They remind me of these two somewhat bumbling but hilarious assassins that always went around together in this one James Bond movie.

I still think it's weeeird that Ted & Barry actually refer to themselves in the 3rd person. But I guess that's what overweight British cats that take part in Great Outdoor Fights do.

Man, this is going to be another long weekend waiting for the next episode in this magnificent saga.

And yeah, where's the shirts at? "FRIDAY: Great Outdoor Fight commemorative shirts debut!"? The hell?

I concur with the Kidd and Wint/Croup and Vandemar comparisons but make no mistake, these sorts of characters seem nice and polite and appear to be slightly akward and bumbling, but then they eat your liver. In this particular case they aren't quite refined enough to be that sort of assassin character though so I'm going to assume they were cats belonging to the two fat ladies who just went on riding motorcycles after the fatter one died and ended up in hard core bike gangs but never lost their polite urbane roots.

Why? Your mom not let you or something?

Nah, I just evolved musically and I find metal pretty boring, nowadays.  Any music where riffs constantly repeat, I'm thinking, man, just play something different already - it gets pretty boring.  I listen mostly to jazz and progressive rock.

I mean, it was a pretty diverse style of metal, Metallica/Iron Maiden/Iced Earth/In Flamesish, but every kind of metal is basically anger anger anger anger, that's all it says.  It really does not explore the breadth of musical emotion that I try to look for.

Plus, the direction heavy music has gone towards in the past 5 years has been down the shit tube.  Linkin Park made me almost embarrassed to like any rock music, at all, ever.  I dunno.  Now, I like to get high and play music that sounds like all kinds of things, not just ANGRY RIFF ANGRY RIFF CHECK OUT HOW ANGRY THIS SOUNDS.

Maybe we can pay nine dollars for the shirts and insist that we paid eighteen.

What's up with bands needing to have a screaming guy or moaning girl (Linkin Park, Evanescence) anyhow? I was starting to get uppity too and I'm, like, twice as old as half this board (but not nearly in Rheumatron territory yet)

You can play music that sounds like all kinds of things without getting high.
I think most people will agree that ANGRY RIFF ANGRY RIFF is way lame. It's fun to bob yer head to if you're pissed off, but - wait. WAIT. this is the ACHEWOOD thread. Right.

It kind of bugs me that one of the Brits got in by just having a cool blog. It sort of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?

With all of the maiming and such we've seen so far, i'm thinking that it's difficult to find 3000 willing partici****** on an annual basis.  They ain't gonna be too picky. 'You gotta cool blog, yeah you're in.'

Maybe they just hate his blog and that's why they let him in.

If writing a hilarious blog is enough to merit qualification for the GOF, then is Onstad eligible?  I mean, if the dude would deign to write himself into this arc, he is like ten times the size of the average competitor.  Might he even *gasp*  cut a fine challenge for Rodney L., based on mass alone? Such conjecture reminds me of the old hypothetical one-on-one football games between Ditka and God.
