December 28[edit]

What's with Jerry Lewis and Heyyy Laaaadies!!?[edit]

Where did that line come from? I'm all for family friendly, but what the heck was he thinking when he wrote this? It might imply that he wanted to have relations with the ladies anyways. Some catchphrases just...Run this thru your mind about 50 times and you'll see what I'm gettin at.--LarryOLarry (talk) 02:33, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First, it isn't "Heyyy Laaadies". It is just "Laaady". He used it (in a skit on his show) to get the attention of a store clerk who was ignoring him. It got a lot of laughs. After that, whenever he needed to get the attention of some woman, he would screech "Laaady". Where is your mind that you believe calling out "Lady" to a woman indicates that you want sexual relations? -- kainaw 02:52, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Larry may be mentally combining Jerry Lewis's bit with the song Hey Ladies by the Beastie Boys, which does have rather explicit sexual content. -- 128.104.112.113 (talk) 20:45, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, Larry! First the scientists with their filthy mouths, and now Jerry Lewis and his filthy obsession with sex. I hope your son can make it through this crisis. -- Captain Disdain (talk) 02:49, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
