Ladies, gentlemen, and Juggs...
The idea of multing used to be fun. See, I used to think I had a creative enough mind to come up with some clever characters and get a laugh out of people. Unfortunately, the art has gone from "let's make people laugh" to "let's annoy the piss out of everybody." Sure I'm a hypocrite. After all, I've created my share of mults on this board, so what gives me the right to complain about other peoples' shitty attempts at humor? This does:
I'm out of the multing business for a few reasons, the most significant of which is that as of late I just haven't felt funny or clever. I'll leave the comedy up to the experts on the board and continue to chime in with utter garbage posts as I have done for the last 3+ years. Without further ado, here are my mults along with a brief explanation.
BIG ED - He was the first. I created him as a reference to a joke that Hawkeye and I shared at the Bears outing in October '07. We kept making fun of Ed Hochuli's "BY RULE" catchphrase.
A Bigot - Created to poke fun at bigotry and to show just how stupid bigotry looks to the eyes of those who disagree. I also wanted to show irony (Get it? I'm black, but the character is a white Klansman...how clever!)
Stephen A. Smith - I didn't have a real reason for creating him. I just thought he was a clown and should be made fun of. He has a knack for playing the race card a little too much so of course I played up that aspect in all of his posts. I also played up his "too shouty" conversational style.
Berns - Based on my favorite radio personality Dan Bernstein. I wanted to test myself to see if I could capture the essence of his personality in the posts. I think I did a good job.
Richard Pryor - I had just finished watching Richard Pryor: Here & Now and I just kinda wanted to recycle some of his jokes. The character never caught on. Maybe he was too vulgar.
Mitch Hedberg - Similar to Pryor. I had just listened to one of his CDs and wanted to create a character in tribute. Somehow, many knew it was me right away.
Angry Poster - He was based on a combination of a few of the shouty "seagull" posters here. You know...the guys who just come here to be negative, to insult, and then disappear into the abyss?
Bennett Brauer - Just a tribute to the short-lived Chris Farley SNL character. I killed it after like two posts. I just didn't think it worked.
Jambi the Genie - This one really sucked. I have no idea what I was thinking.
Well, there you have it. These folks had a good run, but it's time to put them out to pasture.
*BUMP*Apparently some of you motherfuckers need a reminder as to which mults belong to me. I hope this settles it. I really do.
