"Thank you all for being here. I would love to make this event the best music and comedy cruise in the world! Let's sack those hacky 311 fans, prompt the KISS Army's mascara to run wild and tumble dry the leg warmers of the 80s cruise passengers, causing them to shrink." Patrick Monahan, Train front man and legendary Baccarat player, announces proudly, holding the microphone like a baby chipmunk from Happy Tree Friends. (I would love to see a Happy Tree Friends version of Friends where Joey bites off Chandler's pinky and sells it on the appendage black market to Ross for a pack of cigarettes and a free punch in the face from Ross.) (Honey, I Shrunk the Leg Warmers would be the best science fiction comedy of all time. Honey, I Shrunk the Leg Warmers would win an Oscar, a Razzie and an ESPY. Honey, I Shrunk the Leg Warmers is the type of movie that the writers came up with the title first and were like, "OK now that we have our jumping off point, let's go binge watch Cheers." (Honey, I Shrunk the Leg Warmers exists in a Post (Sam) Malone universe in which the main crux of the show is to see whoever can get Norm blacked out the quickest without him noticing.)
Champagne glasses full of Arizona Green Tea, Tito's and shards of Vertical Horizon records on vinyl clink as the cruise collectively toasts in celebration of good times hanging out with rock stars in the sun and seeing their Cool Whip-free dreams come true before their Oakleys.
