-> ''[[Music/MidnightOil They]] toiled in the underground for a while. They ''really'' started hitting it big in 1982, and by "big," I mean Australia big. Like, there's a whole music scene down there that we know absolutely nothing about. I mean, my image of Australian music has been largely formed by...well, [[Music/MenAtWork this]], but that's the cartoon version of Australia; there's a lot more going on down there. Like, you know how Australia's so isolated and weird that its environment brought us such oddities as the platypus and the echinda and the drop bear? Well, that's a lot like what's going on down there musically. There's a lot of stuff down under that just doesn't make it up over.''

Joke after joke how [[RacistGrandma blacks haven't contributed to society and can't think for themselves]], but they looked at me as if I was an out-of-touch, old fool! I made solid references to things [[SmallReferencePools from the 50's and 60's]] in a room full of young comedy fans. How does that go wrong?!"''

->''"It feels like talking about Creator/GeorgeLucas at this point is like beating a dead horse, but he's just endlessly fascinating. To see him on ''The Daily Show'' and talking about the film as if it's some socially-important thing, and saying that 'This is the first all-black action movie.' He comes across as incredibly out of touch; you're like, "There's been fuckin' decades of black action movies! There was [[{{Blaxploitation}} an entire subgenre of it]] in the seventies!""''

->''"Flattop has moved from new wave ’80s hits back to the ’70s, as he now sings 'Disco Inferno' while attempting to fill our hero with hot lead. I’m reassured that Dick is completely unfamiliar with the lyrics to these extremely popular song; it’s a well known fact that the music industry is dominated by communists and degenerates, and it’s best to avoid the radio altogether as a result."''

->Wrestling/SamoaJoe was a beast. Wrestling/AJStyles really was phenomenal. The X-Division actually existed. What has it turned into since he took over? [[GloryDays The 80’s reunion tour. WCW 2.0.]] He actually reinvented the N.W.O. in TNA. Nobody cares. Will Hogan pull the plug on it? Nope. His ego is too big. Have you ever listened to Hogan on ''Bubba the Lovesponge''? He is a clueless, dense human being. Did you see him on the David Hasselhoff [[TheRoast roast]] that aired on Comedy Central? The man is [[DiscoDan just like the Hoff]].
