Told Ya So

by Mary Anne on October 30, 2008

I knew it, I just knew it! My good friend Ann of at Ann Again…And Again just gave me the heads up on some breaking news.

As predicted, Joe The Plumber is going to extend his 15 minutes of fame….BY BECOMING A COUNTRY MUSIC STAR. Well yee-haw y’all!

Says his spokesperson:

“He’s had a deluge of requests. Right now we’re just planning on getting him through the week. There’s going to be life far beyond the election for Joe the Plumber.”

Told ya so. And? I’m fairly sure the producers of Dancing With The Stars are probably already in touch with him. I sense that he will start speaking in the third person any day now. “Joe the Plumber thinks it’s a nice day” “Joe the Plumber likes what you are wearing” “Joe the Plumber would like to flush your pipes”…wait, that wasn’t nice.

We have to end the drinking game after election night or we are all doomed as it would appear that this nonsense will never end. God help us all.

FIRST!! And yeah, WTF? I heard this on the radio, and I was amazed at how fast he’s trying to cash in. From metaphor to media whore, in one month flat. Gah!

2 goodfather October 30, 2008 at 12:30 pm

Uh, apparently I have strong feelings about Joe the Plumber, cashing in on his metaphorness. Hmm.

SECOND!

3 Momma Trish October 30, 2008 at 12:32 pm

Country music star?!?! Ooh, great. I wonder if he has any talent. I wonder if he can play an instrument. Or sing. Or write. I’m guessing, no. On all fronts.

4 Momma Trish October 30, 2008 at 12:32 pm

Oh. Also:

THIRD! and FOURTH!

5 Jim October 30, 2008 at 12:43 pm

Thank goodness I won’t catch him on any of the airwaves I listen to.

6 Cameron October 30, 2008 at 12:50 pm

Man…all these douche balls keep getting famous. What the hell am I doing wrong? I mean, I know I don’t have any talents or skills, or personality for that matter, but neither does he. Lucky bastard.

7 HeatherPride October 30, 2008 at 2:07 pm

I love the Dancing With the Stars idea! Hilarious.

How long until JtP hits iTunes, I wonder….

Blech. It’ll be him singing about the fact he’s a plumber. This whole deal the world has of making celebrities out of people who aren’t is just lame.

9 Ann October 30, 2008 at 2:54 pm

I’m dreading how many “Joe’s” I’ll see for Halloween.

10 steenky bee October 30, 2008 at 3:25 pm

No no no no. This can’t be good. I don’t really follow country music, but I definitely will squash any sort of thoughts I’ve ever had of listening. I think I’m happy to say, that I will never, ever hear this.

11 vodkamom October 30, 2008 at 4:43 pm

oh sweet baby jesus.

12 Sprite's Keeper October 30, 2008 at 9:02 pm

Oy! End it before it starts! If he reaches Elmo status by talking in the third person, I’m done!

Noooo! Crazytown.

Next he’ll be sharing a tv sitcom with his [high school student by day/rock star by night] daughter.

14 DCD October 31, 2008 at 5:42 am

AH! Does that mean we have to drink every time we hear one of his songs?

Thank goodness I don’t listen to country music.

15 Sammanthia October 31, 2008 at 6:36 am

I heard he’s doing a duet with Tammy Wynette called “Stand By Your Can.”
OK, that was just lame. My apologies.
