It's a glancing mention and not necesarily the most flattering but there it is.

May not be flattering, but it is funny.

Plus there is no such thing as bad publicity.

Firefly reference aside (I don't find it all that unflattering, since it's mostly true), I nominate this as the funniest thing ever said by a non BDH:

Quote:

The worst was the rodeo. In between bouts of professional cattle bothering, they had very brief interviews with some of the homeliest men God put in the saddle. The interviews all started with copious whooshing and blurring and some sort of artsy, washed-out, high-contrast effect that made the interviewees look like Ghost Riders on the Talk Show. Trust me, these were not people who needed to be any whiter.


Hee. "Professional cattle bothering."

How I long for the days when a nature show meant long shots of herd animals being chased by helicopters for no apparent reason while an old man tried to sell you insurance.

Gasp, wheeze, splutter. Too, too true.
