right, so for whatever reason, destro from the gi joe cartoon pops in my head, and i think to myself, “jefke, what was he deal with destro and how the fuck did he talk if his head was made of metal. god the baroness was hot in the pre-new media glasses and latex looking body suit.”
so i googled up “destro, gi joe” and get this site.
go to the bottom and see the subliminal message debate….
crazy huh–just like stairway to heaven or that ozzy song. how come no one does this shit anymore, is it because you can spin a CD backwards with your finger?

So. I listened to the message backwards. And that means I’m a real dweeb.
So now I know. And knowing is half the battle.
(If this comment appears twice, it’s ’cause MT spat back my first attempt.)

Wasn’t Baroness in love with Destro??? How could they possibly get it on with his metal head???
Rumor has it that Lady Jaye and Duke had something goin on as well, but I’m not the type to spread rumors.

i thought duke was bangin scarlett and flint was getting it on with lady J..(aka the pot head, ‘j’–get it?) maybe they were swappin?

Some people still do backwards stuff. The Stone Roses did it all the time. ‘Don’t Stop,’ ‘Full Fathom Five’: these are merely their other songs, ‘Waterfall’ and ‘Elephant Stone,’ completely in reverse.
I always thought that Destro was like the Mask of Vulcan, with a can over his head. Speaking would be easy, but what about breathing?
5 wawa // Jan 30, 2004 at 5:26 pm
I screwed that one up, Jefke. You are correct. That was the other way around. Duke with Scarlett and Lady Jaye with Flint.
Man, but you remember that tight little number that Lady Jaye had on her figure . ..um . . . nevermind

Boring posts. Never watched G.I Joe, no desire to now either. This just confirms for me that I did not miss anything.
7 Natty // Jan 31, 2004 at 12:39 pm
Forogt one thing- even the creators are calling you dweebs! But dweeb is an equally loser-esque word choice on their part, so they are lame, too.
8 B // Jan 31, 2004 at 7:06 pm
But ‘lame’ is such an amazing word choice. How original.
I am only posting this so Natty won’t have snuck in at the end and have the last word. Go Joe! Fighting Cobra and Destro! Uhh Huh!
9 wawa // Jan 31, 2004 at 7:34 pm
Brendan, I did not note your astute comment before about Destro’s questionable ability to breathe. Well done.
If Natty were a G.I. Joe Character, she would be Baronness: All the bitterness and hatred! (alas, please note that Baroness was hot! YOWZERS!)
10 Natty // Jan 31, 2004 at 8:47 pm
No, I think the child that Jefke and I have someday would be this Baroness character. She’d have to get the bitterness from Jefke (I’m not the bitter one- I’m the glass half full one and relatively worry-free). The hotness factor would, of course, come from me. Hahahaha!! Last word, last word, last word!

man, the level of conversation on this site—nothing but the best. TAG–YOU’RE it.
btw, i am posting right now from the downstairs toilet. i love cordless interweb access.
12 Natty // Feb 1, 2004 at 1:41 pm
Eeeeewww! I’m not gonna touch that laptop, but maybe that was all part of your plan.
13 B // Feb 1, 2004 at 3:49 pm
Olly olly oxen free!
14 wawa // Feb 2, 2004 at 1:01 am
Natty, I’m just saying with the bitterness and hatred comment that I made, that I don’t appreciate you knockin’ GI Joe. It’s like me ripping your wedding cake.
GI Joe is my wedding cake. I love it.
Just like I love Janet Jackson’s boob at Halftime of superbowls.
15 Natty // Feb 2, 2004 at 11:30 am
You’re a boob!
16 B // Feb 2, 2004 at 11:44 am
And so are you, Natty, if you think you’re going to have the last word.
17 Natty // Feb 2, 2004 at 12:23 pm
You’re a boob for wanting to have the last word so badly. Don’t you see that I do this on purpose. I really don’t care about the last word, but you do. It’s really not about the last word. It’s about the best one (not to say that my words are the best- far from it, don’t know whose are best, really).
18 Wawa // Feb 2, 2004 at 12:49 pm
Brendan’s was the best about the breathing and Destro’s metal mask. Well done!
19 Natty // Feb 2, 2004 at 2:15 pm
Uh oh, Wawa, it seems as though you’ve transfered your love for Cam to Brendan, not that Brendan is not fully deserving of love (we all love Brendan). But I was just emailing with Cam today and he will be heartbroken. Interesting, though, Wawa, you just shift love from one Canadian to another. I wonder what this means? And who will be next?
20 Wawa // Feb 2, 2004 at 3:32 pm
Hmmmmm . . . I don’t think there were any Canadian GI. Joes.
21 rcg // Feb 2, 2004 at 5:27 pm
We don’t need G.I. JOE. We have our own superhero group. They’re primarily peacekeepers, and if they use guns at all, you can be sure they’re registered.

I think Shipwreck may have been Canadian. I’d have to look that up.
Captain Canuck . . . dude, he looks like the leader of Alpha Flight from Marvel Comics fame.
CANADA’S GREATEST SUPERHEROES! (I know we’ve discussed before, but still)

“Also, some Canadian filecards were changed to make the characters more Canadian. For example, while the U.S. filecard for Grunt placed his birthplace as the state of Ohio, Grunt’s Canadian filecard placed him as being born in the province of Quebec.”
ah, so now it’s clear, quebe land is the ohio of canada–it’s all starting to make sense now….!!?!

Surprisingly, GI Joe never made a mountie action figure. It could have been like Due North, where the Mountie comes down to assist GI Joe in fighting the Canadian Cobra Faction.
