Re: Shaun of the Dead

White Lines (the song Shaun and Ed try to get the zombie to sing along to, it's an American song but was really popular in the UK in the 80s)-

^ I've always thought that the Muppter Song  Mahna Mahna from 1969 woulda worked as well.  smile  - well with a little tweaking.

Teague: "In the chat, Pavlich says the song is White Lines by Funkmaster Flash."

Trey: "Is that a British song, or is it American?"

Teague: "Ummm...In the chat, Pavlich says really racist things, constantly."

I messed up and said "FUNKmaster" when what I meant to say was "GRANDmaster". But what do I know? Apparently, I'm racist as fuck!

...Next up, why Black people smell different! smile

Re: Shaun of the Dead

I'm confused as to why any of that could be seen as racist.

Although, I have no clue what Pav was saying in the chat......... wink

You mean "Mah Nà Mah Nà", the jazz-pop ditty written for an Italian sexploitation film about Swedish swingers and made popular by the Muppets?

Mind the Gap

If you go to any country, go to England, so fantastic.

"White Lines" is a Duran Duran song, I'm assuming sampled by Funk Master Flash.

Maybe, but not standing clear of the closin doors is a good way to remove the head or destroy the brain.

When I first went to New York/New Jersey, I was amused that my fellow elevator passengers would actually gasp when I stuck my arm in the closing doors to force them to open for someone else.

However, upon trying that with a subway car I was trying to catch, I discovered why New Yorkers do not stick their arms between closing doors. Subway doors are manually operated by a transit employee who does not give a shit if you walk around with black rubber scrape marks all down your sleeve for the rest of the day or without an arm at all, for that matter.

I can't tell if this this is a legitimate New Yorker douchebag thing or just a cultural difference, because it's just plain ol' common courtesy to hold the elevator door up here... and I almost never use the button, that's what I have arms for.

Also have been to NYC and found the people delightful, despite the reputation.

They do talk funny though (Southern irony)

We need one more quote for Project Halp, then it's done. Anyone remember a great line or two from this ep?

Wrong way round, actually, the Duran Duran version is a cover of the Grandmaster Flash song.  smile

Re: Shaun of the Dead

"Slept Through the Apocalypse" trope but nobody mentioned the classic Twilight Episode "Time Enough at Last"? It's one of the most classic/earliest examples. smile

Also riffed by Futurama.
