Wow, that was fast! MrTorso, you're on the ball!

And thanks. I never would have figured that out on my own.

Hello...I'm a MSTie/Rifftrax/CT addict to the bone, and in general, a media glutton.  Being so, I usually get most of the cultural/countercultural references that the jokes are based on.  However, there are a few that have consistently stumped me.  So as my way of saying my first hello, I ask if anyone might please explain to me the following:

Who is the "Nooma Nooma Guy"?
Who or what is "Carrot Top"?
Who is David Blaine?

Inquiring minds that want to be stoned, but can't afford the Ganj any more these days (hence the username) want to know!  :)

I envy your ignorance of the existence of Carrot Top.

Oo, can you help me not know Dane Cook?

Doctor Who?

I really wish he would spend the rest of his life getting kicked in the nuts.

For sure.  But it would have to be televised so we could all watched.  Would be much funnier and more tolerable than his stand up or movies.  Maybe even worth paying for.

It should be "The NUMA NUMA Guy".  Gary Rolsma.  The one immortalized in the Draostea song, "Love Under the Linden Trees",
which I first heard when Al Franken played it as a bumper on his Air America radio show (apparently, he then went onto some
kind of political career somewhere).  "Mya-hee, mya-hoo, mya-ho, mya-ah-hah...".  Don't know why every sports arena and
stadium doesn't use this song, especially in place of Gary "Child Molester" Glitter's over-played "History of the World, Part 2". 
Rolmsa is the guy who, knowingly or otherwise, lip-synched this catchy little Romanian dance song a few years ago in front
of his web-cam.  Very entertaining video.
