RIP Isaac Hayes. Gotta love Wikipedia...

Check it before its changed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_Hayes

Now I don't believe he deserves that.

Also explains why people don't trust Wikipedia.

According to the history, I guess some dick filled the page with repeated "pwned".

One of the greatest strengths of Wikipedia is also its greatest weakness.

He quit South Park when they made too much fun of Scientology. Chef came back as a pedophile robot but Hayes never did the voice again.

Oh duh! It kept bugging me all day today where I heard his name before. Geez, as a South Park fan, I should've known who he was the second I heard his name. :banghead:

Chef being turned into Vader was hilarious.

And the way they dubbed his speech in after Chef "returned" was just as good.   :cheers:

Well technically he said he thought their Scientology episode was funny, but he "quit" while he was incapacitated in the hospital and the Scientology people took the opportunity to quit for him.

You know, it never hit me till I was reading about that last South Park episode with Chef's voice being dubbed, but I never thought about one of Stan's (I think it was Stan, correct me if Im wrong) lines when he says something about remembering Chef as the jolly guy who always broke out into song and that "We shouldn't be mad at Chef for leaving us, we should be mad at that fruity little club for scrambling his brains" talking about the Super Adventure Club but also taking a stab at Scientology.

I need to start paying more attention to TV.

He kind of wasn't in his right mind either, the last couple of years, so it's all real hazy.

Am I in danger of pushing this thread into PnR if I say they're all not in their right minds?

Probably not.  There was a thread around here a couple years ago where Danny was commenting on it and it was fairly funny. 

And, according to Germany, it isn't a religion.  :angel:

I think we're fine. I doubt that anyone is going to come in here and give some pros about Scientology, so its not so much a discussion of Scientology as it is a discussion of mentally unbalanced folks who hang around each other in semi-large groups....

It's awesome that we're allowed to be religious bigots on this forum.  Scientology is a bona fide religion and L. Ron Hubbard was a truly brilliant man.  There's a lot of value to be found in the tech, some of you should learn the truth instead of spouting a bunch of lies.


Damn now its PnR....

Never really figured out why this guy was famous (did one theme song 30 years ago?)



not that it was all he did but that theme tune was shaft, go and listen to it again.

Anything can be a religion, regardless of any society's or any person's acceptance. So many things one wouldn't know was so big - Hayes apparently did more than Shaft, but was the godfather of disco or disco funk or something.
