Ominous Questions for BOOM SHAKALAKA!
July 25th, 2008We’re back after a forced hiatus to bring you more information you probably shouldn’t know! Today we have a letter from Kick Ass Ronto, which is less of a name and more of a title. Like, “Hey, do you know Steve? That guy’s one Kick Ass Ronto!” Anyways:
Dear Ominous Knife staff or characters,
Do you guys have any more… You know… Masculine friends? No offence
but you guys are all a little soft.
Calvin: Hey, it’s our first letter from Great Britain!
Mick: It’s good to know that our friends on the other side of the pond are reading and criticizing our lifestyles.
Walt: I think the correct spelling is “criticising”.
Calvin: Okay, two things. No, it’s not, and…well, it was really just that one thing I guess.
Victor: KAR, there are a few manly men waiting to make their debut soon. Until then, how about you enjoy the stylings of Strong Everydude.
Strong: Don’t you hate it when you’re killing a boar with your bare hands and get blood all over your shirtless, well-oiled chest?
Victor: Now there’s a character we can all connect with!
Good stuff! Well, that’s it for today. There would be more but the fellows are off to see The Dark Knight. But not the Dark Knight you’re thinking of!

What did that last bit mean? When you say that, people might think that you’re going to go watch people play that new Sonic Wii game.

Well in response to your question Mr. Strong Everydude, I would say that my only hatred of such a thing would be if my chest were not well oiled. As we manly men know, it is nearly impossible to remove boar’s blood from one’s chest if it is not well oiled; save a shower. Yet again, as I am sure you know Mr. Strong Everydude, that a boar can smell Irish Spring from 100 meters away so a shower is out of the question; that is if you are going to get your daily legal limit on boar which is of course how many of them that are still in existance after a 24 hour period.

Slightly less manly is killing a deer with your bare hands… http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9896288/

I’ve only ever met one Kick Ass Ronto, and even he slipped once….something about a little girl….

Just visiting the site per a friend’s recommendations.
Congrats on your first UK letter (actually a set of words). The Internet is encouraging of lot of back & forth cross the Atlantic. Recently, I caught two examples of US mainstream TV programmes using the word “kerfuffle” and they were NOT uttered on PBS!
Now, as for the writer’s complaint about the lack of butch characters, perhaps you can introduce a lumberjack… yes, the one who’s a lumbjerjack and he’s OK….
Or maybe send a character off to Brecon Beacons in Wales for the SAS Survival Training course. . If airfare is too pricey, there are US equivalents.
Cheers.

PS. There is a US equivalent……… its called pre-school.

“Cowboy Up”? A Borkeback Mountain reference, eh.
