The phrase “now I’ve seen everything” time and time again has been proven moot. I think my favorite counter argument of this phrase was from the brilliant Team America: World Police. The dialog proceeds thusly:
Gary Johnston: A flying limousine…Now I’ve seen everything.
Spottswoode: Have you ever seen a man eat his own face?
Gary Johnston: No
Spottswoode: Then you haven’t seen everything…and neither have I.
I have over a hundred posts on this blog to remind me that I have not seen everything, but the I think news story that I read today is the final nail in the coffin for this tired phrase. Here is the link.

If you are like me and get annoyed by following links I will distill the finer points down into this sentence.
Man under house arrest breaks curfew to drive, speeding, while naked, high on crack cocaine, drunk on alcohol, with a naked prostitute in passenger seat, only to crash car in parking lot.
Now that is rock star living.
I used to love ALF as a kid (only God knows why). I just don’t remember the opening credits quite like this.
