He’s not just famous, he’s _in_famous!

Use *asterisks* for in-word italics: *in*famous → infamous.

I love that Chevy Chase basically got to be... Chevy Chase... for a movie.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I'm sure wherever chevy chase is at the moment he is still being a asshole.

[–] _thebrain_@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

See: fletch.

[–] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I have, and no.

In TTA, he plays a pompous asshole actor.

That's not Fletch.

[–] _thebrain_@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Touché.

But in fletch he is a pompous asshole who (thinks he) is smarter then everyone else in the room. In the three amigos he is just a clueless pompous asshole. But I see the difference.

[–] ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Isn't Chevy Chase on the right?

[–] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You're correct. My brain jumbled it for some reason.

I got Cinco de Ocho!

“What’s the history of Cinco De Mayo?”

[–] And009@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's got nothing to do with mayo?

[–] BmeBenji@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

You’re thinking of the lesser-known holiday, Miracle Whip de Mayo
