If he was pronouncing it correctly, the response would be "what'd you just call me?"

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 4 points 11 months ago

No, whats is the name of the people I was referencing

Surely you can't be serious

I am serious, and don't call me Shirley.

IninewCrow, do you like movies about Gladiators?

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.

"I'm not asking you who's on second."

"Who's on first!"

"I don't know."

(together) "Third base!"

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 months ago

First? Third? Second? ..... Does anybody here know Jive?

Always found it weird that About and Costello used non traditional US names back then, the joke makes more sense now

Still funny though.
