Screenshot from the Nintendo 64 game The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.  In a dark yet starry chamber, a female fairy is lying in midair, her arms crossed in front of her.  She has golden hair, leafy clothes, and make up that almost reads as drag.  Her dialogue box says "Thank you for returning my broken and shattered body to normal."

People ask me how I formulate my jokes (I assume out of jealousy) and then truth is I'm stupid in the head. "Oh what are you smoking" buddy I'm just like this. How does it feel to be less creative than someone stupid in the head. Sucks to be you

Sad to see that they didn't invite Adam Baldwin back for more Firefly but I see how they couldn't write around his character's ending (having sex with a gun and blowing up his entire dick and penis then soiling himself)

Vintage Transformers comic panel.  Soundwave points towards a mechanical archway under which Bumblebee is strung up by tentacles.  Starscream is stood slightly in front, saying "You really think he will come by himself?"

Beast Wars Again Airazor, a Transformers brand toy of a humanoid robot that turns into a peregrine falcon.  The falcon parts are a darker shade of brown, and other parts feature a more extensive paintjob.

If you were unhappy with Kingdom Airazor, you could always buy Gay Japanese Airazor

Had a dream I was going to a fancy dress party as a forgotten Sonic the Comic character named Max Danger who, despite the name, was a) Sonic's biggest, most embarrassing fanboy and b) basically just Urkel???

Machine Man and mainstream Marvel - The Transformers UK Appendix We've explained before about how all futures depicted in Marvel comics are generally categorised as potential futures. This is, at least partially, to allow writers...

Comic panel: MAUREEN AND JOHNNY GET ON DOWN...  In the foreground, a blonde woman in a red dress and high heels dances with a brown haired man in a blue 80s suit.  Being them are bright disco dancefloor lights and a crowd of indistinct, block-orange silhouettes... and the distinctive likeness of Death's Head, a demonic mechanoid.

In "Simply Having a Wonderful Christmastime", the children have practised (all year long) the lyrics "ding dong ding dong ding dong ding". This implies that the song they have practised (all year long) is Bananaphone
