Who's More Annoying: Ned Stuart Or The Dell Computer Interns?
« on: October 18, 2002, 11:41:10 PM »
Hey gang,

Does the brash, worldy-wise Ned Stuart (a guy who seems to just barge right into other people's places of abode) really bug you?

Or, perhaps, do those all-too-energetic young Dell computer interns give you a case of agita?  I mean, the positively upbeat, grinning Steve was bad enough, but those aggressively-competitive, "uber" obsequious interns are just too much to stomach.  Heck, I haven't seen such proficient fanny-kissing since Larry King (the nonpareil "King of all Fanny-Kissers") planted a wet one on Yassar Arafat decrepit caboose several years ago!

I just love seeing all of those aspiring dot.com yuppies sniping at one another.  (The scene where the "assertive," young woman, in an all-too-obvious attempt to curry favor with her supervisor, bad-mouths the customer support personnel in front of her fellow interns, is, in a word, marvelous.)  It's enough to bring a smile to even Mordecai Grimes' saturnine kisser.  

Maybe Dell should play the great O'Jay song, "The Back Stabbers," in the background when Dell airs its next commercial featuring those enterprising and Machiavellian interns?

Ahhhh, Bob, this is one of those trick questions that can't really be answered, right? Like "Will a lion roar in the forest if he hath no prey?"

I feel the only answer for this question would be, the female suckface and Ned deserve each other. And they have my blessing as long as in their connubial bliss they disappear completely.

I just wonder - if Ned Stuart and the Dell creatures are locked in a room together for an indeterminate amount of time, who's hair would go white first?

Nothing born of woman could possibly be more annoying than Ned Stuart and still live to see the light of day.

I am happy to say I have yet to witness the shrieking, writhing horror that is the latest Dell promotion onslaught.

Happy waxing Moon to you all,

Gothick

Steve, if it were a shrieking, writhing horror, it would be easier to watch.  

Instead it's a snippy, sophomoric little irritant of a horror.  

It's a Dilbert cartoon gone rancid.  

It's the American Workplace as a Ring in Dante's Hell.

I'm sure it will sell lots of computers ::)

I wouldn't mind seeing Steven the Dell guy play Ned Stuart rather than Roger Davis.
