They wanted to imitate a guy who’s good at doing voices… so they got a guy who’s good at doing voices. It’s not *quite* the same to my ear, but he really is quite good, yes.
So the fact they got me all the way to “not offended” is quite an accomplishment.
I forget whether it was from a story by Tim Powers or Neil Gaiman, but this line stuck with me: “Whoever was with John Belushi the night he died, he died alone.”
