Good Role Model Teaching Kids to Work Through Emotional Pain
Here is the exchange that broke it open for me. So fricking good. Even thought it was a "joke."
@aslo
Yeah, that's the scar tissue talking, let it go big guy, it's okay to cry... ; )
@transmorpher said:
So much cringe. I can't handle it. Not so much the people, but the editing. And definitely the cheery acoustic kickstarter music at the end. It hurts.
Good Role Model Teaching Kids to Work Through Emotional Pain
I heard the kid say that he didn't trust his left hand and he was pulling his punches -- not doing as he was trained in the fear of the moment.
I thought the leader did a terrific job with the kid.
I loved his acceptance of the tears. Paraphrasing what @aslo said elsewhere, jokingly, it is the scars that cry. (I paraphrased badly, by the way.)
We have to redefine what it means to be a "man." So much toxic masculinity out there.
Not a fan of hitting on the father, though. That was weird.
Now we need to talk to our girls like this. Be a woman. This is what it means to be a woman.
Good stuff. I loved this.

Kept waiting for him to bring up.... politics.

How High Can You Hear? [test]
11,700. "Most people under 50 can hear this."
I'm 62.
I'm practically youthful.
My avoidance of rock concerts and NASCAR races is paying off!

Let's fill up the court, indeed!
As Queen, I do hereby officially offer Princesshood to the great and glorious (and actually living pretty near me) @PlayhousePals. Wanna be crowned, Play?
We need a Merlin. A Wise One. One with benevolence and love and an all-seeing eye to look out for us all.
He knows who he is for me. He already looks out for us, for which I am grateful.
No need for any Knights in Armor, shining or otherwise. Mine is a peaceful queendom. (Well, striving for peace. Your Queen has some stuff to work on still.)
And my King? Paul Newman, please. Since this is fantasy, I can resurrect the dead and turn back time.
I would be delighted to be your Princess, my Queen!! Wouldn't turn down being a Princess!

I am not sure if we need a town drunk, but I think we can get that covered as well. We may have to snatch them up quickly, jail time, or dungeon time, is in their very near future. It is what happens to repeat offenders.
So, every Princess needs a partner in crime, so we should ask @PlayhousePals to be a Princess as well. There would be so much weed and weirdness up in our castle!!
Have any ideas of who else we can include in our bizarre court?

Always more than happy to clear up any porn confusion!
AH, that makes sense. Thanks for the explanation!

Oh. I see your confusion.
This is a regular bit on Nikki's show.
They hire real porn actors. The actors have earbuds. In the next room, watching on a monitor, are Nikki and Kristen.
Nikki and Kristen tell the actors what to say.
Some of the humor comes when the porn stars can't repeat or don't understand what they hear in their earbuds.
It's real porn stars doing what they do best -- and showing some real acting chops, too. They really sell those lines!
I wonder if I should put this explanation in the description of the video. You're a smart dude, and it wasn't clear to you....
Talked myself into it. I'm copying this to the vid description.
Yeah, I have seen them before, but I mean it's not like comedy central is going to release the porn vid. I wonder if they paid them to actually do the full scene and just used what they wanted for the skit, or if they made a deal with the video maker to just redub the audio later and release it as a regular video.

Oh yeah. They are. They are real porn actors.
*wtf *parody
one wonders if they were actually banging.

Oh. Like something I have seen here on occasion....
herrr derr.
It's been awhile though.
Makes sense!
Der is the English word for something really dumb, like "well duh" (obligatory dictionary reference - http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/dur )
So the der du jour is the dumb thing of the day. I don't think you could spell it as "dur" in French, or else it means hard or tough (like duro in Italian or durus in Latin).

Don't leave me hanging! What does it mean? (Or what did you deduce that it meant?)
Speaking of French, or in this case Franglais, my 10 year old came up with the phrase "der du jour"... and he swears that I told him the phrase, but I don't remember it. Some googling and reading the language discussion pages suggests that French youths would at least understand it, and might even use it themselves (there's at least one tweet out there using the phrase).

He's doing a game show. A celeb trivia thing.
I have tried watching it, but I can't.
I looked him up on Jimbo's big bag'o'trivia, and it says he's still doing television... just nothing that makes it over here.
