The"X" ate my balls phenomenon

*kyabetsu* · 04-11-2004, 08:54 PM

so... i've known for a while about the classic "Mr. T ate my balls" website. it's pretty darn funny. what i DIDN"T know was just how many spin offs it had spawned. heck. i even found a "TMNT ate my balls" site. and in case you're wondering, those options in the survey... they were all real links i found. some didn't work, but eh. the page DID exist at some point!

but i DID find a wonderful "He-Man Ate My Balls" that had me in stitches. mostly b/c i can hear Adam, Prince of Eternia saying things like "MUST. BREAK. FREE. MUST. EAT... BALLS!"

the link is here: http://members.aol.com/skadavid/heman.html

but for those of you too lazy to click it, allow me to give you one of my favorite panels:

Oh man... that was pretty funny.

I was really torn between Rainbow Bright and Ewoks, and R.B. is still at 0, so you can figure it out

Mandela, totally.

Didn't these hit their zenith back in 97'? I remember seeing Mars Pathfinder once.

*shrugs*

yeah... they're prolly the ancient leavings of some mid-90's fleeting trend. you're right, matt.

but. i still get a laugh out of 'em.

PARTIES LIKE IT'S 1999!!

...besides. the 90's can't be THAT bad. they brought us the first wave of TMNT cartoons...

I'm not laughing, actually, I'm cringing. *twitch* I think I need a therapist now

*Drtooth* · 04-12-2004, 12:20 PM

Ugh... I never got the point... it seems like another pointless bathroom joke to me...

Ca Ca... pee pee... hah hah hah... not funny.

I do know of a satirical version a friend e-mailed me...

oh piffle. EVERYONE needs a therapist.

and yes. of course. how silly of me. how DARE i drag infantile toilet humor into these hallowed halls of the technodrome general discussion forum. heh. Goodness knows... THAT"S never happened before. it's usually so intellectual around here. We're all pratically MENSA members.

*Drtooth* · 04-12-2004, 01:25 PM

Not saying it's infintile... just saying it's neither funny nor original....

Bathroom humor is okay, but only if it's done in an original, clever way...

dude. read the first post again. i never claimed any of this stuff was "ORIGINAL." While there are members of the drome too young and/or too sheltered to have seen this before... you've got no arguement about the originality. this stuff's been done all over.

as for whether or not it's funny? well... that's a personal thing, ain't it? i can't and won't force you to laugh or even enjoy it in that guilty "this is stupid but it makes me smirk" way.

so meh. sorry you don't like the joke. pardon the rest of us who thought it was worth a chuckle.

*Kid Icarus* · 04-12-2004, 03:32 PM

I'm with Kya... this was/is damn funny!

Then again, my sense of humor is very... strange...

*The Defibrillator* · 04-13-2004, 11:28 AM

hehehehe.

Good job, you made me chuckle.
