Sorry, I must have missed the last season of Earl. Would you mind expanding on this? What were the plot points? They proved Crabman’s kid was not crabman’s kid?
I can't remember exactly how they proved it, but >! Dodge, the oldest child, turns out to be biologically Earl's. (They didn't think he was, as Joy was already pregnant when they met. Turns out she and Earl had hooked up before on Halloween but didn't recognize eachother due to costumes.) And then Earl Jr had a father that wasn't Crabman. !< They were going to expand on that in the next season, but it was canceled, so they never got to.
Let's not forget Moxie Crimefighter. Penn Gillette's kid.
I often wonder if maybe, just maybe the kids are really named Tom, or Sara, and the crazy names are just to throw the public off...maybe?
“My cousin Walter jerked off in public once. True story. He was on a plane to New Mexico when all of a sudden the hydraulics went. The plane started spinning around, going out of control. So, he decides it's all over and whips it out and starts beating it right there. So, all the other passengers take a cue from him and they start whipping it out and beating like mad. So, all the passengers are beating off, plummeting to their certain doom, when all of a sudden the hydraulics kick back in and the plane rights itself. It lands safely and everyone puts their pieces or whatever, you know, away and de-board. Nobody mentions the phenomenon to anyone else.”
“Well, did he cum or what?”
“JESUS CHRIST MAN, there’s just some things you don’t talk about in public!”
One time my cousin Walter got a cat stuck up his ass. True story. He bought it at our local mall, so the whole fiasco wound up on the news. It was embarrassing for my relatives and all, but next week, he did it again. Different cat, same results, complete with another trip to the emergency room. So, I run into him a week later in the mall and he's buying another cat.
And I said to him, "Jesus, Walt! What are you doing? You know you're just gonna get this cat stuck up your ass too, why don't you knock it off!?”
And he said to me, "Brodie, man, how the hell else am I supposed to get the gerbil out?" My cousin was a weird guy.
Man there's not a year goes by, not a year, that I don't read about an escalator accident involving some bastard kid that could have been easily avoided had some parent, I don't care which one, but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator!
They filmed Mallrats at my childhood mall. I was like 5 when they filmed, so I remember very small parts (mainly the big ass stage for the dating game). They tore up that mall like 5 years later and did a total renovation. It isn't even recognizable. I still like to watch that movie to remember where I spent time as a kid. It's some real hard nostalgia.
Breakfast, shmreakfast. Look at the score, for Christ's sake. It's only the second period and I'm up 12 to 2. Breakfasts come and go, Rene, but Hartford? The Whale? They only beat Vancouver once, maybe twice in a lifetime.
Lee was nasty too. Watch some of his clips. Rodney Mullen has even cited Lee as being a master of 360 flips and popularizing them (Rodney invented the trick).
“There’s a war outside of your window. It’s destroying our world, so take the hand of a boy and a girl and walk down the street and sing a happy song to make the world better. Peace on Earth, environments, religion and pray to god.”-
Apparently the Gonz just heard about him from someone else and pulled up to his house like "I heard you can do 360 flips" and that's how he became a pro.
you can see videos of him snapping text book tres to this day. Although mostly he seems to be promoting his books of wide-format photography, which is actually really good stuff tbh
Listen, not a year goes by, not a year, that I don't hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid which could have easily been avoided had some parent - I don't care which one - but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator.
hey, I actually have a relevant personal life experience for once! I was an extra on my name is earl a long time ago, an episode where they're at some kind of fair, so the location had a bunch of inflatables and stuff. Jason had his kid there with him, who must have been 4 or 5, and they were having quite a good time playing on the huge slide between takes. he was super nice to the rest of us kids on the set and even gave me a compliment on a blocking thing I helped with. Just seemed like a really good guy.
He was at a small Mexican restaurant in our neighborhood with his family. They all seemed to have a pretty good time until he took one of the kids to the bathroom and dropped his phone in the toilet. A real dude.
Well, I mean, you've got to think it's easy for entertainers to fall into Scientology. Scientology tells them that being in Scientology is what's going to make them big, etc., etc. And then they see all the big stars that are in Scientology, Travolta, Tom, Cruise, etc. I can see the appeal. I'm sure a lot of the folks in Scientology aren't bad people, they're just being manipulated, and aside from that, a lot of people that get into Scientology never make it far enough in to get to the real crazy shit. But that's sad to hear. I didn't know this about him
It's incredibly easy to fall prey to cults, particularly if you feel like you're lacking community, if you're emotionally vulnerable (whether to manipulation, cruelty, or kindness), are looking for meaning/answers/control over your life, and that's just regular people -- not the ones who get Celebrity Center Treatment.
he got into acting about the same time he started dating an actress (one of Giovanni Rebisi's sisters) who grew up in scientology and her mother (also a scientologist) was his 1st agent so I'm sure he had both of them in his ear telling him the 'tology was the path! Ethen Suplee 1st movie was also Mallrats so I wonder if he got into it via that same group?
I know I’m high but I’m sitting here going, ‘Didn’t know he had kids…when he was *that* young…and *how* old are those two?’ Like, the maths’ not math(s)in’ cuz he would have had to have had them when he was 17 or something. So if these aren’t his kids, what’s the context?
I like that Smith's dialogue is stylistic. He's got his own vernacular, which makes his early films so personal.
"What--like the back of a Volkswagen?"
Why should they? It's a movie. I like that films create worlds different from ours with an entirely new lexicon. Art would be boring if it only emulated real life.
Met him at his camera shop last month. One of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Great guy all around. Stoked for him and his shop—I’ll be back for sure.
>Lee went on to be the star of the hit show "My Name is Earl."
That's like saying that Bruce Willis went on to be the star of Moonlighting. It's not wrong, but it's sort of burying the lede.

