How can he father children for me if he is gay?


Maybe you could wear a fake mustache?!

Either PCP or possessed by Richard Simmons...

OMG is that the Korean Richard Simmons??

That Richard Simmons line absolutely kills me. Arnold is really just a big kid. Haha.

My pleasure, that is one is probably my favorite clip on the sift.

If anyone is wondering why 'A$$GR@V33 the Movie' was directed by 'blanfist', it's because blankfist demanded an Alan Smithee credit on it. He hated the way the studio cut out 20 minutes of the love scene with him and Richard Simmons. He claimed that cutting that scene down to only 50 minutes made the film "too mainstream and lacking the emotional aspect of sharing ass gravy".

Reminds me a lot of Steve Martin in the 70's.

A lot of you are too young to remember the 70's. A lot of you were too stoned to remember the 70's. But they were there and we're not totally sure why.

In the 70's, SNL was actually funny; the Tonight Show had Carson and people used to get shitface drunk and go on Mike Douglas and Merv Griffin. And there was also Charles Nelson Riley and Paul Lynde and they were both so gay that Richard Simmons used to stamp his right foot and yell, "GOOD GOD, YOU SISSIES, GIVE IT A REST ALREADY!"

Also, if I catch any of you damned kids on my lawn again, I swear I'm calling the cops. Now where's my Reader's Digest and Clapper?

Might be true if Richard Simmons hadn't made it to TV...

A lot of my favorites are already mentioned here, like HHGTTG, Pratchett, Vonnegut, Simmons, so here a few others, since I don't want to sound repetitive (in no particular order):
* Winston Churchill - The Second World War
* Walter Moers - The Thirteen and a Half Lives of Captain Bluebear
* Scott Adams - The Dilbert principle
* Charlotte Chandler - Hello, I must be going
* Frederick Brooks - The mythical man-month

Thanks, I'll give Simmons a go. Looking for my next good author to work through at the moment anyway.

I've heard of it, but haven't tried it, thanks for the recommendation. The Gothic nature of Revelation Space always reminded me a bit of Dan Simmons books.

SRD: I like Revelation Space too - it's a weird but effective combination of gothic and space opera.

Do you know Neal Ashers "Polity" series? You might like it. Somewhat more blood and gore, but a well thought out universe and entertaining stories.

1. Midnight at the Well of Souls and the Well World novels - Jack L. Chalker (This is the series that got me started on sci-fi.) 1-5 are the best. The later novels were disappointing.

2. Hyperion and the rest of the Cantos series - Dan Simmons (you cried at the end of the last book didn't you Netrunner.)

3. 1984 - George Orwell

4. Caesar - Colleen McCullough

5. Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card

Hard to pick just five:

1. Hyperion and the rest of the Hyperion Cantos series by Dan Simmons
   
2. Marooned in Realtime by Vernor Vinge (though everything else he's written could easily have taken this spot)
   
3. Altered Carbon by Richard K. Morgan (and any other Takeshi Kovacs novel)
   
4. Footfall by Larry Niven -- IMO the best he ever wrote
   
5. Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke
   

• The City and the Stars by Arthur C. Clarke
  
• Accelerando by Charles Stross
  
• Pandora's Star and Judas Unchained by Peter F. Hamilton
  
• Iron Sunrise by Charles Stross
  
• Virtually anything by Robert J. Sawyer (particularly the "Neanderthal Parallax" trilogy)
  
• Snow Crash and Diamond Age by Neal Stephenson, though I'm with dag, everything that's followed has been disappointing
  
• Domesday Book by Connie Willis
  
• To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis
  
• The Golden Age Trilogy by John C. Wright
  
• Any short story by Michael Swanwick (particularly "The Radiant Doors" -- dft, there's another dystopia to be found in that one)
