I am on haitus from blogging at my own site. But I did have to share this. I might have been a peacekeeper in the Balkans, and I might have fought in Afghanistan…but I couldn’t hang in this conflict.

Well, if Godzilla and Shaq scare you, Robin looked lonely…
Buncha posers.
Just when I thought they might have forgotten Chuck Norris….
But it was nice to see Cowboy Curtis and Fred Rodgers get their props.
Sorry Major John, you just can’t hang with those guys. Maybe you could appear with The Tick, David Carradine, and The Rifleman, but not with those A-list badasses. Sorry.
You’re just too fucking human and real and noble and shit. Shaq and Jamby are on a whole different level.
Aaron Carter.
Brilliant.
When I heard “opened up a can of Shaq-fu” I knew I had found a classic.
Jomby AND the Big Blue Meanie. Brrr…!
Chuck Norris nailing Indiana, then squeezing his head off. Pricless
… and the last horse crosses the finish line.
There this awesome flash movie out there too. It’s a remix of an old Japanese imported video game, with a bunch of photoshopped pictures included. “All your base” or something.
All your sarcasm are belong to us.
All above commenters who were not as up on this as Techie – take his comment as your admonishment to get with it too.
Over at Ace of Spades, one of the commenters suggested a new topic tag after Ace’s incredulous reaction to the Trogdor game, and in fact the entire Homestar Runner website:
“Ace Discovers the Internet”
I’m guessing every site needs one of these.
Hey, I’m a graduate student, I can afford to “be with it”, what with the long nights in the lab with only the flickering screen to keep me company.
I’m also allowed to be snarky. It’s in the handbook somewhere…
Lonely? I don’t get it. I get lots of babes.
This is how the Major maintains his reputation as a gentleman.
A lot of guys would have typed something along the lines of: “Sorry I was off fighting a war while you kept up on all the latest Internet fads, Techie. Guess you’ve shown us who the coolest guy around here is!”
But not Major John.
(And Techie: I’m just glad you posted before I did, or I’d be sitting in your spot.)
Actually, Techie, I would like to apologize for the second remark – I should have left it at “all your sarcasm belong to us” – thus leaving it at two harmless snarks and a graceful conclusion. But I didn’t, so – sorry ‘bout that. Guess I’m still steamed about Edwards nonsense for Memorial Day…and my normal temper frayed.
It hurts my heart to see Major John apologize for NOTHING.
Major, your display of temper was… invisible. And Techie, nicely done. Bravo! Bravo! Nothing but good manners around this place this fine morning.
