“A guy walks into a talent agency and says, ‘Boy, do I have an act for you…’”
Not desiring to taint the Whispering Wall with any more of my newfound knowledge, I stop there.
“And?” comes the voice in the other corner.
“No, that’s it.”
“Nuh uh.”
I laugh. No, I giggle. Like a blushing school girl who’s deeply ashamed at having misunderstood Bob Saget all these years. Forgive me, Bob. I didn’t know.
“Well, go on.”
“No! I can’t! There are children around. And besides, I’m a lady!”
“The ladies in the movie were some of the most vulgar! Carrie Fisher…” the rest of his sentence gets lost.
“Women.”
“What?”
“Women told the joke. Not ladies.”
“What’s the difference?”
“One is what sex you are and one is how you behave.” I’m full of crap and he knows it.
He says something else and I laugh and look over my shoulder at him, losing the last of his sentence in the bad reception. I notice tourists are milling around, waiting for their turns. I suddenly become very self aware and step away from the Whispering Wall before either of us says the punch line. We all know what it is by now anyway.
Except maybe for Eddie Izzard. He seemed a bit confused.
I just saw the movie a couple of night ago. It was great.
Glad to see this morning’s malaise was replaced with a bunch of belly laughs. Go, Fish!!
If you’re a lady it means you limit yourself to behave according to certain standards. I think I’ll stick to being a woman
You didn’t know about Bob Saget? I want to fuck Bob Saget, but I’m no lady.
Why am I totally confused by this post? Would I have to see the movie to get it?
You mentioned Eddie Izzard, though. That’s good enough for me.
Enlighten me on Bob Saget??? Or maybe I don’t want to know. :S
Well I just googled him… apparently he is both god AND satan. Hmmm.
ah ha! the whispering wall at grand central is one of my favorite spots in nyc! fun post, fish.
This Wikipedia article might help regarding both “The Aristocrats” and Bob Saget. For those that just have to know : )
I, too, missed something, but found it funny anyway. Simple minds….
I am no lady. But I love being a woman.
I’m no lady, but all woman.
There are still women out there who consider themselves “ladies?”
