Bubb Rubb: An American Original (FUNNY!)

Andy Warhol was right. Everybody will be famous for 15 minutes. Here's the story of "Bubb Rubb" the internet's latest version of "tourist guy atop the WTC...

A tv station in California (KRON) did a story about car whistles, which make noise via a welded bit in the exhaust. The reporter interviewed Mr. "Bubb Rubb" and got his opinions, as well as those from "Li'l Sis" and a few other folks. Mr. Rubb's comments are funny, to say the least, and have spawned countless others to produce even FUNNIER bits about the whole episode.

Where to begin? Start by watching the original clip here:

Then, go to this link for some of the funny stuff:

Cool photos on this site:

Also, try a google search for more about Mr. Rubb. http://bubbrubb.isgreat.tv/

Check out "Teds" Woooo Woooo post from 1/26/03


I couldn't resist using the infamous "Last week" picture. Trust me, I've had it used on me several times back when I used to post on Audiworld.com

I finally got the chance to use it on someone else, yippee! No offense intended

I don't know what's worse: Bubb Rubb or the station for airing this stuff!?!

Now, what's that smilie that shakes his head from side to side???

None taken. I noticed the image first and starting laughing out loud....there is little doubt I'll use it here at work myself.

Soon.

Real soon.

Like, right after this meeting I have to attend with the suits.
