Foist! Mehbee? Definitly not friendly.
SECUND!
But, friend… You’re mah friend. Ain’t ya, friend?
he iz nawt our frend!
I think its cute. But having watched too many McCain speeches it seeped into my vocabulary too, so I have to think its cute. I wonder if he’d invite us all around for dinner at the white house? Humm.
Potluck?
I’ll bring potato salad
yayz!!! i luvz potaytoe saludz!
It would be epic if we got like 500 people to call McCain and insist that since wwe are his friends, he has to have us over for a barbecue. XD
McCain says “my friend” instead of using other words. It’s like Flanders from the Simpsons. Oakelie Doakelie neighbor!
I’m not your friend, buddy!
I’m not your buddy, pal!
I’m not your pal, umm… guy?
I’m not your guy, mac!
I ain’t yer friend, palooka.
I’m not your palooka, dude.
I’m not your homie, dawg.
Pulp Fiction reference WIN!
I AM your mac, daddy.
I’m not your dude, man!
did you know dude is afrikans for elephant butt hair?
Not my friend, for the first time since 1968, I am voting Democrat for president. GAH!
Welcome to the light, Calvin!
Seeing sense WIN.
Sixth Sense Win?.
… “I see blue states”
hah! hilarious!
Yes, yes……welcome to the light, Calvin!
Repubs had some good sounding theories, but I think it’s time they re-examined them. They’re not. They in fact have no intention of admitting anything Regan said was anything but absolute fact. To that I say: look around dammit!
Welcome! Thank goodness for people like you.
Wait a second, you voted for a second term of Bush 1 over Clinton, and then voted for Bush 2 TWICE? *smack* *smack* *pummel* *smack*
*replaces your weapon with a nerfbat*
Don’t kill him, he won’t learn anything if you do…
Me Too!
Don’t do it! McCain may suck, but he’s not stupid and anti-capitalist like Obama. Just keep Obama out and pray there’s a good choice for president in 4 years. We’ll just have to write this one off. McCain for slightly less damage in ‘08.
If Obama is your idea of an anti-capitalist…
I don’t even know how to finish that sentence. It’s like calling George W. Bush a “strong black soulja”.
For REALS
mah bruther Obama luvs da Franklinz
That’s what I’ve been saying this entire election.
Is it wrong that it didn’t really bother me? Sure it felt like a desperate attempt to connect, but I don’t mind that as much as some other things he does.
Also, did anyone else notice that McCain is pretty old?
I dunno. A lot of people have done it in American history, so I just assume it’s his opponents trying to come up with SOMETHING to bash him over. After all, the debate didn’t give us really anything new on either side. And I’m getting sick of hearing “That one” jokes and “My friends” jokes. It’s really irritating to hear the same thing ALL ACROSS THE INTERNET all the time lately. My soapbox for today.
Same thing ALL ACROSS THE INTERNET? Hrm.. you could always get off the internet, but I suppose that would show disrespect to Al Gore.
Perhaps you’d be better served by a less ridiculous candidate.
Where can I find one? Do tell.
Condi Rice & Colin Powell?
Dude. *gives you cookie to calm you down*
Waitaminnit… You’re sick of “my friends” jokes, but not of the incessant barrage of “my friends” coming out of McCain’s mouth? Blame the guy who provides the material.
Old McCain is old.
This lol reminds me of “Dreaming of Michaelangelo” by the Counting Crows.
/random
I get that it was an attempt to “connect” but he said it soooooo many times that it was really distracting. His PR people need to coach him to decrease the # of times he says it.
Or not to do it if it doesn’t feel natural.
like buttsecks!!!!
Dude, a true friend wouldn’t treat my employer provided health insurance as a taxable expense.
He would also listen to me when I say I *don’t want* to go buy health care from Arizona or whatever (always the example he uses, and his home state, hmmm).
Everyone is his friend except “that one”.
Stop that.
Stop what, my friends?
My friends, you have to stop that. Otherwise “that one” wins!
In bed with Nerds and Twizzlers and he won’t SHARE!!!
I heard that Daily Kos put out a Public Service Announcement halfway through the debate for people taking shots every time McCain said that.
The PSA was – essentially – STOP NOW!
I guess there were some reports of alcohol poisoning???
If you can cite a source, you will win more internets than you can POSSIBLY IMAGINE!!!
Well, this was in the comments section at Crooks and Liars the night of the debate:

Kos has a public service

Kos has a public service announcement:
If anyone’s drinking game includes the words “my friends,” please, I beg of you, put down your glass now.
There was no link to Kos….
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/10/7/22516/6497/11/623420
This was the only thing I could find about a drinking game at Kos.
Hmmm, shakey source but… I will award you half of the internets you could possibly imagine. *awards*
woot!!
What will I do with my winnings??!?! *evil chuckle, rub hands together*
I will be unbiased and say spend them on cheezburgers to make our economy strong.
It’s just plain insincere when you say something that is supposed to be endearing 500 times.
Actually, and unfortunately, the audience largely WAS his friend. My state (TN) is firmly McCain territory.
I am so sorry. My former state, Texas, is as well. I’ve gladly moved to Washington since then – Obamaland.
That does explain why all the wishing I could muster didn’t make anyone in the audience punch him in the face-tumor every time he said it. (Grr.)
There’s one good thing if he wins, if we’re his friends…
then party at the white house!!
Oh, they can’t afford that now..
$700 billion entrance fee.
That man is not my friend. He’s not even a frenemy. He might as well say “Trust me.”
If he wants to be my friend, he can send me a friend request. Oh, and lose the election. Then we’ll talk.
THAT IS TOO TRUE!!!
I can’t believe how many times he said that.
EVEN TO DEMOCRATS!!
I started yelling at the teevee everytime he said ‘my friends’ in the first few minute of the debate. Therefore, I missed what he said. Did see his face get red and hear his voice get really tight. Think he was nerved?
If they were really all his friends, why did McCain leave so fast? And he left Obama to schmooze with all his friends…. and get their pictures taken with Obama…. and court their votes.
Some friend.
You guys can’t eve spell, and you’re making all these negative remarks about McCain. At least he isn’t telling you a bunch of lies to make you vote for him!
