In today’s New Meme You Should Know we’re bringing you a new take on one of our oldest favorite characters in television, Homer Simpson. Homer is without a doubt the quintessential lazy father, worker, and role model who is most deserving of a meme but up to this point has not had one. Thankfully, the Internet has caught up to television and we now have Homer both online and off to give us much needed advice on how to skirt all responsibilities and aspirations.

It was one man’s mission to illustrate an image, one a day, based on every NES game ever made. Unfortunately, he fell a bit short, but the results are impressive nonetheless.

That man is Aussie artist Campbell Whyte, whose original plan was to create 789 illustrations, again one a day, each about every single Nintendo Entertainment System game released in Australia (by the way, in the US, we got 785, in case you were wondering).

But after about a year, Whyte got a book deal, so he had to scrap his project. The above represents everything he was able to crank out, which is 375. Oh, and if you want to purchase one of the drawings, it might be available via his Etsy shop.

One is simply good editing skills at work. The other is somewhat of a cry for help.

One is simply good editing skills at work. The other is somewhat of a cry for help.

First we have the old Zelda cartoon from the late 80s in which words are bleeped out to give the impression that everyone’s cursing. Thankfully, the show was all about Link trying to bang the princess, and Link’s fairy companion trying to screw her master, so the joke actually works in this instance…

Next is something completely different; some dude singing a heartfelt song that’s not directed toward’s the Zelda games per say, but the man who made them. AKA Shigeru Miyamoto, who is affectionally referred to as “the father of my childhood”…

Okay, let’s get the obvious out of the way: this guy must have had one colossally sh*tty childhood if the only things that gave him any joy were video games. Christ, talk about depressing. And calling the guy who also made Super Mario your dad? I think therapy, not YouTube, is where you should be telling your story, pal.

You know, it is true that Miyamoto has had a profound impact on many of us as kids, and I have plenty of happy memories related to video games, HIS video games. But despite being a sentimentalist myself to an embarrassing degree, I am unable to join those who believe the tribute above is anything wondering. Cuz it’s not.

Sorry, but the line “My parent clothed and cared for me, but you taught me everything” sends douchechills down my spin like nothing else. Like, seriously? What an a**hole. Like raising a child is no big deal, and all the hard work plus sacrifice that any parent put forth while doing so… and I have to guess his folks were no different than any other… didn’t instill in him any knowledge or moral fibers.

Unless there’s a part of the story that we’re not getting, like his parents brutally absurd the guy, he’s just a grade A dick in my mind. And for the record, I don’t have kids, nor do I want any, since I know how hard it is to be one! Also, I don’t even get along all that well with my parents! But I respect them enough to know that they busted their ass to make sure I didn’t turn out a complete idiot and the like.

And people why Nintendo fans are so deluded?

Eternia, like Earth is full of interesting characters. You’ve got the villainous, sinister and giggly Skeletor. The bewildering unknown sexuality of He-Man.

Psychologists say that children can be deeply affected by some of the media they take in growing up. So these staples of cartoons that we all watched probably weren’t the best things for us to learn.

11 Swimming in a pool of gold coins

You know what’d happen if you dove headfirst into a pile of gold coins? It wouldn’t be a dip in glorious excess, no sir. You’d probably be paralyzed at best. Or dead at worst. No wonder the AIG braintrust ran the company so poorly… that’s probably what the executives did on all of their corporate retreats, leaving bits of brain matter leaking from their heads like a half-finished bowl of Jell-o.

10 Abandoning your children

As much as I’d like to believe that I could just leave my kids behind and let them figure life out on their own, they’d probably end up in much more of a Lord of the Flies situation than they would a Dora the Explorer or Rugrats one. In no situation is it okay for anyone to go, “Welp my little ethnic child, here’s a singing map and a bag full of crap… go explore!” How the f do they even know that she’ll eat? All I’m saying is that, if I had any say, I’d probably be feasting on some monkey brains within 10 minutes of being in the jungle.

9 Eating pizza with random crap on it would be delicious

The borderline junkie mentality to pizza wasn’t the best thing either. Even in the cartoon that bit them in the ass, like when Shredder made a pizza place to capture them. Is it any wonder 90% of Ninja Turtles fans grew up to be heroin addicts according to a study I just fabricated four minutes ago?

8 Sleeping in a haunted house with a talking dog

7 Cross-dressing to seduce your enemies

I hate to break it to Bugs, but he’s also not that hot of a chick. And he’s a different species than most of the people he tried to seduce. I admire his courage but the execution leaves something to be desired.

6 Picking an appropriate partner

Now Popeye’s no looker, so it’s not a huge deal that Olive Oyl is completely anorexic and kind of ugly, in fact. But the real problem is that she’s always flirting with Bluto, pretending like he’s so big and bad, but then being nice to him. No wonder Bluto drags her around like a caveman, she’s just so caught up in playing a victim and getting attention. Meanwhile Popeye has to bust his ass and load up fully on performance enhancing drugs just to protect her from herself. He’d have been better off trying to date Wimpy. At least there’d be hamburgers involved.

