I linked to this video a while back and I’m a little embarrassed to say that JB and I have been quoting from it sort of nonstop ever since. In fact, I’d like to share with you a very special voicemail left on my phone today by my husband (sorry about the sound quality): HOW YOU LIKE MAH DICK NOW?

You guys must just have the greatest time all the time, considering that is *just* a voicemail. Your regular conversation must read like a funnier, cleverer, r-rated “Gilmore Girls” script. Reminds me of all the times I have to stifle a snort from some ridiculously inappropriate text message my boyfriend sends me when I’m inevitably meeting with a student about Something Very Important.

That’s pretty hilarious. :)
My husband and I quote from everything-movies, video games, commercials..I guess we’re sad, but 10 years of sadness together rocks.

That’s wrong. Just wrong. And it’s wrong that I now ask my 4-month-old “Whatchoo doin there, jiggly puff?”

I’m so jealous, I watched that vid and all my husband could do was criticize all the swearing. I mean HELLO? that’s what makes it so funny! He’s such a kiljoy sometimes.

Also: how did you save your voicemail to a format that could be put on your computer??? I MUST KNOW.

Linda, thank you for contributing the greatest post in the history of the blogosphere. My wife is about to be real sorry she introduced me to your Cleverness so long ago. JB if you happen to be tracking comments on this one, you are a MF KING my brother, for I have always wanted to talk to my wife in pimp speak, and now thank the Lord I can finally get away with it!

You guys kill me! And how is it that the video is cute and totally wrong at the same time? Ahh, old school gumby… you know before the audio started I thought it may be an Eddy Murphy thing.

I grew up on Gumby and Pokey and what I have to ask myself is why did those shows make sense to me way back when? The creators must have been on acid or a hell of a lot of dope.

First of all, you guys are HILARIOUS. Second, I’m with warcrygirl– howEVER did you manage to turn a voicemail into a wav file?? Can you give us a step-by-step on that?

I admit. I listened to that voice mail more than a few times. It’s just so good!

I second the notion JB needs a guest appearance on here. I think he should do a vlog!

I don’t walk, I electric slide, BITCHES!

Great VM, you rock JB. And I’ll second your HOT DAMN: 84 degrees is a GIFT, an absolute GIFT isn’t it – especially after this sucktastic “spring” weather we’ve had!!! And today it’s hot again, Go Weekend Go!!

That was hilarious! You guys need to do something together – a blog, book, tv show, just do SOMETHING!!! Every marriage needs a little more “how you like mah dick now?” talk :)

Not that I had a preconceived idea of what JB’s voice sounds like…but that would not have been it. The content, though, is just right. I like to think “same fucked-up, absurd sense of humor” is what keeps relationships like yours and mine from rotting. That, and the occasional acquiesence after the 38th blowjob joke.

You and JB are without a doubt my favorite blogosphere couple, tied with Antonia and Ian of “Whoopee.” Do you know Antonia’s blog? If not, you need to, right now. Stop reading this and go here–you will thank me later:

i agree. you guys rock. i think marriages are far better when the partners share a sick, twisted, and very wrong sense of humor. i’ve been married 10 years now, and my husband STILL says totally inappropriate things to me, each and every day. *sigh* no wonder i love him.

also…everytime someone talks to me today, in my head i will be saying, “how you like mah dick now?”, regardless of what they are talking about. hahahahah

So I’m driving down a fairly new, not heavily traveled street Saturday when I notice the speed limit was 35. I was driving 50. I think to myself ‘Oh yeah, like I’m going to drive 35 SUCK A DICK!’

You are the best bad influence EVAH.

Somehow iTunes became my default media player so after the VM stopped playing, Howard Jones’s “Everlasting Love” came on and I found it rather fitting. ;)

Love it! I’m the foulmouthed one in my relationship. My boyfriend started out openmouthed at it but is now getting into the swing of things ;)

HOLY OMG. This is awesome. Thank you. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I am sending this to everyone who might understand…

And… who has some kind of headphones because you just can’t listen to this at work. What’s up jigglypuff?

So the voicemail encouraged me to send the video to my husband, who did not find it as funny as I did. But he’s lame, so whatever. Mah dick is long.

To be a total killjoy, though, and maybe someone already mentioned it.. they keep calling Pokey “Prickly Goo”! Which is not his name! Prickle was the dinosaur and Goo was the flying blue thing.

.. yeah, MY HUSBAND is the lame one. HIM.
