Seriously? I'm not even sure what the heck you are talking about.

She's young, she's attractive, and she knows her stuff. I doubt TPTB have any problems with her.
Uh, yeah...what the hell?

Thirded or however many that makes. She's quite good and extremely normal.

I've never heard of Dreft the word. (The name seems to date back to 1933 so I'm guessing it was a made-up brand name.) The only reason I've heard of Dreft detergent is that there was a period of time when I thought I was allergic to my laundry detergent and Dreft came up when I researched hypoallergenic options. (I still didn't get this response, BTW.)

Actually, they're hearts. Obviously intended to be erotic... :roll:

I'm gonna explain this joke in the hopes of putting it to rest. Mind you, I'm not condoning it. Here goes:

The current champ is young, attractive, blonde, and wears glasses (glasses, of course, being a well-worn device used in film to make pretty girls appear bookish). She is arguably somewhat underdressed for the role of J! contestant, wearing a sweater plastered with hearts. And her last name is Lips, which sounds like a nom de porn. All of this, combined with the other contestants' casual clothing, makes it appear as though what we saw Friday was not an actual episode of J!, but rather the type of half-hearted facade that might be created at the beginning of a J!-themed adult film.

Per IAFD, "Natalie Lips" is a nom de porn. No, I will not post a link.

I want to thank Vermonter for finally giving me The Burghers of Calais, I would never have got it without his occasional whinging on it. (I look forward to seeing his video, I have money on if he'll mention the appearance of his nemesis/sculpture). (Now if only wagering theory, which he complains about a *lot* more, will stick in my head as easily.)

Plus, I remember on the board (either this one or Sony) someone did mention that there is actually a XXX parody of Jeopardy! (because Rule 34 exists), and it is actually called "This Is Not Jeopardy: A XXX Adult Parody". I had forgotten about it until that mention, but I'm positive whatever boardie was subjected to this knowledge didn't stick around long enough to find out the stars' names and thus didn't supply that information, therefore I have no idea if Natalie Lips (the porn star, not the J! champion) stars in it.

Good discussion. Nothing will bring back the female contestants deterred by Zach Horan like connecting them to porn stars.

I wonder what a male contestant would have to be dressed in to get comparisons to a porn star (a pizza deliveryman?). Also, why is it always porn STARS? Are there no porn character actors?

Yes. And in truth more J! contestants - and fans, no doubt - could be compared to Ron Jeremy than any stars of the industry.

I'd imagine a huge 'fro and a pornstache would do the trick. You know, like Alex Trebek ca. 1978.

I wonder if Natalie is related to a certain author. His most famous book is "Mustaches" by Harry Lips.
