HEY HEY HEY! (that's my answer, y'all can figure it out)

― Eisbaer, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 08:03 (nineteen years ago)

Notorious BIG said it best: "Either you're slingin' crack rock, or you've got a wicked jump-shot." Nobody wants to work for it anymore. There's no honor in taking that after school job at Mickey D's, honor's in the dollar, kid. So I went the white boy way of slinging crack-rock: I became a stock broker.

― Dom Passantino, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 08:11 (nineteen years ago)

If I'm not mistaken Katie has remained catholic.

― nathalie, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 08:12 (nineteen years ago)

Eisbaer, Krusty the clown ?

My vote, I went for the long shot as i have interest in any of these people

― Ste, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 09:10 (nineteen years ago)

'no interest' dammit

― Ste, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 09:11 (nineteen years ago)

Chick Corea!

― Tuomas, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 10:25 (nineteen years ago)

Jenna Elfman is the wackiest. Well, saw an "interview" with her. She was mental. Completely off her rocker. I like how Scientologists defend themselves.

― nathalie, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 10:27 (nineteen years ago)

As a boy named Doug growing up in the 80s, there's only one way I can go with this.

― kingkongvsgodzilla, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 10:44 (nineteen years ago)

No option for "fuck 'em all, weirdos" no credibility.

― Pashmina, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 10:55 (nineteen years ago)

I like that other guy in My Name is Earl, Ethan Stucklee? I gather he's one too.

― Ned Trifle II, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 11:09 (nineteen years ago)

Elfman. I mean, with a name like that, you got that kookiness factor already built in.

― nathalie, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:21 (nineteen years ago)

NOT THE JIVE ACES!?!

whats a clam?

xxpost to sunny

― StanM, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:35 (nineteen years ago)

he's a stinky vagina?

― nathalie, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:39 (nineteen years ago)

but why?

― sunny successor, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:41 (nineteen years ago)

The term "clam", a pejorative slang term for Scientologists, is derived from a passage in L. Ron Hubbard's Scientology: A History of Man. In this passage, Hubbard asserts humans follow his notion of the "genetic line" of the "genetic entity", which include clams (as well as sloths, volcanoes, and a "sense of being eaten"), and certain human psychological problems descend from difficulties these clams experienced.

― StanM, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:46 (nineteen years ago)

I'm not sure whats behind the clam thing, I just have friends who are anti $ activists, and thats what they say. www.xenu.net etc.

― Trayce, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:48 (nineteen years ago)

Oh well or what Stan just said, heh.

noooooo not the Jive Aces (*throws away signed CD in disgust*)

― blueski, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:50 (nineteen years ago)

i already said that.

scientologist hate really makes me want to defend them.

― sunny successor, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:50 (nineteen years ago)

whenever I hear about a sleb being into this, and i didn't know, it's always a little heartbreaking, even if i was never a 'fan' of them really.

jason lee, laura prepon, leah rimini, noooo

― gff, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:52 (nineteen years ago)

oo..i forgot about donna

― sunny successor, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:53 (nineteen years ago)

for a second when "Elfman" wz mentioned I thought they meant D. I panicked that I had voted the wrong way.

― Curt1s Stephens, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:54 (nineteen years ago)

John Travolta?! NOOOOOOOO!

― latebloomer, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 13:58 (nineteen years ago)

OK srsly if D Elfman was an clam I'd give up.

― Trayce, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:00 (nineteen years ago)

Had to go with "eat my shorts" girl b/c my wife taught/coached her briefly.

― Rock Hardy, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:02 (nineteen years ago)

I'm voting for who I was most disappointed to find out was a friend of Xenu, and Erika Christensen would be total wifey material if not for that.

― Alex in Baltimore, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:06 (nineteen years ago)

jason lee

haha. big surprise.

can someone lock down the forest whitaker question?

― gabbneb, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:21 (nineteen years ago)

does the phrase "pilot inspektor" have any significance in Sc1ent0l0gy?

― Alex in Baltimore, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:25 (nineteen years ago)

"favorite" as in wd most like to approach with a sock o' manure?

― Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:27 (nineteen years ago)

this list really creeps me out.

― Curt1s Stephens, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:27 (nineteen years ago)

why? pretty much everyone on the list is obviously a weirdo.

― gabbneb, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:29 (nineteen years ago)

i think a more interesting list would be to see who "dabbled" in $cient0l0gy

― latebloomer, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:34 (nineteen years ago)

eddie deezen has my vote, now and forever

― get bent, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 15:13 (nineteen years ago)

does Futurama count as a "sitcom"

― Curt1s Stephens, Thursday, 21 June 2007 14:53 (nineteen years ago)

I don't think I'll include cartoons. Honestly I was thinking only females but it seemed wrong to exclude Bonaduce.

― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 21 June 2007 14:59 (nineteen years ago)

I'd be down with the Bhai thing.

― Bill Magill, Thursday, 21 June 2007 15:18 (nineteen years ago)

I haven't noticed any bad acting, but then again I don't have my "good acting/bad acting" checklist handy when I watch That '70s Show

look, I dont demand Meryl Streep's Versatility or something, but haven't you noticed something even beyond the stilted, one-note badness that usually accompanies sitcoms? A kind-of almost FEAR in her eyes when she speaks her lines?

― kenan, Thursday, 21 June 2007 15:31 (nineteen years ago)

wrong again

― sunny successor, Thursday, 21 June 2007 16:06 (nineteen years ago)

whitaker? anyone? what was tad's post about?

