   1 August 2007 - Seth Rogan, NASA Scandal   
   02 Aug 07 01:48:13   
   
   From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu   
      
   Seth Rogan:   
   	- Since 'Knocked Up' came out his life is different; it used to be people   
   didn't talk to him in bars.  Now he's swarmed by 25-year-old dudes.  It's like   
   he's Jessica Alba.  People ask to hang out with him.  Guys with backwards   
   baseball caps, who had to    
   be paddled to join their frat.   
   	   
   	- Superbad was originally written when he was 13.  How is it different from   
   what he'd written as a 13-year-old?  He now has some emotional scenes besides   
   the genital-related jokes.   
   	   
   	- Some of the biggest laughs are lines he wrote when he was 13, so now he's   
   less funny than he used to be.   
   	   
   	- His parents saw the movie and took it as permission to be dirty.   
   	   
   	- His personal Citizen Kane was Porky's.  He loved 14 minutes of it, and he   
   made a compilation tape of his favorite nude scenes and Porky's was the   
   centerpiece of that.   
   	   
   	- He outgrew the part of himself for the movie and someone one year younger   
   than him plays it.  He looks considerably older than his actual age; when 18   
   he had a fake ID plausibly claiming he was 33.   
   	   
   	- He rode around with police preparing for his role; he dearly hoped the   
   people they went on didn't see The Forty-Year-Old Virgin.   
      
      
   NASA Scandal Puns:   
   	- Conan explains the Post's headline of the 3-Martini Launch.  Max quips they   
   went from Buzz Aldrin to Buzzed Aldrin [1].  John Glenn?  John Glenfiditch.    
   Apollo 8?  Apollo 80-proof.  Instead of a mission to Mars, they went a fishing   
   to Bars.  Final    
   Frontier?  Final front Beer.  Time passes. Tang traded for tankerade.  One   
   small shot for man, one giant gulp for manking.  Calender passes.  Instead of   
   Cape Canaveral, they went to Keg Canaveral.  Need Another Sip, Astronaut.   
   	   
   	- A page says they can probably stop.  Stop?  America loves puns!  The   
   audience is empty, but applauds.   
   	   
   	+ [1]  Buzz Aldrin is a recovering alcoholic.  Was this joke meant to be in   
   as questionable taste as it was?
