They say the brightest people rip off all their good ideas from somebody. Well, OK, maybe no one actually SAYS that...but they think it. And thats the case with our new department, "JUMBLE!". Its ripped off directly from a great guy named Scott Saavedra and his bril magazine, COMIC BOOK HEAVEN.
HIT IT!!!
Sadly enough, the upcoming #10 is the death issue for some sad reason.So, that said, go quick like to Scotts website, and buy EVERYTHING that has his name on it. Especially all copies of CBH. You won't be sorry. But dammit, that doesn't mean we can't carry on the grand tradition of finding weirdness wherever! And that means on the net, kids. So without further ado....
Since this IS a Beatles website at heart, we'll start out with this question, and this question only, so pay attention: WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH JOHN IN THIS PICTURE?
I went to the store, and all they have now is LIQUID Mr. Bubble. Damn it all, Mr. Bubble is a pink powder! The world sucks now, kids.
OK, so...FACT toothpaste is sponsored by a FICTIONAL character?
Young Dirty Harry Dept.: More proof times have changed, kids: When mom asks where Billy will shoot off his new BB Gun, Dad answers "In the family room!" Of COURSE!! The message seems to be, if you can't go outside and shoot something, get your family involved and take out your agressions in the den. Yes, EVERYBODY needs an 'indoor range'. Sheesh.
The 'You Don't Have to be Smart if You're Strong' Dept: In another episode of the 70's insanity that was the Hostess ads, Aqualad correctly points out that the space capsule is 'sinking instead of floating'! REALLY. And the astronauts don't fare too well either. 'underwater aliens'? Whats NASA teaching these guys? And how does Aquaman prove to these dudes that theyre from 'your own planet earth' (hey, pal, last time I checked, UNDERWATER was also on that there 'planet earth')? Well of course, they prove it by givivng them Hostess Fruit Pies! Well, Pies!! That clears up EVERYTHING! Of course, Buzz Aldrin there points out how much he loves the crust. Do people underwater REALLY keep stocked with fruit pies? And WHY? And what have the astros leaned? That space was OK, but PIES ARE BEST! Sure. Thanks for wasting a billion dollars to find this out.
I pity the fool that didn't buy a Mr. T Chia Pet! Yes, this is a real product, produced as a promo for TV Land. You've gotta admit, a Mr. T Chia head makes a heck of a lot more sense than a Tweety or Elmer Fudd Chia-Pet.
I've heard of gay as a two dollar bill, but this is taking it rather extreme. Apparently the point was for gay folk to use two dollar bills at DisneyLand so Walt would know who REALLY supports the House of Mouse. Did it work? Who knows.
Umm...isn't this an oxymoron, kinda like 'jumbo shrimp', or 'near-miss'? Lo and behold tho', it's a real group, and if you wanna join up, they have a keen website here. Brought to you by the same folk who brung ya 'Anorexics for McDonalds'.
Look folks, I love dogs, but theres something deeply wrong and disturbing about this. Its like this dog is the canine Jon Benet Ramsey.
Hey, I'm all for you wacky college kids and your need to protest, but listen brother: The French AIN'T HERE! And indeed, the USA is #1 in many ways, but exactly how do you mean? #1 in fast food consumption? Yes. #1 in the world porn industry? Guilty.
I know these days, John Travolta can be talked into darn near anything, but even in 1977, did he feel a postcard book would be a good career move? Oh, well, it's OFFICIAL, so that makes the difference. But what makes it official exactly? Does there NEED TO BE an 'official' postcard book? Does the postal service consider these 'official' postcards? And did ANYONE actually send someone a Travolta postcard? Only L. Ron Hubbard knows for sure, and he ain't talking.
And finally this time around; the banner below says it all:
