"Pearl earrings"

Posted by Bucky Katt on 06-16-04 at 01:13 AM
Tim got the inside joke, I don't think Ingrid did....

"How 'bout a birdy? I got a little birdy right here."

It's actually "Pearl Necklace".
Aside from your misslocation of the pearls, Tim still got the joke.
It was awesome watching him breakout in giggle-fits upon hearing it. Over and Over.

In fact I'm quite sure Tim wouldn't mind giving Cami a "Pearl Choker" or Ambrosia a "Pearl FannyPack" or ....

My hubby had to clue me in on the joke. But once he did, man, was THAT funny!



Really must brush up on my porn lingo...

I am sitting in the clueless corner with Ingrid. I asked my hubby and he says he doesn't know either.

I was wondering why Tim was laughing so hard.

I didn't get the joke ...
What is so funny about the pearl necklace?
Could someone please clue me in?

Yay! Deonna is here! I was hoping you'd show up.


I didn't know about the "Pearl Necklace" either.

O.M.G. That was the funniest scene I think I've ever witnessed. I was laughing so hard, I almost wet myself. Tim obviously got it, but the rest of them deserve an Academy Award just for keeping a straight face.

Did you recognize the music playing? It was the music from The Mole. LOL!

I didn't watch this show last time, was it this funny?

They kept that in? Joe Schmo is produced by Stone Stanley, the same folks behind The Mole, and when Spike TV sent me the Episode 1 screener last month it featured the mole music during the elimination, but the screener made it clear that it didn't feature final effects and music, so I assumed that they'd be replacing that in the broadcast episode.

I can't believe they kept that... since I'd already seen the whole first episode a few weeks ago, I didn't bother watching the 10PM broadcast and instead watched my WB affiliate's 10PM broadcast of the SuperStar USA finale (we don't have a real WB affiliate here in Rhode Island so the UPN affil airs the WB stuff at wierd times) and then watched Bravo's Blow Out at 11PM, so it was well after midnight before I popped in my tape of Spike TV's Joe Schmo Ep 1 broadcast and I was probably kinda nodding off by the time of the eviction, I can't believe I missed that

>I didn't watch this show last
>time, was it this funny?

Yes... I'd say even more so, although this was also very good. I really like this show.

Yep, I'd recognize that tune anywhere. Made me miss The Mole. I didn't realize it was Stone Stanley. They do have quite a sense of humor.

when Spike TV sent me the Episode 1 screener last month

Lucky you!! Why didn't you warn me that it was so freakin funny?

Yes... I'd say even more so

GET OUT! I find that a little hard to believe seeing as I thought the premire was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. I guess I'll have to buck up for the DVD set.

edited to remove a question about repeats, that I found the answer to in a different thread.

The first season had so many classic moments. It's what brought me to OT...as I wouldn't have looked for a chat forum for any other show. JS1 was just so hilarious I had to talk about it. Then Bebo and Pooh were having so much fun (spilled over from OT), I followed.

Oh, and the Schmo was perfect. He's the reason I don't know if I'll watch season 2. Never in their wildest dreams could they have gotten a better character.

GET THE DVD!

Last season's Joe Schmo also featured music from The Mole, which is hilarious if you catch all the reality-tv-show parodies they use. Good stuff.

Actually Ingrid did get the joke but if you watch her face she is trying to figure some things out. Remember after how she is grilling the girls on how they sounded like they had rehearsed. Her friend here in the office shared that right off the bat Ingrid felt way different than the other women. If you watch her expressions you can see her mind working. If you listen and watch too sometimes they say really odd things and if you catch her expression it is very questioning and she watches the other "contestants" to see if they are noticing it as well.

"RE: Pearl earrings - DOH!"
Posted by Bucky Katt on 06-16-04 at 10:48 AM
Doh! My memory is good but short. Yes of course it is a pearl necklace and for those who don't know, it is "porn lingo" (good term Spidey) for when a man finishes on a woman's chest area.

"How 'bout a birdy? I got a little birdy right here."

They sat it is the "Flame of Love" ceremony for the men and the "Pearl Necklace" ceremony for the women.

"RE: And the next step is:"

A Hummer?


-----------

As to Loree's statement of the name of the ceremony being the "Flame of Love".
May I just prepare you all for a porn translation of that;
Flame of Love is a nice way of saying "Welcome to the wonderful world of Gonorrhea".

Ouch!

Oh no! I wasn't even thinking of the dirty connotation until I just read this. If I recall, I think Austen said, "May I give you a pearl necklace?" to each woman. Too funny! No wonder Tim was cracking up. I guess I'm not very bright - I just thought he was laughing at the cheese factor.

must spend more time on OT and get my mind back in the gutter for this show

I with thinking dirty connotation during the first elimination.

I thought Tim was laughing at the chesse factor too. Maybe it's just me but I don't think the 'peral necklace' porn reference is particularly funny.

Maybe it's just me but I don't think the 'peral necklace' porn reference is particularly funny.

In isolation maybe not, but when Austin asked each girl:

"May I give you a pearl necklace" and then each girl replied with some version of

OH, yes, please! I would love it!

THAT? Was hysterical.




"RE: Pearl earrings"
Posted by true on 06-17-04 at 06:40 PM
I'm still laughing.

I can see if you didn't have a clue, and found out later, it may not seem as funny. No joke is as funny when you're not in on it, right?

I thought the entire program was hysterical. Passion rock, Teet of love (or something like that), The Mole music, the elimination promos leading into every break ala The Bachelor, the hot tub date, the falcon, the over the top host... I could go on and on.

I guess I found it all so funny because I watch all those cheesy reality dating shows, and I got all the spoofs. I didn't watch it last season, so I have nothing to compare it to.

I thought it was a riot from start to finish.

-true

oh, was the host so over the top last season? His speeches were killing me.


"RE: Pearl earrings"
Posted by AugustGirl on 06-17-04 at 06:47 PM

Yes, he was. Last season the host and one of the female contestants carried on a very obvious hot and heavy flirtation, to the dismay of one of the other female contestants who had a major crush on the host. It was great. Matt's eyes popped out of his head at least 20 times an episode.

Good stuff.

If you don't watch straight porn, you'll never know what a Pearl Necklace is. I didn't know until a co-worker explained it to me too.

That's simply not true. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Some people found out about it right here on this board. Last I checked, this wasn't a porn site.

There are any number of ways to learn definitons of slang terms. I know tons of gangster terminology, and I'm a suburban housewife. (ok, not really, but I could without joining a gang.)

and here I thought maybe she was trying to point us to the virtues of lesbian porn

Love this show...missed the second episode though..have to try and catch it this weekend when they replay it.

OMG! That was so funny! I missed it the first time because I was so busy laughing about the first half. When I watched it again I couldn't get up off the floor! I love this show!
