I first discovered the Strangers with Candy gang in their previous foray into television, Exit 57. The fact that Exit 57 isn’t out on DVD, and that all I have are poor-quality bootlegs, is outrageous (and probably illegal). Thankfully, I have the Strangers with Candy DVDs and can play them on a loop all day long. In last week’s QOTW post, I was droning on and on about the practical application of the endless supply of useless pop culture information in my head. This week’s quote is actually a very good example of that. Whether with family, friends, enemies or co-workers, whenever anyone asks me a question that I don’t know the answer to, instead of saying, “I don’t know” (and run the risk of getting slimed), I just say, “Fandango? Hobocamp? Ho…hobocamp!” The confusion, annoyance or glee it inspires in others is priceless! So, here’s the set-up. Jerri Blank is trying out for cheerleader and reaches the most difficult part of the audition:
Coach Wolf: Jerri, uh, what does V-I-C-T-O-R-Y spell? Jerri Blank: Fandango? Hobocamp? Ho…hobocamp!
-“The Blank Page,” Strangers with Candy
Is there anything in the world better than Amy Sedaris as Jerri Blank? I think not. In fact, let’s give away Strangers with Candy: The Complete Series on DVD to the first poster who can tell me the name of Jerri’s co-star in her Tijuana donkey show. Just post your answer in the comments section. Now, let’s watch the whole scene! Enjoy!
Oh, Damn it! I knew that one! Oh well… I just saw the SWC marathon last week. Mr. Jellineck is a hottie!
I usually respond “Uh… burritos, tacos… nacho supreme…” when someone says something and I don’t know how to respond to what I didn’t understand. I got that from a co-worker who I believe said it was from Beavis and Butt-head. I’ll stop rambling now.
