Dave, you scare the crap out of me.

"It is difficult to fight against anger, for a man will buy revenge with his soul. Heraclites, 500B.C." - Dave Titus


How deep and profound. Very unlike your traditional Sametime Status flotsam.


Part of the point, really. The fact that Dave Titus was quoting what appears to be some ancient philosopher is a total shock.


I'm afraid you've lost me.


Dave was a character on the former sitcom "Titus," loosely based on the life and comedic stylings of Christopher Titus. Dave is Titus's adopted brother who was basically brought up in the same family and endured the same treatments as his brother. He's also a raging idiot. This quote represents a very rare moment in the show where Dave says something this deep and insightful, and also pulls out an obscure piece of history....assuming Heraclites actually existed in 500BC. I'm going to assume he did because I can't be bothered to look it up.


That's good science.


I agree. And science is based on observation. So take the following observation test and let me know how you did:

NEVER!!!

I am not and never have been in denial. No!


That can't be true....or can it?


Well, I'm not sure. You'd have to ask the source. Today's source is the whimsical comic/actor Christopher Titus. Titus makes another appearance in Jeremy's Sametime Status, being a pretty reliable source of Status material. In fact, I recently saw his newest stand-up act, "The 5th Annual End Of The world Tour" which should also be rife with good quotes. You'll probably see him again.

Regardless, today's status comes from Titus's one-man show "Normal Rockwell is Bleeding" in which he somehow manages to turn some very dark memories and stories into a comedy act. Things like falling drunk into a bonfire, mental illness, DUI, family suicide become a comic goldmine in a pretty amazing demonstration.


Yeah....you can't even turn funny things into comedy.


Right. So allow me to introduce you to Mr. Titus and show you all part of "Normal Rockwell is Bleeding." Enjoy!
