Guest Hollinger Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Jeff - either a mailman or owner/employee of a guitar shop John - soybean farmer and owns an antique shop on the town square. Glenn - runs his own small appliance repair shop. Always seems to amp up anything you bring him beyond the point that it was working before. Nels - working in a big chain book store or at a movie theatre... there's always some older hip guy making just enough money to live off of. That guy is Nels. There's even a dude at the theatre here in Des Moines that looks kinda like a nerdy Nels. Maybe that's why I see it. Mikael - graphic designer for a big business that really doesn't need a talented graphic designer. Spends most of the day fucking around on the internet and writing his novel after finishing any assignments in a few minutes. No one above him seems to realize how little effort he has to put into it. Constantly getting bumps in salary because managment is impressed with the amount of work he must have put in. Pat - Kindergarten teacher, crazy Mr. Rogers style friendly. The moms are all in love with him. Or they just want his hair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
allgodsmoney Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 They all look like undercover cops to me. Now you'll wonder what they're looking at while we're looking at them. It's a Department of homeland security/ DEA/FBI/FCC taskforce up there! (FDA too?) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Nels - working in a book store I think he did just that - before he joined Wilco. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nora Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Aren't they all working at the record store with Jack Black and John Cusak?!?!? Band on the side. Waiting to make it big. I would take Jeff and John home to meet mom. I think they could both pull it off. Nothing quite like watching Jeff give $5 bucks to the guy selling suntan lotion and film on the streets of Chicago. Or John blending in to the crowd to watch the Staple Singers at the World/New World. They are all so "boy next door/ neighbor/ brother... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jff Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Last time I got in a car crash the insurance adjuster looked exactly like Nels' twin brother Alex: Alex Cline I could picture John giving me an estimate on some driveway repairs. Glenn looks like a bus boy at an all-you-can-eat restaurant. Especially when he's sweaty. Michael looks like the guy who comes to your school to promote space camp.

mybenito Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I don't know anybody who rocks a jean jacket quite like Jeff does. Especially a jean jacket with jean pants. I know people who make fun of guys in jean jackets. As if they are 80s throwbacks. I think I would look like an idiot in a jean jacket. But for some reason it works for Jeff. Not just anybody can pull of a jean jacket anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oceanman Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Nels would of been a foot model for sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know people who make fun of guys in jean jackets. As if they are 80s throwbacks. I think I would look like an idiot in a jean jacket. But for some reason it works for Jeff. Not just anybody can pull of a jean jacket anymore. So he'd be a jean jacket saleman? (I've never heard anyone use the term "jean pants," by the way. Interesting.) Nels as a porn star is freaking me out. I must cleanse my brain by suggesting that he'd probably be an excellent transvetite--you know, a real gig like in The Birdcage. the husband who never gets anything done and is always listening music This may be a current side job for him.

lost highway Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I'm gonna try to put them all in education: Tweedy: Assistant Principal (the principal that gets to make jokes) John: Counselor/Psychologist (speaks very softly, has good connection with the difficult kids) Glenn: Elementary school art teacher (teaches kids how to make mandalas and Aztec calendars) Pat: High School Social Studies Teacher (the girls flirt with him and he talks about non violent revolution) Nels: Bio or Physics. Gets bricks broken on his chest and creates a human chain with a light bulb lit at one end and an electrical conductor on the other. (my highschool physics teacher did this and appeared equally zany.) Mikael: Gifted and Talented program. (can't get the smart kids to understand why they have to memorize Shakespeare lines.)