5 Painting a hole in a wall and running through

It’s sort of like the movie Weird Science. Yeah, it was great and all when she first came to life, but then you have to listen to her nagging you about taking out the trash or starting a 529 plan for when you have kids and it’s just like, “Dammit, I’m too talented for my own good.”

4 Putting together a band with an animal and traveling the globe

On the plus side, after hearing Jabberjaw prattle on about completely idiotic things, you’ll prefer the relatively quiet hum of a shark eating your innards to watching 10 minutes of that show.

3 Letting a cat babysit your kids

Also, has the mother in the house ever heard of an exterminator? Jerry is freaking running the place, eating cheese all the time. He’s probably crapping all over the place too. All I’m saying is that the mother in this place might not be the best example of how to raise a family.

2 Running off of a cliff

And then he gets to dust himself off and get back in the game. Only to lose again. And again. And again. In fact, I bet that time floating in midair hanging off the cliff is one of the few peaceful moments in his life. Like standing in the eye of the hurricane. Or realizing that you forgot a condom when sleeping with that stripper.

1 Approaching and understanding shotguns

Also, changing a sign to say that it is not Rabbit Season when, in fact, it is will not change the laws and guidelines defined by local and federal governments. You Commie, you.

Is this too esoteric of a clip to post? Possibly. But when you mix classic Nickelodeon cartoon “Doug” with Cali Swag District’s “Teach Me How to Dougie,” this is something that the world needs to be made aware of.

Of course Skeeter’s verse and flow would be the best. ]]>

Of course Skeeter’s verse and flow would be the best. He’s just so naturally rhythmic. Probably good at basketball and blue-on-blonde porn too. I’m just guessing.

On Tuesday May 4th, Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment will release IRON MAN: THE COMPLETE 1994 ANIMATED TELEVISION SERIES and X-MEN: Vol. 5 on DVD! And we have three sets of each to give away to you, our loyal reader!

Nick Fury, War Machine, Scarlet Witch, Spider Woman, Hawkeye, Whiplash, and of course, Iron Man, are all here in this 3-disc collector’s edition. While the X-Men 2-disc-set contains the final episode, Graduation Day, with 14 episodes in all. Complete your X-men collection with this must-own final installment of this great animated series.

I know that these DVD’s are going to be greatly enjoyed by our winners because when I showed them to my four year-old son, his reaction was, “This is awesome!” You can’t get a better review than that, folks. I also happened to “review” them (strictly for educational purposes, of course) and I must concur. These videos are really, really good.

All you have to do to enter is tell us who your all-time favorite superhero is and why (yes, it’s a two-part response – you can do it) in the comments below. On Wednesday, May 5, we’ll select six winners at random to receive these fun and valuable collector’s items. It’s that simple!

To help get you in the mood, here’s a couple of clips from the DVDs…

Last night, South Park’s season premiere hilariously tackled sex addiction. But that doesn’t mean that they should get to be the only animated voice talking about adultery. Meet the 1980s cartoon “Kingdom Chums” and a little song about being loyal to your husband or wife. Set your mind to “blown.”

No offense to the new rabbit bride, but I’m a human and I’d definitely give it to that saucy little homewrecker rabbit in the pink dress, pictured above. You just can’t deny our chemistry. She knows how to work her tail.

Anyway, I’m not taking my dating advice from a white skunk or whatever that lead singing animal chick is. The only woodland creature active on the dating scene that I know is Pepe Le Pew. And the last time someone took his romantic advice, Mike Tyson ended up in jail for years after his “situation” with Desiree Washington.

As seen in that infamous rumor that the animators of Who Framed Roger Rabbit? inserted a shot of Jessica Rabbit’s cooch in an upskirt moment in the film, animators are known to dabble in perversion. For further proof, you can take a look at Bugs Bunny’s big flopping rabbit penis. ]]>

I don’t know what’s better about this clip…how well-endowed and proud of his huge bunny johnson that Bugs is or how surprised/impressed/aroused Elmer Fudd is when seeing it. This is truly a benchmark moment in furry animated porn.

They should have used Bugs Bunny’s big wang as a plot device in more cartoons though. It’d be pretty funny if, when Bugs was dressed as a female bunny to seduce various people, the reason they figured out that it wasn’t Bugs was just because of the throbbing fuzzy penis they accidentally saw when tranny Bugs bent over. I think kids would really relate, especially if they ever wondered what happened when Daddy went to the bathhouses.

I came across this today and found it to be pretty awesome. Adult Swim is casting real life versions of Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force for some reason (probably to get innocent gentlemen like me to post it), but they’ve made some interesting finds. Take a look at a couple of the better ones:

I’d say the last one is my fave. The impression isn’t so strong, but he’s really living the Carl lifestyle. And the gag about the box and his mouth is just hilarious. Well played, you viral marketing geniuses. See, you don’t have to make the idiots in Boston think they’re getting blown up to have an effective marketing tool!

It’s that time of the year where everyone casts a vote for a candidate but, more importantly, casts their support for democracy. But if all the celebrity endorsements and media blitz weren’t enough to make you run out and place a vote for either of the two Presidential candidates, maybe these cartoons might make you see the importance of getting out and voting.

