- DaveyDeadite, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15Anyone remember when he was on conan, on celebrity secrets?
"When I guest starred on Silver Spoons I asked Ricky Schroeder if he was the kid who cried a lot in the movie The Champ. He said yes. Then he asked me if I cried when I saw the movie. I said 'No.' I lied."
"During the filming of Rocky III whenever I did a scene with Meredith Burgess, I pretended I was Batman, and he was the Penguin, and we were filming an episode of the old Batman TV show. It was fun to pretend."
"I remember one time I tried to pity this fool. He told me his name was Jeff. He was married. He pulled out his wallet and showed me three pictures of his kids; Kelly, Robert, Brittany. Real cute kids. Don't get too close man. It's hard to pity a fool if you get too close."
"In Rocky III my character's name was Clubber Lang. I wanted him to be cutesy Mike Sunshine. The producers said no. That made me sad."
"People wonder why I call myself Mr. T. One dude asked, 'does the T stand for tough?' I said no. Another dude asked if the T stands for my last name, Tureaud. No it does not. The 'T' in Mr. T stands for tuna. T loves tuna."
"I remember when I guest-starred on 'Diff'rent Strokes.' I said to the director, 'When do I get to do my scene with Tootie?' He said, 'No man, that's a different show.' I never did get to do that scene with Tootie." - purplegrog, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12dugg for the blurb
- threepio, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Dear Mr. T,
I recently received some bad advice. Looking to clean several kilograms of gold chain, I was told to microwave them. All of my jewelry is now black. What do I do?
Sincerely,
Pitiable Fool - antipro, on 10/12/2007, -9/+15hes Ice T's father.

http://www.orangephotography.com/images/full/2/mr_t.jpg - RichPowers, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Finally! These stupid ass advice shows finally bear some fruit.
I only hope Mr. T drives around in the ole A-Team van and tells kids not to do drugs, eat their veggies, drink milk, and get plenty of exercise all while shooting up bad guys with a giant machine gun…just like the old days. - dkarlson, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Actually, according the article about him on Wikipedia, he gave up the gold chains. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr_T
Edit: I pity the fool who doesn't read the Wiki. :) - GreenLantern33, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8"The `t' stands for talking,"
ahhhhhaahahahahaha - dave830, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6dork, the energy you used to type your lame message could have been spent googling him. "Mr. T". 5 key strokes. Sheesh.
I suppose you don't know them Duke boys either. - theblackgecko, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I pity the fool that doesn't watch the Mr. T show. Finally, a host who will cut the jibba-jabba.
- nesagwa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Anyone who has never seen The A-Team needs some pity. Some major pity.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4how many ways are we going to trick mr t and drug him so we can get him on a plane.
lol awesome show. - shindig111, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6I pity the fool who posted this....
- antipro, on 10/12/2007, -5/+9wow I can't believe people actually dugg my comment back there. thats one of the lamest things I've ever said
whats wrong with you people?!! - dtfinch, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4That'll be awesome.
Obligatory link: http://www.MrTvsEverything.com/ - SushiK, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3True, apparently Mr T is a nice guy, but he has the reputation of being one of the biggest tough guys on the planet.
Also The Mr T Experience is the best band ever. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Mr T= B.A. Baracus.. i really hope he gets the a-team back together.
- LR2_, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3He is going to be on TV Land.
- tjl2015, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4It has to really suck being Mr. T...Think about it for a sec...most actors hate it if they get type cast. He has not only had the same on-screen role for 25 years, but it has become his real-life persona. I wonder if this is what Stephen Colbert is going to be like in 25 years. Colbert has become famous portraying one particular role, even appearing at the White House Correspondents Dinner. Imagine being stuck impersonating Bill O'Reilly for the rest of your life...I really don't think there is a better definition of Hell on Earth.
- deusdiabolus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2MR. T FOR PRESIDENT!
- Pernz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This is by far, the best news I've heard today. Mr. T's own TV show where he goes around talking 'jibba-jabba.' I can't wait!
- sremick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._T.
"In 2005, Mr. T announced he would never wear his chains again saying, “No, T, you can never wear your gold again. It's an insult to God." He came to this decision after seeing the effects of Hurricane Katrina. Mr. T also donated a great deal of clothing and money to Katrina victims. On October, 2006 [1] his new reality television show for TV Land, called I Pity the Fool [2] begins, which will find the devout Christian assisting those in need."
also...
"Mr. T was once reported to be earning around $80,000 a week for his role in The A-Team and getting $15,000 for personal appearances, but by the end of the 1990s, he was appearing only in the occasional commercial, largely because of health problems (In 1995, he was diagnosed with T-cell lymphoma.). He still seeks acting jobs and has had small roles in several films. He frequently appears on the TBN Christian television series. He has appeared in commercials for MCI's 1-800-COLLECT collect-call service and on Late Night with Conan O'Brien.
Mr. T is currently training for an appearance in Rocky Balboa, the sixth installment in the Rocky series, where he reprises his role as Clubber Lang, though he will appear as a commentator only." - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Dugg simply because of the tag line.
- pennyfx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I dug this story just for the description.

- cbrack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Recycled celebs never last long... Remember how they brought back MC Hammer to make fun of him? That didn't last long. Janet Jackson and her nipple shields came back, but thats the last anyone's heard of her... I really wish certain celebrities would just stay gone. Pitty da fool who wants Prince to come back.
- Nougat, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4My personal age detector: "I ordered orange juice and the waitress brought me Tang. What did she think I was - an astronaut?"
I refuse to have any dealings with people who don't get that. - swagy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2You know old stars never die they just recycle, in T's case gold prices are up. He might need the work to keep up the bling.
- TheRappingShoe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Remember kids, when buying new clothes,
*Try them ON before YOU buy.
*Ensure THE shop will GIVE you A CASH REFUND if you NEED to return ANYTHING.
*Don't POINT and LAUGH if YOU see Mr T buying a SPORTS bra.
And KEEP AWAY FROM MY BINS! - Hydraulix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is great!!
"Try my Mr. T...Tea." - republicoftexas, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2This is gonna be great! I wonder what channel he will be on. Mr. T really is the man!

- Aniphx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wow, I don't think this guy will ever die...
Sounds like it might be entertaining. - defectDS, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I met him at a Ralph's in Studio City out here in LA. He whiped out a pen and a picture of himself from when he was... Mr. T. Of course, this is when I was unknowledgable of his television legacy. :P
- monsieurgrand02, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I'm going to not digg this simple because its about Mr. T.
- Bogtha, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I once saw a video of Mr T ages ago. He was giving advice to kids.
Apparently, if you are walking down the street and you fall over, to avoid looking stupid, you should just start breakdancing and pretend that's what you meant to do all along.
No word of a lie. He said that. I swear. You can probably find it if you google for it.
And no, this doesn't belong on Digg. Lame. - Chubs879, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2I see an A-Team runion on his show... anyone?
- MackPrime, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2sweet jesus yes.
