quote of the day

"I just split up with my girlfriend, but like the Japanese say, 'They'll be another one floating by any minute now.'"
-Gilbert Gottfried

Needless to say, Gilbert is no longer the voice of the Aflac duck...

Update! Gilbert's tweet about the firing:

"Japan called me. They said 'maybe those jokes are a hit in the U.S., but over here, they're all sinking.'"

I told that joke to a girl at the bar the other night. Needless to say, I went home alone...
