Title: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: BigBlack on October 22, 2007, 12:54:40 PM That little popping sound you just heard was my mind being blown (http://www.13wham.com/mostpopular/story.aspx?content_id=0b3e52fa-dbd2-4d4d-a2fe-195173ea65e5).
Honestly, Inside the Actor's Studio wouldn't be half the show it is with anyone else hosting it. The man is in this sort of Adam West zone that defies parody. Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Grand Design on October 22, 2007, 01:07:58 PM No shit. Of course Lipton is a pimp.
File under, "shit you would say figuratively only to be mortified that it translates literally." Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Signe on October 22, 2007, 01:18:02 PM I'm not all that surprised since he did say he was "very, very young" when that was going on. I had a friend who did a bit of that while living in Romania while on some contract for tech work. It was a one time thing which didn't last long and never did again. A lot of us have done odd things in our past. Look at me!
I used to be a girl and now I'm a wife! Who did YOU used to be? :hello_thar: Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Yegolev on October 22, 2007, 01:20:08 PM I have done nude modeling. No lie. Easy money.
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Signe on October 22, 2007, 01:38:22 PM When you were "very, very young", right? RIGHT???
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Nebu on October 22, 2007, 01:41:19 PM I have done nude modeling. No lie. Easy money. Dirk? Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: BigBlack on October 22, 2007, 02:00:07 PM I have done nude modeling. No lie. Easy money. What was the modeling for? Art classes? "Gay for pay" websites? Chippendales calendar? Inquiring minds want to know! Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Abagadro on October 22, 2007, 02:57:48 PM I have done nude modeling. No lie. Easy money. I've been known to be paid to keep my clothes ON. Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: WayAbvPar on October 22, 2007, 03:11:21 PM I have done nude modeling. No lie. Easy money. I've been known to be paid to keep my clothes ON. I might have to give that one a try. I took a beating at the poker table Friday night... Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Righ on October 22, 2007, 06:45:55 PM How does it make sense for the minimum bet to be $15 on a hand of blackjack on a front of house table?
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Furiously on October 22, 2007, 08:30:29 PM To get the suckers?
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Righ on October 22, 2007, 08:50:22 PM That's the casino part, yes. I'd have thrown away some of my money if I could have lost at a slower rate though. Still, it was entertaining to watch others do so.
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Yegolev on October 23, 2007, 07:49:41 AM When you were "very, very young", right? RIGHT??? I have never lived in Asia. Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: voodoolily on October 23, 2007, 09:42:56 AM When I was very young I cleaned people's houses and did their yardwork for 25 cents an hour. Back then, it was called "child labor". Aahhh, memories.
(I actually did do this for real - my mom's coworkers used to take advantage of me in this way. I even had to clean the inside of someone's fireplace once! And that's no metaphor.) Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: WayAbvPar on October 23, 2007, 09:48:18 AM Just as long as you didn't clean anyone's pipes, it is all well and good. :hello_thar:
Cinderella. :evil: Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: bhodi on October 23, 2007, 09:48:44 AM When I was very young I cleaned people's houses and did their yardwork for 25 cents an hour. Back then, it was called "child labor". Aahhh, memories. That's horrible! I hope you have nasty plans for your mom when she gets old.(I actually did do this for real - my mom's coworkers used to take advantage of me in this way. I even had to clean the inside of someone's fireplace once! And that's no metaphor.) Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: voodoolily on October 23, 2007, 09:58:16 AM My mom is dead.
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: bhodi on October 23, 2007, 10:01:22 AM Ouch. You ruined my joke. Also, my day.
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Yegolev on October 23, 2007, 10:13:26 AM Let's just go back to talking about me being naked.
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: voodoolily on October 23, 2007, 10:23:08 AM Then we all win!
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Grand Design on October 23, 2007, 10:41:48 AM So, can we get 'James Lipton is my Pimp' t-shirts?
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: voodoolily on October 23, 2007, 10:57:51 AM Or "Is James Lipton Gonna Hafta Choke a Bitch?", that would be good.
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Paelos on October 23, 2007, 08:45:35 PM I thought this thread was about the guy who made soup.
I actually have only see Inside the Actor's Studio a few times and couldn't understand the appeal. The host freaks me out too much to be entertaining. Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: stray on October 23, 2007, 10:33:14 PM I dig it, but I have a little experience/interest with filmmaking and theater workshops. Why the show is so popular with others though, I don't know.
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: BigBlack on October 24, 2007, 06:40:34 AM I think the SNL sketches helped it enter into the popular consciousness.
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Sky on October 24, 2007, 01:31:42 PM I will not relate any stories of misdeeds here.
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: lesion on October 24, 2007, 01:41:05 PM what about down here?

Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: NiX on October 26, 2007, 12:20:20 AM Wait, at the end of that article is he implying he would watch?
Title: Re: James Lipton, French Pimp Post by: Paelos on October 26, 2007, 04:10:33 AM Wait, at the end of that article is he implying he would watch? Then he would ask them about their performance later.
