    Boy have times changed! That had to be, what, 40 years ago at this point? 🙃

      Dunno. How long ago was Howard Dean ending his political career with an ill-timed awkward scream and Dan Quayle flushing his career down the toilet for misspelling “potatoe?” Was that before color TV?

        Dean’s scream wasn’t ill-timed, just ill-recorded. They were using a noise-dampening microphone, so he was basically shouting over the screams of the crowd. But we couldn’t hear it because it wasn’t part of the recording.
