Can you read a brief article in the Atlantic about the Verizon spokesman now? Good. (Should I prepare my speech for the Lazy Jokes Awards now, or is that kind of against the whole point of winning?)

  1. That’s weird, I heard that, after being known for his catchphrase in the commercials, he couldn’t get any serious acting gigs anymore and had to quit acting to go be a bartender for a catering company.

    Or was that the “dude you’re getting a Dell” guy?

  2. Speaking of ubquitous commercials did you know that the All State Mayhem guy is Dennis Duffy?

  3. It should be an honour just to be nominated.

  4. First I have to finish Jill Lepore’s 30,000 word profile on the Geico gecko in this week’s New Yorker.

    • Seriously, who reads that magazine? Mummies? (They have a lot of time.)

      (This joke made sense in my head. Out you go, little joke! Out into the world!)

  5. A few months ago, he attended his grandmother’s funeral. As her body was being lowered into the ground, he heard the hushed voice of a family friend: “Can you hear me now?”

    - this is so depressing….. and yet, given the same opportunity, who knows?

  6. Mans and I don’t like this guy.

  7. This article has left me forever creeped out, now that I know that the Verizon Guy bought a house in my hometown.

  8. Are we having fun yet?

  9. “Worried about the publicity—and the questions that might ensue if it came out that the actor playing Test Man was gay—he declined to file a report.”

    I can’t see how him being gay would cause any questions. Would it some how call into question the validity of the advertisements?

    Is there anyone out there who can help connect the dots for me?
