genuinely bizarre to me that more people on tumblr aren't obsessed with dave foley. like come on this man is everything y'all have been asking for. he's covered in blood. he cross-dresses so often one of the things he's most famous for is being extremely attractive as a man and woman. he's an old man. he's obsessed with UFOs. he fully makes out with his male friends for the bit. his daughter posted a photo of him with the caption "he/they of the week" and spreads fake celebrity death rumors about him on twitter. what's not to love?

In case you didn't know...

Chris from Dan vs and Almighty Tallest Purple VAs were in the same show, "Kids In The Hall". And they're besties. Do with this information what you will.

Left is Dave Foley and right is Kevin McDonald (who voiced in alot of things so you can probably spot him anywhere)
