Media Monday.

Another Monday is upon us. Which means it's time to delve back into the 80's and watch some classic G.I.Joe. But before I talk about episodes 31-35, I wanted to mention the G.I.Joe Retaliation. The first Joe movie, which I never really watched, was badly received. From I did see I can understand why. Having said that the new movie looks like it will be amazing check out the Trailer here.

Awesome Fat Guy of the Week.

It's Friday and that means Awesome Fat Guy of the Week. This week I felt like doing something a little different. Instead of touting the accomplishments of a celebrity or historical figure I will instead demonstrate the Awesome of the everyday Awesome Fat Guy. These guys may have never had a number one song, comedy special, or won an award but these pictures and videos capture their Awesome none the less.

Damn!! Thursday.

When Thursday comes around, I find that I have dozens of links to stories that are Damn!! worthy. At least from afar. When I look closer and actually roll the story around in my head those dozens of stories shrink down to just a handful. What I am trying to say is that I don't just throw a few links together and call it a day. No I start with a a lot of links and then take a few and throw them together and call it a day. You see. It's totally different. In case you are wondering the cat in the above picture weighs in at 40 pounds. You can read about it here.

Web Wednesday.

Instead of focusing on one particular Web Entertainer this week I decided to do another random web video post. I like to think of these posts as Wasted Wednesdays. Sometimes you just want to waste some time. What better way than to do it on the Internet. That's what it's for anyway. Isn't it? That's a rhetorical question. It is. Take a look after the break to see just how right I am.

A few months ago I did a post on the old Battle Beasts toy line. At the close of the post I mentioned that Diamond Select had plans to release a new line of Battle Beasts. In fact they had a countdown clock ticking off the days until the return of the line. That clock ran down a few days ago. As such let's take a look at just what is on the horizon for the Battle Beasts. Let's call this Battle Beasts 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Media Monday.

I skipped two weeks of Media Monday. I am sorry about that. But, I'm back so let's get to the next 5 episodes of G.I.Joe.

Awesome Fat Guy of the Week.

I recently stumbled upon a pair of British TV personalities called the Hairy Bikers. These two men have presented a number of food/travel shows. Over the last few weeks I have sought out their past works and have thoroughly enjoyed them. So I decided the best thing I could do, would be to grant the honor of being Awesome Fat guys to them. So, with out further ado, the Hairy Bikers are the Awesome Fat Guys of the Week.

Damn!! Thursday.

It's Thursday. You know what that means. Let's get to it. The above picture is a baby parrot. It's supposed to look like that. Doesn't make it any less ugly. Sadly it's been a slow week. Not much to look at but I'll do my best.

Web Wednesday.

If you watch a lot of Internet shows then you know that many Internet entertainers create very over the top personas for themselves. Normally these personas are amplified versions of the presenter. Sometimes these personalities are so over the top so deviant that you wonder if any of it is real. Today's subject has portrayed a persona just like that. He does it so well that you find yourself wondering how much of it is real. Let's take a look at Bennett the Sage.

As a kid the toys I gravitated to were simple action figures, mainly G.I.Joes, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and random comic book figures. As such I missed out on a lot of the more interactive/creative toys. Such as the Creepy Crawlers that you see above. I actually thought that the Creepy Crawlers were a 1980's creation but I was wrong. Let's take a look at the surprisingly long and deep history of the Creepy Crawlers.

Awesome Fat Guy of the Week.

I've been fat all my life. Which means that before I grew into being a Fat Guy I was Fat Boy. In fact my mother was once approached by a man who wanted to put me into a Fat Boys music video. She declined due to my shy nature. A missed opportunity. Thanks to that I've always remember the trio of rappers. So today I am focusing my post on the Fat Boys. The question is are they Awesome Fat Guys? Let's find out.

Damn!! Thursday.

The above picture may not stand out but you should click it. If you do you will read a funny and possibly infuriating detention note. Is it worthy of Damn!! Thursday? Probably not, but I found it funny. I can assure you that this week's Damn!! Thursday will deliver on the shock and awe. Don't believe me? Click through and find out.

Web Wednesday.

In this edition of Web Wednesday I'll be talking about one of my favorite Internet Entertainers Oancitizen. Most of the Web shows I watch center around either things that I enjoy such as comics, toys, Sci-Fi, and genre films,or subjects that I am far removed from. These include Pop Music, Video Games, and Art Films. That's right the intelligent cinema found mostly in college film classes and art house theaters is Oancitizen's subject of choice.

While doing research for last week's M.U.S.C.L.E. post I came across a very similar toy-line. A line that I don't remember ever hearing about and never had first hand. Which, after taking a look at the toys, is rather sad. The series, called "Monster In My Pocket", follows in line with the small unpainted, non-poseable, and collectible figures I spoke about last week. In fact this series is often cited along with M.U.S.C.L.E. as a major influence by the makers of O.M.F.G., S.L.U.G., and Z.O.M.B.I.E.S.

Awesome Fat Guy of the Week.

I've been on the Internet for a long time. During the years I have seen things. Some have been disturbing, some have been depressing, and some have been disgusting, but very few have stayed with me. Yesterday I saw something that I can't just shrug off. I won't go into detail but it broke my heart. Having said that I need something to make me smile. Maybe a Comedian. No I need something more than that. A really funny Comedian. No, more than that. A really fat, really funny, Comedian. No, even more than that. I need a Comedian who is so fat and so funny that I would have to describe him as an Awesome Fat Guy. Good thing today is Friday. This edition of Awesome Fat Guy of the Week is on Gabriel Iglesias.

Damn!! Thursday.

So I just recently hit 10,000 page views. Don't know why to say about that except DAMN!!. So, yeah it's Thursday, which means it's time to search the Internet for the weird, interesting, funny, and disturbing. Let's see what I found. Image from here.

Due to my new found interest in independent toys, thanks to the amazing Glyos series, I have become more aware of small static figures. A lot of smaller "Art Toys" fall into that category, due to how easy and inexpensive they are to make. The funny thing is I have a history with this type of toy. Actually most people my age, well at least guys, do. Growing up in the 80's there was a line of small non-posable figures that were everywhere. They weren't insanely popular but they were omnipresent. That line was called M.U.S.C.L.E. and that is what I will be talking about today.

Media Monday.

Another Monday another 5 episodes of G.I.Joe. I don't have anything to put here so let's just get to the episodes.

Awesome Fat Guy of the Week.

Another Friday is upon us. As such it is time to highlight yet another massively awesome man of mass. Or as I have taken to calling them, the Awesome Fat Guy of the Week. Originally I had planned on speaking about a comedian but, as usually happens, plans changed. This Sunday is Wrestlemania 28. The WWE inducts people into it's Hall of Fame the day after the big show. Hence today's subject. Yokozuna.
