Better Than The Original Dept.
Hi, reader. I wrote this in 2003 and it's now more than five years old. So it may be very out of date; the world, and I, have changed a lot since I wrote it! I'm keeping this up for historical archive purposes, but the me of today may 100% disagree with what I said then. I rarely edit posts after publishing them, but if I do, I usually leave a note in italics to mark the edit and the reason. If this post is particularly offensive or breaches someone's privacy, please contact me.
I am still laughing at Colin Hayman's Enterprise parodies. Example:
Bouncer: Not so fast, buster. You can't come in unless your name's on the list.
Mayweather: Oh, hi. A friend of mine gave me your address. What is this place, anyway?
Bouncer: Can't you read the sign? This is the Underused Characters' Tavern. Now gimme some ID and maybe I won't throw you across the street.
Mayweather: Underused characters? Hoshi must have made some mistake. See, I'm Travis Mayweather and --
Bouncer: Mayweather? That's YOU? Holy! Come in, come in! You're a legend with these guys!
