    So he doesn't like planes but has no problem with helicopters.
    Problem solved, so if you have a problem no one else can help and you can find him, ask Senna

    Well, he wasn't playing himself in the A Team, he was playing BA Baracus, who was afraid of flying.

    I'd be like saying that Angelina Jolie is a headcase simply because she played one in Girl Interrupted.

    Doesn't he say towards the end of the ad 'don't let me hear you cryin' coz I sure hate flyin!' Or something to that effect!?

    Edit: just saw it there again he says 'I hate flyin so this better be the last time I hear you cryin!'

    Exactly, when we all know it's because she is a hermaphrodite with 2 internal penises that when they are eroused trigger an extraordinary chemical reaction that cause her to go insane...it's the only logical explanation.

    What do you mean he wasent playing himself?Isent the A-team real?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 243 ✭✭HarryPalmer


    FFS, I simply cannot believe that all of you foo's be around questioning the works of Mr. T. Mr. T is as Mr. T does, and we - the mortals, excepting Chuck Norris - do not question.

    Hmm.
    Would have gone with Winona Ryder on that one, but then I remembered the shoplifting incident.

    If they are we'd never know about it, unless we need them, and no one else can help..........

    In fairness now, that don't show him gettin' on no 'plane. Just hanging around with chicks in uniform... that's the T's style.

    The fella in the ad is an American actor named Mr.T. (real name Laurence Tureaud). BA Baracus was a fictional character from the tv show 'The A-Team', played by Mr.T. The fact that you quite understanably confused the two and blurred acting with reality just goes to emphasise what a great actor he was/is.

    Hope that clears everything up.

    I know this is slightly off topic so apologies in advance but i just wanted to share an observation. In the snickers ad below does anyone else think its a slight reference to, Novermber 21, 1920 during the Irish War of Independence, 14 innocent people were killed at Croke Park during a match between Tipperary and Dublin by British army. Just wondering if anyone else has made the connection????

    In the film Michael Collins they showed an armoured car.

    In reality the shooting was done by soldiers with rifles.

    Actually it's a social commentary on the Assassination of JFK, thought that was blatantly obvious to everyone...

    slightly off with that, add 13.7 billion odd years to that (don't get me started on the normal looking years)

    You're confusing "Black and Tans" with "Bling and Tanks"
