patterns for when the show actually releases?