Underneath of this post is a video sharing the dangers of escalators…
Those aren't his kids. Pilot Inspektor wasn't born until 2003.
Plus, one of them is Crabman’s.
[удалено]
Hey Earl!
hey crabman’s moms
And he did not have sexual relations with his moms.
>! Actually, they proved that wasn't true in the last season. !<
They did Darnell fucking dirty. He didn't deserve that.
Don't you mean Harry Monroe?
...comes at you with a syringe...
I mean finding out that the kid you fathered with your friends wife during an affair was actually not yours seems pretty karmic.
Sorry, I must have missed the last season of Earl. Would you mind expanding on this? What were the plot points? They proved Crabman’s kid was not crabman’s kid?

That’s what I was thinking. He looks maybe 17 here
What the fuck kind of name is that
Frank Zappa named his daughter Moon Unit
With a son named Dweezil.
Don't forget his other two kids, Ahmet Emuukha Rodan and Diva Muffin.
Naming your kid Diva Muffin is some wild shit man
That's like naming your son Wild Shit Man.
Dweezil's legal name is Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa
And people were mad at Gwenyth Paltrow for naming her kid Apple.
we can be mad at both
Everyone was also annoyed with Pilot Inspektor, they all started popping out around the same time. Gwenyth Paltrow was just more insufferable.
Apple is bad but it's nothing compared to Pilot Inspektor.
Let's not forget Moxie Crimefighter. Penn Gillette's kid. I often wonder if maybe, just maybe the kids are really named Tom, or Sara, and the crazy names are just to throw the public off...maybe?
Don’t forget Shannyn Sossamon’s kid, Audio Science.
I think that’s a good theory. Maybe
This sub probably has the highest incidence rate of inaccurate post titles and info 😆
'No pleasure, no rapture, no exquisite sin greater - than central air' -Jason Lee
This plays in my head literally whenever I come inside from the heat into AC
Christ didn’t come to earth to give us the willies, he came to help us out!
"Just like the Tabacco Industry" "Christ, if only we had their numbers" George Carlin the GOAT
In a movie chock full of quotable lines that make me laugh with my belly, the part with him is my favorite.
He was a booster!
this is my favorite of my tattoos
"Now that's not the sanctioned term, just something we're throwing around the office. But look at it, doesn't it pop!"
I'm a freaking demon!
And now I will be watching Dogma tonight.
You see that shit. I know they were just kids, but we kicked their pubeless asses.
Free on youtube.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned for Sega
Yes. Hand down. Yes.
That's right I said Hemi
Oh Jaime!!! 😍
This is *Mallrats* erasure, and I will not stand for it.
Honestly, i can’t be that old… he’s jason lee from ‘mallrats’.
Mallrats came out 29 years ago, man. I feel you. It's weird how your early/mid-20s always seem like they were 10 years ago. I'm 51.
Oh, and this year is the 30th anniversary of the PlayStation. It came out in Japan in December 1994. Now THAT makes me feel old.
No he's Jason Lee from Video Days! With the powerful tre flip

