Anything with 'bert' added on the end of a word, or anywhere for that matter, is a fan code for an excited Adam reference. In the DadBert case it means getting all excited about Adam's Dad, Ebert or if he is on twitter milestogeaux. Spam is when someone overloads an electronic feed, such as email, with unwanted or repetitive information . Mashed potatoes is a little harder to define. There is the obvious food reference, actual mashed or creamed potatoes but that is not what is meant here. In pop culture or here on Atop, what it refers to is an unproven theory or wild speculation. The reference is from the movie 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind'. Richard Dreyfus, the male lead in the movie, has seen an alien spaceship which left a hazy message in his mind and he can't shake the message. He is so obsessed that he begins to build what he sees in his mind out of the mashed potatoes his wife served for dinner while his family looks on in confusion and pity. So when someone refers to 'mashed potatoes' it is a wild speculation based on minimal data. Thank you LindaG23 and tinafea, aww! so I'm spamming many times here .. oops ..yeah, I remember I saw the clips of the movie, but still did not know what to attach it to ..now I think that I understand something of that .. LOL, I know Adam's dad's nickname ...tinafea I'm happy for you..great.. After you quoted me, I added this little piece of information ... ![]() |

The mountain that Richard Dreyfuss was trying to create out of mashed potatoes. This is where the aliens came to contact the humans.  |

Wild speculation?! Minimal data?! Did you not see the end of that movie?! He was right! He found the location! The spaceship came! "Wild speculation, my ass! Wait til ya get a load of me"  Shot, I knew I missed something when I fell asleep in that movie. :  Well, there's mashed potatoes and then there's double-stuffed loaded mashed potatoes with a side of plausible conjecture. |
