"But Dylan, I have no clue what you're talking about. It's like you're just typing letters and making no sense here. What is your deal?" Easy there, my young pupil. All will be explained. Maybe.
See, in my book arts class today, I made a M.O.D.O.K. reference and nobody got it. I mean, what the heck are they teaching kids in school these days? This, my friends, is what is wrong with America. Freaking Liberal media and treehuggers and whatnot.
See, M.O.D.O.K. is one of the best comic creations like, ever. First off, he looks like this:
From an aesthetic point of view, M.O.D.O.K. is a gigantic pruny baby head with super Kirbytech that helps him fly and shoot lasers and whatnot.
Yeah, pretty amazing.
But wait... it gets amazinger. "What," you may ask, "does M.O.D.O.K. stand for?" Well, I'm glad you asked becaus ethat is the kicker. M.O.D.O.K. stands for Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing, which would look great on a business card. Or a personalized license plate. Or a t-shirt. Or on the front of an apron... beats the heck out of "Kiss the Cook."
Acronym names rule. In fact, they rule so much I shall give myself one. M.O.D.O.K., you have inspired me. From here on out, I shal be known as H.O.T.B.O.D.(&.E.T.C.): Human Organism Totally Built to Only Design (& Eating The Cookies).
That's catchy.
Oh, and there's some origin for him that is crazy, like the terrorist organizatiuon A.I.M. (Advanced Idea Mechanics, I believe, the Marvel U is thick with acronyms) they wanted to give him a bigger brain but he revolted and ended up taking over AIM. Or something. Whatever.
All you really need to know is the following:
Big baby head.
Crazy Kirbytech.
Designed Only For Killing.
That should dazzle anyone at an upcoming holiday party. In fact, you should tell your boss all about M.O.D.O.K. He (or she) will be so impressed that I personally guarantee* you will get a raise, a personal secretary and an office the size of Delaware. So says H.O.T.B.O.D.(&.E.T.C.)!
So, there's M.O.D.O.K. in a nutshell. Sure there's much much more to be discussed about him and his awesomeness, but that's why they invented Wikipedia and I am too lazy to cut & paste it here because I want to go eat cookies. I will, however, leave you with a cute little mini-M.O.D.O.K. Don't let his size fool you! He is Designed Only for Killing!
*This guarantee is totally fake and I am such a dirty liar. That's what you get for trusting people with acronym names.

You are probably one of the biggest geeks in the animal kingdom. I sure hope I draw your name for Christmas because from the looks of it, it doesn't take much to get you excited. (I still think he is a Krang rip off). So if you want to borrow the entire third season of the Ninja Turtles (1987 animated series) on DVD. Let me know . . .
If loving M.O.D.O.K. makes me a geek, then I wear that apellation with pride. And a smidgen of embarassment.
But mostly pride.
I will be calling you Hot bod from now on.
that previous comment was from me. I just didn't change the blogger acct before posting. Duh! ha ha
Aaah, but you already do (wink wink).
[This one really is Dylan]