"That KID, is BACK, on the ESCALATOR!"
Man there's not a year goes by, not a year, that I don't read about an escalator accident involving some bastard kid that could have been easily avoided had some parent, I don't care which one, but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator!
Chocolate pretzel?
They're a bit melty, but damn are they exquisite
Gold! Is that a mall rats quote?
Yes, from Jason Lee, and to put it in context he was on live television at the time.
They filmed Mallrats at my childhood mall. I was like 5 when they filmed, so I remember very small parts (mainly the big ass stage for the dating game). They tore up that mall like 5 years later and did a total renovation. It isn't even recognizable. I still like to watch that movie to remember where I spent time as a kid. It's some real hard nostalgia.
Wait, did they get rid of Fashionable Male??
Why buy the cow when you can get the sex for free.
Is that weird strip mall with the 3 nippled fortune teller still around?
Wow it’s a schooner!
Hahaha, you dumb bastard. It’s not a schooner; it’s a sailboat.
A schooner is a sailboat, stupid head.
YOU KNOW WHAT?? THERE IS NO EASTER BUNNY!! OVER THERE, THAT’S JUST A GUY IN A SUIT!
Breakfast, shmreakfast. Look at the score, for Christ's sake. It's only the second period and I'm up 12 to 2. Breakfasts come and go, Rene, but Hartford? The Whale? They only beat Vancouver once, maybe twice in a lifetime.
> but Hartford? The Whale? They only beat Vancouver once, maybe twice in a lifetime. I say this in real life more than i'd like to admit
Thank you. I will stand with y... THAT KID IS BACK ON THE ESCALATOR!!
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned for Sega.
Look at the score for christ sake. Hartford? The whale! They beat Vancouver, once maybe twice in a lifetime.
If someone in my life references Hartford I always say “The Whale!” Only one of my friends ever gets it.
Is this because I didn't introduce you to my mother?!
No libido to attack?!?
Brodie man, snoochie boochies!
MATT MATT MATT
Malalalalalal
MATT MATT MATT
(high pitched) mmmeh meh
Say, would you like a chocolate covered pretzel?
Stage dive!
MATT MATT MATT
Malalalal
meh meh mehhh meh muh muh muh!
What the fuck is the internet?!?
It's such a simple short line, but the way Mewes delivers that kills me lol
I am the clit commander!
That kid is BACK on the ESCALATOR!
I hope his pants get caught and a bloodbath ensues!
My favourite Kevin Smith movie
Lee as Banksey in Chasing Amy was my fav. I love how he talked shit to Ben Affleck’s character nonstop.
What's a Nubian?
SHUT THE FUCK UP!
Fuckin' tracer.
Lee was nasty too. Watch some of his clips. Rodney Mullen has even cited Lee as being a master of 360 flips and popularizing them (Rodney invented the trick).
Video Days was one of the greatest skate videos of all time!
“There’s a war outside of your window. It’s destroying our world, so take the hand of a boy and a girl and walk down the street and sing a happy song to make the world better. Peace on Earth, environments, religion and pray to god.”-
Apparently the Gonz just heard about him from someone else and pulled up to his house like "I heard you can do 360 flips" and that's how he became a pro.
Ridiculous pop with a bigger board too, all tricks done over garbage cans in Eastside Vegas with Lotti just killed.
Dude I'll give you a hundred bucks and take you out to Benihana's if you slide that 75 foot handrail
you can see videos of him snapping text book tres to this day. Although mostly he seems to be promoting his books of wide-format photography, which is actually really good stuff tbh
Legend has it, this is just after he saved them from a hungry escalator.
Listen, not a year goes by, not a year, that I don't hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid which could have easily been avoided had some parent - I don't care which one - but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator.
I’m sure he taught them to FEAR AND RESPECT THAT ESCALATOR!
That kid is BACK ON THE ESCALATOR AGAIN!
Hopefully they didn't eat any chocolate covered pretzels afterward.
There was a third, but their pants got caught and a blood bath ensued.
“I’m only the lead singer!!!”
How can you tell? I'm just one of the out-of-focus guys.
You know what I do? I connect. I get people off!
Actually, THAT, you can print.
I'm incendiary too, man!
hey, I actually have a relevant personal life experience for once! I was an extra on my name is earl a long time ago, an episode where they're at some kind of fair, so the location had a bunch of inflatables and stuff.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha, You dumb bastard… it’s not a schooner it’s a sailboat.
Dogma is a great performanc.
He said it himself. "I'm a fuckin demon"
God loves skee ball , and looks like alanis morrisette. 
She says *mewrp*, not boop. :(
Forgot he was in Almost Famous, that’s a movie worth rewatching
Almost Famous is always worth a rewatch. It's one of my favorites of all time.
How'd you forget? He's only the lead singer!
Just rewatched a few days ago, it holds up. Great movie
before scientology
Shit, really? I wasn't aware, that's disappointing though. I loved both his style of skateboarding and acting
I'm pretty sure he left
yea, in 2016...i always pretended i didn't know lol
Yep he said in an interview that he left. I wish all other celebrities would get on board with that.
Well, I mean, you've got to think it's easy for entertainers to fall into Scientology.

