I Love PAs

[Sad Max]

Specifically, really young PAs with a poor grasp of classic rock.

I'm working away in my office, and "Mama Told Me Not To Come" (Three Dog Night) is blasting on my speakers, and our PA walks by and says, wow, it sounds like Vietnam in there. Isn't that (hums a few bars of 'Paint it Black' by the Stones)?

So I explain that no, it's not, but yes, if she meant to suggest that I am mired in a hopeless cause with no particular reason to hope for an exit strategy, then yes, it actually is rather like Vietnam, in my office.

I am on the fence as to whether this is a plausible reason to make my first catch as "official" Political Police. I'll get back to you. :grin:

If so, you're about 35 years late...

:grin: I meant on calling you out for bringing politics onto the board. Anyway, PAs...

That's what he meant about being 35 years too late...rogar-BigGrin(DBG)

HAhahaha

 

[Mattykins]

Aww, poor PA. But very nice line.

 

[Grug]

35 years ago?! I guess everything that old is 'classical' now! :grin:

Three Dog Night was on classic rock stations when I was in high school in the '80s. Now, the '80s are classic rock. And I occasionally hear some Nirvana and Soundgarden on "classic rock" stations, too.

 

[Sad Max]

Do we need a new category?

Paleolithic Rock...?

That's not right. Of course, it had to happen as time passes.

Before you know it, they'll be playing M.C. Hammer on "classic rock" stations...:shocked:

They shouldn't be playing M.C. Hammer on any stations.rogar-Happy(DBG):

Old doesn't automatically equal classic. There's a glut of old crap out there.

Amen. I think what constitutes classic is this: somewhat old as well as freakin' amazing. Nick out.

Amen? Are you trying to get religious on us, Mr. Political Police? :cheesy:

(Kidding, of course...)

Haha! Very good...the ironic thing is, that is the last thing I would ever do to you guys. Next time I will use "I concur" or "WORD!"

I'd say 30% of cultural references on set from before the 90s go right over my head.

Having been on set with you I can attest to that.

If it makes you feel better it instantly makes everyone on set feel ancient when you can say things like
"I don't remember that movie really well... I think I was like 10 when it came out."

Well then I guess it evens out.:happy:

note: I couldn't find an appropriate smiley face.

I probably would have chosen one of these, but I will accept your choice.
