Last Night Charles Barkley Told A Story About Why He Travels With His Own Bar of Soap, After “Almost Losing” A Small One The Hotels Provide. Shaq’s Response Was Gold
First off, Charles Barkley never ceases to amaze. Guy has a hilarious story regarding everything. And this is just the shit he tells on the air. Can you imagine having drinks with him and getting to hear the stuff not fit for television?
Secondly, I fuckin love the caller's question. What a mind-bender.
If soap falls on the floor, is the soap dirty? Or is the floor clean?

(Sidebar - speaking of soap, I've wondered this many times. How does soap that isn't that "antibacterial" liquid soap technically even clean? Is it just a germ sponge that spreads more germs around? Anybody know?)
Thirdly, as a product of an all-boy's high school, my mind immediately went somewhere else like it does anytime the topic of a bar of soap in the shower gets brought up.
It's called trauma. Sorry.
But upon further review, I guess there are some perks that come with not being 6 foot 6 or above. Namely, having a normal-sized butthole that you don't have to worry about travel-sized amenities accidentally getting lost inside it. Talk about anxiety.
Lastly, Shaq's reaction to this was gold. As usual.
These guys are the best. Ernie really does have the best job in television.
p.s. - The 60 Minutes piece on Barkley a few weeks ago was great if you missed it.
p.p.s. - Michael Jordan needs to get off his high horse and make amends with Barkley. Holding a grudge with his former bff over him saying he's a shitty owner, (aka he truth), is the epitome of cutting off your nose to spite your face.
