Tickled by life, Boitano even enjoys 'South Park' ribbing
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | February 5, 2006 | Gwen Knapp

Brian Boitano didn't take long to guess what the first question would be. His post-Olympic life has been full, with all of the stature and opportunities that a figure-skating gold medal can confer. But one thing has kept him in the public eye more than his ice shows or mentoring of Michelle Kwan ever could. "South Park" created a cartoon doppelganger and renewed his cult status...

The fact that Shaiman, who also co-wrote, Everybody has AIDS, is gay, probably shields Parker and Stone from attacks from gays.

What other show would let a "star" cameo and give him no lines?

Jerry Seinfeld wanted to get a part on South Park, so Parker and Stone said he could be Turkey #4 on the Starvin' Marvin episode, but famous Seinfeld couldn't play such a small role.

As though Trey and Matt would actually care who attacked them. :D~

They only give "big" speaking parts to hot babes. Jennifer Anniston was in the rainforest episode, and Natasha Henstridge (the awesome blonde babe from "Species" and "She Spies") was the substitute school teacher who got launced into the sun by the girls and Iraq in "Tom's Rhinoplasty."

Tom's Rhinoplasty, still my favorite SP of all time:


Weak dude, she only likes other lesbians.

Hey man, if she only likes other lesbians then all we gotta do is become lesbians too.

Hey, yeah.

Hey guys, you know what? My grandma's Dutch-Irish, and my grandpa was lesbian. That makes me, quarter lesbian.

You're just saying that Cartman.

Yeah, you're not a lesbian fat ---.

I am, too.



What the hell are you doing Cartman?

My mom says if you want to become a lesbian, you have to lick carpet.

Really?

Well, I gotta Indigo Girls CD. The guy at the record store said it was perfect.

And I got these kewl Birkenstocks.

This is a bunch of crap. I've been licking this carpet for three hours and I still don't feel like a lesbian.

I can't wait for Miss Ellen to see what a raging lesbian I am.

I'm a bigger lesbian than you.

No you're a fatter lesbian than me.

Screw you guys, I'm king lesbian.

Don't forget Robert Smith from The Cure. Besides, Anniston isn't hot. :)

I remember hearing that Jerry Seinfeld wanted to do a guest voice on the show, so they told him he could be one of the sheep in a herd of sheep. He didn't do it.

I just can't imagine that they really care who is offended. I'm sure most activists have figured out by now that it is a waste of time to protest South Park.

I think a lot of the celebs enjoyed their ribbings, although I understand Sally Struthers, for one, did NOT.
