thread for making insulting comments directed at PBS travel show host Rick Steves

“Even my pastor knows I smoke pot,’’

Bourdain is good when he's engaged with the local culture (PDX) or when he hits a top-flight restaurant or two (like the Spain show). Gets pretty boring when they have him do stunts, or travel around to every street food stand in Colombia pretending it's the best food ever (he doesn't even do a passable job of that most of the time).

I like the guy's books and blogs/essays, and want to like the show, but I can't watch more than 15-20 minutes at a time.

but would you get high with rick steves

rick steves would be a blast to "toke up" a marijuana "joint" with

if your passion in life was looking at and talking about notable stained glass windows of History

my parents have a rick steves book on the coffee table or whatever it is what shoul di do

i quite like rick steves. i find his nerdiness charming, if a bit white-bred. and the dude's a 'head- go figure!

harbl smoke w33d out of the book in your parents house imo

if you pass someone on the street who is also wearing pleated khakis you get really excited and try to make eye contact with them

this has made my day

i have a Rick Steves' Scandinavia 2003 ("AS SEEN ON PUBLIC TV") book that my parents got me for my birthday because in 2003 i was expressing a lot of interest in traveling to norway. dad still insists on making a hajj to the homeland with me once i finish stupid grad school.

the book is adorable. all the maps are hand-drawn and there is a terrific photo of Rick Steves on the back cover (he is smiling)

he would put two pens and some sort of card in his shirt front pocket

the best part is the fake smiling for the photo and the i'll finish this one hefeweizen but i'd rather be back at the hostel pulling tubes.

Thanks for trying to make Andrew W.K. look bad, asshole.

Fuck you dude you live off of my tax dollars it should be my civil liberty to decide whether or not I wanna fund PBS but I don't have that choice. Liberals are the last people that should be talking about civil liberty.

It's clearly an anal sex reference. Never once in all his books does he advocate sneaking in back doors.

his books are pretty great and useful actually

true. but on the other hand, he's the nerdiest nerd that ever nerded up a nerd while nerding in a nerd

Yes..I agree, He seems very gay. I’ve know 4 married men some with 5-6 children come out of the closet in their 50’s and 60’s. The Lutheran Church would not accept this, so he stays in the closet. Tragic.

Someone needs to set a boobie trap for Rick Steves and give him the what-for. I do believe he travels for the sole purpose of eating sweets and especially Cheese. Why does Rick Steves like Cheese so much. Yes I would like my plane ticket with Cheese, thank you. Rick Steves toured the Turkish Baths with a hunk of cheese. His 2 favorite things, he was wearing nothing but his comfortable shoes.

.@RollingStone asked me to imagine traveling to Europe — with Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

Jeff, let's go see what a creative and sensible approach to drug policy looks like. Here's our itinerary: https://t.co/e17FCzVwRw pic.twitter.com/GRSmVxubT0

i knew he smoked but didn't realise he was such a big advocate for legalization

Rick Steves and Jeff Sessions walk into an Amsterdam brothel, reeking of Dutch Treat and Heineken sweat. The room goes silent. They peer around with beady red eyes, cracking their knuckles and licking their lips. They are unspeakably horny. Rick unbuttons the top button on his Kirkland brand shirt. "Ladies," he declares with a devious grin, "I'm back. Jefferson and I have come to buy you out."

you get goosebumps every single time you hear "Eye in the Sky" by the Alan Parsons Project even though you listen to it nearly every day, or at least every time you take a ride in your 1991 Ford Tempo

he would, wouldn't he

Don't think sorry's easily said
