I’m pretty sure back in high school (in the 60′s) he was voted “most likely to have a prime number immediately follow his name, like with no space or nuthin’”

Well, it is hard to beat square cheeseburgers and a never-nude. That’s harsh competition.

I’m sorry. I disagree. Bad Monkey is way cooler than some red-headed brat with braids. (The burgers are nommable though.)

Why do you have a problem with Dave Thomas being dead? You’re a corpse bigot.

Now that’s a very fun and clever tribute. Happy Birthday, Dave2!

I’d be a lot more impressed if I knew who any of these other Daves were. Why couldn’t you have used an astoundingly talented and well-known Dave… like David Caruso?!?
Reply
I was just going to ask why you did not compare him to David Caruso!

Yeah, but how would he do against David Letterman? Hmm. Or Dave Chappelle? Hmm.

Oh, I think Dave2 could totally kick David Caruso’s ass. He probably rocks the shades way better to boot. Winner: Dave2!
What if we put all those Daves in a jello wrestling match? Including Caruso, Letterman, and Chappelle? Damn, that’s hawt.

Anyone who thinks Ann Coulter should die is a winner in my book, hands down.

How do we know that Dave2 doesn’t have a six-pack? Has anyone seen him without a shirt? Does a six-pack of Guinness in the fridge count?

Shouldn’t being alive be considered an automatic win???

Yes, I think we need topless photos of Dave2 in order to see evidence of a missing 6 pack.
Otherwise, great tribute!!
Happy Birthday, Dave!!!!! :heartbeat:

Wow. 63? He’s really mature for his age.
P.S. Really? You passed up Dave Matthews for Dave from Wendy’s? And King Dave (id) from the Bible for that sad, over hyped statue?

I totally expected a David Bowie comparison. I am completely disappointed that you missed that.:crying:
But yeea on Dave Thomas and Happy Birthday Dave2

Happy Birthday, Dave2! :sexytime:
Did you know that “Wendy” went to the University of Florida at the same time I did? She did not, in fact, look like the sign. Much.

A six pack is the least of the notable features of the Statue of David.

I love the way David Cross and Dave Thomas beat out Dave and yet, not so much the cultural awesomeness of the Statue of David.

I think that should be his slogan “20% Gay.”
