One Man, So Many Catchphrases: Evan Ponder’s Greatest Hits, Explained

23 Feb

The wordings of a uniquely singular man, explained.

Lean back.

Hoot Hoot Hoot – Said anytime something excites him. Taken from “The Simpsons.”

2-10! – Two numbers. In the alphabet the first letter is B, while the tenth is J. He used to enjoy pointing out when they were placed together.

Gherkin! – Said in anger. I don’t get it.

Rabble Rabble Rabble! – As explained by Alex Reside:

It’s kinda like “dougie dougie dougie.” Like, if he was trying to move fast to do something like open the door. It’s similar to a scuttling sound.

Prove it. – A response to anything you ever say to him that goes against what he thinks, or he just wasn’t listening and needed something to say. It can be very hard to prove anything to him, at times.

Huzzah! – In moments of triumph.

Harlem Shake! – Said when doing the Harlem Shake.

Ooooohhhhhhh no! – As explained by Alex Reside:

It was from a “crimes caught on tape” video, where a guy was getting ready to jump off a building and the chopper was taking the video from above and a cop was sneaking up on the jumper to pull him off the ledge, but he missed the guy and he jumped. The chopper pilot just says “Ooooohhhh no!!” He laughed for like an hour straight.

Bud Fox – The name of Charlie Sheen’s character in Wall Street. He just likes saying it.

With what? Their asses? – From the show “Prison Break,” of which he was a big supporter.

Jenkins! – Said when he would throw his toy Sonic the hedgehog at the TV to turn it on as a child.

My heart hurts – He used to eat really poorly, and at times would offer up this complaint.

That Felix is a tough customer – Based on a Felix the cat videogame. No other explanation is available.

Your woman, these women – I had trouble pronouncing “women,” as I could only say “woman.” This was embarrassing. This phrase that he came up with solved the problem.

80 missed calls!! – Said whenever he pulls out his phone.

Some like it hot – A film, but to him, more importantly, a lifestyle.

And finally…

You can’t hoot a hooter.

No explanation needed.

The Pastrami Wars: A NYC Picture Weekend

16 Jan New York 014

This past weekend, I traveled to New York with a friend to visit another friend.  The traveling friend was Evan Ponder, who was looking  to play; and the visited upon friend was Alex Reside, who was looking to spice it up. These are my pictures.

Baby on a train.

Me on a plane.

As soon as I got into town I tried to tag my name. Ran out of paint. And rhymes.

Blue Bloods was being filmed by Alex’s! I am told that this is a show on the television.

It can be really hard to live in a city. Nobody even has the common decency to cut ‘em down.

This is Moose on me as I was going to bed Friday night. Real cute dog. I woke up in the middle of the night with him humping one of his Pokemon toys on my back. Really, really going to town on it. I was unsure of what to do, so I just laid there and let him go. It took a while.

Still just cute.

This breakfast was good! The coffee was also served on its own very nice and fancy plate, which may have made it taste better to me than it actually was.

That’s a bridge. It’s not the Brooklyn. It may be called the Manhattan bridge, but I have done no research and don’t feel like checking.

This baby wanted to stop and play on the playground. Alex wanted to pose.

He had a great ride.

Brooklyn bridge. Not pictured: Kenan Thompson.

We stopped at a winter fest thing and put together a tent. We all won new hats for this. Mine was the most expensive.

Another contest, another hat for me… only. Technically I didn’t really deserve the hat; the contest was to get at least one ping-pong out of three into one of three boots that were matted onto a board and stood up vertically. I didn’t get any of the balls in a boot, but I did get one in a small little loop on the heel of the boot. It’s really probably a more impressive feat.

They wanted to turn their hats inside out and for me to take a new picture. There are also two hats on my head.

We all got one final hat for wearing a blue coat and taking a picture. Three hats on my head.

The site of the pastrami wars. Lost a lot of good batmen.

Times Square! Lot’s of lights.

Just a neat shirt.

He posed like that for a while.

Still just a real cute dog.

Clever!

Looks kind of creepy.

Bye!
