Cheech & Chong blowin' smoke in each other's face

Cheech and Chong - can't they get along?

Apparently not.

Tommy Chong recently labeled his former comedy partner, Richard (Cheech) Marin, a "sellout" and a "professional Mexican."

I guess ya gotta love it. -Tommy Chong accusing Cheech Marin of "selling out" and becoming a "Professional Mexican."

Being a Gen-X'r I had every SINGLE word of every SINGLE album these guys out out. -Yes, a few on 8-track ;>

So, these two guys start on even ground, cash in on the doper persona massively.

Then one grooms a career in the Industry, and the other makes bongs and eschews soap and water for 30 years, eventually goes to jail, gets out, and calls Marin a "Sellout".

Leftist Hippie-Dippies are useless wastes of oxygen, they mooch, encroach, stink, harangue and drag the whole world down with them, -every -last -stinking one of them. Call me Archie Bunker.

So I ask you all, which one is the LIBUHRUL? Guess.

And Chong isn't a professional burnout?

Tommy Chong accusing Cheech Marin of "selling out" and becoming a "Professional Mexican."


So Mr. Chong is using the Mexican label in a derogatory manner.

RALPH! RALPH! HEY RALPH! -- Tommy Chong's a RACIST!

[Yo-Yo]

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

Rae Dawn was Cheech's best work...

[Yo-Yo]

Whoops! Aw darn, Tommy! I meant Tommy! Honest!

"And Chong isn't a professional burnout?"

Ehrruma, that was pretty much my point ;>

Marin made a really good career for himself, Chong stayed crispy.

Icing on the cake is that Chong asked Marin to collaborate just before Marin was about to embark on a huge project and Marin had to decline.

That was when Cheech got snotty and Marin quipped: "I was to busy being a professional Mexican.

I guess you had to be there, -or at least have read the article.

I saw a HILARIOUS bit on Mind of Mencia where he said that because there were so many Hispanic Catholics and because Christ was named Jesus--pronounced hey-soos, the Pope should've been Hispanic, and he brought out Cheech Marin dressed as the Pope. "Pope Cheech" then proceeded to declare that his first edict would be to use tequila instead of red wine at communion. Somebody's gonna go to hell for sure.......

[Capn TrVth]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Rae Dawn was Cheech's best work...

I've always like Marin, but Rae Dawn. GrrrrRRReeeeoOOWWWWWW!

[Capn TrVth]

I'm just waiting for someone to ask if tommy Chong is Chinese ;>

[discostu]

The only people that get mad at somebody for "selling out" are the folks that have never been bid on. Cheech can make money just walking out on stage and being introduced, sweet work if you can get it, and at least he can do rolls other than the stoned Mexican (he was pretty solid in Nash Bridges, a show I enjoyed inspite of its many flaws).

[VRWCmember]

Being a Gen-X'r I had every SINGLE word of every SINGLE album these guys (p)ut out.

Then maybe you'll appreciate this post #36 about two guys who noticed fresh bear scat on a hiking trail in Yellowstone (but kept hiking anyway).

[billbears]

Let's see Cheech has an excellent career on several good shows over the past 10 years and is still funny, while Tommy shows up on That 70s Show (when he isn't in jail) to play a pothead...yep Tommy Cheech really sold out..

[Capn TrVth]

"Hmm.... What's that?

......."I dunno, looks like Bearscat."

..Taste.


Huh?!

TASTE!!!!!!!!!!!

That joke must go all the way back to Neolithic times ;>

"Good think Mog no step in."
