Hello, faithful readers. Here’s a little wakey-wakey song for all two of you out there.
TNMT + Throwdown = yoga-like serenity.
Recognize this guy?
That’s right. That’s ATHF co-creator Dave Willis. The voice of Carl and Meatwad. You probably could tell that, though. His forearm hair has that distinctive quality that just pops on camera. It just fucking pops. Compare it to the inferior forearm in the background. Notice how that one almost fogs up the entire image. It’s vulgar even.
Now, if you haven’t seen Dave’s new short Cat’s In Pajamas yet, watch it. And when you’re done and you want to jam out on your fart-riddled futon, unplugged Telecaster in hand, here are the lyrics and chords to the Cat’s In Pajamas song (fuck you, Harry Chapin).
Also, sorry about the chord spacing. For some reason, WordPress likes to jam letters together despite all of our hard space bar work. But you get the basic idea.
A C
A child showed up just the other day
D A
I don’t know how but it was pretty cool
A C
And there was some important stuff that I had to do
D A
And then he did something and then someone took pictures
G G/F# Em7 Em/D
And when I spoke to him, I said to he
C EmB A C Em/B A
“I want you to be like me, son. Wear the Iron Cross for Bravery, son”
If you play as a Nazi and …
A
…The cats in pajamas
G
99 luft balloons
C
And the dish ran away
D
With the Spiceworms from Dune
A G
Will you take the trash out? I don’t know when.
C Em/B A
I’ve been called on another mission. I won’t rest until Mars is enslaved….
A C
My son turned twelve just the other day
D A
He said that he wants to dominate my Planet of Flames
A C
I said “you’re not old enough to rule the “Planet of Flames”
D A
He said “Yes I am” and I said “No sir you’re not”
A C
So then he said something like Planet of Flames is lame
D A
Thinking maybe that I’ll stop playing Planet of Flames
A C
And then he called the government and told someone I raped him
D A
And someone came by and I had to answer questions
G G/F# Em7 Em/D
Like “Is this your residence?” and “Where do you work?”
C EmB A C EmB A
I was sent by Emporer Laaarnoo to put down the lizard rebellion on Klornax-5
And they took my kid away…..
A
Well the cats in pajamas
G
And a pitcher of cream
C
Danced a jig with an egg
D
In the washing machine
A G
Thanks for coming home son I don’t know when
C EmB A
Your mom started lying down like that
C EmB A
I thought she was just doing some push-ups
A C
I’m older now, I’m getting up in age
D A
My son got the day off for MLK
A C
He wants me to hang out for the holiday
D A
So he’s supposed to pick me up by the visitor’s gate
G G/F# Em7 Em/D
He said “I never said that, you’re putting words in my mouth
C EmB A
I’m on the roof cleaning out my crawlspace
C Em/B A
But he was on-line when he said that.
Then I walked right into traffic….
A
And the cats in a hoagie
G
With a side of fries
C
Four and twenty blackbirds
D
Chicken pot pie
A G
Why am I so hungry man, I don’t know why
C EmB A
Shouldn’t maybe done that last bong hit
C EmB A
That was a poor decision
G G/F# Em7 Em/D
And as my son took my health, it occurred to me
C EmB A
He must have bought Xbox 360
C Em/B A
I mean, how else would he have done that?
Guess what? This site just got a whole lot shittier. How? We’ve decided instead of showing videos by Jonah Ray, we’re only going to show footage of old people eating at Picadilly or something. To be honest, we don’t know yet. We’re in a goddamn emotional tailspin.
Sigh.
Today’s big premiere is Jonah’s very last Freeloader’s Guide To Easy Living. It’s the “Final Exam,” if you will. Actually, that’s the name of the episode. Steve Agee is in it. And so is a lot of freebasing, which sounds dangerous, but as you can tell from these two screen shots, it’s made Mr. Ray a whole lot sexier over the course of the Guide.
