Wursterisms
« on: April 14, 2008, 10:32:54 PM »
Shall we revive this thread from the old messageboard with new and old Wursterisms?

"Say it again" when Tom shows any hint of agreement/respect for him.

Getting AP Mike's name wrong.

Philla-dummy, Grateful-dummy, SanFran-dummy etc.

"Don't judge."

"Yeah, why?"

WFMU is a high school radio station.

Claiming Tom uses a voice modulator.
"You want me to recognize you and I won't. I won't acknowledge you! I deny you. So you keep begging and begging. The door is slammed on you. I want nothing to do with you. You will die unrecognized by me."

Wait, whuuuuuuuut?

Funny heights - 4'8", for example.

Inappropriate and braggy sexual disclosures.

Death threats.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Confusing a band for a person.

From 2005/08/02:

JW - Who's he?
Tom- Who's who?
JW- Minor Threat.

There are other examples of this, but I can't remember any right now.

"Are you strapped in....do you have your helmet on?"

"I'm going to turn this place into a car wash"

"You don't talk to me that way, I talk to YOU that way!"

References to "doing rails"

"You don't know what you're talking about!"

Yes, classic!

Another classic: "Can you send me a JPEG?"

"Wait - I'm not on the air, am I?" gets me every time.

Handburgers.

Threatening Tom through song. ("Bam-bam-bam-bam, buh-bam-bam-bam-bam...I'm gonna kill your face.")
It ain't ego, it's my love for you.

"Don't judge."

In more than a few recent calls, this is often said "don't judge me", which is hilarious to me for some reason.

References to "spank mags."

It's "Yeah, why?" and all of its variations that kill me each and every time.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

Alternately: references to "stroke books".

It's been a while since I've heard one, but also: really unwieldy URLs.

Let's not forget all the references to cocaine:

- The white lady
- Rails
- "A very expensive ski trip"
- The Conductor
"Son, there's a thin line between crazed and rabid"