South Park
Episode: Douche or Turd
Lesson: Turd sandwiches make viable political candidates; Your vote doesn’t matter

In this pre-2004 Presidential Election episode, South Park Elementary’s mascot, the Cow, has been deemed inappropriate by PETA. So the school decides to elect a new mascot with candidates created by the students. This leads to a campaign being run by a Turd Sandwich and a Giant Douche.

And it featured a call to action from Diddy to Stan to get out and vote.

At the end of the episode, Stan decides to vote for Turd Sandwich. But then, the school opts to just use the Cow mascot again instead of the Giant Douche or Turd Sandwich, meaning Stan’s vote was completely meaningless. Kind of like being someone trying to vote for Al Gore in Florida in 2000.

While I would hate to dispute the credentials of Turd Sandwich, I’d have to question his existence in the first place. A Giant Douche has its uses…after all, women in the WNBA have to be cleaned somehow. But a Turd Sandwich? Why that doesn’t sound delicious at all, sir.

The Simpsons
Episode: Treehouse of Horror VII’s “Citizen Kang”
Lesson: Democracy just doesn’t work, particularly when aliens are involved

Loveable aliens (well, as loveable as someone trying to destroy our planet can be) Kang and Kodos decide that the best way to enslave all Earthlings is by taking over for Presidential candidates Bob Dole and Bill Clinton. Here’s how Kang, in the form of Bob Dole, won votes at a pre-election stump speech.

Unfortunately Kang’s promises of miniature flags never came to fruition as, instead, upon winning the election (yes, Bob Dole won the election…I know, that’s a bit far-fetched even for a cartoon), he opted to enslave all of the Earthlings to build a laser to attack another planet. Which sounds illogical until you realize that it undoubtedly saved us an attack from Neptunian terrorists and their weapons of mass destruction.

Capitol Critters
Episode: “Of Thee I Sting”
Lesson: Even rats find politicians dirty

You may or may not remember Capitol Critters, a cartoon which had a one season run on ABC. The premise was pretty simple: Rats live beneath the White House, hijinx ensue. In this episode, main character Max (an idealistic rat who just moved to Washington) finds himself in a senator’s suitcase. The senator, fresh off of a stirring speech that showed him as a hero to millions, meets with a couple lobbyists. Skip to 3:30 in on this clip to save yourself minutes of cartoon rats being completely f’ing retarded.

My favorite part of the clip? How they’re just emptying stacks of money into a bag casually like that was a totally cool thing to do and the senator is just like, “Sure, pile your UNMARKED money into my bag! No problem!” If you’re going to be a corrupt politician, at least watch a movie or two so you have a vague understanding of how to exchange illicit funds.

Looks like Max just learned an important lesson about how Washington really works. But he didn’t learn a lesson about where to get awesome rat-sized hats and print buttondowns. That lesson he learned a long time ago.

Tiny Toons
Episode: Citizen Max
Lesson: Never cross Buster Bunny

This one was a spoof of Citizen Kane (a never-before-done concept, I’m sure). In a flashback, Montana Max decides to run for student council President as part of his rise to power. But the basic foundation of his campaign was to rid the school of Buster Bunny. Skip to 6:45 in this clip…

It really makes you wish that John McCain and Barack Obama had their debates in a cartoon (I presume through some sort of chicanery like in that movie Stay Tuned…all we’d need is a remote control and a bit of whimsy). There weren’t nearly enough anvils being dropped on someone’s head during their encounters.

Anyway Max rigs the election against Buster Bunny (people didn’t quite gravitate to Max’s Bunny Genocide platform like he’d have hoped) and ends up alone and sad and totally gay for his old bike. Just like William Taft.

Futurama
Episode: A Head in the Polls
Lesson: Our first robot President will win by one vote; The United States is part of the world

For the people living in Futurama, the elections of the year 3000 were (will be?) pretty dull, being contested by two clones named John Jackson and Jack Johnson who offered no real differences in their platforms. However, Fry learns that voting in the future actually can make a difference. Note: Fry’s method of protesting the voting process in the clip below is highly recommended.

Unfortunately neither John Jackson’s policies on taxation were strong enough, leaving Richard Nixon’s head as a runaway winner thanks, primarily, to his appeal to robot voters.

See what happens if you don’t vote? Not only do you end up with Richard Nixon as President, you end up with Richard Nixon as President in an evil robot body. Which I guess is slightly cooler. Especially if you collect Presidential action figures.

Family Guy
Episode: It Takes a Village Idiot, and I Married One
Lesson: Voters are mostly idiots

Lois ends up running for mayor because of an oil refinery polluting Quahog. But her beliefs quickly become compromised, as illustrated through this Rudy Giuliani-esque performance during a debate against incumbent Mayor Adam West.

Lois ends up winning the mayoral election but finds herself corrupted by the position, misappropriating taxpayer money and accepting bribes. After accepting an expensive fur coat from the oil company she initially took the job to stop, Lois realizes the error of her ways and resigns. Leave it to Family Guy to show the biggest lesson of all when you go to the polls tomorrow: Never trust a woman running for office who’s been given fancy clothes.
