Bio
Just look at us. Everything is backwards, everything is upside down. Doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, psychiatrists destroy minds, scientists destroy truth, major media destroys information, religions destroy spirituality and governments destroy freedom.” ― Michael Ellner ----------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- "We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine, and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during these years. But the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government... The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries." - David Rockefeller, Speaking in June, 1991 meeting in Baden, Germany"---------------------------- -"The scientific community would come down on me in no uncertain terms if I said the world had cooled from 1998. OK it has but it is only 7 years of data and it isn't statistically significant." - UN Scientist Phil Jones to scientist John Christy July 5th 2005--------------------------------------

The Dysfunctional Family Feud

Rate: 10 Flag

 

“…OK, we’re back with acting royalty on the Feud, the Cranfords and the Lohmans. When we left off, neither team had scored so Jean and Arthur, come on up!”

 

“We surveyed the audience. The top 6 answers are on the board. Name something you do when you’re upset. Jean?”

 

“Beat my kids.”

 

“Do we have ‘Beat your kids?’....Oh, I’m sorry, Jean. Arthur, it’s up to you. Something you do when you’re upset. The top answers are on the board.”

 

“Get drunk.”

 

“Do we have drink? Yes, number 6 answer. Ok you want to take it or pass?”

 

“We’ll pass, Chuck.”

 

“Ok, Donny, It’s your turn. Name something you do when you’re upset.”

 

“Listen to Judy Garland and cry.”

 

“Listen to Judy Garland and cry! Oh, I’m sorry. I was sure that was up there. Jess, it’s your turn. Something you do when you’re upset.”

 

“Attempt suicide.”

 

“Attempt suicide! And the board says…Oh, I’m sorry. No. Two strikes. Rick, something you do when you’re upset.”

 

“Shoot heroin?”

 

“Do we have shoot heroin! Oh, I’m afraid not. The Lohmans will get a chance to steal. Lonny, something you do when you’re upset. Top answers are on the board.”

 

“Wrap my car around a tree?”

 

“Wrap your car around a tree! I’m sorry. And the Cranfords win this round! Stay tuned while we take a short break.”

 

 I have enough problems in life without having to worry about static cling….. 

 

“Ok We’re back. Nancy and Tom come on up. Top 7 answers are on the board. Name something you do when your boss fires you. Tom?”

 

“Make terroristic threats.”

 

“Do we have Make terroristic threats? Oh, no. Nancy, something you do when your boss fires you? Top 7 answers are on the board.”

 

“Steal his client list and get a new pimp.”

 

“Do we have steal his client list and get a new pimp? Oh, again, I’m sorry. No. The Cranfords went last time, so the Lohmans are up this time.  Susan, name something you do when your boss fires you.”

 

“Case a convenience store and come back after midnight.”

 

“Do we have Case a convenience store? Ugg, no.  Billy, something you do when your boss fires you. Top 7 answers are on the board.”

 

“Bust a cap in his ass?”

 

“Did we do that already? Terroristic threats? No? Ok. Do we have Bust a cap in his ass? Oh, I’m afraid not. And the Cranfords have a chance to steal. Jean. For the money. Something you do when your boss fires you.”

 

“Stalk him and cook his dog.”

 

(Good answer. Good answer.)

 

“Ok. If you’re right, you win this round. If not, the Lohmans steal. Do we have Stalk him and cook his dog! Oh, no. And the Lohman’s win. Which means they are up for the lightening round. When we come back.”

 I’m 75 years young. But when my colon starts to itch…. 

And we’re back! If you’re catching up, the Lohmans beat the Cranfords and have picked Arthur and Lonny for the lightening round.

 

Lonny, you’re up first. Name something you do on a Saturday night.”

 

“Enter rehab.”

 

“Name something your parents taught you about.”

 

“Gambling addiction.”

 

“Name something you buy for yourself.”

 

“Firearms.”

 

“Name someone or place you go to for advice.”

 

“Narcotics anonymous.”

 

“Name the occupation you are most qualified for.”

 

“Prostitution.”

 

“Ok lets see what the audience Said.  We asked for something you do on a Saturday night and you said Enter rehab. The audience said? Oh, nothing. We asked something your parents taught you about and you said Gambling addiction. Our audience said…Sorry. We asked something you buy for yourself, and you said, Firearms. Survey said. Oh, no. We asked who you go to for advice, and you said Narcotics anonymous. The audience said. Oh, I’m so sorry. But you still one more question. We asked you to name the occupation you are most qualified for and you said Prostitution. Do we have prostitution? No. Zero points. Ok, you still have a chance to win if your father does well, so lets bring him out, When we come back on The Family Feud!”

 

 Mr. Jiggles is a member of our family. So when it comes to buying dog food… 

 

“And we’re back. Arthur. Come on up. Lonny got no points, but you can still turn it around. Are you ready?”

 

“You bet, Chuck.”

 

“Ok. Name something you do on a Saturday night.”

 

“Beat my wife.”

 

“Name something your parents taught you about.”

 

“Running numbers.”

 

“Name something you buy for yourself.”

 

“A leather mask.”

 

“Name someone you go to for advice.”

 

“My drug dealer.”

 

“Name the occupation you are most qualified for.”

 

“Investment banker.”

 

“Ok, we’ll see what our audience said. When we come back. On the Family Feud!”

This was awesome! I genuinely laughed out loud at each commercial...if only real TV could be that way! One thing to tweak: in the sentence "We asked who you got to for advice, and you said Narcotics anonymous. ", did you mean "go to" instead of "got to"? Regardless, thanks for writing such a great post, and one I can comment on! :-) Rated with a pat for Mr. Jiggles!
Yes, typos are my worst enemy. After insomnia and work.
No, I've just heard them enough times.
I just keep hearing Richard Dawson! This was hysterical! Good way to end the day...laughing:) Thank you for that!
Sorry! I forgot to rate it! But I made it back...whew!
Loved this, but didn't understand why there weren't more hits.....
As if Springer took the helm at the show...Hey, that could WORK! Quick, copyright it Jim and finance your presidential run!
Actually reality TV is not so different. Cops meets The Osbournes.
What is so funny about your post is that it not far off from reality. When we were auditioning for Family Feud, you only needed to have a double digit IQ to make it on. Really. But every family we played against that audition day, seriously, they sounded like the family in your post. It was a riot. They, unfortunately, didn't make the cut. Too bad they let me through. Thanks for the comment on my post and this link. I loved this and I love your sense of humor.
