Seems to me that Mike Rowe is full of it--witty humor, that is!!

For everyone on the boards here, what's your favorite "Rowe-ism"....quote, saying, etc, from either the show or message boards?

Fire away!

I love when he slips back to his Baltimore, western-shore youth, and says things like:

"That boy ain't right"

and

"Can't see a daggone thing."

Of course, the occasional mis-pronunciation of "weter" comes out now and then as well.

Can't help himself, I'm sure.

Chris, one time eastern-shore resident. Uhm... Correction. Delmarva resident. I lived in DE, not MD.

The word "Poo" is always funny to hear!

A man who deliberately covers himself in poo, is not sexy. - Mike Rowe

My other favorite quote/moment was when he made the shark biologist admit he couldn't have done it without him.

The chick sexer was my favorite. Betcha cant guess why... I love it here in Webster City, Iowa! Is that where I am? Idaho, maybe? Being transplanted for security purposes ..Madame Pres you know.. is good. I'm adjusting well.

"...well Ashlyn, I'm only one man" Yes, you are. Now get to work, sweetcheeks.


Ash
Chick sexer extraordinaire

Cathy now owns the best line of the entire series. I can live with that, cause Cathy is so d*rn (is that a trigger word?) cute and sweet. Kick that pirate a**, baby!

Lesse, if Ash is first, and Cathy is 2nd, can I be 3rd?

Get in line, Zulu. I've been around here a lot longer than you have been, and I'm still down around #15 or so.

And that's not even counting the guys. Wink

In the episode w/Holly he said something like, "I'm just burning to get dirty." or maybe it was, "I'm burning to do a dirty job!"

Rowe-ism (noun): humorous and/or colorful phrase or sentence that describes a person, place, or event.

Dictionary entries are not my area of expertise.
