The Tale of Icarus

March 26, 2010

Welcome, citizens of Athens (or wherever you may call home) to my humble abode, or in Greece we call it the domo. It’s a pretty comfortable place to be sure, lots of room to sit down and have a nice hot cup of coffee. Sit back and I will tell you the tale of that idiot son of mine, Icarus.

I built the first Labyrinth for that asshole King Minos on the island of Crete cause the King had a bit of trouble with the Minotaur, the dude that was half man and half bull cause the Minotaur was drunk and out of control, tearing around the island breaking things and just being a moron. The King and I tossed the old warhorse into the Labyrinth to calm down the area. I built the Labyrinth so well in fact that I could barely get out of the thing myself and damn that Minos, he locked me up in a tower on Crete so no one else could find out my secrets. I couldn’t get out of there by ship either cause Minos had guards all over the place and they were searching cargo holds in case they spotted me and he blocked off all the roads too. Bastard!

Anyways, I had to get the hell off Crete cause who wants to be prisoner on some shitty island anyways? You tell me! At least I had my kid Icarus to help me in my escape. I decided to make some wings out of wax and thread and knickknacks out of the garage. Here is what happened next.

Icarus wasn’t too bright and he was a brat too, never listening to his old man. His Mom was fed up with him and I ended up with full custody after his mom told him to take out the garbage and Icarus told her, “You cooked it, you take out the garbage!” That’s how he ended up sponging off of me.

I told that dope a long time ago to listen to his old man and NOT to get to close to the sun cause wax MELTS when it gets to close to the sun. What does he do? Figures out he’s gonna fly up to the sun cause he would get up there at night. STOOPID! Bang, next thing you know, all the wax melted and he did a crash dive into the sea. Damn kid.

Well, that’s the story of my kid Icarus, that’s the whole of it. Any more questions, talk to my wife. Oh, since you have been kind enough to listen to the story, I’ll let you see this video that my buddy Bruce Dickenson wrote about that kid of mine. Enjoy!

The mission of this blog is to mock Charles “Icarus” Johnson for his insane rantings and lies!

    This is where all LGF talk should go.

    Quite concur!

    Talking of birds and shit, can my kid brother post here without everyone yelling at him?

    He is currently looking for a job, I am sure someone out there has a job for him that can match his skills. There must be a burger that needs flipping or a toilet that needs cleaning.

    What we need here is a list of all the names by which Icarus is known at 2.0.
    That would make Icarus’ threat alarm system more useful.
    My own name for him is The Wally – or the Wally of Swat.

      Do you realize what the Icarus’ threat alarm system is?

      It is not some sophisticated high tech system that he leads everyone to believe. It is infact my kid brother and all the other pathetic suckups ofer there hitting the ‘report” button thingy for posts at LGF or emailing him about other thngs they find elsewhere on the net.

      Icarus, Chuckles, Chuckles the Dancing Clown™, The Jazz Guitarist™, husky blogger (that one always makes me imagine a sled dog with his paws on a keyboard), pasty faced ponytailed blogger, the bicyclist, Snowball (Napoleon would be more appropriate…he was the Stalin analogue in Animal Farm, Snowball was Trotsky), fat hippie, Big Lizard…have I missed any?

    I am not so sure that it is a good plan to try to force the LGF stuff off of the Blogmocracy blog; LGF is part of our heritage. Those who complain about the LGF bashing need to man up and deal with it, there will always be topics which are not of interest everyone.

      We are not doing away with chucky talk. We are just doing the dedicated posts to him and the LGF crew here.

        I don’t mind either way. But much as I hate to admit it, salamander bashing is addictive fun and a fair chunk of your blog traffic. The down side is the lookyloo traffic sent to them. Both of which I’m sure you are aware.

    I am in agreement with Tunnelrat, but I think having a blog to devote to the follies of Icarus is useful as well.

    I like the Chairman Mao influenced graphic with Chucky as a clapping Mao but the banner needs to be fixed, it says “LFG” not “LGF”.

      The Osprey- that’s an inside joke. You don’t remember the Cox & Forkum LFG cartoon?

    I bet a bunch of people have forgotten that. As a matter of fact, I’m sure NONE of the current crop has even heard of Cox & Forkum, lol.

      “He who fights with girls” is the Lakota Sioux name that R.S. McCain gave him.

    I am so glad this site has been set up. I do not know what was the matter with Song_And_Dance_Man – he seems like he was looking to be a contrarian. Our threads at blogmocracy (90%) of them are about national, international) news. Btw posters come and go. Oftentimes I think a person has left since I have not seen them in months and all of a sudden they pop up.