BEFORE 
AFTER 
(Notice how the AFTER picture is actually smaller than the BEFORE shot. See what had happened was, the newer, slimmer Jonah actually causes j-peg’s to shrink now. It’s weird.)
Oh, by the way, Jonah also just uploaded a new music video he did about zombies and Home Depot. Iz funny, oui?
Here’s where Super Deluxe’s descent into the sci fi/fantasy vortex gets weird. Guest appearances include Michael Winslow, the black guy from the Police Academy movies who makes all those wacky noises with his mouth.
Bragging about smoking crack is tricky. If you’re just joking around, why not boast about smoking PCP, ayahuasca or dried placentas too? If you’re serious, obviously you’ve got bigger fish to fry than having Cisco Adler produce your Beverly Hills-based hip-hop career.
With that said, our man Nick Goossen (who did Smoking Weed for us) just directed this music video for substance abuser/rapper Andre Legacy. It’s called “Bender.”
Since we’re actively contributing to the well-being of his film career (seen any Good Luck Chuck ads lately?), we feel entitled to raise questions about his mystifying foray into music.
We’ll let you be the judge.
Good morning, Sunshine. Feeling a little blobbish today? How about a few more questions?
Did you leave the house last night? If so, did you go see Bob Odenkirk’s new movie, The Brothers Solomon? If not, are you ready to watch Bob Odenkirk pitch a movie to a greased-up, fake-tanned, short-attention-spanned version of himself? One that looks like this…
Good. Because Mr. Odenkirk is taking a break from Comedy By The Numbers duties on Wednesday and premiering Bob Pitches A Movie on ye olde homepage.
Do you have basic cable? If so, did you watch the premiere of Adult Swim’s Lucy, Daughter Of The Devil last night? If not, you can watch it here. The reason we’re asking is because it’s funny. And it was created by the co-creator of Home Movies. And it stars Jon Benjamin (whose Super Deluxe premiere is imminent), Toddy Barry (ditto) and Eugene Mirman (who already works with us; duh).
Finally, do you have HBO? If so, did you watch the Curb Your Enthusiasm season premiere? Just checking. Don’t really have anything additional to say about it, except it’s called “Meet The Blacks.”
One of the nice things about working in close proximity to the Adult Swim people is bumping into guys like Dana Snyder in the hallways, and asking him how Master Shake is doing. When he tells us, “How should I know? I’m not his fucking mother,” we reply, “That’s true.” And we go round and round like that for a while, and just laugh and laugh.
Another neat thing is Dana Snyder is the star of Cat’s In Pajamas, the new short by Aqua Teen Hunger Force co-creator, Dave Willis, that’s debuting here next Friday. It’s a live-action piece about video game neglect set to a very familiar tune. Oh, and Willis’ kids also star in it.
But maybe that’s misleading. Master Shake seems to have a different take on things:
What can we say? We’ve always been into space crap, 20-sided dice and software developers who come to Atlanta once a year in tights and make-up and openly revel in their adolescent man-crushes on comic book characters.
Oh, and Darth Vader bikini models. They’re nice, too.
This year’s Dragon*Con was everything we thought it would be. Highlights included:
1. The opening parade (there’s nothing quite like seeing an army of Stormtroopers stopping traffic in downtown Atlanta preceded by Erik Estrada on a motorcycle).
2. Hanging out with the Fark TV guys and Lance Myers.
3. Meeting Michael Winslow, the “Man of 10,000 Sound Effects” from the Police Academy movies.
4. Sneaking into a Dragon*Con afterparty and realizing there is such a thing as the “beautiful people” of the fantasy/sci-fi convention circuit.
5. Asking a Chewbacca French maid if she had a special message for everybody and her replying, “It’s hot in here.”
Indeed. Here’s the first chunk of our Dragon*Con adventure from our podcast. There’s plenty more to come.
Producing one of our favorite series, Robots vs. Dragons, is not enough for Quack! Media®. Nor are they content to just being some disarmingly good-looking people.
They also now have Robots vs. Dragons apparel for sale (as seen on said good-looking people).
