Bubble Gum Interview- Dan Green
Dan Green of The Mortgage Reports is a super cool guy and today, we bring you the world’s shortest bubble gum interview. Someone must have practiced his stand up act in the mirror before answering, because this is hella funny! [Hint:] be sure to click all the links in Dan’s answers…
What is your favorite commercial on TV right now?
That one where the Native American guy sees all that pollution and the tear runs down his face.
Who would you rather have owe you a favor- Hillary Clinton, Tom Cruise or Oscar the Grouch?
That’s a trick question. Everybody knows that Hillary Clinton and Tom Cruise are the same person. http://HillaryClintonIsTomCruise.com
What nickname did you have as a kid?
Only the cool kids got nicknames.
How did you learn that the Tooth Fairy isn’t real?
The Easter Bunny told me.
What’s playing on your iPod these days (or tape player, whatev)?
Warren G. Harding’s 1921 inaugural speech (with introduction by Andrew Ridgeley)
Name all the places you’ve lived.
In the past, in the moment, in the clouds, and Cincinnati.
***************
So there you have it. Dan believes that the crying Native American is a current commercial, revealed to us that Hillary Clinton and Tom Cruise are, in fact, the same person (I KNEW I didn’t like her), was way too nerdy as a kid to get a nickname (so we’ll pick “Garbage Can Dan” and hope it sticks now that he’s cool enough), the easter bunny whispers sweet nothings in his ear, and relives Harding’s speech every morning on his crank record player. Now that you really (kind of) know Dan, what do you think??

I object to this line of questioning.

I wish you were my mortgage guy! Very funny.

I think Tom Cruise looks better in a dress than Hillary Clinton

That is too funny…I fell for it. I think I’ll have to think up a nickname for Oscar…oh, I mean, Dan too!

Oscar, oops… Dan, looks kind of cute in his trash ware. Pretty good for a nerdy kid to marry a woman who interviews soooo well.

Disappointed there was no link to this.

An obvious fabrication. Everyone knows the real Dan Green is not funny.

So, if he’s Garbage Can Dan, would he then be considered a Dumpster Diver as well?

I love-love-love Dan! And, he really IS that funny. Way to go, Mortgage Dude.

Great interview. I didn’t know that commercial was on YouTube - man, does that bring back childhood memories. It was a big deal at the time.

[...] guess some people take memes pretty seriously, but it’s more like a Bubble Gum interview to [...]

Dan,
This was pretty funny….I loved the picture and the statement. Creative… And I think Vicki is showing all of our ages… yes, that was a while back and it was a big deal back then.
In any case, don’t throw the wrapper away on this one. Jeff
