The late Pop Culture Friday

This past week's pop culture question for the panel on The Onion AV Club blog was:

What celebrity do you think would make a good best friend?

After thinking about it for a few days I'd have to go with
Bill Murray.

We're roughly the same age, okay, he's a little bit older than me but that wouldn't matter. We're both funny so we'd crack a shitload of jokes and make fun of all the people and things who need to be made fun of. We could hang out and drink beer or go hit the links since we both play golf. I'd also introduce him to disc golf. He's into baseball big time so we could watch games together and since he's wealthy he could spring for us to go to a major league game every so often, heck even it meant watching his favorite team, the perennial chokers and also rans, the Chicago Cubs, I'd be willing to go and not complain too much. Yeah, I'd definitely pick Bill Murray.

I bet he would be a cool friend to have.

Not sure who I would pick. I'll have to think about this. Interesting concept.

I always thought that Freddie Mercury would be a very cool friend.
Outside of his 'stage persona' he seemed to be a very down-to-earth, fun, witty, compassionate person, who also loved cats...someone who I could totally relate to & really enjoy doing so.

Did you see him playing golf with Michael J. Fox on his Optimist show? He is totally cool. He even gave a "it's in the hole..." to the camera.

HE IS TOTALLY COOL. I drove him from the airport to the hotel I worked at and because I told him to get good BBQ at the Pickled Parrot he tipped my $100 AND carried his own bag.

I am a girl after all.

Yup, I would golf, watch baseball and drink beer with him. He USED to be a part owner of our team the St. Paul Saints, don't know if he still is????
