C'mon, Tom, what would it take to lift the ban on Spike?

[fletcher munson]

Using the word "shmuck" was a little much, but where else you gonna hear gems like "Bill OhReally"?  Tell me that much.

To be honest, Spike's calls kinda bore me. Sorry Spike. I refrain from calling in for fear of bogging down my all-time favorite radio show. Spike could stand to adopt a bit of a that philosophy from time to time.

short leash?  Spike's a personal hero of mine.  Remember the time he said he wrote that book, but he didn't?  Well that happened to me, and it didn't end well.  Watching him get caught and handle that situation with aplomb made me want to try again.  I owe a lot to the guy.  He's got a certain finesse about him.

Is aplomb equivalent to psychotic denial?

Oh, we'd manage.

Oh, I wouldn't know - I rarely frequent the scifi section of the library.

Come on, Spike is weird and tries very hard to be Spike, but it's funny. Leave the little fellow alone.

Spike is getting trounced in the polling! Now I feel a little sorry for him. I do admit I like him more than I do LDP (who isn't doing nearly as bad at his own polling), but that isn't saying much.

I never found Spike funny. However I now have lost respect for him. On Shut Up, Weirdo the hosts seemed to like Spike and welcomed his calls. On the Best Show Tom hangs up on him half the time  and mocks him the other half of the time. However Spike chose the guy who makes fun of him over the people who like him just because the Best Show is more popular and gets more listeners. He's like the school nerd who would rather be picked on by the jocks than play  D&D with the other nerds.

That's a lot of interesting assumptions you make about Spike's motivations. When did you talk with him?

[dave from knoxville]

I can't wait to hear what motivates me to call in.

Tom Scharpling:

How dare you defy me, Spike!
I will destroy you.

[Eric Fishlegs]

I can't wait to hear what motivates me to call in.

I don't know anything about your motivations, homeboy.

Maybe you're right and I am making unfounded assumptions, but if he's not calling in because he enjoys being an extremely low level celebrity then I don't know what his purpose is in calling.

So, fishhhhhhlegs, is Spike calling, or not calling SUW?  If he is, there's no way to get back on TBS.  Sorry, I would check myself, but I can't stomach the thought of listening to those two. yech!

No kidding. I've given SUW three chances and I just couldn't take it.
