Tim Allen Appreciation Month: Day Two

today i had a stall at camberwell market & tim proved to be a major drawcard. he hung out near the records & totally ground (foot) traffic to a halt. 

a little girl stopped & screamed to her dad up ahead "DAD, IT'S...IT'S THE SANTA CLAUSE!! DAD! DAD!". dad was a total hater, grabbed his little girl, shot me a look of concern & bolted.

my personal favourite was the guy in his 20s who yelled to his girlfriend "SARAH, SARAH LOOOOOOK!! LOOK, IT'S TIM ALLEN, I LOVE THAT GUY". girlfriend kept walking, pretending not to know him. there's no shame in loving tim, sarah, no shame at all. your boyfriend knows the score, allow yourself to love as freely as him.

when i got home, i watched most of the first season of tim's magnum opus, home improvement. the kids are too saccharine, tim crowbars the catchphrases in at every opportunity, and tim's wife jill is a raging bitch, to the point of coming across as emotionally abusive. the scenes where jill & her best friend karen berate tim relentlessly DROVE ME TO TEARS (you think i'm kidding, i'm not even). the below is my visual summary of season one.
