Apr. 11th, 2014 07:46 amMy secret TV boyfriend got a bit of a promotion. I have really mixed feelings. On the one hand, I can see getting a little tired of the "well intentioned idiot" persona after 10 years. And David Letterman was a big influence on my sense of humor growing up. He's a little tame now, but he used to be quote wacky. This is one of my favorite bits (crappy quality because it's from the last century):
On the other hand - I loves me some satire. And the half hour format really lends itself to watching the following day at lunch or dinner.

I'm totally showing my age by saying I remember this ad campaign - an ad for coffee that features American football, Kurt Vonnegut, and Heart accompanied by an ELO soundtrack, proclaiming that coffee provides a "calm moment" - if that's not postmodern, I guess I still don't know what postmodern is.
As for my icon, OK, I know that The Doctor probably drinks tea - but if the above commercial can start with a voiceover saying "you're the new American society" while showing David Bowie, then nothing is safe.
