I just found out that Sterling Archer is not actually supposed to be a role model. Existential crisis follows.

I haven't been so dismayed since I found out that Patsy and Edina were not being held up as examples for emulation..
Next you'll be saying I shouldn't be idolizing Conan the Cimmerian or worshipping Cthulhu.
ReplyDeleteWait, you're living a less than absolutely fabulous life?
ReplyDeleteI little piece of me just died.
Ell. Oh. Ell.
ReplyDeleteThanks for that. I needed a good horselaugh this afternoon.
"Supposed", by who?! And why let 'em spoil your fun?
ReplyDeletePaul Newman was horrified when he heard that teenagers were hanging up "Hud" posters in their bedrooms.
ReplyDeleteInterestingly, I find Sterling Archer's ex-girlfriend Lana Kane unctuous and soothing.
ReplyDeleteI am an old guy and I had to Goggle to see who this fictional person is. Kind of a James Bond guys so what's the problem. He seems to be able to hold his liquor, treats women well enough for them to like him and he knows how to beat the bad guys. Sounds like who we all wanted to be when we read James Bond novels instead of studying in college in the early 60's.
ReplyDeleteLOL, if it works for ya, it's not wrong... :-)
ReplyDeleteOdd, I thought that Archer was a role model for my life ...
ReplyDelete"Why So Serious?"
ReplyDelete:)
And also..."here you are darling, for the pain."
ReplyDelete(I think I'm SO funny.)
Well, duh. Be more like Krieger, not Archer.
ReplyDeleteWhoever told you that is wrong, and you should not trust them further. Was he bychance named Barry?
ReplyDeleteI'm just going to go ahead and assume I'm living a happier life for not knowing what you guys are on about.
ReplyDeleteDude, Archer is literally the only reason I turn the TV in the living room on once a week.
ReplyDeleteI've got a couple episodes downloaded to my iPad for travel. I've probably seen "El Secuestro" better than half a dozen times and I still laugh all the way through it. It's just brilliantly funny.
For some reason danger zone and stir-Friday popped into my head while reading this. lol
ReplyDeleteArcher is awesome!
He's not?
ReplyDeleteSays who?
That's okay, there's still a good role model out there: T rex of dinosaur comics.
ReplyDeleteI'd prefer Axe Cop as my role model.
ReplyDeleteYou have a choice of role models, both with the same voice: Sterling Archer, extreme bad boy, or Bob of Bob's Burgers, family man extraordinaire.
ReplyDeleteOnly one can cook, so think about this.
Knew it. Squidbillies took that place for me a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteI Wanna be Lana Kane if I grow up -- even with the mean hand comments.
ReplyDeleteJesus, Mary and Joseph Stalin! My name is... Shazam!
ReplyDeleteIt's funnier still if you think in the vein that Archer is not an animated Bond, but a human-form Danger Mouse. Sterling just doesn't have a proper Penfold assigned to him yet.
ReplyDeleteOK, OK, I had to spend my weekend catching up on all of the episodes that I have missed.
ReplyDeleteY'all are a bad influence...
I'm not quite sure about that, Tam.
ReplyDeleteArcher came up with the best hangover prayer - maybe the best prayer, period - that I've ever heard:
"Bloody Mary, full of vodka, Blessed are you among cocktails. Pray for me now, and at the hour of my death, which I hope is soon. Amen."
Aaaaand then Archer proceeds to chug the pitcher of Bloody Mary.
Which, come to think of it, is a damn sight more impressive than anything Obama has ever done with booze. :D
Cheers!
