What’s a Delmer Look Like?
Funny how things work. Have you heard of the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon? Just tonight, I was discussing the funniness of Delmer’s comment on a recent post of mine. In fact, LW was sitting on the couch chuckling to her laptop. I asked her what she was chuckling about, and she replied “a funny comment on your blog”. My reply was then “It’s Delmer’s comment, right?” and it was. Delmer is a funny man.
Now thanks to the already mentionned Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon, it’s no wonder that Delmer was going to come up again today…
I already did a post about how I thought Delmer, from the famous “What’s a Delmer look like?“, looked like Bruce Spence. Well tonight I watched Sideways (2004).

That’s Delmer. On the right.
The guy on the left is called Thomas Haden Church apparently. I think it’s one of Delmer’s covers. I think Delmer is really a spy, and that we’ll never know exactly what he looks like.

One of these things is not just like the others…
So, where do you stand on the Delmer Continuum?

Pourqoui est-ce qu’il n’est jamais les conversations comme cette:
Le nounou de la famille de LeSombre: Sacre chat!
LeSombre: Qu’est-ce tu vu?
Le nounou: Dans ton blog… une photo d’un derrierre tres bien. Tres ferme … comme une pamplemousse … avant d’etre mûr.
LeSombre: Est-il le derrierre du Delmer?
Le nounou: Oui.
LeSombre: Ah, oui. Donc.
Le nounou: Pourquoi est-ce que tu me dis “donc.”
LeSombre: Parce-que “donc” est un mot tres drole.
Le nounou: Tres drole?! Meh.
*Fin*
Thomas H Church is about two months older than I am… I often have that worried look he’s sporting in the photo you’re using. I think I have a bigger mouth. Donc.

Haha! That is freaking awesome! He does kinda look like a mix of those two!! Delmer is hysterical. Even if I know he’s talking about me up there. Jerk.

(Yeah, I took French but I remember the really bad basics, only. Don’t hate me!)

I knew Delmer looked like someone else.

Awesome, Michael. This is a pretty damn sweet find. And I like Thomas Haden Church (who was also in one of the Spiderman movies, as well as the great movie Sideways)

@Delmer: ROTFLMFAAGAO.
(That’s Rolling on the floor laughing my firm as a grapefruit ass off.)
@Sybil Law: Oh, I spoke French most of my life and didn’t quite get what Delmer wrote either.
@SheilaCSR: We’re gonna have a problem here…
@MartyMankins: I knew the Sandman looked familiar too!
