Yup. Deb Grabien played it for me and I ran right out and got a copy. The Lottery Song is one of the great happy boppy songs, up there with If I Had $1,000,000.
Simon: Captain's a good fighter, he must know how to handle a sword. Zoe: I think he knows which end to hold.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
How did I miss this show?!?!?! VH-1?
Yes. It was so awesome, I watched most of it twice.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I was channel surfing and came across the video and they had actors miming to the all the dialogue in the song. I thought it was a parody until the very end.
Oh, is that what that is? I spent a very confused thirty seconds watching it a few days ago.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Bet they didn't have the gem from 1971, Nilsson's "You're breaking my heart, you're tearing it apart, so fuck you"
My mom (76) loves this song.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Why, God, WHY?!? Emboldened by my viewing of Return of the King tonight, I went out and ate at a new Irish pub that opened near me. That's ate, not drank. Clearly my ancestors fled from Ireland back in the 19th century in search of the much tastier English cuisine.
I now know in my heart that Guinness was perfected in a desperate attempt to do away with the need for solid food altogether.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
For context, I'm watching Spooks. If you're flirting with a woman, and you're reasonably sure she's into it, and then she leans over and whispers "I want to taste you." -- it's a done deal, right? You can go into the next room and just schrump like bunnies?

Family Guy showed us that the irish were a much advanced civilization.....

Fentons! Perkins, you're in Oakland? I haven't been to Fentons in ten years, but I remember, oh yes.
Sigh. Fentons.
