Madeleine: Who is Martin Short?
Leila: I don't know. I know that Billy Crystal did movies.They're kind of similar. Do you know who Billy Crystal is?
Leila: No, not really.Do you ever watch the Academy Awards?

Aaron: Billy Crystal?Are you a fan?
I like The Princess Bride. That's all I know him from. And hosting the Academy Awards.Who was he in Princess Bride?
"Mawidge…is sacwid." That guy.Did you watch last night, was it funny?
Yeah, he did a "What is the Audience Thinking" thing. That's the only bit I saw that was good. Oh, and he was in Analyze This.I've never seen Analyze This.
Don't. It's not good.

Patrick: No, I don't.

No, I never watch it.It was Billy Crystal.
Oh, yeah, I know who that is. He's kinda weird.Do you know his movies?
All I remember is that the Fairly Odd Parents made fun of him as "Billy Crystal Ball." That's all I know about Billy Crystal.

Sanela: Billy Crystal, I think.Did you watch it?
Eh. Just a few minutes.Was he funny?
A little bit, yeah.Have you seen any of his movies? Yeah, but I don't know what the names of them are.
He was in When Harry Met Sally. I liked watching that one.What about the awards, were they interesting?
I usually don't watch the whole thing. Only a few scenes of it. I think it's quite boring. It's not casual, it's overdone. A lot of the winners are people I've never heard of before.

Student with Megaphone: Can I ask YOU a question about Palestine?Um. Maybe.
Do you know how much money America spends on the occupation of the Gaza Strip?First, do you know who Billy Crystal is?
Is he for the-—wait, that's a comedian.

Matt: Crystal.Billy Crystal?
You know that?Yeah, I know that. Did you watch?
A little bit of it. I'm not a particularly huge fan, but he's kind of funny, I suppose. Not my generation, but he's OK.That's what I've been finding, is that no one knows who he is at all.
Really? That's surprising. I know who he is, I mean, I've seen a few of his movies.Did you think he was funny, when he hosted?
No, not really. I just watched it to see who was gonna win, I suppose. My aunt was watching it, so, I kind of had to. I thought that some of the jokes he said were funny, he had a few that related to Occupy Wall Street and other current events so that was good, but other than that it was a little corny.Previously – The Weirdest Thing You've Jerked it to Online
