Dear God, and now Jay Leno...

[KingOfLostSouls]

"Selling Doritos on TV? What a fuckin' whore. And not even when he needed the money either, you know? If you're a young actor, I'll look the other way, but the guy makes $3 million a year, he decides to hock Doritos to make more money. You don't got enough money you fucking whore? You've got to sell snacks to bovine America now? It's Satan fucking him in the ass on national TV man . . . fuck . . ."

1. Ahhh Bill Hicks was the man

[Kalyke]

2. Maybe it's a favor.

I do believe Leno got his "TV start" selling Dorito's in ads.

Can anyone verify?

Or is this an old quote?

[UTUSN]

3. He pitched Doritos years ago, and I don't think as a start OR that he needed the $ n/t

[DainBramaged]

6. His Tonight show contract with NBC was for $10 million a year

not including the backdoor money from GM to support his garage/museum

[ClearPresentDanger]

10. "Crunch all you want, we'll make more"

As I recall the ad campaign ran while he was guest hosting for Johnny, he was exclusive guest host for about a year. IIRC

4. You mean the Doritos that are made with GMO corn?

Pass, thanks . . . .

[graywarrior]

5. Who, if anyone, will watch the new Leno show?

God, go retire already.

[DainBramaged]

7. Well, If I rasied my hand, would you be angry with me?

I am semi-awake at 10, and have already watched KO once.

[graywarrior]

8. Rent porno instead.

:evilgrin:

[DainBramaged]

12. I don't think so........

I stopped going out with Mary Fist a long time ago

[graywarrior]

16. LOL!

Hey, watch Leno then post here whether he was worth it or not. Who am I to judge what you do or do not watch?

[DainBramaged]

18. ............

:hug:

[undeterred]

9. I just can't work up any moral outrage over this.

Sorry.

[zonkers]

11. Not even for Ranch Dressing flavored?

[redqueen]

20. Butbutbut... it's *Bill Hicks*!

You're supposed to start falling all over yourself with praise immediately upon reading his name.

It's so deep and meaningful... and new. Nobody ever did that bit before, ever. Nut uh.

[MineralMan]

13. Uh...an actor and TV personality is a whore because

he appeared in Doritos commercials? Really? Uff da! What do you do to make a living?

How strange...

[zonkers]

14. NICE TRY CHIN BOY.. but there is but one... true... Doritos spokesman, the late, Mr. Schrieber...

RIP Avery. As a kid, I loved you more than Ginger and Mary Ann.

15. Well I am sure the fact that he regularly crucified republican policy

is not the REAL object of your ire.:sarcasm:

[valerief]

21. I watched a bit of him with Mrs. Greenspan today. Leno was smooth and

good and made fun of the scare over the prez's ed speech. Mrs. Greenspan was choppy and dumbstruck and awful, as usual. I can't watch her for more than a couple minutes.

[pscot]

17. So you think he's compromised his artistic purity?

Get a life.

[valerief]

19. You don't mean Stephen Colbert's beloved sponsor Doritos?

Or is it Fritos? Or are they both the same thing? (I don't eat that crap myself, so I wouldn't know.)

[Stevenmarc]

22. As far as non-issue issues to feign indignation over, this doesn't make the needle flinch

[woo me with science]

23. Maybe he likes Doritos. nt
