Happy Birthday, Honey!

I think I may have my hands full as a father in the very near future.

I think I may have my hands full as a father in the very near future.

Again, this is ManWithPez, and I am your host, and I can wish Happy Birthday to whoever I want, and that who today is my daughter, Madelyn.   Above is one of my favorite pictures of her ever, but it’s also several years old.  Again, my website.  Happy Birthday, honey!  May the best of your past be the worst of your future.

When You Know You Shouldn’t Laugh…But…

Hey...he's just sayin' what we were all thinking.

Hey...he's just sayin' what we were all thinking.

I have left town this week, and so, you might find this post a little lacking.  Meh, I’ll live.  Also, I know it’s old as hell, but I still can’t help but laugh at this guy’s gall.   I’m not even certain it’s a real, untampered with picture, but I still think it’s funny.  I know I shouldn’t, but, what are you going to do?  Oh, wait…I know!  Iron my shirt, bitch!

The Fights I Like To Avoid

Yo dawg!  I head you like bitin' other dawgs.  Here ya go!

Yo dawg! I head you like bitin' other dawgs. Here ya go!

Being a surly, slightly overweight nerd, I’m certain you’re thinking that I’m about to say “physical confrontation” and the fights I like to avoid.  You’d be wrong this time, however.  Certain groups of people tear into each other verbally or in whatever way, and I just get embarassed or bothered to the point that I can’t BE bothered.   Everyone knows everyone has an opinion or two of their own.  There’s just no need to force it out of most people.  The Fights I Like To Avoid…and why, after the jump.

Heh.  Yeah, I suppose that’s right.  At any rate, here’s my picture for my 4,000th Tweet.  And, while it’s good, it’s not half as good as the iteration that ThatCostumeGirl came up with…seen below and after the jump. (more…)

Happy Birthday, Son!

Fri ,26/02/2010
Mmmmmm...haaaaand.  Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting my zombie son!

Mmmmmm...haaaaand. Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting my zombie son!

Since this is my site, I think I’ll say Happy Birthday to whoever I want!  And that who today is my little redhaired son, Alexander.  It’s not everyday that your young man turns seven!  Seen pictured above from some years past, and apparently when he was quite hungry.   Here’s hoping you get some cake instead of that hand, boy!  I love you, son.

Nontraditional Fathers and Sons

Fri ,26/02/2010
Talk back to me again, and you'll be riding high tide, you got that?

Talk back to me again, and you'll be riding high tide, you got that?

Today is my son’s birthday.  In honor of this, I’m going to write a little piece about some of my favorite father/son relationships.  However, as is my wont here at ManWithPez, none of these are what you’d consider traditional father/son relationships, ohhhhh no.  In fact,  only one pair is actually blood related.  Having said that, I think we’ll do without the typical rank structure I usually employ with these types of lists, and just jump in.  Who’s ready?  I know I am, and before I go on…Happy 7th, Alexander.  Daddy is very proud of you.  Fathers and sons after the jump.

Streaming Theater: Repetition Is The Key!

Thu ,25/02/2010
Yeah, I said his teeth are as yellow as his eyes!  Scary, I know!

Yeah, I said his teeth are as yellow as his eyes! Scary, I know!

I don’t know why, but I find the following cartoon clips funny.  They’re really just repeated sayings from certain shows edited down to just those key things I find funny.  Find out why I think is so damn funny after the jump, but I warn you…there’s one clip in here that started me off laughing for a good ten minutes, and I STILL can’t explain why!  Videos for you after the jump!

Streaming Theater: Why Wakko Warner?

Thu ,18/02/2010
The best library companions ever!  Or, the worst, depending on how you look at it.

The best library companions ever! Or, the worst, depending on how you look at it.

I’ve made no secret that I’m a huge fan of Animaniacs.  In fact, in my office here at the ManWithPez Central, the siblings sit next to some of my leatherbound books.  I love my leathers, and I keep Wakko, Yakko, and Dot on the same level.  I honestly believe that it was one of the funniest cartoons ever made.  Actually, I still believe that.  Wakko was always my favorite, mostly because he’s completely different from his brother and sister, and not just because he has a completely different accent from them.  He thinks, acts, and genuinely is apart from them in every way.  In a very good, very funny way.  Watch some Wakko with me after the jump, won’t you?

Two Time Sexiest Man Alive George Clooney

From George's yearbook:  "Be good this summer!  Don't rob any casinos!"

From George's yearbook: "Be good this summer! Don't rob any casinos!"

 It doesn’t do to forget where one comes from, and as you can clearly see from this photo I found over at FILM.com, George Clooney still remembers from whence he came.  I would still bet, however, that he was pulling tail with this look back in the day.  Meanwhile, I couldn’t get kissed in high school, let alone…uh…anything else, and I know I looked better than this.   I mean, come on…he looks like the nerd the other nerds used to beat up!  Whatever.  He managed to pull his shit together and make a global community of woman fawn over him.  Perhaps, one day, I can do the same!  Let’s see what I can do!

Phrases/Words That Incur My Wrath Take 2

Tue ,16/02/2010
Please...just say one of these phrases around me, and this is the scene that plays in my head.

Please...just say one of these phrases around me, and this is the scene that plays in my head.

ThatCostumeGirl read my last list of abusings of the English language and reminded me that I forgot a couple.   Turns out that I’m just a hate filled machine that basically dislikes everyone’s words that aren’t mine.  And, I stand by that.  Like I’ve said before, if you use any of these, I don’t mean to anger you, and I wouldn’t say anything to you, but inside, I’d be as clenched as a hermorrhoidic cocaine user who just sat on a hedgehog.  Angering words and phrases after the jump!
