    So I admit, I am marginally confused. Is this a Whil Wheaton reference to Family Guy that I just don’t get no matter how many times my friends pat me on my head and say “it will all be okay”?

    Yes here’s the scene (sort of)

    It is. There is a recurring bit where Stewie enunciates the “h” in “Whip” or “Wheaton” and Brian can’t get him to stop.

    This just happened last night:
    me: “I need you to pick up some Redi-Whip.”
    hubs: “Redi-Hwip? Not Cool Hwip?”
    me: “Not Cool Hwip.”
    hubs: “You don’t like Cool Hwip? Hwat kind of hwimsical hwelp are you?”
    me: “…”
    hubs: “Can’t talk now, need to keep hands on the hweel.” [click]

    That’s what I get for being a dick; the “I’m feeling lucky” doesn’t seem to be going to the same place any more. The info is here: http://familyguy.wikia.com/wiki/Cool_Whip

    I was wearing a name tag that said Wil Wheaton on it today, and told everybody I was Wil Wheaton. Somebody said it that way to me.

    You aren’t autographing the Cool Whip in the grocery aisle again, are you?

  16. Mike Douglas says:

    Wil – you should randomly sign those & return them to the cooler.

  17. Marty Mankins says:

    …. and in Stewie’s voice, too

  18. Alan says:

    I see you chose the Lhite version.

    I can not walk past the freezer case without saying that. I also try to avoid looking at the Hweat Thins.

    My friend in high school used to laugh at me for saying “wh” instead of just “w” in words like that! I agree with Stewie. “Wheaton” should not be pronounced “Weaton.” The “h” is there for a reason.

    Wait this is made by Kraft. Then why the hell haven’t we got Cool Whip in this country (UK)

    WHAT are you trying to say Wil Wheaton? What I ask you?

    Nice. Thanks for the smile Whil. And for a random reminder.
    A few weeks ago, my house:
    Hubby, coming into my office and smiling all too sweetly: “Honey, what does Patrick Stewart say about sponges?”
    Me, with only a second’s confusion, despite the apparent randomness of the question: “Dammit! Did I leave the sponge in the sink again?” (Hubby hates it when I do this.)
    Hubby: “Yes. You did.”
    Me: “I’m sorry. I’ll try to remember to put it in the dish thingy.”
    Hubby: “Thank you.” Then, (say it with me now), “After all, a dry sponge is a happy sponge.”

    HAHAH! Yes, the way Stewie says it just started going through my head. Thanks Wil.

    Wil,
    Saw you on Big Bang last night. Fun episode (as always) but it looks like the writers are turning you back into Evil Wil. I mean – come on – posting something so revealing? That was mean. Wish they’d give you more to do – like your own spin-off…
    “The Evil Wil Show.”
    (Don’t forget to come and get your Guiness next time your near Fort Laudedale. I keep reminding you, but you keep forgetting. Man. You must be getting old.)

  30. MarkSchneider says:

    As long a future version of you doesn’t shoot me in the leg, I will pronounce it however you want me to…

  31. Mike Cherniske says:

    Wil, have you seen this yet? The fact is, if this happened, I would totally take your word for it!
