Karl Pilkington.

"An Idiot ABroad" just kills me. There is something about Karl that reminds me of Hairy Potter.

Re: Karl Pilkington.

funny you should mention this, i was watching clips on youtube just yesterday. i didn't like 'the Ricky Gervais show' cuz it seemed they were goofing on a borderline retard but this might be funny. haven't been able to catch it yet, it's on the science channel right?

I think it's the funniest thing I have ever seen. Not sure that Karl is a 'borderline retard'; I think it's part of what intrigues me. I just don't know what to make of Karl. Trying to figure out how his mind works just fascinates me.

Yes, it is on the Science Channel. They are running the first two episodes and a third new one tomorrow night.

This is one of my favorite clips from the China epsiode.


"The baby's choking." LOL. I love how Karl's hand starts to shake when he is pulling the toad out of his mouth.

This is a deleted scene from the China Episode.


"You don't pick out a food over what sort of feet it's got." LMAO

Re: Karl Pilkington.

More gems from Karl.

Karl is a fan of going to the toilet.


"John Wayne, dinnit he turn out to be gay?"


Karl seems to have a hellova time getting up on that horse even though the horse looks to be only about 14 hands. Also, I love how Karl is yelling at the horse to "Turn, turn, turn!!" Horses don't understand English and that horse is on the wrong lead to make a turn anyways.

Carnival and 'pant haters'.


I don't think Karl is actually stupid. I just think Karl has a different view of things and no filters. He just says what is on his mind.

I don't have very much patience for stupid people. I don't enojy the truly stupid clients at work ( emoticon ) and I don't like it when Keith acts stupid ( emoticon emoticon emoticon ).

Keith said something stupid to me tonight. He said "I don't suppose you know how to cut hair?" (in an accusatory manner). He's known me for over 20 years. I said "Have you ever had any suspicions that I went to cosmetology school in the last 20 years?"

He's been working so much he hasn't had time to get a haircut. Then he asked me to shave his head. Right, I'll get my dog clippers and get right on that.

I told him I could clip his head but then he said he didn't want to be completely shaved. The best my dog clippers could do would be 3/4 of an inch.

And never mind that my right arm has been in an immobilizer for the last week. He hasn't noticed that!

It's hard to try to learn how to do most things with your non-dominant hand. IF I had the use of my right arm and hand right now I would give the dogs a haircut. Reece has got some sort of Spanish mantilla thing going on at the back of her head and Hershey's eyebrows have grown so long that they look like horns on his head.

Keith told me to take them to a groomer to have them done. I said I didn't want to do that because I was worried that a dog groomer wouldn't know how to groom this breed and they might '[email protected]#$ them up'. LOL. These dogs couldn't look any more fucked up than they do right now.

All of those are brilliant, but I think Mexico wins it for the tequila slammer.

I wonder how much of it is an act, it takes brilliance to act so dumb.

That's what I tell myself, anyway. emoticon

I think the Mexico episode is my favorite though it's so hard to choose just one!

I'm so sad that there is only the final re-cap episode left to see. Ricky needs to talk Karl into going on some more trips. I don't think there is a chance in hell that Karl would agree to that given all of the horrible things Ricky and Stephen did to Karl during the trips of going to see 'the wondas'.

Something's open it's my heart
If something's missing it's when we're apart
If something's good it's when we're back together again
Nothing's wrong it's just insane
Nothing's right until you're back again.
