Oh man. I have pretty much just wasted my entire Saturday watching Pop-Up Video on VH-1 Classic. I loved that show back when it was on, man. It made me chortle and fulfilled my daily requirements for useless factoids, which I could then use to spice up dull conversations. Example:
Dude: Sooo....
Me: Sooo....
Dude: So...
Me: So, did you know there are 60 penguins living in San Francisco?
Dude: I'll be dashed! What you say is truly amazing and has revived our stagnant conversation. You are perhaps the most brilliant conversationalist I have ever chanced to come across in my journeys. Pray, tell me more of these penguins.
See? Instant conversation. Just add water. And, apparently, a bit of 19th century English foppery.
Discussion of recent topics in the news...
Blah, blah, blah, Martha Stewart, blah, blah, prison, blah, blah, heinous bitch, blah, blah, Michael Jackson, blah, blah, human booster shot, blah, blah, Emmanuel Lewis, blah, blah, nubile little boys, blah, blah, Travolta, bad movie, blah, China, blah, Taiwan, blah, Pope, blah.
There. Consider yourself educated.
