My how the mighty have fallen. Anyone see the Burger King comercial with Darius Rutckers formerly or still I'm not sure of Hootie and the Blowfish, in it. He's freaking playing a black singing cowboy strumming a guitar and singing about the new Bacon Chedder Ranch burger. I so feel for the guy. :lol

 

[The Faceless Master]

that's him?

i thought it was just some random guy

Nobody held his hand

 

[Loki]

Yeah, it's even crazier when you think that they had like 2 or 3 multi-platinum albums in a row in the mid-late 90's, and now he's reduced to shilling for fast food joints to put food on on the table (pun intended). ;(

 

[Loki]

:lol

There best song was easily "Let Her Cry."

 

[fallout]

Forget all that.

The important question to ask here is: Which one's Hootie?

 

[Diablos]

Hootie was the guy on VH1 that would aggressively state that "Just because the band is called Hootie and the Blowfish does not mean I'm Hootie. MY NAME IS NOT HOOTIE." He was pissed. I remember.

If you call the band Hootie and the Blowfish, people are gonna assume the lead singer wants to go by "Hootie," dur.

IMGONNNA LOVE YUO
THE BESSTHAT
THE BESSTHATICAYYYNNN.

Sorry, I had to get that out of my system.

 

[impirius]

Darius Rucker is his name!

And Hootie was cool!

 

[White Man]

A couple years back, they were playing the Bloomsburg Fair in PA. I swear to god, every time I walked past the bandstand "I Only Wanna Be with You" was being played. They had to have played it like 6 times, or done an extended 40 minute space jam version of it. I buried my sorrow by consuming mounds of deep-fried oreos and laughing at this Haitian midget in the freak show.

 

[android]

Those chicks were pretty hot.

 

[shoplifter]

I saw them -open- for Toad the Wet Sprocket in high school.

 

[Loki]

"Windmills" and "Walk on the Ocean" by Toad the Wet Sprocket were awesome songs. Man, this thread is bringing back some old memories. :lol

 

[keiichi]

Those chicks were pretty hot.

One of those girls was Vida, the ..er..booty queen

She even had her name on her shorts

 

[AntoneM]

you know, whatever burgerking does it will never diminish my love of the whopper.

 

[Jotaro]

It's rare that a GAF thread really makes me ROTFLMAO, but this time I just can't help but :lol

I remember buying (for like five dollars) their latest album (the first in nearly ten years if I recall correctly), and I found it so boring I think I fell asleep. That, and the last song was on of the most ridiculous mainstream songs I have ever heard.

 

[Rorschach]

This should be titled "Hootie and the Burger King"

 

[White Man]

Man, this thread is bringing back some old memories. :lol

It sure is. . .

<sigh>

Our paths will cross again someday, Lina. She couldn't talk either. I think she may have been trying to buy drugs off me. Or deep-fried oreos.

 

[Guzim]

Hootie & the Blowfish rocked.

The video for Only Wanna Be With You was awesome.

 

[Archaix]

I think she may have been trying to buy drugs off me. Or deep-fried oreos.

Is there really a difference, though? Outside of the fact that few drugs are as bad for you as are deep fried oreos.

And, perhaps more importantly...you saved a picture of a midget you saw at a fair?

STOP JUDGING ME!

NOTE: That picture is also like 5 years old.

Oh, Okay. So you've saved a picture of a midget that you saw at a fair for the past five years. You know...you're not coming out much better now than you were before. Maybe we should let this one go.

I mean, yeah, PA is boring, but that's one weird memory to cling to.

 

[White Man]

Actually, I only saw her there one year.

She had this Mountain Dew bottle, and it was bigger than her. Then we found her picture in the paper, and things got progressively creepier.

I bet she gets drunk off like half a beer.
