who the fuck was this year’s olympic mascot?!?!?!
written by john on 09/02/08 2 comments


did the olympics just happen? i mean, i saw something on tv this summer that kind of looked like the olympics… but it couldn’t have because THERE WAS NO FUCKING OLYMPIC MASCOT!!!!!!!!!!!

i don’t know if you guys remember but back when we were kids it seemed like the actual games were secondary to what ever dumb ass character was chosen to represent them. remember back in ‘96 when they picked that izzy guy… he was like this blue thing and… and i guess there’s no other way to really describe him, he really was just this blue thing and i guess his eyes were supposed to be the olympic rings or something.

but whatever, he was slapped on every bit of merchandise imaginable. if alf fucked michelle tanner their baby would be izzy the olympic mascot (and by the way… slash fic idea!). he even had a super nintendo game!

but now there are no olympic mascot video games because i don’t even know who the fucking olympic mascot is. what’s wrong with you chinese government? you’ve enslaved so many children, can’t you put one of them to work designing the ultimate olympic mascot? an olympic mascot that will tower over all the weak willed western mascots? an olympic mascot that will drive a tank right through olypic mascot square crushing the skulls of ronny and roni the racoons, paloma the dove and blaze the colorful pheonix?

sorry asians, you aren’t the world

these japanese people do a pretty great job of impersonating all the really big names from “we are the world,” but come on rice eaters, are your big ol’ brains so busy doing math that you can’t figure out the real charm of this 80’s classic are all the random non-singers thrown into the mix?

where’s oriental dan aykroyd, guys? until I see a slant eyed ghostbuster, I’m declaring this video a bigger disaster since the last time one of you drove on the freeway!  ~high five me!~

nintendo cereal: a video game you can eat?!
written by eric on 08/12/08 2 comments


if you were popular in the 80’s then two things would inevitably
happen. 1.) you’d become a breakfast cereal. 2.) you’d become a
nintendo game. given those two facts. was there any ever doubt that
this would happen…

the nintendo cereal system wasn’t just a meal — it was a full fledged
video game playing break-stravaganza-fast, magic-licously combining
the awesomeness of sugar-based cereal and the awesomeness of nintendo.
with the nintendo cereal system you were playing your breakfast and
eating your nintendo!

i just hope the marshmallows aren’t in another fucking castle.

rowan atkinson is “spider-plant man”
written by geoffrey on 07/01/08 leave a comment


not getting enough comic book movies this summer?  you’re right! batman, hulk, iron man, and their respective parody versions in the upcoming disaster movie, don’t hold a candle to “spider-plant man,” which was a silly parody made for bbc’s comic relief in 2005.  just remember: when you see dna on the screen, it means nasty things are happening.

“spider-plant man” - part 1