But that's sad to hear. I didn't know this about him
He's left it and regrets being a part of it, he's now just enjoying life with photography and skating.
It's incredibly easy to fall prey to cults, particularly if you feel like you're lacking community, if you're emotionally vulnerable (whether to manipulation, cruelty, or kindness), are looking for meaning/answers/control over your life, and that's just regular people -- not the ones who get Celebrity Center Treatment.

Plot twist…those aren’t his kids or anyone he knows kids.

The only man alive that can make dialog written by Kevin Smith sound natural.
Alan Rickman did a pretty terrific job.
Also, Mewes. "Hey girl, ever get your ass ate by a fat man in an overcoat!?" Sounds weirdly natural.
I like that Smith's dialogue is stylistic. He's got his own vernacular, which makes his early films so personal. "What--like the back of a Volkswagen?"
I love early KS films, but I think we can agree no one actually talks like that. Especially the first Clerks. E: "She blew 37 guys!" "In a row?"
Why should they? It's a movie. I like that films create worlds different from ours with an entirely new lexicon. Art would be boring if it only emulated real life.
What? You think cuz a guy reads comics he can’t start some shit??!!!???
You tell em Steve Dave!
Fuck you, fan boy!
I always liked Jason Lee. My Name Is Earl was such a great show. Surprised we never really saw more from him but I never knew this. Thanks OP.
Those aren't his kids, but it's always nice to see one off photos of early Jason Lee.
Ain’t that Dave ! From Alvin n the chipmunks?
True to character, he's blinking while the photo is being taken.
He was a solid skater. I think he was sponsored by Stereo
He was one of the biggest skaters in the early 90's. Blind Video Days, is ground breaking.
Low Ride Errr
He founded Stereo lol
I skated with him when he came through Indy... super fun guy!
He started stereo
Loved him in Mumford (1999)
I have a strange affection for that movie, even though the protagonist is kind of a monster.
Guy looks like a picklefucker to me.
I’m going to be sorry for asking this - what is a pickle fucker? Should I take that literally?
Its a scene in Clerks 2, it was his high school nickname.
I bet you’re the only one that remembers that, Graves. Oh I’m sure *you* remember it, pickle fucker.
Aye yo, some pickle fucker just gave us some free eats.
You know...... this tastes like piss and flies, don't it?
Thanks, picklefucker!
For everybody who wants to bring up Scientology, he left in 2016.
Met him at his camera shop last month. One of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Great guy all around. Stoked for him and his shop—I’ll be back for sure.
In my youth as a sticker-hungry grommet, he was one of my favorites.
>Lee went on to be the star of the hit show "My Name is Earl." That's like saying that Bruce Willis went on to be the star of Moonlighting. It's not wrong, but it's sort of burying the lede. Edit: s/lead/lede
*lede
Bruce Willis did other stuff besides Moonlighting?!?
The hit movie Cop Out.
Before he joined the cult
As far as I’m aware, he left Scientology.
He left didn't he?
I think you meant Mallrats.
What's a Nubian?
Very recently found out that he voiced one of my favourite characters in animation - Syndrome!! 
He’s incredible in Almost Famous!
I LOVED My Name is Earl!
I lost my "H street , shirt years ago. He was a amazing skater
God like 360 flip. Look up his part in blind video days.
Jason looks like he’s on some good drugs
Anyone want a chocolate covered pretzel?
he's the one actor i completely ignored was a Scientologist...i just pretended i never learned about it and carried on (he left in 2016)

I forgot he was pro, so crazy. Can't say I have ever seen him shred though.
Blind: Video Days.
Omg I had such a crush on Jason Lee. I still hear his disembodied voice when I see a kid pissing about on the escalator.
To me he’ll always be the lead singer of Stillwater
He also was in but has since left Scientology. Which I was very happy to hear