Hollywood, like the Britishes, is biased against gingers

pls don't let that - term - cross the pond

― gabbneb, Thursday, 21 June 2007 16:16 (nineteen years ago)

gabbneb have you not seen South Park's Cartman-ginger-nazis episode

guys GUYS, can we focus on finding this Scientology music video featuring Isaac Hayes And His Sexy Harem Of Sitcom Actresses?

― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 21 June 2007 17:01 (nineteen years ago)

gabbneb have you not seen South Park's Cartman-ginger-nazis episode

I cahn't imahgine what would give you the impression that I would ever deign to watch South Park

― gabbneb, Thursday, 21 June 2007 17:08 (nineteen years ago)

Sorry to keep spamming this thread, I'm gonna post once more to clarify my position and then let this drop because I'm worried kenan's gonna think I like some bad actress for her big boobs or something (which I don't, I don't think she's v. attractive personally): compared to the rest of the T7S cast LP isn't a very good actress, that's true, but the character she plays is low-key enough that it's not a huge deal; I just like Donna compared to, say, the perpetual irritatingness of Jackie & Fez. And as I said on the other thread she's a good foil to Eric's insecurity. I don't like T7S after the first season or two, after that it goes to shit.

― Curt1s Stephens, Thursday, 21 June 2007 17:14 (nineteen years ago)

ok ok. I think you're fantastic.

The B'hai temple is amazingly beautiful, and you can see it out of my gf's window from 4 miles away. On a sunny day in the spring... wow.

― kenan, Thursday, 21 June 2007 17:19 (nineteen years ago)

I just like Donna compared to, say, the perpetual irritatingness of Jackie & Fez

:(

jackie is my hero

― sunny successor, Thursday, 21 June 2007 17:25 (nineteen years ago)

I can't please anybody around here ;_;

― Curt1s Stephens, Thursday, 21 June 2007 17:26 (nineteen years ago)

Fez isn't especially annoying. Jackie is v v annoying.

― gabbneb, Thursday, 21 June 2007 17:38 (nineteen years ago)

Jackie is annoying the first couple of seasons, but then she becomes a sympathetic character.

― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 21 June 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

that's when she becomes the most annoying though!!! I liked her better as a self-absorbed brat than a self-absorbed brat with feelings

― Curt1s Stephens, Thursday, 21 June 2007 18:44 (nineteen years ago)

Hopefully Bell will renounce Scientology when she gets the word she swept this poll.

― Bill Magill, Thursday, 21 June 2007 19:12 (nineteen years ago)

Or she'll take it as a mandate that her Scientology has been endorsed.

― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 21 June 2007 19:19 (nineteen years ago)

hahaha i see this has been done already: http://www.askmen.com/women/votes_300/302_scientology_sensations.html

― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 21 June 2007 19:46 (nineteen years ago)

On Catherine Bell:

"One of the hottest Scientologists this side of L. Ron Hubbard..."

L. Ron Hubbard was hot? This makes no sense.

― Will M., Thursday, 21 June 2007 19:53 (nineteen years ago)

Fair point, Alex.

Does anything having to do with Scientology make sense?

― Bill Magill, Thursday, 21 June 2007 19:55 (nineteen years ago)

haha yeah that line was real WTF. shoulda been something like "Hotter than the volcano where Xenu murdered all those Thetans"

― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 21 June 2007 19:57 (nineteen years ago)

Marisol Nichols got a much bigger role in "In Justice"

― Heave Ho, Thursday, 21 June 2007 20:01 (nineteen years ago)

Bell's pictures on that askmen.com are smokin

― Bill Magill, Thursday, 21 June 2007 20:15 (nineteen years ago)

when do we get to do a poll on celebrity christians, call them weirdos and say how our lives were ruined when we found out they were god lovers?

― sunny successor, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:12 (nineteen years ago)

Kirk Cameron would win

― Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:13 (nineteen years ago)

why bother, we all know Mel Gibson would win

― milo z, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:13 (nineteen years ago)

though I basically agree with sunny - there's a level of fear/anger generated by Scientologist celebs that's just bizarre. They're a cult, ok, they believe wacky shit, ok - but why do other people care?

― milo z, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:14 (nineteen years ago)

well how could anyone overlook how similar Xtianity and Scientology, what with both being founded by failed sci-fi writers/convicted felons/tax-evaders amirite.

― Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:16 (nineteen years ago)

arrrgh "how similar Xtianity and Scientology ARE"

― Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:17 (nineteen years ago)

The Church of Latter-Day Saints has such a long and storied past, and no oddball shenanigans in its history.

(also: transubstantiation, snake-handling evangelicals, heaven, hell, demons, spirits, etc. - not, in truth, that much stranger than Xenu)

― milo z, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:19 (nineteen years ago)

fwiw personally my views on the Mormon church are well documented on ILX and bear some similarity to my views on Scientology

― Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:20 (nineteen years ago)

The Church of Latter-Day Saints has such a long and storied past, and no oddball shenanigans in its history.

You're kidding, right?

― Mr. Que, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

I believe that's what the kids call "sarcasm"

Let's not forget the future coming of the Messiah to Springfield, Mo. I should get a real estate liscence there if the Mormons are right.

― Bill Magill, Thursday, 21 June 2007 21:34 (nineteen years ago)

They're a cult, ok, they believe wacky shit, ok - but why do other people care?

I suppose it could be the getting celebrities to pay $$$$$$$$$$ to reach their highest levels, and therefore funding all the lower-level crap which sometimes involves abusing their adherents to death, but I could be wrong.

Jeez, What's up with Scientology & the cast of My Name is Earl? I thought that show dealt in Buddhist doctrines, which I now realize must be code for Thetans. Very very sneaky..

on the upside James Packer (was Australia's richest man) has apparently left
