Great thread title sbp.

[NuTs62]

heh, cause for a celebration!

[revil]

best of all:

If Steven is on the way out, nobody seems to have told "DellDudeSteven," an automated chat program set up by Dell to run on America Online's Instant Messenger.

When asked on Monday, "Dude, I heard you're getting fired!" the program responded, "I haven't."

Gotta love AI.

hahaha. don't let the door hit your sorry @ss on the way out

who are the "adoring fans" this article speaks of? i mean, here's an obnoxious, unattractive guy that stretches his face into a fake smile and has an obnoxious, too-often repeated punchline. what's to adore?

the great thing is that "steven's" career is probably pretty much shot. i mean, unless he can reinvent his look, he's never going to be in other commercials or movies or whatever, because whenever people see him, they'll think "dude, you're so out of date"

Maybe I don't watch enough TV, but I still think he's kind of funny. In fact, when we got our dog a few weeks ago, we named it Adell, because of the catch phrase "Dude, you're gettin' Adell!"

I've probably only seen him on TV ten times.

yeah, so they went from one annoying retard to 3...

i was actually thinkin about this last night when i saw the new dell commercials with those interns. i saw them and immediately wondered what happened to "unable-to-control-the-facial-muscles" boy. i guess prayers DO get answered .
