That must have been the week the new season started? I can’t really remember it; therefore, it must have been a killer party.

I wonder if they had to do rock-paper-scissors to see who would ride the horse?

The world is divided into those who like the Three Stooges Bugges, and those who do not. I belong to the “do not” camp, but I would have watched at least one Three Bugges episode.

Probably not an entire feature-length film, mind you.

THE LITTLE POOFY TAIL OMG.

Also, Mrs Bugg’s shotgun looks frightful. I mean, look at the diameter of that barrel! There won’t be any wabbit left!

3 Buggs? 3 Bytes? 3 Billiard Balls? It certainly looks riveting, whatever it is, and the glasses are fetching!

It’s pretty good! When you’re just reading about the American Revolution, it’s easy to forget — because you’re not hearing accents — that most of the people fighting had the same background as the guys on the other side.

I really do think that there is no greater pleasure for Loki than when something in history happens with the word “bug” in it.

If I’m honest, though, it tickles me, too =)

Transcript:

Mr Bugg is rocking a truly epic pair of star-shaped sunglasses, playing a guitar and rocking the hell out, while Mrs Bugg plays the hell out of a tambourine. In the background, a TV displays the video.

The text reads: “Baugest 1, 1981: BTV (BuggTV) begins broadcasting. The first video is Vidibug killed the Radibug bu the “Buggles” (real name).”

 

irresistible

finger guns

Admit it, ladies. You are helpless in the face of some well-executed finger guns.

Transcript:

Mr Bugg stands in front of a television camera, its cord snaking to a monitor display. Mrs Bugg looks on in — horror? A shivery thrill? We may never know. Anyway, she looks like this because Mr Bugg has one hand on his hip, while the other hand is performing a perfect finger-gun. You’ll have to imagine the sound effects.

The text reads: “Bugly 31, 1931: New Bugg, New Bugg experimental television station W2AXBUGG (now known as WCBuggs) begins broadcasts. Years later buggs will use this move for a flirting emote.”

From the look on her face, you’d think Mrs Bugg had never seen Mr Bugg like this before.

Transcript:

Mr Bugg is smiling and waving into a camera, which is connected by wires to a series of wire-strung poles, which connect to a television buggvision set on which Mrs Bugg is watching Mr Bugg smile and wave, presumably in real time. This appears to excite her greatly.

The text reads: “Buggly 1, 1958: The Canadian Buggcasting Corporation links Buggvision across Canada via buggwave.”
